News Release: 08-04

Santoy Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: SAN) is pleased to announce commencement of 4 hole diamond drilling program on its 100% owned Burbidge Lake Uranium Project, located in Wollaston Lake fold belt rocks, approximately 60 km southeast of the Key Lake Mine in northern Saskatchewan. The property covers the historic BURR occurrence, discovered and explored in the early 1950's. The showing is hosted by a sheared and faulted calc-silicate horizon in meta-arkosic rocks of the Wollaston Domain. This is a similar geologic setting to mineralization being explored in the belt by JNR Resources and others. The historic Rabbit Lake mine was hosted in similar Aphebian-age rocks.

The objective of the drill program will be to confirm historical reported uranium intersections and to potentially extend the strike and depth extent of the mineralization. It will also be important to determine the age of the uranium mineralization to ascertain whether it might represent an Aphebian-age occurrence (such as Rabbit Lake) or whether the mineralization is younger (with affinities to unconformity-type hosted deposits).

The qualified person, as defined by National Instrument 43-101, responsible for review of technical information in this news release is J. R. Allan, P. Geol.
