WOLFDEN REPORTS PROGRESS UPDATE ON PICKETT REZONING APPLICATION

The Maine Land Use Planning Commission (LUPC) has completed additional crucial steps toward a public hearing and a final decision for Wolfden Resources Corp.'s Pickett project rezoning application. The application proposes to rezone a 374-acre parcel of Wolfden's wholly owned 7,135-acre landholdings in the township of T6 R6 Northern Maine, from a general management (M-GN) designation to planned development (D-PD) to allow for the construction, operation and reclamation of a state-of-the-art, small-footprint underground metallic mineral mine in a manner that is fully protective of the environment.

All third party reviews, including other state agencies and independent consultants hired by the LUPC, have now been completed and submitted. In addition, the LUPC has received and accepted two intervenor applications; one is a proponent and the other an opponent. The LUPC has scheduled a prehearing conference with Wolfden and the intervenors (next week) in order to discuss the public hearing process and topics.

"We are very pleased with the continued and steady progress of the rezoning process and the current timeline that could see a final decision by year-end," stated Jeremy Ouellette, vice-president, project development, for Wolfden. "We will respond to the recent third party questions and comments within the LUPC's defined time frame."

The project represents a significant opportunity for new economic growth in an area of the State where much of the economy is based on timber harvesting. Wolfden has been working with residents and businesses in the region via public meetings and information sessions to ensure that the project is responsive to the needs of the region and will benefit the people who live and work there. The project will be developed, operated and reclaimed in accordance with the state's strict and modern mining regulations that ensure full protection of the surrounding environment.

Many of the neighbouring communities including Hersey, Moro Plantation, Patten, Sherman and Stacyville have already held their own town meetings and passed by a public vote, ordinances or resolutions in support of the project. The proponent intervenor is also from the area and is significant employer in the Timber industry. As a lead up to the LUPC public hearing, the company plans to continue to host public information sessions and anyone looking for more information is welcome to stop by the Patten office during normal business hours.

The proposed project is a 1,200-tonne-per-day underground mining operation with a 10-to-15-year mine life, located several miles off of State Route 11, in an area of very low population density, north of the town of Patten. The mine and other supporting infrastructure will require a steady-state work force of roughly 272 direct employees and contractors. The mined ore from the project will be processed at a different location (not in T6 R6) and therefore is outside of the scope of the LUPC rezoning application. Moreover, the technical analysis for each component of the Project and each aspect for the protection of natural resources demonstrate that the Project is feasible and consistent with the values prioritized by the LUPC.

Next steps

Upon completion of the rezoning process, Wolfden plans to commence a feasibility study including the collection of additional environmental baseline data, a drill program to convert inferred to indicated mineral resources, design of the various operational components and a complete estimate of costs. This data will all be used as input to a mine permit application to the Maine Department of Environmental Protection for review and approval under Maine's Chapter 200 regulations.

The rezoning application is subject to and will be reviewed under the commission's Chapter 10 and Chapter 12 rules. Chapter 12 requires a public hearing to be held by the commission in the area of the project before a final decision on the application.

A copy of the petition along with related correspondence with LUPC, and more information about the process is available for download from the LUPC project-specific webpage and the company's website.

Metal prices used for the estimate: US$1.20/lb Zn, $2.50/lb Cu, $1.00/lb Pb, $16.00/oz Ag, and $1,200/oz/Au, using a 7% cutoff grade that equates to an approximate NSR cut-off of $139/tonne at the same metal prices. An average recovery of 75% for all metals was assumed based on preliminary metallurgical testing. The deposit remains open at depth and into the footwall (north) where continued expansion and infill diamond drilling has the potential to further upgrade and expand the mineral resource
