U Mining Resources Inc. Announces Strategic Acquisition of Uranium Rich "Mount Otish" Territories
Monday June 4, 8:30 am ET


Updates Status of Geologic Reports and Corporate Development Strategy

NEW YORK, June 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - U Mining Resources Inc. (Pink Sheets: UMNG - News), today announced that it has completed the key acquisition of the "Mount Otish" Territories. Management has been working on the purchase of this incredibly promising and strategic area for over 6 months.

The Otish Mountains basin, Québec's Athabasca?

The uranium potential of the Otish Mountains Paleoproterozoic sedimentary basin is often compared to the Athabasca Mesoproterozoic sedimentary basin in Saskatchewan (the Athabasca basin accounts for one-third of world supply). There are several uranium showings typical of unconformity-related uranium deposits (e.g. Camie River and Beaver Lake) in the Otish Mountains basin. The Otish Supergroup is characterized by fluvial deposits at the base (Indicator Group) and marginal basin deposits near the top (Genest, 1989). The Indicator Group is composed of sub-arkosic to arkosic sandstones. These rocks are cut by dikes and sills of Paleoproterozoic gabbro.

In 2006, several companies were active in the Otish Mountains area, including Cameco (the world's largest low-cost uranium producer, with a 20% market share) and junior Strateco Resources Inc. The promising results obtained by Strateco Resources on the Matoush property highlight the potential of vein-type mineralization associated with a shear zone in sedimentary rocks.

Management has requested, for this week's delivery, a geologic summary of "Mount Otish's" potential from an external geologist firm; fulfilling the last due diligence requirement of the transaction. The Company will disclose the acquisition's terms and conditions subsequent to the receipt of the geologic summary. In the meantime, U Mining has posted on its corporate website (www.umining.com) the Government of Quebec's Natural Resources Uranium map so that shareholders may appreciate the value of the Company's Uranium Rich Territories.

Management also announced that all the results of the NI-43-101 reports will be published during the month of June. The Company will disclose the name of the external geologist firm as soon as the reports are completed in order to avoid any interference and obstruction from external third parties as encountered previously. The Company has amassed a significant high-grade potential asset base, and is planning to unveil its Corporate Development Strategy during the month of June. The landmark acquisition of this Uranium territory, which was kept confidential until today, is the last piece of the Company's territory positioning strategy.
