IH MVP Contest News Alert: NBRI
North Bay Resources Inc. (NBRI) Reports Assays of 5.68 g/t Gold and 0.427 g/t Platinum From Fraser River JV Project The Fraser River Property is located near Lytton in south-central British Columbia, Canada, and covers approximately 4.5 kilometers of placer claims along the Fraser River. During the first week of March 2012, our JV partner, Devlin's Bench Mining Ltd and P. Wright Contracting Ltd ("PWC") conducted an exploration and soil sampling program on the Fraser River property under the supervision of Ms. Agathe Bernard, B.Sc. to further block out and assess the deposit area. The sampling occurred at the margins along a boulder area that runs north to south, with each sample consisting of 0.3 cubic yards of material. The samples were collected and shipped to ALS Labs in Vancouver for analysis, and the assay results just received from the first 7 samples analyzed are as follows: Subsequent to the March work program, a follow up site visit by PWC to further survey and map the deposit resulted in the discovery of additional target zones in the northern section of the property that were previously not considered to be mineable, and which appear to be of significant size. PWC President Pete Wright commented on this new discovery, "We are very excited to find after in-depth study and surveys that the north end of the property has a significant amount of yardage along the river, and which is now a crucial economic part of the off-reserve holdings of North Bay in the area. We estimate that it comprises at least several hundred thousand more yards of pay material that is the same bench, same gravel, and same elevation on the river as our other targets in the area."

The Company notes that these samples were all unconcentrated, consisting only of raw in-place bank material. As such, these raw samples represent what would be expected from one bank cubic yard of gravel. In addition, the Company notes that metal values in placer deposits often increase substantially with increase in depth towards bedrock, which in the case of the Fraser is expected to be approximately 75 meters below the surface. On a per yard basis, these results are significantly higher than the assays achieved by the Company in 2009 from an area further north of the current work area, and confirms our belief that the Fraser River project is an economical resource that can be mined profitably for many years.
