TSX Venture Exchange symbol FNR

SASKATOON, Sept. 13, 2013 /CNW/ - 49 North Resources Inc. ("49 North") announced today its intention, and its receipt of all required regulatory approvals including approval by the TSX Venture Exchange, to make a normal course issuer bid (the "Bid") for up to 2,105,329 of its common shares (the "Shares"), representing approximately 10% of 49 North's public float.

The Bid will commence on September 17, 2013 and continue until the earlier of September 16, 2014 and the date by which 49 North has acquired the maximum 2,105,329 Shares which may be purchased under the Bid. The Bid will be made through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange and the purchase and payment for the securities will be made in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange requirements at the market price of the Shares at the time of acquisition. All Shares purchased by 49 North under the Bid will be cancelled.

49 North has appointed MGI Securities Inc. as its broker to conduct the normal course issuer bid transactions.

Management believes that the Shares have been trading in a price range which does not adequately reflect their value and that the purchase of the Shares under the Bid will enhance shareholder value in general. 49 North has purchased 265,950 Shares at an average price of $1.95 pursuant to a normal course issuer bid during the period from September 15, 2012 to August 31, 2013.
