Northern Shield Resources Mobilizes Auger Drill to Gold Prospect in Northern Ontario

Ottawa, Ontario - November 9, 2009 – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield") (TSX-V: NRN) is pleased to announce that it has commenced a deep overburden sampling program at its 100% owned Faint Hope gold prospect located north of Cochrane, Ontario which is being explored for Homestake-style gold mineralization. The property, which consists of 6 contiguous claims, covers what is interpreted from airborne geophysics to be a heavily faulted diorite intrusion and iron-formation sitting in the middle of prominent, east-west regional-scale structural zone. The property is surrounded to the east and west by claims staked by Lakeshore Gold Inc.

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.

Ottawa (September 11, 2009) – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield") (TSX-V: NRN) is pleased to announce the completion of a soil sampling survey over its 100% owned Faint Hope property north of Cochrane, Ontario, which is being explored for Homestake-style gold mineralization. The property, which consists of 6 contiguous claims, covers what is interpreted from airborne geophysics to be an iron-formation intruded by a diorite or granite body that sits in the middle of a prominent, east-west regional fault zone. Northern Shield’s property is surrounded to the east and west by claims staked by Lake Shore Gold Corp.

“We are very encouraged by these early results and are currently evaluating certain possibilities to advance this very interesting gold prospect while maintaining our focus at Highbank Lake and our other PGE projects,” said Northern Shield’s president and CEO, Ian Bliss.

Northern Shield Resources Identifies PGE-Ni-Cu Mineralization on New Property in Western Ontario

Northern Shield Resources Identifies PGE-Ni-Cu Mineralization on New Property in Western Ontario

Ottawa (September 4, 2009) – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield") (TSX-V: NRN) is pleased to announce that it has identified significant PGE-Ni-Cu mineralization on a new property, known as Q-1, it has acquired, through staking, in western Ontario.

Northern Shield is in the process of conducting reconnaissance and due diligence on numerous potential PGE and Ni-Cu- PGE targets and occurrences in Ontario and Quebec as it awaits further results and exploration at Highbank Lake, Wabassi and Faint Hope. A grab sample collected during reconnaissance of one of these occurrences assayed 1.1 g/t Pt, 1.4 g/t Pd, 0.7% Cu and 0.1% Ni. The sample was collected from a coarse-grained pyroxenite dyke, sill or conduit. Follow-up sampling and mapping will commence next week. The property is located near the Quetico fault and within a few kilometers of a highway. The Quetico Fault has recently become important to PGE exploration as Magma Metals Ltd’s. PGE discovery near Thunder Bay, Ontario is located along this fault zone. While Northern Shield continues to acquire and seek new PGE-Ni-Cu properties and is very encouraged by the initial results from the Q-1 property, it remains focused on its flagship Highbank Lake PGE project in northern Ontario.

Ottawa (June 25, 2009) – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield") (TSX-V: NRN) is pleased to announce that it has completed an airborne VTEM over its Faint Hope gold project in northeastern Ontario. The survey was completed by Geotech Airborne Ltd. at 150 metre spaced lines and totaled 171 line kilometers. Further modeling of the data is underway.

The property is being explored for Homestake or Eleonore-style gold mineralization and is located on an unexplored regional lineament which may be a continuation of the Casa-Berardi Fault. A very distinct gold anomaly occurs in till samples directly south of the property in association with arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite (copper). Northern Shield also intersected several gold anomalous boulders while drilling a kimberlite target nearby in 2005.

Northern Shield Commences Drilling at Eastbank, northern Ontario

Northern Shield Commences Drilling at Eastbank, northern Ontario

Ottawa (June 16, 2009) – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield") (TSX-V: NRN) is pleased to announce that it has commenced a diamond drill program at its 100% owned Eastbank Property in the James Bay Lowlands of northern Ontario. The 1,200 metre program is designed to confirm management’s interpretation that the 750 square kilometer property is underlain by the ultramafic portion (Critical Zone) of the Highbank Lake Intrusive Complex that extends eastward from the Highbank property. A magnetic trend, that can be traced on airborne geophysics for 80-100 kilometers and, may represent the ultramafic layers, will be the main focus of the drilling. PGE reefs are generally contained within, or just above, the ultramafic portion of layered intrusive complexes.

The Highbank Lake and Eastbank properties are being explored for reef-type PGE mineralization and are located up-ice from till samples where grains of nickel, copper and platinum minerals as well as numerous boulders of chromitite have been previously discovered by Northern Shield.

Northern Shield Announces VTEM Results from Highbank Lake and Drill Plan for Eastbank PGE Properties in Northwestern Ontario

Northern Shield Announces VTEM Results from Highbank Lake and Drill Plan for Eastbank PGE Properties in Northwestern Ontario

Ottawa (March 13, 2009) – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield") (TSX-V: NRN) is pleased to announce the results of an airborne VTEM survey conducted over a portion of the Highbank Lake property last November and funded by Impala Platinum Holdings Ltd. under the terms of its option agreement with Northern Shield.

The survey was completed by Geotech Airborne Ltd. at 150 meter spaced lines and totaled 600 line kilometers. Further modeling of the data is underway; however, a distinct conductor is clearly apparent in the northern portion of the survey block. The shape, signature and location of this conductor matches Northern Shield’s interpretation as to where the ultramafic sequence of rocks (“Critical Zone”) that would host any PGE-bearing reef would project to, or near surface. The anomaly is located up-ice from till samples where grains of nickel, copper and platinum minerals as well as numerous boulders of chromitite have been previously discovered by Northern Shield.

Northern Shield Provides Encouraging Update on Eastbank.

Northern Shield Provides Encouraging Update on Eastbank.

Ottawa (September 16, 2008) – Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield") (TSX-V: NRN) is pleased to announce an encouraging update regarding its 100% owned Eastbank Property in the James Bay Lowlands of northwestern Ontario. Microprobe analysis of 15 chromite grains recovered from a previously completed till sampling program at Eastbank (see press release dated April 29, 2008) show four of these grains to have high chrome content and exceptionally high chrome to iron ratios. Chrome grades range from 35 to 53.6% Cr2O3 with Cr:Fe ratios ranging from 1.2:1 to 3.6:1.

The grades and ratios of all 15 grains are not only indicative of chromite sourced from mafic-ultramafic layered intrusions but the very high Cr:Fe ratios suggest some of the chromite is coming from reefs in the lowermost or outer levels of a layered intrusion. This is supported by the identification of several serpentinized peridotite fragments in the same samples from which the chromite grains were recovered. Chromite reefs with Cr:Fe ratios greater than 1.8 : 1 are sought after for their chrome metal potential. Chromite reefs are also a strong indicator of the PGE potential of a layered intrusion.
