February 1, 2008 Update
Newport Gold Inc. has not yet received an interpretation of any assay results from the 2007 field season. But we thought our shareholders might be interested in some pictures of the 2007 field season on the Burnt Basin Property in British Columbia, Canada. These pictures were taken by Linda Caron M.Sc. our Senior Consulting Geologist, Burnt Basin Project. For more information regarding Newport’s filings and reports(43-101) please visit http://sec.gov/edgar.shtml.

This picture is from the Halifax showing Massive sphalerite-magnetite-galena mineralization occurs in old workings, sloughed cat trenches, and on the historic dumps. The excavator was used to strip the area adjoining the historic open cut, for detailed mapping and sampling, see photo album for more pictures. A long trench was also dug nearby, which exposes additional mineralization. |

This picture is from the Upper Eva Bell showing. Select grab samples collected during 2006 returned values to 576 g/t Ag, 3.05% Cu, 7.03% Pb and 22.6% Zn, with 840 ppb Au and to 1270 g/t Ag, 10.8% Cu, 1.83% Pb and 5.34% Zn, with 490 ppb Au. During the 2007 work program, the excavator was used to strip off a large area to better expose the mineralization for mapping and representative sampling. |
