Alderon’s President and CEO, Tayfun Eldem said,

The filing and acceptance of the Registration Documents mark a significant step forward in advancing our Kami project towards receiving the necessary approvals to allow construction to commence on schedule in late 2013. We included the planned expansion to 16 million tonnes in the Registration Documents based on our confidence in the size and quality of Alderon’s resource combined with a robust iron ore market that will allow Alderon to build a long life mining operation and use the cash flow from its initial phase to fund a rapid expansion.
