TSXV Trading Symbol: NOT December 1st, 2006 NORONT INTERSECTS MORE HI-GRADE AT WINDFALL LAKE NORONT RESOURCES LTD. (NOT-TSX-V) is pleased to announce the following results from diamond drilling on its wholly owned Windfall Lake property in Urban Township, Quebec. The fall 2006 drilling program has been completed with 12 drill holes totaling 3297.9 meters. The holes tested the mineralized gold zones previously discovered by Noront and warranting further testing as recommended by Tracy Armstrong (a qualified geologist in the province of Quebec) of P&E Mining Consultants (Brampton, Ontario). The first three holes (NOT 06-97 to 99) failed to encounter any new significant gold mineralization, however the fourth hole (NOT-06-100) encountered three significant zones of gold mineralization, the best of which covered a total width of 4.80 meters (15.7 feet) consisted of six individual split core samples, two of which contained visible gold. Each of these latter six samples were assayed twice (using two split/separate pulps of the same sample) with the normal fire assay method and a third time (a third split/separate pulp of the same sample) with a metallic screen test. The assayed, weighted average of the three assay tests for the six individual samples over the 4.80 meters (15.7 feet) were; 1792.9 g/t (52.30 oz/t), 800.1 g/t (23.33 oz/t) from the fire assays and 1327.9 g/t (38.74 oz/t) for the metallic screening assay.
