Blue Sky Uranium and Partner AREVA Commence 2012 Exploration Program

Blue Sky Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: BSK, FSE: MAL (WKN A0MKXP), "Blue Sky" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that Blue Sky and AREVA Mines ("AREVA") have commenced exploration on the Company's uranium properties in Argentina. The exploration programs are 100% funded by AREVA and will take place on Blue Sky's properties in the Provinces of Rio Negro and Chubut.

All of the exploration programs have been planned and approved by an AREVA-Blue Sky Joint Technical Committee that was formed after the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with AREVA earlier this year, to jointly explore Argentina for uranium deposits. Exploration is starting at the Ivana property and then the field crews will move to the Sierra Colonia property and then to the newly acquired Tierras Coloradas ("TC") property where uranium mineralization was discovered in 2011. All work will be performed by a joint AREVA-Blue Sky team with Blue Sky acting as the operator. The permits to carry out the exploration programs have been obtained or are in the process of being obtained from the regulatory authorities.

Rio Negro Province

Ivana Property (713 km²) - Field crews will start this week digging up to 500 auger holes as well as hand-excavated pits combined with surface radiometric surveys. The objective of the exploration program is to expand on a 2 km by 4 km area of known surficial mineralization that was discovered in 2011 and detect new buried mineralization. Highlights of the newly discovered target areas include an interval of 1.81% U3O8 over 0.75 m beginning at 0.25 m from surface in a hand excavated pit. Mineralization is open at depth (see October 26, 2011 news release). Assay results will be released as they become available.

Chubut Province

Sierra Colonia Property (399 km²) - This program will be focused on identifying drill targets for a 2012 drill program in 12 target areas contained within a 14 km long mineralized trend. These target areas were discovered by Blue Sky in 2011(see press release of October 18, 2011). The property is situated 96 km from the Argentina's National Commission of Atomic Energy ("CNEA") Cerro Solo deposit where CNEA reported in 2009 an estimate of 5,950 Tonnes of recoverable U (15 million pounds of U3081), and also in 2005 an estimate of 4,600 Tonnes of recoverable U (12 million pounds of U3081) with grades ranging from 0.3% to 0.5% U (0.4% to 0.6% U308). Blue Sky's Sierra Colonia project is located in a similar geological environment as the Cerro Solo deposit. Highlights from the sampling at the Company's Sierra Colonia project include 0.53% U3O8 over a width of 0.5 m in chip samples taken at the Ca�adon Lillo Zone.

TC Property (1,355 km² including licences granted and under application) - Surficial mineralization was discovered by Blue Sky in 2011 while prospecting and carrying out surface radiometric surveys in the area of the property on this property located east of the Sierra Colonia property and in a similar geological environment to Sierra Colonia. The objective will be to identify drill targets on surficial and near-surface sandstone-type mineralization. Ground radiometric surveys and surface rock sampling, hand pit excavations and trenching are also planned.
