They said the Islamic Republic told the International Atomic Energy Agency of the plant's existence in a letter to IAEA Director-General Mohamed ElBaradei earlier this week. No further details were immediately available.

Iran was previously known to have one enrichment plant at Natanz, under daily surveillance by IAEA inspectors. Iran is under UN sanctions for refusing to suspend enrichment and failing to clarify suspicions that its nuclear activity is aimed at developing atom bombs, not generating electricity as it says.
