Nuinsco Announces Sale of Royalty by CBay Minerals

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 09/27/12 -- Nuinsco Resources Limited ("Nuinsco" or "the Company") (TSX: NWI) today announced that its 50%-owned subsidiary CBay Minerals Inc. ("CBay") has sold its 2% NSR royalty on the Eastmain property to Eastmain Mines Inc., Virginia Mines Inc., and Franco-Nevada Corporation for aggregate consideration of $900,000.

The NSR royalty on the Eastmain Property was part of the Chibougamau assets that were jointly acquired by Nuinsco and Ocean Partners Investments Limited in late 2011.

CBay owns eight past-producing mines representing 75% of total copper and gold production from the Lac Dore Complex in northern Quebec's Chibougamau mining camp. The Lac Dore Complex has produced 47.6 million tons of ore containing 1.6 billion pounds of copper and 3.2 million ounces of gold. CBay also owns several development-stage properties, including the partially-developed Corner Bay copper deposit, a permitted 3,000 ton per day mill and tailings facility and a 96,000 acre land position also in the underexplored Chibougamau mining camp.

"CBay is actively working to restructure its valuable suite of pre-production, processing and exploration assets, and this transaction will help to finance these activities without diluting the shareholders," said CBay's CEO Roland Horst.
