Lundin and Inmet Mutually Terminate Arrangement Agreement

TORONTO, CANADA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/29/11 -- Lundin Mining Corporation (TSX: LUN)(OMX: LUMI) ('Lundin Mining') and Inmet Mining Corporation (TSX: IMN) ('Inmet') jointly announced today that they have terminated the arrangement agreement dated January 12, 2011 between them in accordance with its terms.

As a result, the formerly announced Special Meetings of Shareholders of both Inmet and Lundin Mining, scheduled for April 4, 2011, are cancelled. The parties have agreed that Inmet's right to a break fee of $120 million, in accordance with the arrangement agreement, will be preserved in connection with the unsolicited offer of Equinox Minerals Limited to acquire Lundin Mining.

In a joint statement, Mr. Phil Wright, President and CEO of Lundin Mining, and Mr. Jochen Tilk, President and CEO of Inmet, said 'Inmet and Lundin believe that this merger would have created a leading copper producer with benefits for both companies' shareholders.

'We have however agreed to mutually terminate the agreement on the grounds that we could not reach a position that we thought would be supported by both companies' shareholders.

'We continue to think very highly of each other's assets and wish each other well.'
