NINE MILE METALS LTD. announced it has received Final Approval of its Nine Mile Brook Lens Bulk Sample Permit from the NB Department of Mines Resource Development Branch (NB DEM), for the Nine Mile Brook Lens Bulk Sample Project. In the last month, the permit process included an extensive review by numerous branches of the Provincial Government including Geological Services, Mining Recorder, Forestry, Worksafe NB, Aboriginal Affairs, Archaeological Services and numerous sections of the Department of the Environment and representatives of the local government. The Regional Director of the Department of the Environment also reviewed the request.

Since the program involves the extraction of VMS mineralization, review by the Department of Environment was key due to the presence of conservation forest, wetlands, rivers, and streams in the project area. In addition to providing engineering plans for the proposed work, a reclamation plan was also submitted, and all have been approved. The disclosure of technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with Canadian regulatory requirements as set out in National Instrument 43-101 ?

Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (?NI 43-101?) and reviewed and approved by Gary Lohman, B.Sc., P. Geo., VP Exploration and Director who acts as the Company?s Qualified Person, and is not independent of the Company.
