Yale Uncovers Higher Gold Values at La Verde
Yale Resources Ltd. (TSX-V - YLL and Frankfurt - YAB) is pleased to release results from the La Cobriza and San Jose targets at its wholly owned La Verde Project. The La Cobriza/San Jose area was previously unsampled by Yale and is located approximately 1.5 km southwest of the La Verde Grande mine. Samples collected from the San Jose area are significant as there appears to be a higher gold content in the skarn mineralization. The highest gold grade received to date is 3.66 grams per tonne gold from a sample that returned 4.44 % copper, 250.0 g/t silver, 7.64 % zinc and 3.66 g/t gold over a width of 1.55 m (please see table below for details).

The four targets that occur in the south of the La Verde Project (The La Verdesita target, the San Louis target, the San Jose target and the La Cobriza target) are all on strike with one another and combine to form a structurally controlled zone that measures at least 2 kilometres in length.

San Jose:

The San Jose target is a greater than 40 metre wide fault related zone that has been traced along strike for greater than 200 metres. Within this fault zone are blocks of well mineralized skarn that measure from a metre to approximately 15 metres in size. These blocks are irregularly distributed throughout the zone.

The highest gold grade received to date is 3.66 grams per tonne gold from a sample that returned 4.44 % copper, 250.0 g/t silver, 7.64 % zinc and 3.66 g/t gold over a width of 1.55 m. This sample is from within 'block 1', which contains two small historic workings and measures at least 15 metres across. The weighted average of ten samples within block 1 is 2.14 % copper, 115.7 g/t silver, 2.18 % zinc and 0.53 g/t gold. Approximately 40 metres to the southwest a second large block - block 2 - has been identified that measures approximately ten metres across. The weighted average of five samples from within block 2 is 3.47 % copper, 86.4 g/t silver, 5.2 % zinc and 0.54 g/t gold.

Below are all of samples taken from various blocks along a strike length of approximately 150 metres of the San Jose target:

Ian Foreman, P.Geo, is the Qualified Person, according to National Instrument 43-101, for the La Verde Property and is responsible for the technical data mentioned in this news release.

All of the samples mentioned in this release were prepared and analyzed by ALS Chemex at their labs in Hermosillo and Vancouver and generally consisted of 2-4 kg of material. Gold analyses were performed by 30 gram fire assay with an AA finish. Silver, copper and zinc were analyzed as part of a multi-element ICP package using an aqua regia digestion; samples with more than 100 g/t silver, 1% copper and/or 1% zinc (over limit) were re-analyzed using ALS Chemex's 'ore grade' detection limits.

On behalf of the Board,

"Ian Foreman"
Ian Foreman, P.Geo.
President
