Investorideas.com Reports on Resource Companies in the McFaulds Lake Area- The Next Big Base Metal Play?

Investorideas.com Reports on Resource Companies in the McFaulds Lake Area- The Next Big Base Metal Play?

Who’s on Base? … Noront Resources Ltd, MacDonald Mines Exploration Ltd., Hawk Uranium Inc., KWG Resources Inc., Spider Resources Inc. and a Growing List of Juniors


POINT ROBERTS, WA and DELTA, BC – January 29, 2008 - www.InvestorIdeas.com, a leading global investor and industry research resource portal covering mining stocks, reports on the McFaulds Lake Area, a highly followed base metal play. The McFaulds “Ring of Fire” will be one of the plays discussed in the third Investor Ideas online investor mining conference to be held February 27, 2008, themed: “The Global Hunt for Commodities - Finding the Next Big Play in Mining Stocks”.

In a volatile market, investors continue to speculate on one of the hottest potential mining plays to come around in a while and the juniors are lining up to follow the money.

A growing number of resource companies have joined Noront Resources Ltd (TSX.V: NOT) in the McFaulds Lake "Ring of Fire" area including: MacDonald Mines Exploration Ltd. (TSX.V: BMK), KWG Resources Inc. (Market, News), Spider Resources Inc. (Market, News) and Hawk Uranium Inc. (TSX .V: HUI).

Hawk Uranium Inc. (TSX.V: HUI) will be one of many publicly traded mining companies presenting with leading industry resource experts, in the upcoming Investorideas.com online investor conference.

Hawk’s President Vance White commented regarding their McFaulds properties, "We are very pleased to have an opportunity to be part of the McFaulds "Ring of Fire" play by participating with the two major players in the area. We have had a long standing relationship with the principals of both Noront and MacDonald. Both companies have excellent management teams and exploration personnel. “

“I believe that the Noront discovery will become a very significant discovery and the McFaulds district; a significant new mining district. This entire play will evolve over the next few years. One must remember that this area of Northern Ontario is a very under explored area and with the advent of modern geophysical techniques and equipment a number of new discoveries could well come out of the area. Also with the construction of the road into the DeBeers Victory diamond mine one will have greater and easier access to the area."

Brent Nykoliation, Director of Business Development, MacDonald Mines Exploration (TSX.V: BMK), noted, “We are very pleased to announce that a major drill program on MacDonald and Joint Venture ground with Temex Resources, Baltic Resources and Hawk Uranium will commence in February. We will be moving a second drill into the area in early March and anticipate that MacDonald Mines along with 5 or 6 other companies will be fully engaged in winter/spring drill programs.”

He went on to say, “We anticipate that the current airborne survey will produce multiple geophysical targets on both the MacDonald Mines and Joint Venture ground, Equally important to note, MacDonald Mines still has very good targets on the McNugget, Big Mac and the Joint Venture Property with Hawk Uranium that were identified from its previous airborne survey and still must be drill tested.”

In any sector- it’s wise to research who is investing the “smart money”. In the center of this play is IBK Capital Corp. of Toronto, who has provided private placements for several of the key players, starting with Noront Resources: $35 million, in addition to MacDonald Mines: $10.5 million, Hawk Uranium: $2 million, Spider Resources: $2.76 million and Seafield Resources: $0.85 million. IBK continues to raise funds for other companies active on the Ring.

According to Michael White, Vice President of IBK Capital, “Noront’s Eagle One deposit is a world class nickel-copper-platinum-palladium discovery. Results to date are very encouraging and warrant substantial follow-up by Noront and others in this area now dubbed the Ring of Fire. The Ring of Fire is three times the size of the Sudbury Basin and will require considerable funding for exploration going forward. The combined budgets of companies exploring on the ring already total $60 million for 2008 and we believe $250 million will be spent on exploration over the next five years. We are delighted to be involved with this world class discovery and pleased to provide investment banking services to strong management teams committed to the area. To date we have raised over $50 million dollars for companies active on the Ring of Fire.”

The Company that made the area known to investors, Noront Resources Ltd., is also the most aggressive in the area, reports the company.

According to Noront’s President, Richard Nemis, “Many investors and Mining Analysts have indeed compared Noront’s Eagle One Nickel-Copper-PGE discovery to other significant historical mining plays in Canada, including; Voisey’s Bay and Hemlo. This project, although only a few months old, has already attracted the attention of many new investors while rewarding old investors for their support of Noront over many, many years. The discovery has raised the eyebrows of many senior explorers that are watching from a distance, the developing exploration play by many “Bay Street juniors” as these company’s assemble strategic land positions around the Ring of Fire. This comparison is likely due to the market attention, as well as the staking rush that has happened over the past 3 or 4 months in this isolated region of Northern Ontario, however the comparison is not likely to do with the geology of these two world class mining projects, as the geology of the Eagle One occurrence is quite different from that of Hemlo or Voisey’s Bay. Eagle One is a magmatic massive sulphide, bearing some genetic similarities to Voisey’s Bay, however, Eagle One has quite high levels of Platinum and Palladium along with the high nickel and copper content, the likes of which are not seen in Voisey’s Bay Cu-Ni-Co deposits. Noront would compare the geology and mineralization to that of the many Ni-Cu-PGE occurrences and deposits (including Xstrata’s Raglan deposit) in the Ungava Region, Northern Quebec, where similar grades of these base and precious metals are found. “

“Noront is currently the most aggressive company in the area with respect to drilling, geophysical surveying, and land acquisition (staking claims and optioning properties that have been assembled or maintained by other explorers in the area). Noront is looking at the Double Eagle project as a regional play, has commenced a region wide airborne survey, the scope of which will rival those done in the past in the other historical areas mentioned above. Based upon information from this survey, Noront will be prioritizing anomalies for ground geophysical and drill test follow-up, starting in early 2008. The drilling will continue on the Eagle One occurrence and in its immediate surrounds, until this occurrence is understood well enough to prepare a preliminary resource estimate. Eagle One will be used as a model by Noront, to look for other look alikes in the immediate vicinity, and as such, the detailed geophysical and geochemical signatures from our ground work will be kept confidential and in-house. This will provide an exploration advantage to Noront in the area over the some of the competition that is new to the area, perhaps prompting others to join forces (JV) with Noront. Noront anticipates a very aggressive exploration campaign throughout 2008 that will hopefully translate into an increase in the shareholder value in the company.”

Another name in the “Ring” is Pinetree Capital, (Market, News) who has purchased shares of several junior mining companies exploring the McFaulds Lake, including Noront Resources and MacDonald Mines Exploration.

Other companies with properties in the area include Fancamp Exploration Ltd., Goldeye Explorations Limited, 50:50% Joint Venture Partner, Tribute Minerals Inc and Probe Mines.

For investors following the McFaulds play, follow the leader, Noront, for results and follow the money to see if further capital is invested in the area. Time will tell if this is another historic mining play in Canadian history.

(the "Company")(CDNX:BTO.V ) is pleased to announce the completion of its initial public offering (the "Offering") of 40,000,000 common shares at a price of CDN$2.50 per share, for gross proceeds of CDN$100 million. The Company's common shares begin trading today on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "BTO". The Offering was sold through a syndicate of Canadian underwriters. The Company has granted the underwriting syndicate an over-allotment option to purchase up to 6,000,000 common shares at the price of CDN $2.50 per share. The option is exercisable, in whole or in part, within the next 30 days to cover over-allotments if any, and for market stabilization purposes. If the option is exercised in full, gross proceeds of the Offering will be CDN$115 million.

B2Gold Corp. is a mineral exploration company founded by the former management team of Bema Gold Corporation ("Bema"). Bema, a former NYSE and TSX listed company, grew from a junior explorer to an international gold producer and was acquired by Kinross Gold Corporation ("Kinross") through a CDN$3.5 billion transaction in February 2007. Led by former Bema President and Chief Executive Officer Clive Johnson, B2Gold intends to capitalize on the extensive experience and relationships its management team has developed in the mining business over the past 25 years.

B2Gold's corporate objective is to build an intermediate gold company through exploration and acquisitions. As a private company, B2Gold amassed interests in an impressive portfolio of exploration properties that will be the focus of aggressive exploration and development drilling commencing in early 2008. In addition, the Company continues to pursue numerous exploration and development projects for potential acquisition. The strategy of entrepreneurship and sound corporate practices that defined Bema will continue at B2Gold.

The Company's assets include interests in three projects in Colombia: Gramalote, Quebradona and Miraflores and an interest in one project in far east Russia: Kupol East and West.

The Colombian properties are all part of arrangement with AngloGold Ashanti ("Anglo") which has the largest mineral rights land package in Colombia and is currently exploring several targets. Under a joint venture agreement with Anglo B2Gold will have the opportunity to acquire more exploration projects in Colombia.

Gramalote

The Gramalote gold property is located approximately 80 kilometres northeast of Medellin, the regional capital of the Department of Antioquia. Exploration work carried out to date has identified three target types within the Gramalote property including: an advanced phase target that has been tested by 43 drill holes and is ready for pre-feasibility stage drilling at Gramalote Ridge; outlying targets within four to five kilometres of Gramalote Ridge; and various early phase, rock and stream sediment sample anomalies within the 175 square kilometre area of interest at the Gramalote property.

B2Gold currently holds a 25% interest in the Gramalote property and has signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding with Anglo to increase B2Gold's interest to 51%.

In the first quarter of 2008 the Company will initiate a program at Gramalote that will include infill and exploration drilling and metallugical testing.

Quebradona

The Quebradona gold-porphyry property is located approximately 60 kilometres south-southwest of Medellin. Quebradona contains at least five early-phase exploration target areas, including La Aurora, La Isabela, La Sola, El Chaquiro and El Tenedor over a 6 by 4 kilometre region. Surface exploration, including trenching, completed on the property has returned widespread anomalous gold values indicative of the presence of potentially economic porphyry-style gold mineralization in each of the target areas. The proposed exploration program is intended to determine the existence of possible large-tonnage, low grade gold deposits that may be amenable to open-pit mining and low cost mineral extraction. Drilling is scheduled to commence in February 2008.

B2Gold currently has the right to earn a 51% interest in the Quebradona property, subject to certain back-in rights of Anglo.

Miraflores

The Miraflores gold property is located approximately 190 kilometres west-northwest of the Colombian capital of Bogota and approximately 55 kilometres north of Pereira, the regional capital of the Department of Risaralda. Various studies of the Miraflores property and its gold contents have been completed in the last 20 years, including studies by the Colombian government and international exploration companies. Initial diamond drilling and metallurgical test work completed have been successful at delineating a significant low-grade medium-tonnage gold occurrence that may be amenable to bulk tonnage mining and mineral extraction techniques.

B2Gold currently has the right to earn a 51% interest in the Miraflores property, subject to certain back-in rights of Anglo, but has signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding with Anglo to increase B2Gold's interest to 100%.

Based on the favourable exploration and metallurgical results to date, B2Gold is conducting additional drilling and metallurgical testing scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2008.

Kupol East and West

B2Gold has rights to acquire a 37.5% interest, from Kinross, in the Kupol East and West licenses in Chukotka, Russia. These licenses cover the ground surrounding and adjacent to the high grade Kupol gold and silver mine that was being developed by Bema at the time of the Kinross takeover. Kupol is scheduled to commence production in the second half of 2008.

Previous exploration work carried out by Bema and most recently by B2Gold on the Kupol East and West licenses have outlined several mineralized targets that will be further explored through a program of soil sampling, trenching and drilling commencing in spring 2008.

B2Gold's President and CEO Clive Johnson commented: "Our management group, Board of Directors and employees are pleased by the positive response to the initial public offering of B2Gold shares. We are committed to building shareholder value through the exploration and development of our impressive portfolio of mineral properties".

The securities described in this release have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent such registration or an exemption therefrom.

On behalf of B2GOLD CORP.

The Federal Reserve’s aggressive move on Tuesday, cutting both the fed and the discount rates by 50 basis points led to a stock market rally and saw gold futures reach a 28-year high of $735.50 an ounce. Lower interest rates, the weak dollar and inflation concerns are expected to drive investors towards safe haven investments such as precious metals.

The upcoming ‘Mining for Money’ conference will provide investors with a valuable tool for understanding trends and opportunities within the mining and resource sector. The format for the online conference will consist of audio and visual presentations averaging 15-20 minutes in length. Free registration is offered at: http://www.investorideas.com/forums/Register.aspx

Recent Additions Include:

Canstar Resources Inc. (TSX.V: ROX) is a Canadian mineral exploration and development company focused on gold and base metal deposits. The Company’s two primary properties are the Mary March property in the Buchans area of Newfoundland and the McFaulds Lake Project in Northern Ontario. The Mary March property is on option from Phelps Dodge Corporation in partnership with Xstrata, and covers a high-grade copper-lead-zinc VMS deposit containing significant gold and silver. Drilling on the property has produced one of the highest grade intersections ever achieved outside of the nearby Buchans Deposit, averaging 10.33 % zinc, 7.56% lead, .33% copper, 4.1 g/t gold and 118.1 g/t silver over 9.23 meters. The McFaulds Lake Projects are generating significant interest owing to their proximity to a new, high-grade, copper-nickel discovery by Noront Resources Inc. The Company also maintains a 75% interest in the Slate Bay copper-gold property in the Red Lake area of Northwestern Ontario.
www.canstarresources.com


Geodex Minerals ltd (TSX.V: GXM) is a Canadian based resource company with a focus on the exploration and development of specialty metal deposits in New Brunswick. The Company’s flagship property is Sisson Brook which contains a large open-pittable tungsten/molybdenum deposit. Geodex is also considered the world’s largest land holder of premium indium exploration properties due to the ownership of their second property, the rich Mount Pleasant Camp. Located north of Fredericton, the Sisson Brook deposit is advancing to economic and development steps in 2007. A program of 7,500 metres of drilling was completed in 2006 which greatly expanded the zone in all directions and is used in a 43-101-compliant inferred resource calculation. The Company believes the size of the deposit, which is right at surface, is beyond what is required for a mine. www.geodexminerals.org


Merit Mining Corporation’s (TSX.V: MEM) objective is to become a mid tier producer of 250,000 ounces of gold equivalent within the next 3 to 5 years by developing its Greenwood and J&L projects to production combined with another acquisition. Merit is now financed to develop its Greenwood Gold Project ($15m) to production, to advance its J&L polymetallic project (gold-silver-zinc-lead) to feasibility stage ($10.8m) and to make further acquisitions. Merit’s short term goal is to develop its project at Greenwood to production by the second quarter of 2008 at 30,000 ounces of gold equivalent in the first full year of production and 50,000 ounces thereafter. The Company’s short term goal with its J&L project is to complete a major underground drilling and development program combined with environmental and pre-feasibility work leading to a feasibility study aimed at a production rate of 150,000 ounces of gold equivalent per year. www.meritminingcorp.com

Planet Exploration (TSX.V: PXI) is an emerging international minerals exploration company based in Calgary, Canada. The Company has strategic properties and active exploration in some of the world's most prolific gold regions, with the Red Lake area being the current focus of our attentions. Planet Exploration is currently involved in a joint venture with Goldcorp Red Lake Mines, a division of Goldcorp Inc., one of the most progressive gold mining companies in the world. The Planet Exploration/Goldcorp joint venture owns 100% of the Sidace Lake property. Goldcorp has a 60% share of ownership of the property, and as such they fund 60% of the drilling. Goldcorp also owns 15% of the outstanding shares of Planet Exploration. The Sidace Lake property has two significant discoveries, the Main Discovery Zone (MDZ) and the Upper Duck Zone (UDZ). Significant results of 11.66 grams per tonne gold over 18.00 metres from the MDZ in hold RL-06-112 and 36.46 grams per tonne gold over 3.60m in the UDZ shows the robustness of these deposits and why Goldcorp, one of the premier gold producers, has joint ventured with Planet Exploration. www.planetexploration.net

Peter GrandichFounder, Grandich Publications, LLCWith no formal education or training, Peter Grandich entered Wall Street and within three years was appointed Vice President of Investment Strategy for a leading New York Stock Exchange member firm. A prolific and often-quoted writer, he edited and published four investment newsletters.Labeled the Wall Street Whiz Kid, Grandich gained national notoriety by being among the very few who not only forecasted the 1987 stock market crash just weeks before it happened, but on the very next day he predicted that within a year the market would reach a new all-time high – which it did. Proving his 1987 forecast was no fluke, Mr. Grandich said in January 2000 that the year 2000 will go down as the year the great mega bull market of the 80s and 90s came to an end.
