DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES.


Central Iron Ore Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CIO) ("CIO" or "the Company") is pleased to
announce that Diamond drilling has commenced at the Walling Rock Project which
is a part of the Perinvale South Iron Ore Hub. The company is planning to drill
two holes in this programme.


The drilling is to provide samples for initial metallurgical test-work for this
project. The test-work is aimed at prioritising the various options for
upgrading the magnetite ore by a combination of magnetic separation and
screening.


Yilgarn Iron Ore Project Area

The Company now has a total of 16 iron ore tenements covering 1,594km2 that are
located within the Yilgarn Iron Ore Province ("Yilgarn IOP") in Western
Australia, of which ten tenements are granted and six tenements are pending
applications. The Yilgarn IOP is considered highly prospective, given its
history of large-scale iron ore production, with the Cliffs Natural
Resources-owned Koolyanobbing operation (formerly operated by Portman Limited)
currently producing at a rate of approximately 8Mtpa of Direct Shipping Ore
("DSO"). The Yilgarn IOP is increasingly being recognised as an attractive
location for the development of iron ore, given its proximity to rail and access
to ports.
