TRADING IN KWG RESOURCES SHARES HALTED FOR THIRD-PARTY ANNOUNCEMENT

Trading in KWG Resources Inc.'s shares was halted for an announcement this morning by the General Chairperson's Association (GCA), representing unionized employees at the Ontario Northland Transportation Commission (ONTC).

The GCA has announced a revitalization plan for ONTC that includes the proposed construction of a rail link to the Ring of Fire mineral deposits in the James Bay Lowlands, where KWG has extensive claims.

The new railway will form part of the Ring of Fire mining infrastructure and will be located within mining claims held by Canada Chrome Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of KWG. The GCA's proposal calls for the railway and other assets of the provincially held ONTC, along with the new Ring of Fire railway, to be transferred to a new port authority to be operated under the Canada Marine Act.

Canada Chrome has made a significant investment to study and secure mining claims.

KWG intends to continue discussions with the GCA and other stakeholders to advance this initiative, with the goal of creating the transportation links necessary for mining to proceed in the Ring of Fire and thereby deliver new economic and job opportunities in Northern Ontario. Other stakeholders involved in the discussions include first nations communities and Nipissing-Timiskaming MP Jay Aspin.
