Think of it this way:

The Gent from Samancor presenting at a luncheon sponsored by Noront Resources makes a few primary statements to the Global Mining Community. And more than that - also to the Global Financial Community.

1st. The current BoD at NOT can access Significant Individuals within the Mining/Minerals Industry associated with Global Leaders in Specific Segments of the Industry. A Segment of the Global Mining/Minerals Industry in which Noront Resources wants the Global Financial Industry to be well aware of exactly what it is that they, Noront Resources, have discovered and are working diligently to Prove Up.

2nd. The Major Mining Corporations involved in this Segment of the Global Mining/Minerals Industry are Familiar and Interested enough in what is being Discovered and Proven Up in the JBL, Mc Fauld's Lake Area, "Ring of Fire" that they are willing to Lend Support and/or Implied Confirmation to the Significance of this NEW Mining Area/Camp by allowing one of their Top Chromite Geologists to Speak at an Investment Luncheon sponsored by Noront Resources. In so doing, this Global Leader in the Chromite Mineral Mining Segment, Samoncor, is telling the Global Financial Community that they are more than aware of this NEW Mining Area/Camp. They are willing to be seen as INVOLVED in this NEW Mining Area/Camp.

3rd. The planned presentation at an up coming Global Chromium Minerals Industry Conference in London, UK, by Noront Resources Chief Geology, who happens to be a leading Global Leader/Expert in this type of Geology from both the Geological/Geophysical/Geochemical and Economic Geology aspects of the Industry, is a Presentation that EVERY ONE attending should be sure to take in and with FULL Attention to the Significance of the Content of the Presentation.

4th. As a Leading Global Mining / Minerals Corporation in this Segment of the Global Industry, Samoncor feels that the "Ring of Fire" is Significantly NOTE WORTHY that EVEN in time of Global Economic/Financial Turmoil, THIS "RING OF FIRE" can not and should not be ignored NOW, nor in the Near Future, by anyone who takes themselves seriously as Investors/developers/Operators in the Global Mining Industry. This DUE to the "Ring of Fire" very likely, as in all but confirmed, being an Industry Changing Location, that is HAPPENING NOW, at a VERY TIMELY TIME in a Changing Global Economy.

THUS: Global Financial Community - PAY ATTENTION! Pay Attention NOW!!!
