September 5, 2008

Vancouver, BC -- Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: SYH) (the "Company") announces that JVX Geophysics Ltd. has now mobilized a 3 man crew onto its 100% owned South Bay zinc--copper project located in Dent and Mitchell Townships, approximately 80 km east north-east of Red Lake, Ontario. The 3200 acre property includes the former South Bay zinc--copper mine (Selco) which produced 1.6 million tons of high grade ore.

JVX Geophysics will conduct down-hole IP (induced polarization) probing on the reported holes drilled by Skyharbour through the winter and spring of 2008. The geophysical down-hole program will enable Skyharbour to discern and examine any massive sulphide zones that exist within a radius of approximately 100 metres of each of the 12 holes that were drilled on the mainland in the proximity of the past producing Selco South Bay Mine. The down-hole electrical survey will identify conductive features (sulfides) off the axis of the drill holes and give direction and distance to the strongest portions of the sulfide bodies. 

The infield program will take approximately 3 weeks to complete with a comprehensive geophysical report to follow the field work. The down-hole geophysical responses will be integrated with geological and rock geochemical data and used to target drill holes in a Phase 2 program.

Upon the completion of the report, Skyharbour will prepare for a Phase 2 winter 2008/2009 drill program on its South Bay group of claims.

Skyharbour Resources has now established 3 new enriched zinc zones within 500 metres of the shaft of the former producing South Bay zinc -- copper mine. There has been no past exploration in this area at the depths that Skyharbour has drilled.

Skyharbour Resources has approximately $2.2 million in working capital and no debt.
