Blue Sky Announces High-Grade Near Surface Uranium Discovery at IVANA



Blue Sky Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: BSK, FRA: MAL, WKN: A0MKXP, "Blue Sky" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the discovery of high grade mineralization on its Ivana property located in the Rio Negro province, Argentina.The Company's President and Chief Operating Officer Normand Champigny stated: "This is an exciting new discovery at IVANA and to date these are the highest uranium grades we have encountered in Argentina."

The newly discovered mineralized area is located 20 km south from the 20-km long mineralized trenddiscovered earlier this year (press releases of February 22 and August 9, 2011).The highlight from the new discovery is an interval of 1.81% U3O8over 0.75 m including 6.67%U3O8over 0.15 m. The highlights in the table below are from 5 handpitsexcavated up to 1.2 m deep along a 3.3 km long northwest-southeast mineralized trend. Mineralization is open at depth.

The mineralization style and geological setting at Blue Sky's new discovery at IVANA are similar to the Langer Heinrich mine in Namibia (Measured and Indicated Resource of 150 million lbs. U3O8 at a grade of 0.054% U3O8 using a 0.025% U3O8 cut-off, Paladin Energy Ltd. 2011 annual report). At Langer Heinrich, mineralization occurs within a 15-km long paleo-drainage system and is near-surface, between one meter and 30 m thick, between 50 m and 1,100 m wide, that is hosted in sediments with a calcrete cover and overlyingArchean granites.

Carnotite, a potassium uranium vanadate, is the uranium ore mineral. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) can be produced from carnotite and is mainly used as an alloy of steel.

In addition,a total of 27 auger holes, 3 m deep on average, were completed between the hand excavated pits.Downholegamma probe readings (usingdownhole probe Mount Sopris model 2 PGA-1000)confirmed the presence of strong,near surface radioactive zones. Values ranging from1,271 to 111,000 countsper second (next to I CAL 11-33) were measured in 15 holes.

High grade uranium mineralization is foundin the form of carnotite hosted in unconsolidated and well sorted reddish and yellowish sands covered by calcrete. Lower grade mineralization is hosted in green clays with carnotite occurring along parting planes. Less than 500 m from the mineralized pits, outcrops are observed from Upper Proterozoic shales and schists of the NahuelNiyeu Formation and Carboniferous to Permian granites of the Navarrete Plutonic Complex.The mineralized sands appear to be part of fluvial paleochannels eroded in the basement metamorphic and granitic rocks.

This press release was reviewed by Normand Champigny, Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101. Field work was carried out by Blue Sky's exploration tem under the supervision of Bruce A. Smith, Country Manager for MineraCielo Azul S.A., a 100% owned subsidiary of Blue Sky, and Qualified Person.
