JOURNEY RESOURCES CORP. ANNOUNCES COMMENCEMENT OF DRILLING ON THE MUSGROVE CREEK GOLD PROJECT

Vancouver, B.C. - JOURNEY RESOURCES CORP. ("Journey") announces drilling is to commence at the 100% owned Musgrove Creek Gold Project, near Salmon, Idaho.

The results from Journey's two previous drill programs, have indicated a tangible target for ore grade mineralization (named the "Johny Northwest target area"), located midway between those two groups of drill holes. Five to seven reverse circulation holes totalling 850 meters (2,500 feet) are to be drilled from an existing access road to begin testing this target area.

Journey has contracted Diversified Drilling of Missoula, Montana. Diversified Drilling is scheduled to arrive at Musgrove Creek on Monday October 5th, 2009.

Musgrove Creek is an advanced gold exploration project located in Lemhi County, Idaho, approximately 24 km (15 miles) southwest of the recently mined Beartrack gold deposit. The property is accessed from Salmon or Challis, Idaho by about 80 km (50 miles) of paved, gravel and dirt roads.

Musgrove Creek contains a NI 43-101 Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 8 million tonnes at 1.22 g/t Au (0.036 oz/ton) at a gold cut-off of 0.8 g/t (0.023 oz/ton). This is equivalent to 9,761 kg (313,822 oz) of gold at zero dilution (Gruenwald and Makepeace, 2004). Recent exploration activity conducted at Musgrove is focused on adding to that resource with the objective of establishing a minable deposit.

Jack Bal, President and CEO of Journey commented: "We are excited to commence drilling on the Johny Northwest Target, with the focus of adding to the currently defined resource."
