"Even before the recent troubles in South Africa, the high operational and capital costs have been making the extraction of Platinum Group Metals (PGM's) less and less economical in that country. With the unrest however, there is developing sentiment among risk averse investors to seek out more stable, jurisdictions. Pacific North West Capital (PFN) River Valley PGM project in mining friendly Sudbury, Ontario is an increasingly attractive investment. River Valley continues to make progress in exploration and resource definition and has become one of the largest underdeveloped PGM deposits in North America. We see a bright future for the project and the companies with platinum group metal projects in North America."

Corporate Update
In the past two years the Company has recognized the need to reach out to, and develop business relationships with, the Asian community. To this end, we have engaged a number of Asian-based financial contacts to assist in methodically cultivating relationships. Subsequent to our most recent non-brokered private placement announcement, our Company's President, Dr. Bill Stone and Mr. Brian Windatt, Marketing, gave presentations at the Academy and Finance conferences in Hong Kong and Singapore. Through these conferences, significant inroads were made in building an Asian-based business and investment network.
With regard to the River Valley project, the current metallurgical study, that is close to completion will be an important milestone. Knowing the metal recovery potential from our primary mineralized zones, will assist in undertaking a market research study for River Valley metal concentrate in 2013. We are also continuing efforts to seek out a strategic option joint venture partner in the upcoming year.
