Ottawa, Ontario (June 27, 2023) - Northern Shield Resources Inc. ("Northern Shield" or the "Company") [TSX-V: NRN] is pleased to announce that it has identified what it interprets to be sub-crop of a silicified and pyritic unit that resembles the three boulders containing visible gold (“VG”), previously found at the Root & Cellar Gold-Copper Project (“Root & Cellar” or the “Project” or the “Property”). Root & Cellar is located on the Burin Peninsula in southeastern Newfoundland. Northern Shield can earn up to a 100% interest in the Project, which is being explored for epithermal gold-silver and porphyry-copper type mineralization, both associated with highly anomalous tellurium (Te).
