Slight correction that widening comment was not from a press release but from p. 5 of Noront's MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The drilling during the quarter ending January 31, 2008, confirmed that the Eagle One Ni-Cu-PGE occurrence was a massive sulphide magmatic nickel mineralized body, surrounded in part by net textured sulphides in peridotite within a much larger variably mineralized steeply dipping peridotite that has an 80 degree dip to the west, with a steep plunge along a southerly strike.

Also during this period the Company advised that it had a very rigorous QA/QC program underway, and the first three batches of samples fell within the limits as determined by acceptable industry practice. The Company further announced that it was increasing its land position and staking continues around the “Ring of Fire” and that they had initiated a large airborne survey contract awarded to Aeroquest International Limited, overseen by Scott Hogg and Associates, followed up by a very intense ground geophysical program. The near vertical dipping mineralized Nickel – Copper – PGM Eagle One occurrence averaging 40 to 45 meters in horizontal width remained open along strike, lies conformably near the western edge of a larger peridotite intrusive that has widened to 85 meters in horizontal width at its presently drilled south extent.
