JBR James Bay Resources Ltd

James Bay Resources Limited (TSX VENTURE:JBR) ("James Bay" or the "Company") is
pleased to provide an operations update for its 'Ring of Fire' property in the
James Bay Lowlands in Northern Ontario.


James Bay has contracted with MoreCorp Diamond Drilling Services Ltd. to conduct
a 5,000 meter program to test high-priority VTEM geophysical targets on 28
anomalies centered around a sizable EM conductor on the C-Block and C-Block
Extension zones, including a strong 5 km long EM conductor that appears to be on
the flank of a potential layered intrusion or domal feature that is 7 km in
length. Exploration at the James Bay Property is focused on locating magmatic
Ni-Cu-PGE and/or VMS base metal deposits.


The first part of the 5,000 meter drilling program will begin in late September
and focus on several airborne geophysical targets which are easily accessible
before freeze up. The second part of the drilling program will begin after
freeze-up early in the new year, and will focus on some of the more promising
high-priority geophysical anomalies. The total cost of both parts of the
drilling program is expected to be approximately $1.8 million out of the
Company's current cash position of $9.9 million.


In preparation for the Company's drill program, ground geophysics will be
conducted on the C-Block and C-Block Extension. A ground magnetometer survey
will be performed to confirm the accuracy of the airborne survey and ultimately
the best location to drill each target.


James Bay has completed a 100-meter spaced VTEM electromagnetic airborne
geophysical survey on its newly staked F-Block. "We have now flown 100% of the
property," said Brad Leonard, Exploration Manager. "From the preliminary data on
F-Block there appears to be several new exciting targets that need to be further
analyzed and added to the list of compelling anomalies we have identified on our
19,700 hectare property."


In addition, James Bay has initiated the mobilization of a base camp in the
McFauld's Lake district at Lamon Lake. Due to be completed by September 20th,
the Lamon Lake camp will provide a forward base of operations for the Company's
management, drillers and geologists and will provide a staging area for the
delivery of drill core from the McFauld's Lake 'Ring of Fire' property.


"We are very encouraged by our airborne geophysical data and are excited to
launch a 5,000 meter program later this month to begin drill testing several
high-priority targets," said Mr. Stephen Shefsky, President & CEO. "With the
mobilization of our field camp in the McFauld's Lake district currently
underway, follow-up ground geophysics due to begin and drillers contracted for
the end of the month, James Bay's operations are progressing quickly and on
schedule."
