Northern Abitibi Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE:NAI) ("Northern Abitibi") is pleased
to provide additional trenching results from the Viking gold property in
Newfoundland, along with assay results for drill holes 122, 123, 127 and 128. 


Trenching Program

Trenching and prospecting at the end of the 2011 field program have resulted in
the discovery of 3 new zones of mineralization. A grab sample from a large
boulder of altered granite from the northeast end of the Viking trend has
returned 12.1 grams per tonne (g/t) gold. This result is on trend with
previously released high grade samples, including 9.9 g/t gold and 52 g/t silver
over 1.4 metres, and verifies the presence and continuity of high grade
mineralization in the northern part of the Viking Trend. These samples are from
a newly outlined zone of alteration which is distinct from the Thor Trend and
which has now been outlined at surface over an area roughly 1300 metres long by
150 metres wide.


Trenching of an induced polarization geophysical anomaly in the central part of
the Viking property has encountered a high grade zone grading 5.5 g/t gold over
1.3 metres. This mineralized zone occurs within a larger 50 metre wide zone of
pyrite-bearing alteration containing gold values ranging from trace to 1.9 g/t.


Prospecting has discovered a new area of mineralization located 100 metres
north-northeast of the Asgard trend near the eastern edge of the claim block.
This zone is interpreted to represent the northern continuation of the Asgard
trend. Sericite altered and pyritic-quartz veined granite has been found and
sampling of outcrop from the zone has returned gold values up to 1.3 g/t opening
up a new zone for further work.


Drilling Program

Holes 122 and 123 are the final 2 holes drilled into the Thor Trend and targeted
the northern extension of the zone. Hole 122 encountered anomalous gold from 104
to 154 metres depth including 9.3 metres grading 0.8 g/t gold. Hole 123
encountered anomalous gold from 114 to 167 metres depth including an 18 metre
zone grading 0.5 g/t gold from 147.5 to 165.5 metres. Holes 122 and 123 have
extended the Thor Trend another 50 metres to the north and show that the zone is
still open to the north and at depth. 


Hole 127 tested an induced polarization chargeability anomaly in a mostly
covered zone in the central part of the Viking property. The recently completed
geophysical survey has defined this chargeability anomaly over a strike length
exceeding 1000 metres, with widths up to 100 metres, and to date it has only
been tested with one drill hole. Hole 127 intersected altered pyritic intrusive
rocks with anomalous gold mineralization from 39.7 to 162.1 metres depth,
including 11.8 metres grading 0.2 g/t gold from 43.2 to 55 metres depth and 47.5
metres grading 0.2 g/t gold from 85 to 132.5 metres depth. The highest interval
in the hole returned 0.9 g/t gold over 0.85 metres. This is the first drill test
of this large anomaly, and initial results are encouraging, demonstrating the
zone contains significant gold anomalies and that further exploration of the
zone is warranted. This zone is one of several chargeability anomalies
identified during the recent geophysical survey.


Hole 128 tested a portion of Thor's Cross near the southern part of the Thor
Trend, and intersected anomalous gold with values up to 0.2 g/t. Results from
holes 122, 123, and 127 are summarized in the table below.

Program Update - The 2011 exploration program at Viking is now complete. A total
of 4698.2 metres of drilling in 25 holes have been drilled during the program.
Preliminary results of an induced polarization geophysical survey have been
received and show several new geophysical targets that remain to be explored.
Results of the geophysical survey will be released once they have been finalized
by the geophysical contractor. 


Samples from holes 124, 125, and 126, drilled into the northern part of the
Viking Trend, have been submitted for a 4-acid digestion procedure including
tellurium analyses. The final assay results for these holes are expected within
the next few weeks and will be released once they have been received and
compiled.


The Viking Property - The Viking Property contains numerous high grade veins
within larger bulk tonnage style zones of gold mineralization located within a 3
to 4 kilometre long gold-in-soil anomaly. Drilling highlights include high grade
intercepts of 5.75 metres grading 33.7 g/t gold, 3.7 metres grading 50.1 g/t
gold, 0.5 metres grading 218.8 g/t gold as well as lower grade intercepts
including 27 metres grading 7.9 g/t gold, 23.0 metres grading 5.1 g/t gold, and
57.4 metres grading 2.8 g/t gold. The Thor Trend contains an uncut Inferred
Mineral Resource containing 6,293,000 tonnes grading 0.65 gold (131,511 ounces
of gold), is located in the mining friendly jurisdiction of Newfoundland and
Labrador, and has excellent access and local infrastructure, with a paved
highway and power line located less than one kilometre from the project.
Northern Abitibi has a 100% property interest in the Viking project subject to a
2% to 4% sliding scale net smelter royalty held by Altius Resources. A detailed
description of the Viking project is available on our website (www.naminco.ca).


Quality Control - All drill core is logged, photographed, and cut in half with a
diamond saw. Half of the core is bagged and sent to Eastern Analytical for
analyses while the other half is archived and stored on site for verification
and reference purposes. Gold is assayed by standard fire assay methods with
additional elements analyzed by Induced Coupled Plasma (ICP). Samples with
greater than 5 g/t gold and samples containing visible gold are re-assayed using
a metallic sieve procedure to reduce the nugget effect created by free gold
particles in the samples.


Duplicate samples, blanks, and certified standards are included with every
sample batch and then checked to ensure proper quality assurance and quality
control (QA/QC). Select samples are also sent to an outside laboratory for
independent analyses as part of a check assay procedure. 


Northern Abitibi - Northern Abitibi's technical team of experienced,
professional geologists is committed to assembling and advancing a portfolio of
gold and base metal projects from opportunities within Canada, Mexico and the
United States. Northern Abitibi is focused on identifying high potential North
American projects and exploring and developing them in a responsible and
cost-effective manner.
