Yale Stakes New Mexican Property

Market Wire, October, 2008

Yale Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: YLL) (FRANKFURT: YAB) is pleased to announce that it has received formal title for the Dos Naciones property located in the state of Sonora, Mexico. The Dos Naciones property contains two known areas of historic mining that primarily targeted copper-silver-zinc-gold skarns. The potential for a porphyry-style target within the property is high as these skarn bodies occur on the edge of a regional magnetic anomaly that measures 2 km in diameter that hosts an intrusive body with multiple strongly altered exposures that contain pyrite, local galena and in one area small mines that exploited high grade silver-lead veins.

The Dos Naciones property is 2,391 hectares (or 23.91 square km) in size and was staked by Yale's wholly owned subsidiary Minera Alta Vista and is located approximately 160 km northeast of Hermosillo in the heart of Sonora's porphyry district.

Sampling by Yale has highlighted the high potential of these skarns as 20 of 24 samples (83 %) taken to date have returned grades greater than 0.5 % copper and 9 samples (38 %) returned grades greater than 1.0 % copper. A phase two exploration program will start this week.

The Dos Naciones area is located in the southwestern portion of the property; the area contains two known skarn bodies that are separated by approximately 750 metres of intrusive rocks which host several high-grade silver-lead veins.

The eastern skarn forms a hill measuring 200 by 150 metres and is 50 metres high. This hill has several workings around its edges as well as several small open cuts throughout. The western skarn has been traced on surface for 70 metres and averages 12 metres in width. This zone appears to be in contact with the intrusive and thus the depth potential could be significant. The list below shows results from the targets to date:

The La Espanola area is located on the eastern side of the property and is approximately 3.5 km from the Dos Naciones area and, to date, two skarn bodies are known. The southern of the two forms a prominent hill that measures approximately 280 m by 120 m and has a height of at least 70 metres. The northern skarn measures approximately 100 by 50 metres and has been traced over a vertical extent of 30 metres. The relationship between the two skarn bodies and whether they are connected has yet been determined.

All of the samples mentioned in this release were prepared and analyzed by ALS Chemex at their labs in Hermosillo and Vancouver and generally consisted of 2-4 kg of material. Gold analyses were performed by 30 gram fire assay with an AA finish. Silver, copper and zinc were analyzed as part of a multi-element ICP package using an aqua regia digestion; samples with more than 100 g/t silver, 1% copper and/or 1% lead (over limit) were re-analyzed using ALS Chemex's 'ore grade' detection limits.

On behalf of the Board,
