Lundin Mining Announces Declaration of Dividend

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jul 26, 2017) - Lundin Mining Corporation (TSX:LUN)(OMX:LUMI) ("Lundin Mining" or the "Company") today announced that its Board of Directors has declared a dividend of CAD$0.03 per share, payable on September 20, 2017, to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 8, 2017. This dividend qualifies as an 'eligible dividend' for Canadian income tax purposes. The declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
