Excellent flotation testwork results from the Blue Spec

Shear Gold-Antimony Project Metallurgical Study

Northwest Resources Limited (ASX: NWR, "Northwest" or "the Company") is pleased to report that first phase flotation tests on samples from the Blue Spec and Gold Spec deposits have produced excellent recoveries of 95% for gold and 98-99% for antimony into concentrate. The flotation tests are part of a comprehensive Metallurgical Study currently under way.
Northwest's vision for the Blue Spec Shear Gold-Antimony Project is to bring the Blue Spec and Gold Spec deposits into production in 2013 as a high-grade narrow vein underground mining operation producing a gold enriched antimony concentrate for direct sale and to expand the project through the discovery of additional high-grade deposits along the shear zone.
