Northern Lights Provides Exploration Update and Stakes Additional Claims at The Horetzky Copper Project Located in The Babine Porphyry Copper Belt

An initial review of exploration data pertaining to the Project identified numerous historical geological, geophysical and geochemical data sets that need to be reviewed and interpreted using modern methods to unlock their full potential to help direct the Company's future exploration efforts. To complete this work, Northern Lights has engaged the same group that completed the compilation resulting in American Eagle Gold Corp. (TSXV: AE) optioning the Nak property.

Although at a very early stage, the data review has identified a soil geochemical anomaly with values of up to 2,000 ppm copper and 90 ppm molybdenum coinciding with an area of hornfels, porphyry dykes and a moderate positive aeromagnetic anomaly, located in the northwest corner of the property. A total of 748 hectares were acquired by map staking to cover this area of interest, resulting in an approximate 17% expansion to the property.

Work on permitting will begin shortly, and will include the submission of a Notice of Work to the British Columbia government as well as discussions with local First Nations.

Horetzky Project Highlights:

• Located in the Babine porphyry copper belt which hosts the past producing Bell and Granisle copper-gold mines and several promising advanced stage copper-gold exploration targets including American Eagle's Nak project, Amarc Resources' Duke and Hearne Hill projects and the Morrison deposit of Pacific Booker Minerals.

• Geological similarities to other Babine porphyry copper belt targets include, the presence of an Eocene aged Babine plutonic suite intrusive and likely coeval dykes which together have caused widespread hornfelsing and alteration within surrounding volcanics and sediments, and a mineralization suite that includes chalcopyrite, molybdenite, bornite and chalcocite.

• The Project is host to an approximate 3.0 km copper soil geochemical anomaly, with numerous samples having returned greater than 1,000 ppm copper to a maximum of 10,000 ppm copper, that is open for expansion to the southeast and strongly open to the southwest where it is associated with a strong positive magnetic anomaly possibly representing potassic alteration.

• Although most historical programs failed to analyze for gold, several recent programs have analyzed for gold resulting in rock sample values of up to 1% copper and 277 ppb gold and soil sample values of up to 1,085 ppm copper and 440 ppb gold, suggesting good relatively untested potential for gold exists within this porphyry style system.

• Project is located approximately 95 kilometres northeast of the regional centre of Smithers. It consists of 11 tenures totalling 5,057 hectares and is partially road accessible with active logging cuts located close to the main copper soil geochemical anomaly.

Northern Lights, CEO, Jason Bahnsen commented: "We are happy to see compilation work begin and although early days, it has already resulted in the identification of a prospective area that justified staking. The group we have engaged for the Horetzky compilation has experience in the belt, having also completed the compilation that helped spur American Eagle's interest in the Nak project. We will begin engaging with local First Nations as part of applying for a Notice of Work exploration permit for this exciting target."

Historical Data

The exploration results reported in this release are historical in nature. The Company has not conducted an independent review of the exploration results, nor has it independently analyzed the exploration results to verify them. The Company considers these exploration results relevant, as it will use this data to help guide future exploration programs. The Company also considers the exploration results reliable for these purposes; however, the Company's future exploration work will include verification of the exploration results through additional sampling or other measures the Company deems necessary.

Qualified Person Statement
