NioGold Mining Corporation is a Canadian mineral exploration company with a primary focus on Gold. The company trades on the TSX Venture Exchange, symbol NOX. NioGold has consolidated a large 70 km² land package in the prolific Malartic and Val-d’Or mining camps, located in the Abitibi region of Quebec. The Abitibi is host to a number of current and former world-class gold producers yielding more than 170M ounces of gold since the early 1900’s. The combined historic production from the Malartic and Val-d’Or camps totals over 25M ounces of gold and presently encompass several active advanced exploration and mine development projects such as Canadian Malartic (Osisko), Kiena (Wesdome), Midway (Northern Star Mining), Lapa/Goldex (Agnico-Eagle) and Lac Herbin (Alexis Minerals).

Advanced-stage exploration in the Malartic & Val-d’Or Gold Camps
NioGold's land holdings include former gold producers and undeveloped gold zones that offer the opportunity to rapidly define mineral resources. The grounds also cover large under-explored sectors located along known mineral trends deemed highly prospective by NioGold for new gold discoveries. The Company is focusing its efforts on the Marban Block property where historic production amounted to 592,000 ounces of gold. The depth extension of the gold system on the Marban Block represents “blue sky” potential as very limited drilling has occurred below 500 m vertical depth. Gold mines in the Malartic and Val-d’Or camps typically extend to depth of over 1,000 m.

Recent Developments: Following the compilation and validation of historic mine and drill hole data and 10,000 m of drilling in 2006, the Company released the first National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource estimates on the Marban Block property. Independent consultants Mine Development Associates estimated Indicated and Inferred resources of 342,000 ounces of gold adjacent to the former Norlartic and Kierens mines. A resource estimate is presently in progress on the North-North Zone located 400 m from the Norlartic mine.

NioGold completed 13,000 m of drilling in 2007 mainly directed at investigating the former Marban mine sector where two holes in 2006 returned impressive gold intersections well above and below the Marban mine workings, including 10.8 g/t Au over 4.0 m. All holes intersected mineralised zones typical of the Marban mine gold ores that returned significant intervals including: 5.4 g/t Au over 4.0 m; 4.4 g/t Au over 7.0 m; 6.2 g/t Au over 3.0 m; 15.5 g/t Au over 1.8 m; 13.7 g/t Au over 1.0 m; 6.5 g/t Au over 3.0 m; 8.3 g/t Au over 1.5 m; 6.5 g/t Au over 2.5 m; 6.1 g/t Au over 6.5 m; 13.1 g/t Au over 1.9 m; 5.1 g/t Au over 6.4 m. The results demonstrate strong potential to outline new gold resources near surface and along the depth extent of the prospective geological units hosting the Marban mine. An additional 10,000 m of drilling is presently on-going that is focusing on the west strike extent of the Marban gold mineralized system where limited drilling has occurred in the past. NioGold has budgeted for 25,000 m of drilling in 2008. The Company’s near term objective in the Malartic camp is to outline resources of over 1M ounces of gold through well focused exploration drilling.

Pump Lake Copper-Gold-Uranium Project
The newly acquired 150 km² Pump Lake property, located 50 km north of the Mt Laurier uranium district, Quebec, is an early stage exploration project that displays characteristics comparable to iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) class of mineral deposits. World-Class examples of IOCG’s are found at Olympic Dam and the Cloncurry district (Australia), Candelaria (Chili), Salobo (Brasil), and the Kiruna district (Sweden). Several copper-gold-silver, iron oxide and uranium occurrences associated to an alkaline intrusive complex are now recognised on the property.

Recent developments: NioGold completed a first phase of exploration that consisted of airborne and ground geophysical surveys, regional geochemical survey, structural lineament study, and field investigation of priority targets. The work resulted in the discovery of several new mineral occurrences over the project area including two uranium prospects, named Roxane and Emma, and an iron-bearing horizon. The Roxane and Emma uranium prospects lie along a newly defined radioactive structural trend where significant values of up to 0.24% U3O8 were obtained. At Roxane, radioactive units were traced over a distance of 2.3 km. Initial sampling of the iron oxide horizon exposed 1 km northeast of the Roxane prospect returned values of up to 40% total iron.
