DESCRIPTION

Century Iron Mines Corporation | Corporate Presentation | November 2012 Speaker: Sandy Chim, C.A., Director, President and Chief Executive Officer Company Information: as of Nov 2012 TSX Venture: FER 52-Week high/low: C$0.92-C$2.50 Market Cap: C$97.0m Recent Price: C$1.02 Shares: 94.9 million Fully Diluted: 103.8 million Website: www.centuryiron.com Century Iron is Canada’s largest holder of iron ore land claims in a public company, with interests in several properties in the Provinces of Quebec and Newfoundland & Labrador. Century’s vision is to exploit its large property asset base to become one of the country’s largest iron ore producers. Century has structured a unique strategic formula to pave the way to achieving its vision: It has attracted WISCO and MinMetals, two of the largest Chinese state-owned enterprises, as equity investors and strategic partners (25% and 5% respectively). WISCO is a further 40% JV investor in individual projects, and these partners have committed to 60‑70% off-take agreements for future product. They will also procure to provide up to 70% of production capex on positive feasibility, in the form of nondilutive debt financing for the Canadian company.

Forward Looking StatementExcept for statements of historical fact, this presentation contains certain “forward-looking information”within the meaning of applicable securities law. Forward-looking information is frequently characterized bywords such as “plan”, “project”; “intend”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “estimate” and other similar words, orstatements that certain events or conditions “may” or “will” occur.

Factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include market prices for metals, theconclusions of detailed feasibility and technical analyses, lower than expected grades and quantities ofmineralization and resources, mining rates and recovery rates and the lack of availability of necessarycapital, which may not be available to the Corporation on terms acceptable to it or at all, changes in andthe effect of government policies with respect to mineral exploration and exploitation, the ability to obtainrequired permits, delays in exploration and development projects and the possibility of adversedevelopments in the financial markets generally, potential environmental issues and liabilities associatedwith exploration and development and mining activities. The Corporation is also subject to the specificrisks inherent in the mining business as well as general economic and business conditions. TheCorporation undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking information if circumstances ormanagement’s estimates should change except as required by law.

The Altius iron ore package has been divided into four broad groups based on the geology and iron ore target type: Schefferville: potential for direct-shipping ore

(DSO) comprised of soft red hematite-goethite typical of what was previously mined (and currently being re-opened) in the Schefferville camp; also potential for taconite.

Astray: potential for large resources of taconite as well as DSO comprised of high-grade specularite-rich DSO similar to Sawyer lake.

Menihek: target is large tonnage magnetite-rich taconite similar in structure and geological setting to the large Labmag/Kemag deposits to the north.

Grenville: targets are polydeformed, recrystallized magnetite-specularite taconite akin to the deposits mined by IOCC at Carol Lake.

Pipeline Solution in a Well-Studied Area

A planned 150km slurry pipeline1

between the hydro plant in Radisson and the slurry receptor plant on James Bay.

Based on historic data and compared with similar existing pipeline systems in commercial operations, the operating cost is estimated at US$1.00~1.25 per tonne2

Quebec government plans identify a proposed nearby deep-water port location at Kuujjuaraapik (200km north of Duncan Project) Note: 1) Where the pipeline crosses junctions or rivers, it will be constructed

above-ground with insulation or heat tracing techniques to reduce the negative operational impact of extreme cold. 2) Based on publicly available sources and management calculations.

Shipping Considerations Commercial shipping in Hudson Bay has

been well established for 70+ years (e.g. Port of Churchill) James Bay water depths permit deep-sea

marine terminal for Capesize vessels, 80-100 metres in Hudson Bay. Up to 150 days of ice-free shipping, year-

round shipping with ice class vessels Possible future direct North-West Passage

to Asia

Ongoing Studies

Identified two locations for port site

Extensive shipping study is underway

Partnering with shipping and engineering companies to work out logistic options
