Wallbridge Mining has exceptional unrealized mineral potential with a major land position of approximately 71,000 hectares in the world's most productive nickel-copper camp. The Sudbury Mining Camp, boosting a historic production of over 20 billion pounds of nickel and 20 billion pounds of copper, is still a camp where new discoveries are being made. Wallbridge Mining has an experienced and knowledgeable management team focused on nickel, copper, gold and PGE exploration in Sudbury basin.

Wallbridge Mining has joint venture properties with Lonmin Plc, Vale Inco, Xstrata Nickel, Pele Mountain Resources Inc. and Crowflight Minerals Inc.

Wallbridge remains committed to exploration on its strong portfolio of properties in the under-explored footwall rocks of the prolific Sudbury Mining Camp. The company's focus on this environment is well founded as these rocks continue to demonstrate their potential for discovery on a regular basis. Wallbridge's Broken Hammer deposit, Trill Offset dyke and Amy Lake PGE zone, as well as FNX Mining's Levack Footwall and Rob's deposits, and Vale Inco-Lonmin's Capre 3000 discovery, are proof of the abundant potential in these rocks.

In 2009 Wallbridge will continue to advance work on its portfolio of 39 projects covering about 705 square kilometres of this environment.

Duluth Metals Limited (DM:TSX) is a successful spin-out of Wallbridge's Minnesota nickel-copper-PGE properties. As part of the transaction, Wallbridge received 10 million shares generating value in both Wallbridge and for our shareholders.

Exploration Properties

Wallbridge has 39 properties covering more than 705 square kilometers in the favorable Sudbury Contact footwall rocks. These properties host favourable geology, yet have never been extensively explored. Footwall rocks of the Sudbury Igneous Complex are important as they contain the majority of nickel-copper-gold-PGE deposits found in this mining camp. New mineralized areas have been discovered since 2005. Follow-up exploration and drilling is continuing in 2008 with a main focus on the Trill, Frost Lake, Skynner and Wisner properties.

Wallbridge also has four properties outside of the Sudbury Mining Camp. These properties are situated in the Swayze and Kirkland Lake greenstone belts within driving distance to Sudbury and include the Demorest, the Shipley, Hong Kong and Ben Nevis Properties. In addition, Wallbridge has acquired the Rogers Creek copper-molybdenum-gold porphyry property located about 40 kilometers south-east of Pemberton, in south-western British Columbia.

Many of Wallbridge's Sudbury properties are being explored in joint venture with major joint venture partners such as Vale Inco, Lonmin Plc and Xstrata Nickel. In addition, Wallbridge has acquired two additional North Range land packages from Pele Mountain Resources Inc. and Crowflight Minerals Inc. to increase their land position in the unexplored outer footwall rim of the Sudbury Basin.

Active exploration work is ongoing on the following properties:
  • Frost
  • Skynner
  • Wisner
  • Trill
  • Parkin Impala joint venture
  • Rogers Creek
