About this update from Captor Capital Corp

TORONTO, Feb. 12 /CNW/ - NWT Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: NWT; OTCBB: NWURF) announced today that Azimut Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: AZM) has accepted that the defaults described in Azimut's Notice of Default dated December 17, 2007 have been cured by NWT, with respect to the North Rae and Daniel Lake uranium properties located in the Ungava Bay region in northern Quebec and under option from Azimut Exploration Inc. (TSX-V: AZM). In its Curative Notice, delivered on January 30, 2008 in response to Azimut's Notice of Default, NWT disputed that it was in default. According to Azimut, the extensive documentation and data provided by NWT in its Curative Notice has adequately resolved the issues raised by the Notice of Default. "We are pleased that this dispute has been resolved and that we can now move forward with Azimut on the continued exploration of North Rae and Daniel Lake, which we believe represent a new uranium district in Canada," said Marek J. Kreczmer, President and CEO of NWT. "We trust that continued cooperation between our two companies will result in significant benefits for our shareholders through the aggressive development of our joint properties." NWT has the right to acquire up to 65% interest from Azimut in the North Rae Uranium Project, where results to date have revealed the potential for a new uranium district. NWT also has an option to acquire up to 65% ownership in the Daniel Lake Uranium Project, which neighbors North Rae. North Rae and Daniel Lake cover a total area of more than 300,000 acres (123,500 hectares). ABOUT NWT URANIUM: NWT Uranium Corp.

This news release includes certain "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Without limitation, statements regarding potential mineralization and resources, exploration results, and future plans and objectives of the Company are forward looking statements that involve various degrees of risk. The following are important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements: changes in the worldwide price of mineral commodities, general market conditions, risks inherent in mineral exploration, risks associated with development, construction and mining operations, the uncertainty of future profitability and the uncertainty of access to additional capital. Potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature; there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource on the North Rae Uranium Project and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.
