The management of Alberta Star met with members of the Deline Land Corporation to confirm the current status of its Access & Benefits Agreement with the Deline Land Corporation representing the Sahtu & Métis people of Deline, Deline District, Great Bear Lake, NT. The meeting established that the “Access & Benefits Agreement” will be honoured by both signatories to the agreement, Alberta Star and the Deline Land Corp.. Attending the meeting were Peter Menacho, President Deline Land Corporation, Raymond Tutcho, Chief of the Sahtu Dene (Deline District), Leonard Kenny, Director, Danny Gaudet, Chief Negotiator & Deline Self Government Team, Orlena Modeste, Environmental and Uranium advisor and Morris Neyelle, Uranium advisor, Deline First Nation.

The Sahtu Dene & Metis peoples and First Nation businesses have benefited from our continued friendship and partnership with Alberta Star and its management team. We look forward to continue working closely with the Company in the coming years”.

Alberta Star is one of the largest employers in the Sahtu district. One third of all exploration expenditures in the Sahtu District of the Northwest Territories were directly attributed to Alberta Star’s regional exploration programs.

Tim Coupland, President & CEO of Alberta Star Development Corp. commented: “This is another vote of confidence for Alberta Star enhancing the Company’s probability of success in this remote region of Canada. The Company has created a strong, long term partnership and working relationship with the Deline Land Corp. and the Sahtu Dene & Metis peoples of the Deline District, NT. The Company considers its long term relationship and the well being of the community of Deline, as the cornerstone to a successful and long term working relationship with the Sahtu Dene & Metis peoples.

The Company’s management continues to work tirelessly to engage, inform and address all of the relevant issues with the Sahtu Dene peoples through a process of extensive consultation and ongoing dialogue. This consultation process was designed to educate and highlight the various growth phases of both the Eldorado & Contact Lake IOCG & uranium Projects and the long term opportunities and benefits associated with the successful development of the Projects. The Company views the continued endorsement of these two Class “A” permit amendments as confirmation of the Company’s long term policy strategy of responsible and sustainable development. These development philosophies combined with First Nations community outreach programs have created a strong partnership and working relationship with the Deline Land Corp. and the Sahtu Dene & Metis peoples of Deline, NT.

Permitting - Sustainable Permitting Strategies

The Company has implemented sound business models for the long term sustainable development for the Sahtu region in the Northwest Territories. The Company gives its unwavering support to the NWT Chamber of Mines and its pro-mining exploration initiatives and the implementation of more reasonable permitting strategies by Federal and Territorial governments on grass-roots exploration projects. The Company feels this is pivotal to industry and essential to long term sustainable and responsible growth of the region.

These include the Echo Bay Silver Mine which produced 23,779,178 ounces of silver and the Eldorado Uranium Mine which produced 15 million pounds of uranium and 8 million ounces of silver (Normin NTGO: Senes Report 2005). The Contact Lake Silver and Uranium Mine, Bonanza and El Bonanza Silver and Uranium mines are included within the Company’s land ownership package. Olympic Dam style volcanic-hosted hydrothermal iron-oxide copper, gold style of deposits are attractive targets for exploration and development due to their poly-metallic nature, high unit value and enormous size and grade tonnage potential.
