Outotec to supply a complete zinc roasting line for Votorantim Metais in Peru

OUTOTEC OYJ STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE, OCTOBER 10, 2007 AT 8.30 AM

Outotec has been awarded a contract to supply a new zinc roasting
plant including gas cleaning and sulfuric acid plant on turnkey basis
for Votorantim Metais to be built in Cajamarquilla, Peru. The
contract value exceeds EUR 80 million.

Votorantim Metais, one of the world's largest zinc producers, is
planning to expand its annual zinc production in Peru by 160,000
tonnes to a total of 320,000 tonnes.

Outotec's scope of supply covers the roasting, gas cleaning and acid
plant technologies, engineering, civil works, all process equipment,
construction, supervision services as well as commissioning of the
plant.  The delivery time is two years."This new zinc plant contract demonstrates our long relationship with
Votorantim Metais. In 1977 we built the first zinc roaster in
Cajamarquilla and it is still working at increased capacity", says
Tapani Järvinen, CEO of Outotec, and adds: "In this second delivery
we have a larger scope and are designing the whole roaster train,
which brings additional benefits for the customer, such as improved
energy recovery as well as reduced dust and sulfur dioxide gas
emissions, which enhance the environmental conditions of the plant."
