THE FOLLOWING DISCLOSURE WAS INCLUDED IN ITEM 8.01 OF A CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION BY NORD RESOURCES CORPORATION ON DECEMBER 1, 2006:

On December 1, 2006, Nord Resources Corporation (“Nord”) announced that Platinum Diversified Mining, Inc.’s (“Platinum”) extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, relating to Platinum’s proposed acquisition of Nord in the all-cash merger transaction (the “Merger”) announced on October 23, 2006, was reconvened and held at 5:00 p.m. (United Kingdom time) on November 30, 2006. This followed the adjournment of the previous meeting, on November 27, 2006, due to lack of clarity over the delivery and completion of proxies. Platinum has publicly stated that, due to a continued lack of clarity over the delivery and completion of proxies, the meeting has been adjourned again with the consent of Platinum’s shareholders until 5:00 p.m. (United Kingdom time) on December 12, 2006 to clarify the position on voting and the delivery of proxies to enable all shareholders to achieve their intended objectives.

Platinum paid a deposit of $500,000 upon execution of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated October 23, 2006 (the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, Platinum paid an additional deposit of $250,000 on November 30, 2006, such that a total of $750,000 is now being held by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent, under a deposit escrow agreement. Platinum is required to deposit an additional $250,000 with the escrow agent on December 27, 2006 if the Merger has not been completed by that date.
