Note to editors: 
 
Norseman Gold plc. is an AIM listed and ASX listed Australian gold production 
company, which acquired the Norseman Gold Project in May 2007, Australia's 
longest continually running gold operation.  The Norseman Gold Project is 
located in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia in the highly prospective 
Norseman-Wiluna greenstone belt, 725km east of Perth and 186km from Kalgoorlie. 
 
Gold was first found on the Norseman field in 1894 and over the last 65 years, 
it has produced over 5.5 million oz of gold.  The project is currently producing 
from three high-grade narrow-vein underground mines - the Bullen, the Harlequin 
and the OK Declines.  The Company has also commenced development of its fourth 
mine, the North Royal Open Pit.  Currently, it has a total resource inventory of 
3.8 million oz of gold at an average grade of 5.3 g/t. 
 
The tenements cover a 2,180 sq km area centred on the Norseman Township.  The 
landholding comprises 221 tenements consisting of 16 Exploration Licences, 107 
Mining Licences, 64 Prospecting Licences, 15 Miscellaneous Licences, 5 
Exploration Licence Applications, 13 Prospecting Licence Applications and 1 
Mining Lease Application. 
 
The Company's strategy is focused on extending the mine life through the 
conversion of resources into reserves and identifying additional resources and 
obtaining additional ore for the operating mill through the development of a 
fourth and subsequent mines. 
 
The current mill capacity is 720,000 tonnes per annum and, at capacity, the 
treatment plant can produce up to 140,000 ounces of recovered gold. 
 
The Company has fifteen advanced resource projects under review of which three 
have pre-development work being undertaken on them.  It is anticipated that at 
least one if not all the pre-development projects will develop into mining 
propositions.
