Hinterland Metals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:HMI) is pleased to announce that it has been
approved for $40,000 of grants under New Brunswick Junior Mining Assistance
Program ("NBJMAP"). The NBJMAP is a financial assistance program designed for
junior mining companies that provides incentive contributions based on 50% of
eligible exploration costs up to $100,000 per project annually. It is intended
to increase the probability of finding economically viable mineral resources in
New Brunswick.


The NBJMAP funds will be spent on the newly acquired McIntyre ($20,000) and
Williams Brook ($20,000) properties located approximately 85 kilometres west of
Bathurst, New Brunswick. Both properties are underlain by northeast trending
mafic to felsic volcanics rocks and sediments within the Matapedia Basin just
west of the contact with the Miramichi Terrane. The properties are adjacent to
the regional scale Rocky Brook-Millstream and McIntyre faults.


In response to the tough equity markets, Hinterland has been concentrating its
exploration efforts in areas with low operating costs. Northwestern New
Brunswick offers a relatively inexpensive jurisdiction for exploration due to
its well-developed network of logging roads, proximity to towns and villages,
and local availability of trained exploration personnel and contractors.
Historically exploration in northern New Brunswick has been primarily in and
around the Bathurst base metal camp. The area of the properties has not been
found prospective for base metals and has been largely ignored by the resident
exploration community. Recent gold discoveries by local prospectors indicate
that this area may be more prospective for gold mineralization than previously
thought.


Prior work at McIntyre and Williams Brook has located a number of gold showings
in float and outcrop, gold-in-soil geochemical anomalies and geophysical
anomalies. Hinterland has commenced exploration on both properties with soil
geochemical, prospecting and rock sampling surveys. The goal of the work will be
to confirm the results of previous work and to generate new drill targets. 


"In these tough equity markets we are very grateful for the support provided by
the New Brunswick Junior Mining Assistance Program. This money will go a long
way towards generating drill targets at McIntyre and Williams Brook," commented
Mark Fekete, President and CEO.
