LONDON, ONTARIO, Fortune Minerals Limited (TSX: FT) (OTCQX: FTMDF) (“Fortune” or the “Company”) (www.fortuneminerals.com) is pleased to announce that the Government of the Northwest Territories (“GNWT”), Department of Transportation has submitted the requisite permit applications to the Wek’èezhìi Land and Water Board, to build a public highway to the community of Whati. The application package was developed by the GNWT, with the support of the Tlicho Government for this 94-kilometre all-season road which would follow a former all-land winter road route to significantly reduce construction costs. Whati is 50 km south of Fortune’s proposed NICO gold-cobalt-bismuth-copper development that has already received its environmental assessment approval for a mine and concentrator, and a spur road from the public highway to the mine.
