Blue River Resources Ltd. Commences Diamond Drilling on Castle Copper Project

Blue River Resources Ltd. ("Blue River" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BXR)
announces it has commenced drilling on its 100%-owned Castle Copper Project,
located 12 km northeast of Princeton BC.


The Castle Project totals over 18,000 acres in size, covering an estimated 8 km
strike length of the north/south trending Nicola Fault. The Nicola Fault has
been interpreted to regionally control copper mineralization found at the Copper
Mountain Mine and in the Princeton area.


A drilling program in 2011 identified strong epidote-chlorite and
quartz-sericite alteration, which is consistent with a copper porphyry
mineralized system, similar to Copper Mountain Mining's operating Copper
Mountain mine, located 25 kilometers south of the Castle Property. The last hole
drilled, BXR-11-9, intersected 200 metres (approx. 600 feet) of copper
porphyry-style alteration and mineralization, indicating the potential for a
large, near surface, porphyry system.


Earlier this year, Blue River uncovered historic drilling information from a
1972 drilling program on the Property. This information indicates that copper
mineralization may extend to the north and west of the 2011 drilling campaign on
the Castle Project. This area, called the Christian Zone, will be the focus of
the upcoming diamond drill program.


Highland North Copper Project

Blue River has filed for a B.C. Mines Act exploration permit application and
expects to commence diamond drilling on the Highland North Project once the
permit is approved (expected by October 2012).


The Company announces that it has arranged, subject to TSX Venture Exchange
approval, a private placement totalling $700,000, consisting of flow through
shares at $0.15 per share and non-flow through units at $0.10 per unit. Each
unit will consist of one common share and one-half share purchase warrant. One
full warrant is exercisable into one share at $0.20 per share, for a period of
five years.


The technical information contained in this news release was reviewed and
approved by Paul D. Gray, P. Geo, Company Director, and a qualified person as
defined under National Instrument 43-101.
