VANCOUVER, Jan. 10, 2012 /CNW/ - Pacific North West Capital Corp.

is pleased to announce assay results for nine more drill holes in the River Valley 2011 Phase I Exploration program on its 100% owned River Valley PGM‐Gold Property, 70 km from Sudbury, Ontario.  The drill holes in the Dana North area continue to intersect high grade PGM mineralization over wide intervals within the breccia unit on the footwall contact of the River Valley Intrusion.

Dana North-Southern Section

Drill holes DN030 through DN033 were collared in southern parts of the Dana North area and focused on infilling gaps in the previous drilling (Figure 1). Holes DN030 and DN031 were drilled to test the shallower parts of the Breccia Zone. DN030 intersected 14.5 metres of 2.9 gpt 3E from 3.5 metres down hole. These two holes extendeded the PGM mineralization up-dip closer to surface by approximately 40 metres. The PGM mineralization is well exposed at surface and this shallow target represents just one of several important targets that have been identified for drill testing and ultimately extension of the mineral resources to surface.

On the other hand, drill holes DN032 and DN033 were designed to test for the presence of PGM mineralization at depth, thereby expanding the mineralized zone down-dip (Figure 2). Drill Hole DN032 was collared at the same setup as DN033 (Table 2) and drilled to the east to test the deeper extension of the mineralized zone. This hole intersected 33 metres of 2.11 gpt 3E from 325 metres down hole, including 7 metres of 5.2 gpt 3E from 332 metres down hole. The continuity of mineralization in this area was confirmed in hole DN033, which intersected 54 metres of 2.08 gpt 3E from 256 metres down hole, including 12 metres at 3.4 gpt 3E from 267 metres.

In addition hole DN032, the deepest hole drilled in this phase of exploration, tested a second target above the footwall contact. There, DN032 intersected mineralization from 2 metres of 1.3 gpt 3E from 447 metres down hole (383 metres vertical from surface).

Dana North-Northern Section

In order to infill gaps in the drilling and test continuity in the northern part of the Dana North area, five drill holes were drilled in two sections to test approximately 100 metres strike length of the mineralization. Drill holes DN034 through DN036 were collared on section 8+20N (Figure 3) and drilled to the east (Table 2). Drill holes DN034 and DN035 were designed to test the deeper parts of this section and intersected wide intervals of mineralization. In hole DN034, the entire intersection of the breccia zone was mineralized (Table 1).

Drill Holes DN037 and DN038 were collared on section 8+70N (Figure 4) and drilled to the east. Hole DN038, intersected 27 metres of 1.87 gpt 3E from 171 metres down hole, including 4 metres of 2.95 gpt 3E from 171 metres to 175 metres down hole.

To date, 53 holes have been drilled in three phases (1A-C) for a total of approximately 15,000.  Phases IA and IB and part of Phase IC focused on infill drilling in the areas that required more data. The remainder of Phase 1C focused on identifying new areas of mineralization in the favourable breccia unit, with the ultimate objective of expanding the mineral resources. Data from this resource drilling has been combined with that from approximately 111,000 metres in 590 holes drilled previously up to 2005, and delivered to Wardrop Engineering for a mineral resource update. The resource update will be completed in the first quarter of 2012.

Exploration Drilling

The exploration phase of drilling at River Valley in 2011-2012, is focused primarily on drilling in the interior of the River Valley Intrusion Complex (RVIC) (see Press Release dated December 8th 2011).  Six exploration holes for approximately 1700 metres have been completed in the Dragon and Spade Zone and encountered favourable olivine-bearing gabbronorite units in the RVIC. Core logging, sampling and assaying is in progress. Assay results are pending for the laboratory.  Drilling is planned to resume shortly on the East Banshee target, which will test one of the new targets identified during a 2011 three-dimensional (3D) IP survey.

About River Valley Project

On April 20(th), 2011 Pacific North West Capital (PFN) announced that it commenced the Phase I of a five million Dollars, 15,500 metre drill program for its 100% owned River Valley PGM Project. As ofOctober 2011, PFN completed more than 13,500 metres of drilling and more than 140 line km of 3D IP geophysics survey. Work to date at River Valley suggests that the best potential for economic accumulations of PGM-Cu-Ni sulphide mineralization is within the Breccia Zone. This zone includes the main mineralized breccia or main zone. The main zone occurs within about 20 metres of the intrusive contact with Archean gneisses. This contact zone extends for over 9 km of prospective strike length, hosting the current defined resource. The latest mineral resource estimate in accordance with the guidelines set out by NI43‐101 was published in 2006 and the results are summarized as follows:

------------------------------

NI43-101 Compliant 2006 Mineral Resources for River Valley


-- Measured Resources:
7.99 million tonnes grading 1.33 g/t p palladium, 0.44 g/t
platinum, 0.08 g/t gold, 0.12% copper and 0.02% nickel using a
cut-off grade of 1.00 g/t palladium + platinum (Pd+Pt).

-- Indicated Resources:
11.31 million tonnes grading 1.08 g/t palladium, 0.36 g/t
platinum,0.07 g/t gold, 0.10% copper and 0.02% nickel using a
cut-off grade of 1.00 g/t Pd+Pt.

-- Inferred Resources:
0.88 million tones grading 1.36 g/t palladium,, 0.47 g/t
platinum , 0.07 g/t gold, 0.10% copper and 0.02% nickel using a
cut-off grade of 1.00 g/t Pd+Pt

------------------------------

PFN's objective for River Valley is to delineate sufficient resources to establish a multi-million tonne open pit PGM mine.

Completion of a new NI43-101 mineral resource estimate is scheduled for the end of first quarter of 2012.

About Pacific North West Capital Corp:

Pacific North West Capital Corp. is a mineral exploration company whose corporate philosophy is to be a project generator, explorer and project operator with the objective of optioning/joint venturing its projects through toproduction. In January 2011, Pacific North West Capital Corp. successfully negotiated the 100% acquisition of the River Valley PGM Project from Anglo Platinum Limited, which makes Anglo Platinum the largest shareholder of PFN. The River Valley PGM project is one of North America's newest and largest primary platinum group metals (PGM) deposits. The project has excellent infrastructure support and is located 100 km from Sudbury, Ontario, one of Canada's largest mining centres with two large mineral processing facilities that have excess capacity.

Pacific North West Capital Corp. is well-funded with an experienced management team and the ability to take advantage of its growing asset base in platinum group metals (defined as 'PGM' above), gold and base metals. To that end, the Company is in the process of adding key technical and financial people to our management, advisory team and board of directors. PFN has approximately $5.4 million in working capital and securities and no debt. 

The Company has PGM, gold and base metal projects in BC, Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alaska and continues to acquire additional PGM, precious metals and base metals projects on an international scale.

The Company has recently begun significantly expanding its PGM project portfolio in Canada and the U.S. (Alaska) and will be releasing updates when these acquisitions have been completed.

Pacific North West Capital Corp. is an International Metals Group Company.
