Norsemont Mining Inc.
("Norsemont" or "the Company") (TSX-V: NOM;  Frankfurt: N8S; WKN:
A0DQKK; OTC-BB: NOMFF; ISIN: CA6565291045) is pleased to  announce

     Note 1: Copper equivalent Values (CuEQ) are estimated using long-term
     metal prices including: Copper US$1.20 per lb, Molybdenum US$8.00 per lb,
     Gold US$450 per oz., and Silver US$7.50 per oz. Adjustment factors to
     account for differences in relative metallurgical recoveries for gold,
     copper and molybdenum will depend upon the completion of definitive
     metallurgical testing. CuEQ equals Cu per cent plus Mo percent times
     (8.00/1.20) plus Au grams per tonne times 14.47/(1.20(x)22.05) plus Ag
     grams per tonne times 0.24/(1.20(x)22.05).
Drill holes CO-06-O47, -049 and -051 are step-out holes in the
Constancia Zone that contain mixed chalcocite and chalcopyrite.
Drill hole CO-06-048 is an infill hole in the Constancia Zone that
contains mixed secondary chalcocite and chalcopyrite.
Drill holes CO-06-050 and -052 are step-out holes in the San Jose
Zone  with chalcopyrite mineralization in skarn.
The majority of future holes will be step-out holes on 100 meter
centers, similar to the program carried out in 2005, for the purpose
of  calculating a resource estimate for the property. Two drill rigs
are  currently operating on site.
"We are highly encouraged by these results, as they continue to
push  out the extent of the mineralized footprint of both the
Constancia and San  Jose zones," said Marc E. Levy, President & CEO
of Norsemont Mining Inc.
The drilling program and geological studies at the Constancia
project  are being supervised by Dr. Thomas A. Henricksen, P. Geo.,
Norsemont's  Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101. Mr. Henricksen
has reviewed and  approved information contained in this news
release. Core samples are cut  with a diamond saw, with one-half of
the core placed in sealed bags, and  shipped to ALS Chemex Assay Labs
in Lima, Peru. The program includes an  extensive quality control
program for assaying which includes the  systematic use of standards,
blanks, and field duplicate samples. Secondary  laboratories are also
used for check assaying.
A plan map with drill hole locations is available on Norsemont's
website at www.norsemont.com.
