Skyharbour and Cypress Provide Update on their Red Lake / Bruce Channel Drill Program, NW Ontario


August 1, 2008

Vancouver, BC - Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: SYH) and Cypress Development Corp. (TSX-V: CYP) (FWB: C1Z) are pleased to issue an update on their Red Lake / Bruce Channel drill program. The plan for this ongoing drill program is to explore the southern extension of the Bruce Channel deposit, which is being developed by Gold Eagle Mines Ltd. The Bruce Channel zone is inferred to extend on strike onto the Skyharbour (20%) / Cypress (80%) owned Broulan Reef property. The highly technical nature of the required deep drilling in the Bruce Channel, although behind schedule, is proceeding as planned. 

The past year has seen an extensive amount of activity focused on the Bruce Channel. Gold Eagle Mines has continued to drill and expand the discovery zone to the south southwest toward the Broulan Reef property. Goldcorp continues to drill on the north boundary of the Bruce Channel discovery zone near Goldcorp's past-producing Cochenour-Willans mine. Skyharbour and Cypress Development continue to drill on the southern boundary of the Bruce Channel discovery zone.

Yesterday, Mr. Kevin McArthur of Goldcorp reported that Goldcorp Inc. (TSX: G) and Gold Eagle Mines Ltd. (TSX: GEA) have signed an agreement whereby Goldcorp will acquire, through a friendly plan of arrangement, all outstanding shares of Gold Eagle Mines.

"This transaction secures for Goldcorp full control of eight kilometres of strike length in the heart of the world's richest high-grade gold district," said Kevin McArthur, Goldcorp's president and chief executive officer. "Nearly 200 drill holes have defined an impressive gold deposit at Bruce Channel, with potential for additional expansion over time. Development of this strategically important zone can now move forward with our adjoining assets as a single, comprehensive project, sharing mine infrastructure, ore processing facilities and human talent with Red Lake, thus minimizing capital and operating costs and maximizing long-term shareholder value. Red Lake mine has operated for over 50 years, and Goldcorp's continued district consolidation efforts are designed to sustain this world-class operation for decades into the future. We are the natural partner to develop the Bruce Channel project with the geographic footprint preferred by our community."

Skyharbour Resources' and Cypress Development's Broulan Reef property is now the only property along the productive Bruce Channel trend that is not now controlled by Goldcorp.
