Platinex hires Nolan as Indian adviser

Mr. James Trusler reports

PLATINEX WELCOMES FIRST NATIONS' ADVISOR, CHIEF GLENN NOLAN

Platinex Inc. has retained the services of Chief Glenn Nolan to facilitate contact with first nations communities and provide a hands-on aboriginal perspective for the company. Mr. Nolan brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to his role as adviser. Interestingly, during the late 1970s and 1980s, Mr. Nolan worked extensively in exploration, conducting geophysical surveys throughout Canada, which gives him valuable insight into the programs and procedures Platinex aims to employ on its properties in co-operation with first nations groups.

Mr. Nolan is the elected chief of the Missanabie Cree First Nation; currently serves as the second vice-president of the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada; and is president of Learning Together, a non-profit organization sharing information and experience with aboriginal communities across Canada and internationally.

James Trusler, president and chief executive officer of Platinex, stated, "Chief Nolan has demonstrated strong leadership in both the first nations community and the mineral exploration industry; he is a distinguished addition to our Platinex team."
