A description for each of the gold- bearing shear zones and showings is summarized on the Northern Superior's web site at www.nsuperior.com.

Dr. T.F. Morris President and CEO states: "Observations and results derived from this first reconnaissance- style exploration program have demonstrated the potential of the Grizzly property to host significant gold mineralization. The next phase of exploration will include an airborne geophysical survey together with trenching, additional prospecting, and mapping in advance of a first phase drill program."

Northern Superior is currently in the first year of an option agreement to earn a 100% interest in the Grizzly property (see press release, July 16, 2013). The objective of the first phase prospecting and geological mapping program was to enhance the understanding of the geology associated with the known gold occurrences on the property and to identify additional gold mineralization. The Grizzly property is located approximately 60 km west of Chapais (Figure 1), and is accessible year-round from the Poste Abitibi service road by a series of forestry roads, ATV trails, and Hydro Québec power line corridors.
