MISSION STATEMENT

Northquest Ltd. was formed to conduct exploration for gold and other metals in Canada, Mali, and other jurisdictions. In order to decrease geologic risk as much as possible, the emphasis is on exploring for gold in permissive rocks and in jurisdictions and geologic terranes which have not achieved exploration maturity. In order to acquire large, prospective exploration projects in areas that have not reached exploration maturity, the Company will accept a certain amount of country risk.
