POLYMET REPORTS ACCOMPLISHMENTS AT ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS’MEETING

SHAREHOLDERS REELECT DIRECTORS

St. Paul, Minn., July 16, 2015 – PolyMet Mining Corp. (TSX: POM; NYSE MKT: PLM) is pleased to report 65.39 percent of the eligible shares were represented at its Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders held on July 15, 2015 in Toronto, Ontario and all motions put forward by the Board of Directors to the shareholders at or represented at the meeting were passed, including reelection of all eight directors.

Following the formal meeting, Jon Cherry, president and CEO updated shareholders on progress since the last shareholders’ meeting and goals and objectives for the next twelve months.

Key Accomplishments

• Completion of preliminary final EIS
• Schedule for final EIS publication and completion of the State adequacy determination http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/input/environmentalreview/polymet/index.html
• Drafting of key Mine, Air and Water Permits for submission to the State
• $30 million loan facility with Glencore AG, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Glencore plc.
• Expanded investment research coverage

Cherry noted that publication of the schedule for completion of the environmental review was itself a major milestone and laid the path to the start of construction. He also told shareholders that PolyMet’s share price had outperformed the S&P/TSX Global Mining Index by approximately 60 percent over the year.

Key Goals & Objectives

• Publication of the final EIS in the Federal Register and the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board Monitor in early November 2015 and final decision on the adequcy of the final EIS early Februuary 2016
• Preparation and submission of draft permit applications with decision on state permits within 150 days of acceptance of applications, under state guidelines
• Records of Decision on the federal 404 Wetland Permit and the Land Exchange.
• Completion of the Definitive Cost Estimate and Project Update
• Completion of construction finance plan including commitment of debt prior to the issuance of permits but subject to typical conditions precedent, such as receipt of permits.
• Completion of project construction implementation plan
• Start construction

Cherry stated, “The final EIS represents more than a decade of detailed review and analysis of the potential environmental impacts of the NorthMet Project and the Company’s plans to mitigate those impacts. Reusing existing facilities and infrastructure minimizes the new impacts and addresses legacy issues associated with historic iron ore mining.” Cherry concluded by thanking all of the stakeholders – investors, staff, contractors, and the local community for their continued support. He also thanked the government agencies and their contractors tasked with completing the environmental review for their hard work and efforts to ensure that the final EIS is thorough and complete, providing the legal basis for issuance of permits to construct and operate the NorthMet Project.
