Dear Mr. Bawolak:

RE:   SEQUANEY URANIUM PROPERTY

Further to our earlier discussions, we have set forth below the key terms of the
option (the "OPTION") that you (the "OPTIONOR") have agreed to grant to
Northwestern Mineral Ventures Inc. ("NWT") concerning the property known as the
Sequaney Uranium Property, which property is more particularly described in
Schedule A hereto (the "PROPERTY").

1.    PROPERTY AND TITLE

The Optionor hereby represents and warrants that:

      (a)   he is the registered and beneficial owner of a 100% interest in the
            Property, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances;

      (b)   he has received all required approvals to grant the Option in the
            Property to NWT; and

      (c)   the description of the Property set forth herein is true and
            correct.

2.    DUE DILIGENCE

The Optionor hereby grants to NWT the sole and exclusive right to conduct a
complete due diligence review regarding the Property, which will include but not
be limited to, an investigation of any environmental liabilities with respect to
the Property and a site visit, at NWT's sole discretion, to the Property by a
qualified geologist appointed by NWT. In consideration of such right to conduct
a due diligence review, NWT shall make cash payments to the Optionor, as
follows:

            On or prior to June 10,2006                              Cdn $15,000

            On or prior to July 10,2006                              Cdn $15,000

            On or prior to August 15, 2006                           Cdn $15,000

In order to assist NWT in completing its due diligence of the Property, the
Optionor will forthwith provide to NWT the most recent geological report in
respect of the Property for review, together with all other data, maps, reports,
surveys, documentation and other information concerning the Property available
to the Optionor (the "DILIGENCE MATERIAL").

If at any time, NWT fails to make any of the above-noted payments by the
designated payment date, the right of NWT to conduct its due diligence review of
the Property shall thereupon terminate, NWT shall return all Diligence Material
to the Optionor, and neither party shall have any further obligations under this
letter of intent.

3.    OPTION TERMS

Subject to Section 5 below, in the event that NWT is satisfied with its due
diligence review of the Property, in its sole discretion, and all payments have
been duly and timely made by NWT in accordance with Section 2 hereof, the

beneficial interest in the Property (the "ACQUISTION"), which interest shall
vest on the date upon which each of following events has been completed:

      (a)   cash payments to the Optionor, as follows:

            Option Agreement (as hereinafter defined) is
            fully executed (such later date, the
            "APPROVAL Date")

            and

      (b)   the issuance of common shares of NWT ("COMMON SHARES") to the
            Optionor, as follows:
