Uranium North Resource Corp. ("Uranium North" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: UNR) reports that a two year land use permit and five year water license for drilling on the Company's 100% owned Mallery gold-silver project in Nunavut has been issued. A contract with Lantech Drilling Services Inc. is finalized and mobilization of the drill from Baker Lake to the Mallery project will begin shortly.

Plans for the program are being finalized and will include drilling to test:


--  the frequency of veining and open pit potential of the Stockwork zone
--  a 200 metre wide resistivity high, on the east side of the Stockwork
    zone
--  the extent and width of the 17 Vein where samples assayed up to 54 g/T
    Au 272 g/T Ag
--  the Western zone, where a grab sample returned 8.6 g/T from a 3 metre
    wide vein
--  the Tundra zone mineralization.

"We have some fantastic targets to drill on Mallery. This is the first time this area has been drilled so the potential for a significant discovery is quite possible," says Mark Kolebaba, President and CEO of Uranium North Resources.

The resistivity high, coincident with and flanking the quartz Stockwork zone, is a priority target that may indicate intense quartz veining and silica alteration. Gold and silver mineralization at Mallery is associated with quartz veining and silica alteration.

In addition to drilling, detailed ground magnetic surveying and prospecting are planned. A significant gold grain anomaly that has been identified 3 kilometres to the south will also be investigated.
