North Country Gold Updates Three Bluffs Resource

2013-04-23 12:25:00

16.4% Increase in Inferred Ounces � Additional Mineral Potential Identified to Depth

April 23, 2013, Edmonton, Alberta � North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V; NCGDF: OTCQX) (“North Country” or the “Company”) today announced an updated mineral resource estimate for its 100% owned Three Bluffs Gold Project located northeast of Baker Lake, Nunavut. The revised estimate incorporates 12 deep, wide-spaced drill holes completed during 2012. The new estimate comprises an Indicated Mineral Resource of 4.32 million tonnes grading 4.91 g/t Au for 683,000 oz Au and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 5.52 million tonnes grading 5.43 g/t Au for 965,000 oz Au. The updated Three Bluffs resource has increased the estimate by 136,000 ounces Au (or 16.4%) in the inferred category.

“We have significantly increased the Three Bluffs resource estimate based on our modest 2012 drilling program”, stated John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold, “While continuously adding tonnes at grades that may support underground mining scenarios, we have developed a model that clearly demonstrates the Three Bluffs gold resource is a large and open ended system with significant exploration potential for further increases. It is our mission to persevere in delivering shareholder value by unlocking this potential in the near term”.

A total of 17 domains utilized in grade estimation of the 0.50g/t wireframes and 16 domains for the 1.0 g/t wireframes, Au capping by domain from 75 g/t Au to 30 g/t Au
Block grade estimation of 0.50 g/t and 1.00 g/t wireframes utilizing ID3 interpolation
Block grade estimation for 0.50 g/t and 1.0 g/t wireframes performed by successive search ellipsoids with first pass of 15m x 15m x 5m, second pass 30m x 30m x 10m and third pass 75m x 75m x 20m
Open pit resources (inside whittle) are estimated at a pit discard grade of 1.35 g/t Au with 93% Au recovery utilizing a long term gold price of US$1,500 per ounce, whittle pit shell on the 0.50g/t block model was utilized to constrain the open-pit resources
Underground resources constrained from 1.0 g/t wireframe block model below the optimized Whittle pit using a 2.5 g/t block cut-off
Numbers may not add-up due to rounding
Prior resources for Three Bluffs were completed by Roscoe Postle Associates Ltd in April of 2012 (see press release dated April 4th, 2012 and the Technical Report on the Three Bluffs Project, Nunavut Territory, Canada filed on Sedar, May 18, 2012)
Mineral resources, which are not mineral reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability
The quantity and grade of reported Inferred resources are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to classify these Inferred resources as Indicated or Measured, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in upgrading them to an Indicated or Measured category
There are no known legal, political, environmental, or other risks that could materially affect the potential development of the mineral resources

Resource Methodology

The 2012 Three Bluffs Resource estimate has been prepared by Dave Rennie, P.Eng. with independent resource consultants,� RPA Inc., in accordance with Canadian regulatory requirements set out in NI 43-101 and CIM resource definitions.

The Three Bluffs resource is based on drilling completed between 1994 and 2012, with drill hole spacing ranging from 100m x120m down to 30m x 30m in denser drilled portions of the deposit. Wireframes were constructed of correlatable mineralized envelopes utilizing cut-off grades of 0.50 g/t Au and 1.0g/t Au.� Seventeen individual wireframes were constructed for the 0.50 g/t model and sixteen individual wireframes were constructed for the 1.0 g/t model. Grade capping levels were determined separately for each domain.

Inverse distance cubed (ID3) interpolation using three progressive search volumes (15m x 15m x 5m, 30m x 30m x 10m, and 75m x 75m x 20m) on 1.5 metre down hole composites were utilized to assign gold grades to 10m x 10m x 2m blocks. Resource classification was applied using a combination of distance to nearest composite, number of holes used in the estimate, and manual adjustment based on inspection of the blocks.� Inferred was provisionally assigned to any block within 75m of the nearest composite.� Blocks within 30m of the nearest composite (generally within the 30m x 30m drill pattern), for which at least two drill holes contributed composites, were provisionally assigned to the Indicated category.� These provisional assignments were reviewed in section and plan and manually adjusted to eliminate isolated small groups of unrealistically classified blocks.

To determine the open pit resources, a Whittle pit shell was generated on the 0.50 g/t Au model. The analysis utilized a long-term gold price of US$1,500 per ounce, process gold recovery of 93%, a calculated discard grade of 1.35 g/t Au, and pit batter angles of 50 degrees. The pit discard grade is based on break-even costs of mining, milling and G &A per tonne converted to grams/tonne Au at the gold price used for the optimization.

The underground portion of the resource was estimated from the 1.0 g/t Au model on that portion of the resource which lies below the pit limits, utilizing a block cut-off grade of 2.5 g/t Au.

Additional Mineral Potential at Three Bluffs

As demonstrated by the 2012 drilling, mineralization at Three Bluffs remains open to depth (see press releases dated April 26, May 24, and June 4th, 2013), which brings significant upside potential for increasing underground resources. Detailed geological compilation indicates that four high-grade shoots project to depth below the current level of drilling.

Table 2. Additional Mineral Potential at Three Bluffs

	Tonnage (Million)	Grade (Au g/t)	Ounces (Au)
Three Bluffs	4.50 to 7.50	3.8 to 7.3	550,000 to 1,736,000

*The potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.

The approximate grades and tonnages have been determined by taking the average underground inferred resource grade (5.48 g/t Au) plus or minus 30 percent and considering the cumulative strike extent of the four high grade shoots, average widths, and a 300 to 500 metre depth extension below existing resources.

Additional exploration targets comprising potentially open-pittable zones remain to be tested along strike of the main Three Bluffs trend and significant potential for parallel zones of mineralization remains in flanking iron formations.

North Country Gold Clarifies Technical Disclosure

2013-03-22 13:54:38

March 22, 2013, Edmonton, Alberta – North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V; NCGDF: OTCQX) (“North Country” or the “Company”) today announces that the Company has completed a review of technical disclosure contained on its website and investor presentation materials disseminated on or about January 30 and 31, 2013 in conjunction with the AMEBC Mineral Exploration Roundup (the “Roundup”) held in Vancouver, British Columbia. Pursuant to this review, the Company wishes to clarify and/or retract certain of its disclosure on its Three Bluffs Project in Nunavut.

Resource disclosure as set out in the table below was included on the Company’s website and investor presentation materials, along with unclassified depictions of total tonnes of mineralization and total contained ounces at various cut-off grades, which incorrectly combined inferred and indicated resources. These depictions were developed for planning and comparison purposes in consideration of the exploration potential for the mineralized envelope of the project and were not intended to disclose a material change in the resource estimate for the Three Bluffs Project.

In particular, on Slide 14 of the slide deck from these materials, reference was made to a global block model estimate of tonnes and grade using 0.50 grams gold per tonne as a block cut-off. Although this figure was derived from data underlying sensitivity tables contained in the Company’s current independent technical report, these unclassified depictions were not in accordance with NI 43-101 and should not be misconstrued as a material change in the resource estimate. Therefore, the Company hereby retracts its previous disclosure in Slide 14 and advises the public not to rely on these estimates. The Company has amended its presentation slide deck as follows: removal of unclassified totals from Slide 13 entitled “Three Bluffs 43-101 Resource Estimate – April 2012” and removal of Slides 14 and 15 entitled “Global Block Model” and “Three Bluffs - High Grade Resource”.

Further, the Company’s website included a table disclosing the “Top Ten Drill Holes” from the Three Bluffs Project which ranked previously disclosed drill results in terms of a grade thickness calculation using intercept widths rather than true thickness. Although the primary disclosure of drill results did not include grade thickness and this calculation was utilized only as an informal ranking method for comparison purposes, the use of intercept widths is potentially misleading in that it may overstate the actual grade thickness relative to estimates of true thickness. Therefore, the Company has removed the table from its website.

For greater clarity, the Company’s NI 43-101 disclosure of indicated and inferred resources for the potential pit and underground deposits of the Three Bluffs Project as set out in the table below is supported by an independent technical report prepared for the Company by Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. dated May 18, 2012 and filed on SEDAR, which is not affected by these retractions and remains unchanged.

North Country Identifies Emerald Occurrence At Anuri

2012-10-16 13:19:00

Research Initiated to Evaluate Potential of new Emerald Discovery

October 16, 2012, Edmonton, Alberta – North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V; NCGDF: OTCQX) (“North Country” or the “Company”) today announces that it has identified emerald mineralization within drill core at the Anuri prospect within its 100% owned Committee Bay Greenstone Belt Property. The occurrence will be the focus of a research project at the University of British Columbia under the direction of Professor Lee Groat, which will investigate the origin of the emeralds and will form the basis of an exploration strategy to fully assess the potential for discovery of economic emerald mineralization in the Committee Bay greenstone belt.

“The discovery of emeralds at Anuri is only the fourth documented occurrence in Canada”, stated John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold, “North Country is pleased to have one of the world’s foremost emerald experts, Professor Lee Groat, initiate research on the emerald mineralization in the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt and we are intrigued by the implications of further exploration and the potential for more discoveries of economic deposits.”

Professor Lee Groat of the University of British Columbia comments “The discovery of emerald mineralization at North Country Gold's Anuri property is exciting for a number of reasons. Emerald is extremely rare because it requires unusual geologic and geochemical conditions to form, and evaluating these conditions will provide important clues to the genesis of the Anuri prospect as a whole. We at UBC are excited to be working with North Country Gold on characterizing the world's most recently discovered emerald occurrence.”

Emerald crystals were initially noted by a North Country Gold geologist when investigating highly elevated beryllium values contained within potassic altered Prince Albert Group komatiites from drill core at the Anuri prospect which North Country was evaluating as a gold target. Preliminary evaluation of the crystals by Professor Lee Groat utilizing X-ray diffraction and electron microprobe have confirmed that the crystals are beryl and that the dominant chromophore is chromium with essentially no vanadium.

The Anuri occurrence is highly prospective for gold-silver mineralization and is characterized by a 0.5km-wide by 1.5km-long zone of intensely altered and sulphidized mafic and ultramafic volcanic float boulders. Sampling of this boulder train has produced high-grade gold and silver values up to 291.2 g/t Au and 1,769.5 g/t Ag, 20.68 g/t Au and 333.0 g/t Ag, and 14.44 g/t Au and 394.0 g/t Au. Initial drill testing intersected gold and silver mineralization, with elevated copper, bismuth, lead, zinc and cadmium values with hole 06AR007B intersecting 3.75 g/t Au, 63.7 g/t Ag, 0.75% Cu and 158.2 ppm Bi over 10.21 metres. Strong to intense potassic alteration along with silicification and sulphidation was encountered in the mafic and ultramafic stratigraphy.

The distribution of Prince Albert Group komatiites in the Committee Bay greenstone belt is extensive forming a 25 kilometre by 10 kilometre belt in the southwest portion of the area. Potassic alteration has been identified throughout the area in association with broad zones of shearing and emplacement of late granitoid intrusions, which has implications for the widespread occurrence of emerald mineralization in the area.

The results of the research into the genesis of the emeralds will provide key information to develop an exploration model to fully evaluate the potential of this exciting new discovery in the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt.

Three Bluffs Gold Deposit

The Three Bluffs gold project is a structurally controlled lode gold system hosted within oxide facies iron formation and greywackes. The deposit currently hosts a NI43-101 compliant resource of 4.30 Mt at 4.90 g/t gold for 678,000 ounces gold (indicated) and 4.53Mt at 5.69 g/t gold for 829,600 ounces gold (inferred). To date, gold mineralization has been drill tested at shallow levels along a strike length of 4.1 kilometres. The deposit has been most extensively drilled over the eastern 1.3 kilometres of the trend where drilling up to 2011 reached depths of 300 metres below surface. In the spring of 2012, North Country completed 7,005 metres of diamond core drilling in twelve holes to depth in the eastern part of the deposit, which extended the mineralized envelope to depths of 500 metres below surface with mineralization remaining strong and open to depth. This new drilling is expected to result in an increase in the underground inferred resource of the deposit.

Geological modeling of the Three Bluffs gold system has identified several controls on high-grade mineralization including steep east plunging shoots and shallow east plunging fold hinges within the iron formation. In 2010, North Country Gold completed a Quantec Titan 24 geophysical survey over the Three Bluffs project, which indicated that known gold zones at shallow to intermediate depths display an excellent correlation with DC-resistivity lows. These resistivity lows extend to least 500 metres depth over much of the surveyed area, and the correlation of gold mineralization with the resistivity lows to depth has been confirmed by high grade intersections to these depths within the 2012 drill program.

The Three Bluffs Gold Deposit was ranked number 31 of 250 undeveloped gold deposits globally by grade, which contain greater than one million ounces of gold in a recent compilation by Natural Resource Holdings. From an initial list of 1,896 companies, Natural Resource Holdings was able to identify 212 entities (Public, Private and Government Sponsored Corporations) that own 439 gold deposits hosting over 1,000,000 ounces in all categories representing a total of 3,015,542,164 ounces of gold.

North Country Gold Aquires Key Strategic Claims

2012-10-10 14:19:00

Eight Additional Claims in Three Bluffs, West Plains and Pickle Target Areas

October 10, 2012, Edmonton, Alberta � North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V; NCGDF:OTCQX) (NCG or the “Company”) today announces that it has acquired eight claims totaling 19,369 acres (7,838 hectares) from Bruce Goad located in key strategic positions adjacent to the Company’s Three Bluffs and West Plains target areas.

“We are very pleased to have added these claims to our property portfolio”, stated John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold,. “North Country believes that the potential for discovery of new ounces on these claims is excellent, and given the proximity to demonstrated resources and mineralization at Three Bluffs and West Plains respectively, this will provide the Company with additional opportunities in developing the gold potential along the belt” added Mr. Williamson.

The Wrench Group comprises of five claims covering approximately 12,913 acres (5,226 hectares) located immediately east of the Company’s flagship project, the Three Bluffs deposit, which currently hosts a NI43-101 compliant resource of 4.30 Mt at 4.90 g/t gold for 678,000 ounces gold (indicated) and 4.53Mt at 5.69 g/t gold for 829,600 ounces gold (inferred). The Wrench claims are underlain by a package of banded iron formation, which is the most significant host rock at Three Bluffs. Rock chip sampling by the previous operators returned six assays greater than 1.00 g/t Au including a high of 100.45 g/t Au. The claims also host numerous coincident magnetic-HLEM geophysical anomalies primarily in areas of sparse bedrock exposure, a feature that characterizes economic mineralization at Three Bluffs.

The West Group comprises of a single claim covering approximately 1,291 acres (523 hectares) located immediately north of North Country’s West Plains project where previous drilling has returned significant gold intersections including 6.04 g/t Au over 36.77 metres and 13.14 g/t over 8.00 metres. No bedrock exposure is present on the West claims, however a coincident magnetic-EM anomaly identical and parallel to an anomaly hosting the West Plains iron formation, hosts mineralization that transects the claim and constitutes a drill-ready target for North Country.

The Pickle Group comprises of two claims totaling approximately 5,165 acres (2,090 hectares) located five kilometres north of West Plains. The claims cover a package of thick, poorly exposed, folded banded iron formations with a one kilometre wide associated magnetic high. Historic rock chip sampling in the mid 1990’s returned gold values of up to 8.00 g/t Au.

Under terms of the deal, North Country Gold will acquire the claims by completing the necessary work to bring the claims to lease status and granting Goad a 1.5% Net Smelter Return (NSR). At any point in time within two years of commencement of commercial production, North Country Gold will have the right to buy all or a portion of the NSR Royalty for the sum of $2,000,000 for each one‑third (0.5%) of the NSR Royalty.�

Three Bluffs Gold Deposit

Geological modeling of the Three Bluffs gold system has identified several controls on high-grade mineralization including steep east plunging shoots and shallow east plunging fold hinges within the iron formation. In 2010, North Country Gold completed a Quantec Titan 24 geophysical survey over the Three Bluffs project, which indicated that known gold zones at shallow to intermediate depths display an excellent correlation with DC-resistivity lows. These resistivity lows extend to least 500 metres depth over much of the surveyed area, and the correlation of gold mineralization with the resistivity lows to depth has been confirmed by high grade intersections to these depths within the 2012 drill program.

The Three Bluffs Gold Deposit was ranked number 31 of 250 undeveloped gold deposits globally by grade, which contain greater than one million ounces of gold in a recent compilation by Natural Resource Holdings. From an initial list of 1,896 companies, Natural Resource Holdings was able to identify 212 entities (Public, Private and Government Sponsored Corporations) that own 439 gold deposits hosting over 1,000,000 ounces in all categories representing a total of 3,015,542,164 ounces of gold.� Please click here to go to the direct site.

Notes:

Resource estimates were prepared by Dave Rennie, P.Eng., an independent Qualified Person with resource consultants Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. in accordance with Canadian regulatory requirements set out in NI 43-101 and CIM resource definitions.

Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Mineral resource estimates do not account for mineability, selectivity, mining loss and dilution. These mineral resource estimates include inferred mineral resources that are normally considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is also no certainty that these inferred mineral resources will be converted to measured and indicated categories through further drilling, or into mineral reserves, once economic considerations are applied.

Three Bluffs Gold Deposit
The Three Bluffs gold project is a structurally controlled lode gold system hosted within oxide facies iron formation and greywackes. The deposit currently hosts a NI 43-101 compliant resource of 4.30 Mt at 4.90 g/t gold for 678,000 ounces gold (indicated) and 4.53Mt at 5.69 g/t gold for 829,600 ounces gold (inferred).� Prior to 2012, gold mineralization was drill tested at shallow levels to evaluate near surface exploration potential along a strike length of 4.1 kilometres. The eastern 1.3 kilometres of the trend is currently the focus of exploration for deeper, high-grade resources.� Recent drilling has reached depths of 500 metres below surface with mineralization remaining strong and open to depth. Geological modeling of the Three Bluffs gold system has identified several controls on high-grade mineralization including steep east plunging shoots and shallow east plunging fold hinges within iron formation. In 2010, NCG completed a Quantec Titan 24 geophysical survey over the Three Bluffs project which indicated that known gold zones at shallow to intermediate depths displays an excellent correlation with DC-resistivity lows. These resistivity lows extend to least 500 metres depth over much of the surveyed area, and recent deep drilling at Three Bluffs has confirmed the spatial association of the DC resistivity lows with gold mineralization persists to depth.

North Country Drills High Grades, 200m Below Previous Holes At Three Bluffs

2012-04-26 14:09:00

Hole 12TB134 intersects multiple zones including 6.74g/t Au over 17.4m

April 26, 2012, Edmonton, Alberta – North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V) (NCG or the “Company”) today announces initial results from the 2012 spring drilling program, at its 100% owned Three Bluffs Gold Project in the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt located northeast of Baker Lake, Nunavut, Canada. Deep drilling at the eastern end of the deposit has extended the depth of gold mineralization by a further 200 metres. Hole 12TB134 intersected multiple zones, including 6.74 g/t Au over 17.4 metres, indicating significant expansion potential below current resources. Last month, the Company announced a NI43-101 compliant resource of 4.30 Mt at 4.90 g/t gold for 678,000 ounces gold (indicated) and 4.53Mt at 5.69 g/t gold for 829,600 ounces gold (inferred) at the project.

“The initial results of our 2012 spring drill program have yielded positive indications that high grade gold mineralization persists to at least 500 metres depth from surface and remains strong and open”, stated John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold, “Our 2012 drill program will continue to explore the deeper potential at Three Bluffs with a goal of rapidly expanding the updated resources we announced last month.”

Drill hole 12TB134 tested an area 200m below drill hole 05TB038 which returned 36.25 g/t Au over 4.71m and prior to this program was one of the deepest drill holes at Three Bluffs. The following intersections represent down -hole intervals only. Additional drilling (see figure) is underway to better define the orientation and true thickness of mineralization at these depths.

Table 1. Results 12TB134

Drill Hole	From (m)	To (m)	Width (m)	Au (g/t)
12TB134	492.00	596.00	104.00	2.00

or	578.00	595.40	17.40	6.74
or	589.00	595.40	6.40	10.21

The current released drill hole is part of the 2012 spring drill program at Three Bluffs which is exploring the potential beneath the recently updated resource. Wide spaced drilling is targeting high grade gold mineralization over a strike length of 1200 metres and a vertical extent between 300 and 600 metres below surface.

Three Bluffs Gold Deposit

The Three Bluffs Gold Project is a structurally controlled lode gold system hosted within oxide facies iron formation and greywackes. The deposit currently hosts a NI43-101 compliant resource of 4.30 Mt at 4.90 g/t gold for 678,000 ounces gold (indicated) and 4.53Mt at 5.69 g/t gold for 829,600 ounces gold (inferred). Gold mineralization has been drill tested at shallow levels along a strike length of 4.1 kilometres. The deposit has been most extensively drilled over the eastern 1.3 kilometres of the trend where pre-2012 drilling reached depths of 300 metres below surface with mineralization remaining strong and open to depth. The deepest holes on the deposit have all returned significant high grade intercepts. Geological modeling of the Three Bluffs gold system has identified several controls on high-grade mineralization including steep east plunging shoots and shallow east plunging fold hinges within iron formation. In 2010 NCG completed a Quantec Titan 24 geophysical survey over the Three Bluffs project which indicated that known gold zones at shallow to intermediate depths displays an excellent correlation with DC-resistivity lows. These resistivity lows extend to least 500 metres depth over much of the surveyed area, further supporting the potential to extend significant gold mineralization to depths beyond those drilled to date.

Resource Methodology

The 2012 Three Bluffs Resource estimate has been prepared by Dave Rennie, P.Eng. with independent resource consultants Roscoe Postle Associates Inc., in accordance with Canadian regulatory requirements set out in NI 43-101 and CIM resource definitions.

The Three Bluffs resource is based on 52,000 metres of drilling on the project completed between 1994 and 2011, with drill hole spacing at 50m x 60m to 30m x 30m in denser drilled portions of the deposit. Wireframes were constructed of correlatable mineralized envelopes utilizing a 0.50 g/t Au and 1.00g/t Au drill hole assay composites. Seventeen individual wireframes were constructed for the 0.50 g/t model and sixteen individual wireframes were constructed for the 1.00 g/t model. Grade capping levels were determined separately for each domain.

Inverse distance cubed (ID3) interpolation using three progressive search volumes (15m x 15m x 5m, 30m x 30m x 10m and 75m x 75m x 20m) on 1.5 metre down hole composites were utilized to assign gold grades to 10m x 10m x 2m blocks. Resource classification was applied using a combination of distance to nearest composite, number of holes used in the estimate, and manual adjustment based on inspection of the blocks. Inferred was provisionally assigned to any block within 75m of the nearest composite. Blocks within 30m of the nearest composite (generally within the 30m x 30m drill pattern), for which at least two drill holes contributed composites, were provisionally assigned to the Indicated category. These provisional assignments were reviewed in section and plan and manually adjusted to eliminate isolated small groups of unrealistically classified blocks.

To determine the open-pit resources Whittle pit optimization was performed on the 0.50 g/t Au model. The optimization utilized a long-term gold price of US$1,500 per ounce, process gold recovery of 93%, a calculated discard grade of 1.35 g/t Au, and pit batter angles of 50 degrees. The pit discard grade is based on break-even costs of mining, milling and G&A per tonne converted to grams/tonne Au at the gold price used for the optimization.

The underground portion of the resource was estimated from the 1.00 g/t Au model on that portion of the resource which lies below the optimize pit limits, utilizing a block cut-off grade of 2.50 g/t. Underground block cut-off grades are based on third party recommendations of similar size and working operations.

Three Bluffs Gold Deposit

The Three Bluffs gold project is a structurally controlled lode gold system hosted within oxide facies iron formation and greywackes. To date gold mineralization has been drill tested at shallow levels along a strike length of 4.1 kilometres. The deposit has been most extensively drilled over the eastern 1.3 kilometres of the trend where drilling has reached depths of 300 metres below surface with mineralization remaining strong and open to depth. The three deepest holes on the deposit have all returned significant high-grade intercepts. Geological modeling of the Three Bluffs gold system has identified several controls on high-grade mineralization including steep east plunging shoots and shallow east plunging fold hinges within iron formation. In 2010, North Country Gold completed a Quantec Titan 24 geophysical survey over the Three Bluffs project which indicated that known gold zones at shallow to intermediate depths displays an excellent correlation with DC-resistivity lows. These resistivity lows extend to least 500 metres depth over much of the surveyed area, further supporting the potential to extend significant gold mineralization to depths beyond those drilled to date.

Three Bluffs Gold Deposit: High-Grade Zones Persist To Depth

2011-11-08 16:35:00

Intercepts of 18.13 g/t Au over 13.00 m (incl. 28.75 g/t Au over 8.00 m), 3.09 g/t Au over 36.00 m (incl. 13.85 g/t Au over 4.00 m) and 4.19 g/t Au over 15.00 m

November 8, 2011, Edmonton, Alberta � North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V) (NCG or the �Company�) today announces the fifth tranche of results from the 2011 drill program at the Three Bluffs Gold Project in the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt located northeast of Baker Lake, Nunavut, Canada. The latest results from 29 diamond drill holes combined with existing drilling at the Three Bluffs-Antler-Hayes (The 4 km long Walker Lake Trend) indicate that the gold mineralization system is extensive, strong and persists to depth.

�These latest results have confirmed the presence of new moderately east-plunging high-grade shoots at the western end of the Three Bluffs Zone� said John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold Corp, � This new trend has now been delineated over at least 600 m of strike and demonstrates increasing grades as we continue to drill to depth To date the deepest drill hole in this new trend is only 250 m below surface and mineralization remains wide open to depth along the extent of its strike� added Mr. Williamson.

*Denotes holes highlighted in this release. Complete results for the 29 holes are given in Table 3. **Denotes holes released on July 16th, August 9th, and October 23rd , 2011.

At the Three Bluffs Gold Deposit, which comprises part of the Walker Lake Trend, drilling now confirms continuous gold mineralization over at least 1.4 km in strike extent and to depths of over 300 m. In addition, drilling at the Antler gold deposit has intersected continuous gold mineralization over at least 1 km and also to depths of at least 300 m (Figure 1).

It is clear that the Walker Lake Trend is a significant long lived gold mineralizing system over 4 km in strike extent and to depths of at least 320 m. In general, virtually all diamond drill holes that intercept the 30 to 50 m wide sheared zone of silicified and altered Achaean greenstone rocks contain intervals of 1 gram level gold grades. Modeling of the gold zones using a 0.5 gram cut-off confirms that the gold mineralization is continuous along strike (red zone in upper portion of Figure 1). Within the broader gold mineralizing system, high-grade portions or shoots are developed (up to 7.37 g Au/t across 68.30 m, Eastern Three Bluffs, and 18.13 g Au/t across 13.06 m, Western Three Bluffs)(Figure 1). To date, the 3 deepest holes contain significant high-grade gold mineralization at greater than 250 m below surface (Table 2, and Figure 1).

North Country Continues To Discover New Areas Of Gold Mineralization At Committee Bay Project

2011-10-24 05:29:00

October 24, 2011, Edmonton, Alberta - North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V)(NCG or the “Company”) is pleased to announce positive rock sample results from its 2011 regional exploration program conducted at the Committee Bay Greenstone Project, located northeast of Baker Lake in Nunavut. The 2011 prospecting program continues to locate new areas with anomalous gold and to expand and upgrade existing gold targets along the 300km long gold-rich Committee Bay Greenstone Belt.

The assessment-driven exploration program, completed in August 2011, resulted in the collection of 921 rock samples. In total, 5.5% of samples collected in the 2011 program assayed greater than 150 parts per billion (“ppb”) gold (“Au”). Rock samples greater than 150 ppb Au are considered anomalous within Committee Bay Greenstone Belt and historically many of the project’s advanced prospects began with similar anomalous grades. Three existing gold targets - Naqsaq, Maro and Prospector, have been extended and upgraded from 2011 sampling. Extension of the Three Bluffs ground magnetics grid was also completed during the season giving NCG an additional 1.5km coverage along the western extension of the prospective Walker Lake Trend, west of Hayes.

“The continued return of anomalous gold samples and upgrade of targets along the entire 300km Committee Bay belt attests to the district scale gold potential of the belt” stated John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold Corp. “While North Country remains focused on the development of the Three Bluffs gold deposit, the ongoing exploration of the entire belt and development of numerous mining centres and satellite resources remains as North Country’s longer term objective” added Mr. Williamson.

Naqsaq, located 75km northeast of the Three Bluffs gold deposit, occupies a similar geological trend and is comprised of a similar sulphidized iron formation to that at Three Bluffs with samples assaying up to 24.2 gAu/t (Figure 1). 2011 samples of 8.29 gAu/t, 7.93 gAu/t, 2.96 gAu/t, 2.31 gAu/t and 1.09 gAu/t complement 2010 results of 24.2 gAu/t and 2.94 gAu/t and now define a mineralized area with over 75m of strike. This area is coincident with a 1.3km long regional positive magnetic anomaly, which is immediately adjacent to a significant regional structural dislocation. The tenor of samples received to date and presence of key structural elements suggest potential for a significant gold system at the Naqsaq target.

Maro, located 45km southwest of the Three Bluffs gold deposit includes two linear glacially transported boulder trains that previously assayed up to 18.18 gAu/t. New 2011 boulder sampling of intensely altered and sulphidized mafic and ultramafic volcanic rocks in this area have yielded assays up to 4.47 gAu/t and 1.53 gAu/t. A new mineralized outcrop has been located 2.3km south of the second boulder train and has yielded assays up to 1.19 gAu/t. This outcrop is coincident with strong positive electromagnetic and magnetic anomalies which delineate a regional fold structure and encompass at least 6km of prospective, potentially mineralized stratigraphy within the Maro area.

Prospector, located 17km north of the Three Bluffs gold deposit contains more than 18 samples with grades between 1.04gAu/t and 12.55 gAu/t over a 800m x 800m area within a folded, altered and sulphidized iron formation. Samples collected in 2011 with gold grades of 4.99 gAu/t and 4.97 gAu/t extend the strike of the Prospector prospect a further 500m northwest, coincident with stratigraphic trends defined by magnetic and electromagnetic anomalies. Prospector occupies part of the larger A-P Trend - a 12km x 5km segment of the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt containing four gold prospects and yielding more than 60 rock samples with grades greater than 1 gAu/t and up to 18.6 gAu/t. Ongoing expansions of prospects within this broad-scale gold system have excellent potential to provide additional satellite gold resources to complement the Three Bluffs Project.

A detailed ground magnetic survey (32 line kilometres at 120 metre line spacing) was completed over the western strike extension of the Walker Lake Trend, west of the Hayes prospect and Antler and Three Bluffs deposits (Figure 2), in order to delineate the subsurface expression of the Three Bluffs mineralized units along strike. The survey confirms that the mineralized units continue undercover for at least another 1.5km west of Hayes and remain open to the west. The survey will be used to target further exploration drill holes in 2012.

North Country Further Extends High Grade Zones at Three Bluffs and Antler

2011-10-13 06:00:00

9.59 g/t over 18.00 m at Three Bluffs and 4.99 g/t over 13.00m at Antler

October 13, 2011, Edmonton, Alberta - North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V) (NCG or the “Company”) today announces the fourth tranche of results from the 2011 drill program at the Three Bluffs Gold Project in the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt located northeast of Baker Lake, Nunavut, Canada. The latest results from six holes at Three Bluffs and four holes at Antler continue to delineate and extend high grade gold zones within the Walker Lake gold trend.

"These latest results from the Three Bluffs and Antler zones continue to demonstrate the continuous nature of the high grade gold zones along the Walker Lake Trend” said John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold Corp. “We are particularly encouraged by the results from the Three Bluffs -Three Bluffs West area where our 2011 drilling has identified a new 600 metre long high grade trend at the western end of the system starting at 100 m below surface and remaining open to depth. NCG has also determined that the Three Bluffs and Three Bluffs West zones are one continuous zone of mineralization which extends for at least 1500 metres along strike” added Mr. Williamson.

Three Bluffs Drilling

Highlights from the six diamond drill holes completed at Three Bluffs include 9.59 g Au/t over 18.00 metres (30.73 g/t Au over 5.00 metres) (11TB122), and 6.65 g/t Au over 4.00m (11TB124). These drillholes are located within the new high grade trend located at the western end of the Three Bluffs zone (including Three Bluffs West zone) which has now been delineated for at least 600 metres along strike and for approximately 100 metres down-dip and remains open to depth. These new results are complementary to previous results from 11TW015 of 43.02 g/t Au over 4.00 metres, 11TB104 of 7.34 g/t Au over 25.00 metres, 11TW016 of 15.00 g/t Au over 11.25 metres and 11TB107B of 15.00 g/t Au over 12.00 metres (see press release’s dated July 16 and August 2011). Results for additional diamond drill holes completed within the high grade trend are pending, however geologic similarities to the completed drillholes, including the presence of intense sericite alteration and common visible gold suggest results will be favorable.

Antler Drilling

Highlights from the four holes completed at Antler include 4.99 g/t Au over 13.00 metres (11AN041) and 3.06 g/t Au over 13.00 metres (11AN025B). Mineralization at Antler has been delineated over a strike length of 1000 metres and the zone has been tested to a nominal down-dip depth of 100 to 150 metres. High grade mineralization at Antler appears to be controlled by a series of steep east plunging grade shoots which vary in width from 50 to 100 metres. The high grade shoots delineated to date all remain open to depth.

Titan 24 Drilling

During 2010 North Country completed a Quantec Titan 24 survey over the Three Bluffs project area (see press release dated October 28th, 2010). Results of this survey indicated that gold mineralization at Three Bluffs and Antler correlate directly with areas of low resistivity, and that additional untested resistivity anomalies occur at depth (250m below surface) between Three Bluffs and Antler. During the 2011 program, a single drillhole, 11AN042, was targeted at a resistivity low anomaly at the east end of Antler at a vertical depth of 300 metres. Previous shallow drilling in this area above the geophysical anomaly returned only modest results, over narrow widths. The results of 4.35 g/t over 10.00 metres validates the geophysical model and significantly increases the potential to develop resources to depth in the Three Bluffs-Antler gap area where deep, low resistivity anomalies covering at least 1000 metres of strike remain to be tested.

High grade shoots remain open beneath Antler and Three Bluffs where the three deepest drillholes on the project to date, returned high grade intercepts of 36.25 g/t Au over 4.81 metres and 9.03 g/t Au over 3.74 metres (05TB 038), 9.59 g/t Au over 18.00 metres (11TB122) and 4.35 g/t Au over 10.00 metres (11AN042) from three separate areas over at least 3,300 metres of strike along the Walker Lake Trend. Based on drilling results to date and untested but validated geophysical anomalies, North Country Gold believes that the Three Bluffs Project has excellent potential to develop significant high grade underground resources to depth.

About North Country Gold Corp.

The Three Bluffs deposit currently hosts an indicated resource of 508,000 ounces (2,700,000 tones at 5.85 g/t Au) and an additional inferred resource of 244,000 ounces (1,270,000 tones at 5.98 g/t Au). The Three Bluffs deposit occurs at the eastern end of a package of auriferous iron formation bearing supracrustral rocks (Walker Lake Trend) along which North Country Gold Corp. is focusing exploration and has conducted drilling in three key areas over a 4.1 kilometer segment of the trend during 2010: Three Bluffs, Antler, and Hayes.

NCG believes that significant potential exists along the Walker Lake Trend and has developed a strategy to identify additional near-surface open-pittable gold resources along the strike length of the trend, which will incrementally add to the existing high-grade resource inventory underpinned by the Three Bluffs deposit.

North Country Gold Corp controls one of the largest under explored greenstone belts within Canada, and has numerous drill ready high grade gold targets, in addition to those at Three Bluffs. The gold-rich Committee Bay Greenstone Belt is located approximately 300 kilometres north of Baker Lake within Nunavut Territory, Canada. North Country Gold Corp. is currently the 100% beneficial owner of the mineral rights to approximately 557,323 acres (225,569 hectares) of land comprising 216 active mineral claims and 14 mineral leases.

North Country Gold Corp. maintains an extensive quality control program in the preparation, shipping and checking of all samples from the property.

North Country Gold Corp Completes Infrastructure Upgrades At Three Bluffs Project

2011-09-26 05:35:00

Sept 26, 2011, Edmonton, Alberta – North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V)(NCG or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has completed infrastructure upgrades at its 100% owned Three Bluffs Deposit, north of Baker Lake, Nunavut.

Camp infrastructure improvements at the Three Bluffs project include upgrading the camp to a modern 100 man facility including installation of leading edge power generation, kitchen, washroom facilities, waste water treatment and incinerator equipment. The construction of a 3,300 foot gravel airstrip, bulk fuel handling facilities and two 3,800 square foot sprung structures to serve as future shop and core processing facilities, are also nearing completion.

NCG has also installed a state of the art, all-season, automated water supply system to provide water for drilling along the 4.1 kilometre Walker Lake Trend hosting the Three Bluffs, Antler and Hayes gold system.

The project management, engineering, procurement and construction of the infrastructure upgrades at the Three Bluffs project were completed by JDS Energy & Mining, Inc. ("JDS") of Vancouver and Kelowna, B.C., Canada during January to August of 2011.

“The scale of the infrastructure upgrades to the Three Bluffs project reflect our belief in the viability of the project to deliver an economic gold resource in the future” stated John Williamson, President and CEO of NCG. “The upgrades will not only allow us to ramp-up drilling and exploration activities in future campaigns, but will allow us to do so in a more efficient and cost effective manner. The fully automated, all season system to supply the drills with water will allow NCG to effectively extend the drilling season, both earlier in the spring and later into the fall when freezing conditions have traditionally precluded the use of conventional water line systems” added Mr. Williamson.

The Three Bluffs Gold Project currently hosts an indicated resource of 508,000 ounces (2,700,000 tones at 5.85 g/t Au) and an additional inferred resource of 244,000 ounces (1,270,000 tones at 5.98 g/t Au) at the Three Bluffs deposit which remains open to the west and to depth. The deposit occurs at the eastern end of a package of auriferous iron formation bearing supracrustral rocks (Walker Lake Trend) that has been traced at least five kilometres west, which the spring 2010 drilling has indicated may be continuously mineralized. North Country Gold Corp. believes that significant potential exists along the Walker Lake Trend and has developed a strategy to indentify additional near surface open-pittable gold resources along the strike length of the trend. This will incrementally add to the existing high grade resource inventory underpinned by Three Bluffs deposit.

North Country Gold Corp. controls one of the largest under explored greenstone belts within Canada, and has numerous drill ready high grade gold targets, in addition to those at Three Bluffs. The gold-rich Committee Bay Greenstone Belt is located approximately 300 kilometres north of Baker Lake within Nunavut Territory, Canada. North Country Gold Corp. is the 100% beneficial owner of the mineral rights to approximately 557,323 acres (225,569 hectares) of land comprising 216 active mineral claims and 14 mineral leases.

North Country Gold Corp. maintains an extensive quality control program in the preparation, shipping and checking of all samples from the property. The program is supervised by Peter Kleespies, M.Sc., P. Geol. who is the Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.

North Country Gold Corp. Extends High-Grade Gold Trend At Three Bluffs And Three Bluffs West To Depth And Along Strike

2011-08-09 17:20:00

New high grade intersections of 16.23 g/t Au over 10.00 m and 15.00 g/t Au over 11.25 m

August 9, 2011, Edmonton, Alberta – North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V) (NCG or the “Company”) announces the third tranche of results from the 2011 drill program at the Three Bluffs Gold Project in the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt located northeast of Baker Lake, Nunavut, Canada. Drilling has intersected high grade gold to depth and along strike, west of the current resource area at the Three Bluffs and Three Bluffs West zones, increasing the strike length of the core Three Bluffs zones to over 1300 metres. Drilling has also confirmed the presence of mineralization over an additional 700 metres of strike between the Three Bluffs West and Antler zones.

"The presence of significant gold grade intercepts at depth and along strike of Three Bluffs and Three Bluffs West area continue to confirm the significant resource potential along the Walker Lake Trend” said John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold Corp. “We are beginning to see a trend of increasing grades and thicknesses to depth as we continue to explore the area west of our current Three Bluffs resource. Additionally, the confirmation of mineralization in the Three Bluffs - Antler gap opens up further resource opportunities as we continue to explore this area to depth,” added Mr. Williamson.

Highlights from the 5 diamond drill and 3 reverse circulation drill holes at Three Bluffs include 16.23 g/t Au over 10.00 m (11TB107B) obtained along the depth extension of the shear zone at approximately 200 m below the surface. Highlights from the 3 diamond drill holes at Three Bluffs West include 15.00 g/t Au over 11.25 m (11TW016) and 4.85g/t Au over 8 m (11TW020) obtained along the strike and depth extension of the shear zone (note: 11TW016 has been upgraded from the previously released 7.36 g/t Au over 11.25 m (see press release dated July 6, 2011) upon completion of metallic screen assays over the mineralized interval). These intersections have significant potential to increase the gold resources to depth at Three Bluffs and Three Bluffs West.

Three Bluffs West - Antler Gap

Results, including 8.67 g/t Au over 4.57 m from five wide-spaced reverse circulation drill holes drilled between Three Bluffs West and Antler zones indicate that the Walker Lake structure is continuously mineralized through the previously un-drilled gap. These initial exploratory drill holes targeted the near-surface projection of the mineralized corridor and have confirmed the presence and location of the mineralization. Results of the 2010 Quantec Titan 24 survey indicate that mineralization in this section of the trend is best developed at depth, well below the level of the present drill holes. North Country is currently testing the deeper portion of the Three Bluffs-Antler gap, targeting Titan 24 resisitivity lows, which are directly associated with high grade mineralization at Three Bluffs, Three Bluffs West and Antler.

North Country Extends High-Grade Gold Trend at Three Bluffs

2011-07-06 14:46:00

Edmonton, Alberta � North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V) (NCG or the "Company") today announces initial results from the 2011 drill program at Three Bluffs West Zone within the Three Bluffs Gold Project in the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt located northeast of Baker Lake, Nunavut, Canada. Drilling has intersected high grade gold to depth, west of the current resource area, increasing the strike length of the core Three Bluffs zones to over 1300 metres.

�Our first results from the 2011 program in the Three Bluffs area have again demonstrated the tremendous potential of the project.� stated John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold Corp., �These current diamond drill hole results are from the western end of our resource area where previous shallow drilling intersected relatively low-grades. NCG believes there is an excellent opportunity to significantly increase the resource at Three Bluffs as the mineralization remains open to depth along the length of the Walker Lake Trend, and we are confident that ongoing drilling will identify new mineralization and expand the existing high grade shoots to depth.� added Mr. Williamson.

The diamond drill holes included in this release are part of the $25 million, 2011 drilling program designed to develop resources at nominal 50 x 50 metre spacing to an initial vertical depth of 200 metres along the 4.1 kilometre Walker Lake trend. Diamond drilling has focused on delineating and expanding resources in the Antler and Three Bluffs West areas. Full results for the currently released 10 diamond drill holes are in Table 1, and a longitudinal section displaying mineralized pierce points is given in Figure 1.

Two reverse circulation holes, 11TBC001 and 11TBC002, were completed as infill holes within the current Three Bluffs resource area. Results of 8.06 g/t Au over 30.49 metres and 2.20 g/t Au over 16.76 metres correlate favorably with surrounding historic diamond drill holes, and support the use of the reverse circulation technique as a cost effective exploration tool on the project. Reverse circulation drilling in 2011 is primarily designed as wide-spaced shallow exploration holes and drill fences along untested portions of the Walker Lake Trend. The results of the reverse circulation drilling are anticipated to rapidly identify additional new high-grade gold mineralized zones along the covered and untested portion of the trend, which will then be further delineated utilizing diamond core drilling.

North Country Gold Corp. Expands Gold Mineralization at Antler

2011-06-28 16:07:00

Results include 7.58 g/t Au over 9.48 m to depth and 3.63 g/t Au over 7.61 m along strike

Edmonton, Alberta � North Country Gold Corp. (NCG: TSX-V) (NCG or the �Company�) announces initial results from the Antler target at the Three Bluffs Gold Project in the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt, northeast of Baker Lake, Nunavut, Canada. These preliminary results are part of the $25 million exploration program targeting at least 30,000 metres of drilling in 2011. Diamond drilling continues to expand the Antler zone to depth and reverse circulation drilling has extended the trace of the known gold mineralization for at least 360 metres west of the zone discovered in 2010.

�The initial 2011 drill results at Antler continue to outline the potential of the Walker Lake Trend.� stated John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold Corp., �The four diamond drill holes confirm the presence of east-plunging, high-grade shoots which persist to depth within the pervasively mineralized structure and with the addition of the widely spaced reverse circulation drilling results, the strike length of the known Antler mineralization is now over 1000 metres. NCG is confident that with continued drilling at Antler we will be able to define significant resources along this portion of the trend� added Mr. Williamson.

The four diamond drill holes completed at Antler are part of the 2011 diamond drill program which is designed to develop resources at nominal 50 x 50 metre spacing to an initial vertical depth of 200 metres along the 4.1 kilometre Walker Lake Trend. Diamond drilling has thus far focused on delineating and expanding resources in the Antler and Three Bluffs West areas. Results from the initial four diamond drill holes at Antler are shown in Table 1.

Reverse circulation drilling in 2011 is primarily designed as wide-spaced (120 metres spaced sections), shallow exploration holes along untested portions of the Walker Lake Trend. The results of the reverse circulation drilling are anticipated to rapidly identify additional new high-grade gold mineralized zones along the covered and untested portion of the trend, which will then be aggressively delineated utilizing diamond core drilling. Results for the reverse circulation holes completed at Antler are given in Table 2.

North Country Gold Corp Announces $25 Million Program at Three Bluffs

2011-03-03 06:10:00

Six Drill Resource Delineation and Expansion Program Planned for 2011

Edmonton, Alberta � North Country Gold Corp. ( NCG: TSX-V)(NCG or the �Company�) today announced the 2011 exploration program for its Three Bluffs gold project at the Committee Bay Greenstone Belt located northeast of Baker Lake, Nunavut, Canada. This year�s program will be focused on gold resource delineation and expansion along the 4.1 kilometer Walker Lake Trend which hosts the Three Bluffs and Antler deposits.

�The 2011 exploration season will be pivotal for North Country Gold� stated John Williamson, President and CEO of North Country Gold Corp, �Based on the outstanding success of our 2010 program North Country Gold is poised for the most aggressive exploration season on the project to date. �From the 2010 drilling results and the Titan 24 geophysics conducted on the project last year we are very confident that the Walker Lake trend hosting our known mineralization is continuously mineralized over a strike length of at least 4.1 kilometers. This year�s drilling programs are designed to significantly increase the gold resource present on the project by defining the open-pittable resource along the entirety of the trend, pursuing high grade trends to depth and testing for new zones based on the latest geophysical results� added Mr. Williamson.

The program is planned to begin in early March with mobilization of crews to establish a seasonal airstrip to facilitate mobilization of equipment and fuel during April and May. Drilling is expected to commence during April with a single reverse circulation drill which will explore along the trend in advance of start-up of five diamond drill rigs in mid-May. Drilling with all six rigs is expected to continue on the project through the summer.

In conjunction with the drilling program, North Country Gold plans on significant infrastructure improvements for the project during 2011 which are expected to improve overall drilling productivity while decreasing the exploration costs associated with drilling in remote environments.

The Three Bluffs deposit currently hosts an indicated resource of 508,000 ounces (2,700,000 tones at 5.85 g/t Au) and an additional inferred resource of 244,000 ounces (1,270,000 tones at 5.98 g/t Au). The Three Bluffs deposit occurs at the eastern end of a package of auriferous iron formation bearing supracrustral rocks (Walker Lake Trend) along which North Country Gold Corp is focusing exploration and has conducted drilling in three key areas over a 4.1 kilometer segment of the trend during 2010;Three Bluffs, Antler, and Hayes.
