IO#9 Iodine Plant Operating

Iofina plc (AIM:IOF), specialists in the exploration and production of iodine and manufacturers of specialty chemical products, is pleased to announce that the Company's IO#9 IOsorb(R) plant is operational. IO#9 has undergone hydrotesting and has begun flowing brine water through the plant.

IO#9 is the Company's sixth plant now operating in Oklahoma, constructed with a new partner and in a new core area with high oil and gas drilling activity. Iofina expects a rapid payback on the investment in the plant as production from IO#9 will favourably impact the Group's overall production output , with the rates expected to increase by 100MT-150MT of crystalline iodine per year. IO#9 is currently flowing brine water through our system and will shortly concentrate and isolate iodine, as the plant is set to ramp up its production over the coming weeks.

Commenting, President and CEO Dr. Tom Becker, stated: We are delighted to have IO#9 flowing brine water through our system, and meeting our end of Q2 target for the start of production. The new plant is on track to make a significant contribution to our total crystalline Iodine production through the second half of the year."
