Wallbridge Mining has joint venture properties with Lonmin Plc, CVRD Inco, Xstrata Nickel, Pele Mountain Resources Inc. and Crowflight Minerals Inc. Exploration successes include a new nickel-sulphide discovery on the Frost Lake Property, as well as the delineation of an extensive zone of low sulphide PGE mineralization called the Amy Lake Zone. This mineralized zone is located in the same belt of rocks, which hosts the recently announced CVRD Inco - Lonmin Plc PGE copper-nickel discovery. 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 (representing over 20% of Duluth), generating value in both Wallbridge and for our shareholders. Exploration Properties Wallbridge has 39 properties covering more than 712 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 CVRD 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:
