Majescor Outlines High-Priority Uranium Targets at Baker Lake, Nunavut - Ground Follow-up Program to Start in September

Montreal, QC, August 5, 2008. Majescor Resources Inc. ("Majescor") (MAJ: TSX-V) is pleased to report the results from the reprocessing of proprietary geophysical data from a 6,302 line-km airborne magnetic, electromagnetic and gamma-ray spectrometric survey flown in 2006 across portions of the Company's 100%-owned Baker Lake uranium property. The Baker Lake property is located in the East Thelon basin area of Nunavut. Majescor acquired 100% of the mineral rights on the property from De Beers Canada Inc. in June 2008 (see Majescor press release dated June 19, 2008).

A total of 2,394 discrete radiometric anomalies1 ranging up to 11.95 ppm U and forming 74 clusters of anomalies were defined over four survey blocks. "High-Priority"2 uranium radiometric anomalies have been outlined in all four blocks. The strongest of these are recorded in the South block, host to nine out of ten of the property's historical uranium in bedrock showings, including the JB/79 Showing (6.71 m of 0.13% U3O8 ). Of particular interest, only two of the known uranium showings have a corresponding airborne radiometric anomaly, suggesting potential for a number of additional uranium discoveries. Based on government surficial sediment distribution maps, a large proportion of the high-priority anomalies are interpreted to lie on bedrock-dominated terrain.

Highlights

  • South Block: 33 clusters of uranium anomalies identified, nine of which contain "high-priority" 2 uranium targets for follow-up investigation.
  • North Block: 15 clusters of uranium anomalies identified, four of which contain "high-priority" uranium targets for follow-up investigation.
  • East Block: 11 clusters of uranium anomalies identified, nine of which contain "high-priority" uranium targets for follow-up investigation.
  • West Block: 15 clusters of uranium anomalies identified, five of which contain "high-priority" uranium targets for follow-up investigation.
     
    1 An anomaly is defined as a radiometric value equal or greater than the mean of individual survey uranium radiometric readings + 2 standard deviations
    2 A "high-priority" anomaly (or target) is defined as a radiometric value equal or greater than the mean of individual survey block radiometric readings + 3 standard deviations

The Baker Lake property lies 30 km to the South of the Kiggavik group of uranium deposits held predominantly by Areva Resources Canada Inc. The property's geological setting is considered favourable to host Kiggavik-style uranium deposits associated with fault zones in off-basin basement rocks. In 2007, a structural study of the Baker Lake property and surrounding area using high resolution satellite imagery identified four priority areas within the property for uranium exploration.

Majescor is committed to moving the Baker Lake uranium project forward. To this effect, the Company has undertaken a comprehensive review and analysis of previous exploration results on the property in view of prioritizing targets for ground follow-up. A focused ground exploration program on the property is scheduled to start in September. This program will aim to investigate a number of the "high priority" remotely sensed uranium targets (geophysical targets defined by consultant MB Geosolutions of Quebec-City; satellite imagery structural targets outlined by consultant Terrageos of Montreal) and of the numerous mineralized bedrock, boulder and soil geochemistry targets listed in a NI 43-101 compliant report completed on the uranium property in 2007.

In other news, the Company has applied to the TSX Venture Exchange in order to issue common shares to SIDEX corresponding to the interest payment relating to the $150,000 unsecured convertible debenture private placement announced on January 22, 2007.. The term of the unsecured convertible debenture is 36 months with a nominal interest rate of 12%, payable twice a year in cash or in shares.

Investors are also invited to visit the new Majescor Resources website at the following address: www.majescor.com. It is a valuable source of relevant information concerning the Company and its projects.

Majescor is a dedicated uranium explorer focusing on emerging uranium districts. In addition to the Baker Lake property, Majescor's project portfolio includes four uranium exploration projects in Quebec: South Rae and West Minto (under option from Azimut Exploration Inc.); Mistassini (100%-owned; under option to Strateco Resources Inc); and Lac Laparre (100%-owned; under option to Santoy Resources Inc. and Otish Energy Inc.). All four Quebec projects will undergo systematic ground exploration in 2008 with the aim of testing high-priority geophysical, geochemical and/or prospecting targets outlined in 2007.

This press release was approved by Jacques Letendre, P.Geo, Director of Majescor, acting as the "Qualified Person" for the Company under National Instrument 43-101.

Majescor d�finit des cibles prioritaires pour l'uranium sur la propri�t� Baker Lake au Nunavut :
Un programme de suivi sur le terrain d�butera en septembre

Montr�al, QC, le 5 ao�t 2008. Ressources Majescor inc. (� Majescor �) (MAJ : TSX-V) a le plaisir d'annoncer les r�sultats du retraitement des donn�es g�ophysiques exclusives issues d'un lev� a�roport� (magn�tisme-�lectromagn�tisme-spectrom�trie � rayons gamma) de 6 302 km lin�aires r�alis� en 2006 et couvrant certains secteurs de la propri�t� Baker Lake-Uranium. La propri�t� Baker Lake est situ�e dans la partie est du bassin de Thelon, au Nunavut. Majescor a acquis 100% des droits miniers sur la propri�t� de De Beers Canada inc. au mois de juin 2008 (voir le communiqu� de Majescor du 19 juin, 2008).

En tout, 2 394 anomalies radiom�triques1 ponctuelles avec des valeurs atteignant 11,95 ppm U et formant 74 groupements d'anomalies ont �t� recens�es sur l'ensemble des quatre blocs survol�s lors du lev�. Des anomalies radiom�triques � prioritaires �2 en uranium ont �t� d�finies dans chacun des quatre blocs. La plus forte anomalie a �t� enregistr�e dans le bloc Sud, lequel renferme neuf des dix indices d'uranium connus en affleurement sur la propri�t�, dont l'indice JB/79 (6,71 m0,13 % U3O8 ). Par ailleurs, seuls deux des indices d'uranium connus correspondent � une anomalie radiom�trique a�roport�e, ce qui sugg�re un bon potentiel pour la d�couverte de nouveaux indices. D'apr�s les cartes de g�ologie glaciaire du gouvernement, une grande proportion des anomalies prioritaires serait situ�e dans des secteurs o� les affleurements rocheux sont pr�pond�rants.

Faits saillants

  • Bloc Sud : 33 groupements d'anomalies en uranium recens�s, dont neuf renferment des cibles � prioritaires � m�ritant un suivi sur le terrain.
  • Bloc Nord : 15 groupements d'anomalies en uranium recens�s, dont quatre renferment des cibles � prioritaires � m�ritant un suivi sur le terrain.
  • Bloc Est : 11 groupements d'anomalies en uranium recens�s, dont neuf renferment des cibles � prioritaires � m�ritant un suivi sur le terrain.
  • Bloc Ouest : 15 groupements d'anomalies en uranium recens�s, dont cinq renferment des cibles � prioritaires � m�ritant un suivi sur le terrain.
     
    1 Une anomalie est d�finie comme une valeur radiom�trique �quivalente ou sup�rieure � la moyenne des mesures radiom�triques individuelles en uranium d'un bloc du lev� + 2 �carts-type.
    2 Une anomalie (ou cible) � prioritaire � est d�finie comme une valeur radiom�trique �quivalente ou sup�rieure � la moyenne des mesures radiom�triques individuelles d'un bloc du lev� + 3 �carts-type.

La propri�t� Baker Lake se trouve � 30 km au sud du groupe de g�tes d'uranium de Kiggavik, d�tenus en majorit� par Areva Resources Canada inc. Le contexte g�ologique de la propri�t� est consid�r� favorable pour les min�ralisations uranif�res de type Kiggavik, associ�es � des zones de failles dans le socle rocheux en marge d'un bassin. En 2007, une �tude structurale par imagerie satellitaire � haute r�solution de la propri�t� Baker Lake et des environs avait permis d'identifier quatre secteurs prioritaires pour la recherche d'uranium sur la propri�t�.

Majescor est d�termin�e � faire progresser le projet Baker Lake-Uranium. � cet effet, la Soci�t� a entrepris une r�vision et une analyse d�taill�e des r�sultats des travaux ant�rieurs sur la propri�t� dans le but d'�tablir la liste des cibles prioritaires pour un suivi sur le terrain. Un programme d'exploration cibl�e est pr�vu pour le mois de septembre. Ce programme aura pour but d'investiguer plusieurs des cibles � prioritaires � pour l'uranium identifi�es par t�l�d�tection (cibles g�ophysiques recens�es par la firme-conseil MB G�osolutions de Qu�bec; cibles structurales sur imagerie satellitaire identifi�es par la firme-conseil Terrageos de Montr�al), ainsi qu'une s�rie d'autres cibles (affleurements et blocs min�ralis�s; anomalies g�ochimiques dans les sols) d�crites dans un rapport conforme � la norme NI 43-101 pr�par� sur la propri�t� pour l'uranium en 2007.

Par ailleurs, la Soci�t� a d�pos� aupr�s de la Bourse de croissance TSX une demande d'autorisation d'�mission d'actions ordinaires � SIDEX, correspondant � un paiement d'int�r�ts en lien au financement priv� de 150 000 $ (d�benture convertible non garantie) annonc� le 22 janvier, 2007. La d�benture convertible non garantie couvre une p�riode de 36 mois et porte un taux d'int�r�t nominal de 12 %, payable deux fois l'an en esp�ces ou en actions.

Les investisseurs sont �galement invit�s � consulter le nouveau site web de Ressources Majescor � l'adresse suivante : www.majescor.com. Il s'agit d'une source pr�cieuse d'information sur la Soci�t� et ses projets.

Majescor est une soci�t� d'exploration pour l'uranium ouvrant dans des districts uranif�res en �mergence. En plus de la propri�t� Baker Lake, le portefeuille de propri�t�s de Majescor comprend quatre projets d'exploration pour l'uranium au Qu�bec, soit les propri�t�s Rae Sud et Minto Ouest (sous option d'Exploration Azimut inc.), Mistassini (d�tenue � 100 %; option accord�e � Ressources Strateco inc.), et Lac Laparre (d�tenue � 100 %; option accord�e � Santoy Resources inc. et Otish Energy inc.). Les quatre projets qu�b�cois feront l'objet de travaux d'exploration syst�matique sur le terrain en 2008, dans le but de v�rifier des cibles prioritaires recens�es en 2007 par des m�thodes g�ophysiques, g�ochimiques et/ou par prospection.

Ce communiqu� a �t� pr�par� par Jacques Letendre, G�o., Administrateur de Majescor, agissant � titre de personne qualifi�e selon la Norme Canadienne NI 43-101.
