NEWS RELEASE TRANSMITTED BY CANADIAN CORPORATE NEWS FOR: FREEWEST RESOURCES CANADA INC. ME SYMBOL: FWR MARCH 16, 1999 Freewest Acquires Additional Claims Near Nuinsco's Discovery in the Lac Rocher Area of Quebec MONTREAL, QUEBEC--Freewest Resources Canada Inc. is pleased to announce that it has been granted the exclusive right to stake an area of approximately 1000 ha (62 claims) by the Ministry of Natural Resources of Quebec. The area lies within the limits of a territory reserved for hydro-electric generation. Freewest is free to carry out mineral exploration and exploitation on the claims subject to certain conditions stipulated by Hydro-Quebec. The claims adjoin the west boundary of Nuinsco Resources Ltd.?s Lac Rocher property over a distance of approximately 5 km. On January 21, 1999, Nuinsco reported a drill intersection of 61.5 meters (201.7 feet) of disseminated to massive sulphides with an average grade of 1.69 percent nickel and 0.49 percent copper including a 3.2 meter (10.5 feet) massive sulphide interval of 10.8 percent nickel located near the bottom of the hole. The Nuinsco discovery is related to a gabbro-norite intrusion marked by an isolated magnetic anomaly. On the new Freewest claims, no less than three similar magnetic anomalies are identified by MRNQ airborne geophysical data as well as a large number of INPUT electromagnetic anomalies. In addition to this exciting new acquisition, Freewest has expanded a 27 claim block held 50 percent with NDT Ventures Ltd. (NDE:VSE) to 40 claims (624 ha). Also, Freewest and its partner Prospectors Alliance Corp. (PALL:CDN) have resolved the issues surrounding the area under contention with Falconbridge Limited and Doner Minerals Ltd. in the Lac Rocher area. Some additional staking brings the Freewest-Prospectors Alliance property to 60 claims. Freewest now holds various interests in six properties consisting of a total of 311 claims (4952 ha) in close proximity to Nuinsco?s Lac Rocher project. Freewest is looking forward to exploring these properties with its joint venture partners and has already completed a detailed compilation of the geophysical and geological data available for the Lac Rocher region. -30-
