The Triangle figure developed for the Nord's logo is based upon one of the four symbols used during the Middle Ages to depict the basic elements of life, namely; fire, air, water and earth. A plain inverted triangle was the symbol for water. The inverted triangle with the addition of a horizontal cross bar and an external hook attached to the right end of the cross bar became the symbol for earth. For the Nord logo a stylized version of the earth symbol was used and the word "Nord" incorporated into the design. All of this taken together is intended to symbolize the dedication of Nord Resources Corporation to pursue the exploration and development of the earth's natural resources in a manner consistent with the environment and material needs of mankind.
