Nuinsco Resources to begin diamond drilling at Devlin

DIAMOND DRILLING TO BEGIN IMMINENTLY AT CBAY'S DEVLIN PROPERTY IN CHIBOUGAMAU PROGRAM TARGETS RESOURCE TONNES TO ADD VALUE IN COPPER-GOLD MINING CAMP

Diamond drilling is scheduled to begin imminently at Nuinsco Resources Ltd.'s Devlin property in Chibougamau, central Quebec. The drill program is designed with the objective of establishing a National Instrument 43-101-compliant copper resource at Devlin.

The Devlin property, held by CBay Minerals Inc., which is 50 per cent owned by Nuinsco and 50 per cent by Ocean Partners Investments Ltd., is an easily accessible, partially developed high-grade copper deposit that is well situated to provide copper ore to CBay's wholly owned Copper Rand mill. Devlin is located about 10 kilometres west of CBay's 100-per-cent-owned, partially developed Corner Bay copper deposit and about 40 kilometres by road from the Copper Rand mill and tailings management facility located near the town of Chibougamau.

An estimated 15 drill holes will be collared to evaluate the mineralized domain for volume, grade and continuity. A bulk sample was extracted at Devlin; however, no NI 43-101 mineral resource currently exists. By focusing on increasing tonnes through drilling, the company feels this program has the potential to add value to all of CBay's assets in Chibougamau.

A 350-metre decline and over 600 metres of exploration drifts have been developed on the project by past operators. In 1982, a bulk sample of 16,330 tonnes grading 3.72 per cent copper was processed at a mill in Chibougamau with recoveries reported in the mid-90-per-cent range. Using a 2.5-per-cent-copper cut-off, Watts Griffiths and McOuat Ltd. (WGM) estimated Devlin to contain proven and probable reserves of 146,000 tonnes at 3.38 per cent copper, measured and indicated resources of 149,700 tonnes grading 3.95 per cent copper and inferred resources of 90,700 tonnes grading 3.69 per cent copper. (These are historic results reported by WGM in 1995. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources; the issuer is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources.) The Devlin deposit, as defined to date, is within 100 metres of surface.

CBay is one of the largest landowners in Quebec's prolific Chibougamau mining camp. Approximately 75 per cent of all copper and gold produced from the Chibougamau camp was mined from CBay's current land position. The additional claims (as reported in news release dated Oct. 3, 2014) will enhance and protect the Devlin project, which could be a near-term producing asset in the camp, along with the Corner Bay and Perch River projects also owned by CBay.

We seek Safe Harbor.
