Oslo, Norway - 23 September 2026
Nordic Mining ASA ("Nordic Mining") has been notified that its EPC contractor,
Nordic Bulk AS, has initiated legal proceedings against Nordic Mining's
subsidiary Engebø Rutile and Garnet AS ("ERG"), claiming payment of
approximately NOK 50 million under the EPC contract for the Engebø Rutile and
Garnet project.
ERG rejects the claim. The claim is partially rejected as unsubstantiated, and
ERG has also withheld payments under the EPC contract pending Nordic Bulks
rectification of defects.
The case will not affect operations at Engebø.
As previously communicated, the ramp-up at Engebø has been slower than planned
due to operational and technical challenges, including equipment delivered under
the EPC contract not performing to the project's design basis.
