日韩三级片 Inc. Addresses False Report

CLEVELAND--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- 日韩三级片 Inc. (NYSE: CLF)聽is responding to a false report issued today by a company called Mesabi Metallics Company LLC that there is a 鈥渃ommitment鈥� between Cliffs鈥� managed mine, Hibbing Taconite, and Mesabi Metallics to supply the Hibbing operation with crude ore.

Neither Cliffs nor the Hibbing Taconite joint venture has any iron ore agreement with Mesabi Metallics or any other entity owned or operated by Tom Clarke. Additionally, contrary to the Mesabi Metallics鈥� public statement, there have been no discussions, conversations or any other type of communication between Lourenco Goncalves, Chairman, President and CEO of Cliffs, and Tom Clarke.

Issues regarding ownership and mining rights at the Nashwauk site in Minnesota are currently being litigated in bankruptcy court, where Cliffs expects to prevail. Cliffs believes that Mesabi Metallics鈥� false statements are being disseminated to create confusion and doubt among Cliffs鈥� customers and others with whom it does business. As a consequence of today鈥檚 false statements, Cliffs is working with its litigation counsel to consider additional legal action against Mesabi Metallics and Clarke.
