A study using tunneling spectroscopy of the density of states in the vicinity of Fermi level has been performed on ${\mathrm{NbSe}}_{3}$ at low temperature. The tunneling conductance data reveal an asymmetry with respect to the Fermi level and below 4.2 K two minima. These results definitely establish the semimetallic character of ${\mathrm{NbSe}}_{3}$ at low temperature. Tunneling spectra have been analyzed assuming an anisotropic gap structure, and the transverse coupling energy derived is in good agreement with band calculations.
