North American Palladium's Lac des Iles Mine is Canada's only
primary producer of platinum group metals and is one of the largest
open pit bulk mineable palladium reserves in the world. The Company
also earns substantial revenue from by-product nickel, platinum,
gold and copper. In addition to operating Lac des Iles, the
Company's mandate is to expand its production profile through an
aggressive exploration campaign, designed to increase its exposure
to base and precious metals. Palladium use in the auto industry
continues to be an important component in controlling exhaust
emissions as mandated by more stringent hydrocarbon emissions
standards for cars, particularly in the United States, Europe and
Japan. Palladium is also used in the dental, electronics, jewellery
and chemical sectors. Forward-Looking Statements - Certain
