Northern Shield Resources Identifies Strong VTEM Conductors at Wabassi Ni-Cu-PGE Property in Northern Ontario; Mobilizes Field Crew

Ottawa, Ontario (November 4th, 2009) – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield") (TSX-V: NRN) is pleased to announce that it has identified three very distinct and significant electromagnetic (EM) anomalies from a VTEM survey previously completed by it at its 100% owned Wabassi property in northern Ontario. The strength of the conductors range from moderate to strong and include several anomalies interpreted as possibly of very strong conductance. A field crew has been mobilized to the property to locate any outcrop and mineralization that may occur over the anomalies. Ongoing studies and interpretation of the Wabassi intrusion by Northern Shield have isolated two layered sequences that will be prospected for disseminated reef-type PGE mineralization and chromite. Disseminated mineralization and chromite are not usually detected by airborne EM surveys.
