(\"Northern Shield\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV: NRN) is pleased to announce that it has commenced this season's exploration programs at Root & Cellar (\"Root & Cellar\" or the \"Project\"). Root & Cellar is located on the\n \n Burin Peninsula\n \n in southeastern\n \n Newfoundland\n \n . Northern Shield can earn up to a 100% interest in the Project, which is being explored for epithermal gold-silver and porphyry-copper mineralization.\n \n \n A ground Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey is underway with some mechanical trenching to take place concurrently and further trenching after the IP survey is completed.  The IP survey lines are being run in an east-west direction with the objective of better defining the northerly-trending feeder structures that will be targeted in the following diamond drilling program. Current interpretation indicates it is these northerly-trending structures that carry the higher-grade gold including visible gold. Trenching will focus on exposing the feeder mineralization where they are interpreted to come near to surface.\n \n \n \n \"We are very much looking forward to seeing the IP results and testing these targets with trenching if accessible from surface and, subsequent diamond drilling. We believe that these programs will be catalytic for the growth of Root & Cellar\"\n \n \n \n \n \n -\n \n Ian Bliss\n \n ,\n \n \n \n \n Northern Shield President and CEO\n \n \n \n \n This news release was reviewed by\n \n Christine Vaillancourt\n \n , P.
