About Nighthawk
Nighthawk is a Canadian-based gold
exploration company with 100% ownership of a district-scale land
position within the Indin Lake Greenstone Belt, located
approximately 200km north of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. Within this
largely underexplored Archean gold camp, the Company has identified
a number of high-priority targets all centered around a growing
deposit. These targets lie within large regional deformation zones
that contain gold mineralization which warrant additional
exploration and follow-up. The main goals and objectives over the
next 12-24 months will be to carry out exploration to support
mineral resource expansion opportunities as well as to foster new,
near-surface discoveries that support the global mineral resource
base.
The Company has an experienced and dedicated team with a track
record of successfully advancing projects and is well funded and
supported to advance its near-term goals and objectives.

Forward-looking information is based on the opinions and
estimates of management at the date the information is made, and is

to identify important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those contained in forward-looking
