LUXEMBOURG, LUXEMBOURG--(Marketwired - Aug 28, 2014) - Northland Resources S.A. (OSLO:NAUR)(FRANKFURT:NPK)(OMX:NAURo) - together with its subsidiaries "Northland", "NRSA" or the "Company") announces that its Extraordinary General Meeting ("EGM") was held on Thursday August 28, 2014 in Luxembourg.

At the EGM, all resolutions were approved by the shareholders. The Company's corporate form has been approved by the shareholders to be changed to a so called Societas Europaea or SE-company and the Company's name will therefore be changed from Northland Resources S.A. to Northland Resources S.E.
