Northern Star Announces Corporate Update

Northern Star Mining Corp. (TSX VENTURE:NSM)(OTCQX:NSMSF) (Northern Star Mining
or the "Company") is pleased to announce the following update on our activities
and plans for the balance of the 2010 year and beyond. CEO George Pirie has,
since commencing employment in April 2010, reviewed all of the Company's
operations, budgets, assets and balance sheet information and is now in the
position to begin to set goals for the Company in 2010 and beyond.


Production Plan

Northern Star had previously set an objective to achieve production from its
Midway and Mackenzie Break deposits by late 2010. This is not a credible
objective nor realisable goal this year.


New geological interpretation of the Mackenzie Break deposit, including the
discovery of more gold bearing veins will require that a detailed geological
review be made of the deposit.


Additionally it is imperative to complete interpretation of all historical and
current drilling on the Mackenzie Break and Midway properties to develop current
geological models and resources.


Revised Resource Calculation

The first priority of the Company will be to deliver a revised resource
estimate, in 43-101 format, by no later than December 2010, for each of
MacKenzie Break, the Callahan and the Midway deposits. It is estimated this will
cost $8,000,000 and will be directed under the leadership of Eddy Canova PGeo.
The scope of work is as follows:


Midway: This project will require the update of more than 30,000 meters drilled
on the Midway project alone. An additional 30,000 meters of drilling from both
underground and surface is required to reclassify the historical reserve on the
project and follow up on previously released results both historical and
current.


Callahan: The exploration model being followed here is "Goldex" style
mineralisation. The drilling planned here is 14,500 meters to reclassify
historical drilling and follow up on targets in eleven separate zones.


MacKenzie Break: There is 6,000 meters of diamond drilling planned for this
property to update the historical 200,000 ounce resource. Reinterpretation of
historical drilling and interpretation of current drilling indicates that an
open pit model be investigated on the deposit.


The data will be compiled and models created in Gemcom.

Capital Restructuring and Raising

NSM has a current and long term debt balance of over $43 million, fully secured
by the Companies assets and payable within fourteen months. Management believes
this is an unsustainable obligation considering the stage the Company is at with
respect to its production plans. Accordingly, the Company will seek to
restructure and reduce its debt in the near future.


The Company announces that it has retained Cormark Securities Inc. and Toll
Cross Securities to assist it in restructuring its outstanding debt and raising
capital in support of the engineering and drilling programs.
