 Talvivaara has received an exemption to defer the publication of its January -
                            June 2014 interim report



Talvivaara  Mining Company Plc ("Talvivaara" or the "Company") has received from
the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority an exemption on the basis of Chapter
7, Section  18, Subsection 2 of the Finnish Securities  Markets Act to defer the
publication  of its January - June 2014 interim report until 30 September 2014.
The  Company has received,  on the basis  of the rules  of the stock exchange, a
similar  exemption  from  NASDAQ  OMX  Helsinki  Ltd. The Company has previously
announced  that it would publish  its January - June  2014 interim report on 27
August 2014.



Talvivaara  applied  for  the  exemption  from  the timing of publication of its
January  -  June  2014 interim  report  since Talvivaara's ongoing restructuring
process,  critical liquidity situation and  the resulting uncertainty in respect
of Talvivaara's ability to continue as a going concern as well as the continuing
exploration for a sustainable financial solution for the Talvivaara Group affect
Talvivaara's ability to publish the interim report by the required deadline. The
deadline  set by the District Court of Espoo for the submission of the proposals
for  the  respective  reorganisation  programs  of  Talvivaara and its operating
subsidiary,  Talvivaara  Sotkamo  Ltd,  is  30 September  2014. Talvivaara  will
publish  its January - June 2014 interim  report on 30 September 2014 or, if the
above-mentioned  proposals for reorganisation  plans are submitted  prior to 30
September  2014, on  the  date  of  such  submission. Talvivaara will separately
inform  the investors in advance if the  publication of its January - June 2014
interim report will take place prior to 30 September 2014.

Talvivaara Mining Company is an internationally significant base metals producer
with  its  primary  focus  on  nickel  and  zinc  using  a  technology  known as
bioheapleaching  to extract metals out  of ore. Bioheapleaching makes extraction
of  metals  from  low  grade  ore  economically  viable. The Talvivaara deposits
comprise  one of the largest known sulphide  nickel resources in Europe. The ore
body  is  estimated  to  support  anticipated  production  for  several decades.
Talvivaara has secured a 10-year off-take agreement for 100 per cent of its main
output  of nickel and cobalt to Norilsk Nickel and entered into a long-term zinc
streaming  agreement with Nyrstar. Talvivaara is  listed on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki.
