Pacific Bay Exploration Program Underway at July Uranium Project

David H. Brett, President and CEO, Pacific Bay Minerals Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:PBM)
(the "Company") reports that the Company has commenced an exploration program at
the July uranium project in Chubut Province, Argentina. The program will consist
of prospecting, mapping, sampling, soil geochemistry and trenching of known
mineralized zones. The Company is earning a 90% interest in the property from
state owned Petrominera Chubut, S.E. 


"The Cerro Solo region of Chubut has emerged as the top uranium district in
Argentina," said Pacific Bay CEO David Brett. "Discovery potential is high in
this very under explored region." 


The July property is a mineral claim located inside the Company's larger, 400sq
KM Regalo property and about 35 KM north East of the state owned Cerro Solo
uranium deposit. Situated within the favorable Los Adobes formation, the July
hosts two previously discovered uraniferous paleo-channels that have been traced
in outcrop for approximately 250 meters on surface, measuring 1 to 5 meters in
width. Along strike of these zones, the Company has recorded high scintillometer
readings for 1,500 meters. The shallow dipping structures are near surface and
have significant potential. A brief reconnaissance of the July Project by
Pacific Bay in March of 2011 returned grab samples up to 0.108% and
scintillometer readings up to 9,000 counts per second. 


Dr. Bernard Free, Ph.D., who examined the July property in 2011, stated: "The
mineralization style at July has also been confirmed on Pacific Bay's adjoining
Regalo claims, where a helicopter supported prospecting operation last year
produced highly significant results. A zone measuring approximately 1.5km by
1.0km produced significant grade uranium mineralisation from a number of
randomly selected surface exposures. Pac Bay considers this a maiden discovery
confirming the uranium potential of the widespread host stratigraphy on the
entire Regalo property."

Richard Culbert, Ph.D., P.Geo., a Qualified Person, as defined by National
Instrument 43-101. Samples collected and referenced in this news release were
submitted to and analysed by Alex Stewart Group located in Mendoza, Argentina.
