RECEIPT OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PROCEEDS

As foreshadowed in the quarterly Activities Report that was released on 30 October, 2013 Eastern Iron Limited (ASX:EFE) has now received $690,574 from the partial refund of eligible expenditure from the Australian Government R&D Tax Incentive Program.

During November the Company also received $150,000 from the proceeds of the sale of its entire interest in exploration licences in central western NSW which Eastern Iron had previously explored for iron pisolite. The sale of the interest to its former joint venture partner, 3E Steel Pty Ltd means that Eastern Iron no longer retains any interest in NSW iron pisolite exploration. The transfer of the tenements has also released $130,000 from security deposits to Eastern Iron.

The Company also anticipates receiving a further $300,000 from the Victorian Government as a grant towards completion of studies relating to the provision of infrastructure for the Nowa Nowa project. These funds are payable on completion of the feasibility study and the Company expects that these will be paid in the March quarter 2014.

These funds will be utilised towards the program of work at Nowa Nowa including the feasibility study as scheduled for completion by the end of this year.

INVESTOR INFORMATION

Eastern Iron is investigating the potential for development of a high grade magnetite resource at Nowa Nowa in Eastern Victoria as well as a magnetite processing operation based on magnetite deposits it holds under permit in Central Queensland.
