VANCOUVER, Jan. 8 - Novawest Resources Inc. (TSXV - "NVE"; Frankfurt - "NWN"), is pleased to announce that the second phase of the Company's Radiometric/Mag/EM Airborne Survey is now underway. In late December 2007, 539.2 kms of the planned survey were completed prior to shut-down for the holiday season. Weather permitting; the remainder of the survey will now be completed, starting today. The helicopter-borne survey is being flown over the Company's 100% owned 265 claim, 31,088 acres (12,500 hectares), Centre Uranium Property. The property is situated in the historic Chibougamau mining camp, Quebec. Once the Airborne survey is completed and pending assay results from earlier surface exploration have been received and analyzed, Novawest's geological team will blend the data for an overall analysis of the project.
Novawest has also now acquired additional claims to be included in the Centre Uranium Project.
New maps of Novawest's extensive Chibougamau interests will be available for viewing at the Company's booth at the upcoming Cambridge Mining Conference Show in Vancouver on January 20th and 21st, 2007.
