Skyharbour Resources Ltd. TSX VENTURE: SYH

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 27, 2008) - Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:SYH) (the "Company") announces assay results from its 100% owned south Bay Zinc-copper-silver project, located in Dent and Mitchell township, 80 km east north east of Red Lake ,Ontario. The 3200 Acre property includes the former South Bay Zinc - copper mine (Selco) which produced 1.6 million tons of ore grading 2.3% Cu, 14.5 % Zn and 3.5 oz Ag.

Skyharbour has encountered Volcanogenic Massive Sulphides (VMS) mineralization over significant intersections in its drill program. Assays have been received for a second zone of VMS mineralization identified in drill hole SB08-4 and for an intersection of VMS mineralization in hole SB08-5, which are reported below.

Zinc mineralization encountered in drilling 500 metres southwest of the past producing South Bay mine shaft occurs in two zones. It is still being determined if the zinc mineralization being reported by Skyharbour are separate stratigraphic intervals or a repeated interval due to tight folding. Both zones are fine grained and include chert beds giving rise to the term 'exhalite'.

The mineralized zones occur within a thick siliceous flow and pyroclastic sequence. Within this sequence and related to zinc mineralization is a dacitic breccia unit that is developed intermittently. The unit is characterized by pale green chlorite between the breccia fragments. It is apparent from a detailed compilation of data of the underground workings of the former South Bay mine by Skyharbour geologists, that a similar geological unit seen in the Skyharbour's surface drilling underlies the bulk of the ore that was mined. In the mine area, this unit is also intermittently developed but occurs in a southwest arcuate trend that suggests the mineralization encountered by Skyharbour's drilling is within the same stratigraphic horizon and stratigraphic package of rocks as the past producer.

Drilling is currently testing a large Titan 24 chargeability / resistivity anomaly that trends from the mine workings to the recent Skyharbour zinc discovery. The compilation shows this anomaly is related to the mineralization mined at South Bay but is outside the area explored from underground. The geophysical data indicates the target 'tops out' 200 metres below surface but is open at depth.

Skyharbour has now completed 10 diamond drill holes on its South Bay property. The Company continues to drill the property at this time. A further 4 drill holes have been located in the field and are to be completed in this ongoing Phase #1 drill program.

Assays are pending from core samples split from hole #6 through hole #10, with Skyharbour currently awaiting processing by TSL Laboratory in Saskatoon.

The general area of the discovery has all the characteristics of a base metal camp. Typically a camp hosts a number of zinc-copper deposits with one or two larger deposits of 15 to 50 million tonnes and a range of much smaller deposits down to 1/2 a million tonnes. The only significant deposit found to date is the South Bay mine deposit and it is at the smaller end of the scale. This might suggest that larger deposits remain to be discovered.

Skyharbour Resources has approximately $3.0 million in working capital and no debt.
