Value Recognition from Suite of Exploration/Mining/Processing Assets Can Now Begin

Jun. 28, 2011 (Marketwire Canada) --

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- Nuinsco Resources Limited ("Nuinsco" or "the Company") (TSX:NWI), (www.nuinsco.ca) today announced a favourable decision from the Quebec Superior Court to allow the 50:50 joint ownership with Ocean Partners Holdings Limited ("Ocean Partners") of all exploration, mining and processing assets located in and near Chibougamau, Quebec and other assets (the "Assets") that were formerly owned by Les Ressources Campbell Inc. and Ressources MSV (2007) Inc. ("Campbell").

"This day has been a long time coming, and we are extremely pleased for our shareholders that we can finally put this process behind us and get on with the job of realizing the value of this historic mining camp," said René Galipeau, Vice-Chairman and CEO. "From the permitted mill and tailings facility, to the near-term copper production potential at the partially-developed Corner Bay deposit, to the exploration upside on virtually all the projects, including past producers, this land package has tremendous value which can now finally be understood and recognized by the market."

Chibougamau's Lake Dore Complex has a prolific production history. Since the 1950s the 18 separate Lake Dore Complex mines have produced 47.4million tons of ore containing 1.6billion pounds of copper and 3.4million ounces of gold. The Assets, now 100%-owned by Nuinsco and Ocean Partners, host seven of these past-producing mines representing 75% of this total past production. Additionally the Assets include two development-stage properties, an operational 3,000 ton per day mill and a permitted tailings facility. The Nuinsco/Ocean Partners property package includes:

Cedar Bay Mine 1958-90 3,782,850 1.57 0.091 Yes

In addition to the past producers which have exploration upside noted above, the 11,000 hectare Nuinsco/Ocean Partners land package hosts two known significant exploration/development-stage properties – Corner Bay and the Dore Lake Ramp.

Corner Bay

Campbell began development of the high-grade Corner Bay deposit in 2007 for extraction of a 50,000 ton bulk sample. Development ceased in 2008 due to Campbell's deteriorating financial situation as a result of the worldwide financial crisis. A National Instrument 43-101-compliant estimate of resources at Corner Bay, dated July 12, 2006, is available under the Campbell Resources Inc. profile at www.sedar.com.

The Corner Bay deposit remains open to depth and possibly to the south. In addition to exploration upside, Corner Bay represents a source of mill feed for any future Chibougamau Camp mining plan and also has the potential to be a standalone mining operation.

Dore Lake Ramp

The Dore Lake Ramp was developed in 1991-92 by Westminer Canada Limited. The project currently contains a non-NI-43-101-compliant historic copper/gold resource and will likely be drilled in connection with deep drilling at Cedar Bay noted in the table above.

"It's important to remember that development of Corner Bay and mining at Copper Rand ceased not due to lack of mineral resources but rather to the global financial crisis. A collection of exploration/development/mining assets of this quality doesn't come along every day and it's very easy to see the tremendous value that this represents to Nuinsco shareholders," Mr. Galipeau said. "And this is over and above the value that a permitted concentrator and tailings facility brings to the table. Our goal is to work closely with the town of Chibougamau and the province of Quebec to revitalize this mining camp and bring to light this unrecognized value for local communities and Nuinsco shareholders."
