Property NewsMarch 12, 2009 Freewest Resources announced results from the late 2008 diamond drilling program completed on its Dalhousie Mountain property in Quebec, Canada. Diamond drilling yields significant near-surface vanadium mineralization including 0.58% vanadium oxide, 30.61% iron and 2.93% titanium over 30.53 m from 11.75 m in hole DM-01-08. March 12, 2009 Announced results from the late 2008 diamond drilling program completed on the Dalhousie Mountain property. Diamond drilling yields significant near-surface vanadium mineralization including 0.58% V2O5 over 30.53 m from 11.75 m in hole DM-01-08, 0.67% V2O5 over 12.94 m from 17.76 m in hole DM-03-08and 0.64% V2O5 over 24.00 m from 37.17 m in hole DM-04-08. September 21, 2007 Recently completed work on the Property by Freewest and EX-IN included the completion of a high resolution airborne time-domain electromagnetic survey (TDEM) and a brief follow-up prospecting program. The TDEM survey delineated 2 broad groups of conductors, known as the eastern group and the western group. Preliminary beep mat surveying and sampling of one of the western conductors yielded assays of 0.87 percent nickel at one locale and 0.44 percent copper, 0.31 percent nickel at a second location within layered gabbroic host rocks. Such mineralization is intimately associated with a strong 200-metre long conductor delineated by the TDEM survey. Also closely associated with the western group of conductors, is a sizeable area of vanadium mineralization. Concurrent work by EX-IN, also identified a large area of vanadium mineralization with a potential outcrop area of 1.2 kilometres by 0.2 kilometres, yielding assays of up to 1.27% V2O5 from blasted outcrop samples. This mineralization and associated conductor has never been tested by diamond drilling.
