2008 Drill Results Have Extended the High Grade Silver - Massive Sulphide Horizon on the BA claims over at least 800 meters in S

STEWART, BC, Sept. 29  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Mountain Boy Minerals Ltd announces that assays for the first 6 holes for the 2008 exploration program on the 100 % owned BA claims have been received. Assays for DDH 2008-BA-27 to 31 and 2008-BA-42 have been received. The BA claims are located 30 km east of Stewart in the Skeena mining division approximately 3 kilometers south of paved Highway 37A.

To date a total of 48 holes have been drilled on the main exposed high grade silver - massive sulphide horizon Zinc-silver and lead values within the high grade silver - massive sulphide horizon on the BA claims were intersected over at least 500 meters in strike length in a volcanic rock unit traced for over 5 kilometers along the west side of the property. Wherever the zone is exposed along the 5 kilometers of strike length, sampling has yielded zinc-silver-lead values. In the immediate area of drilling, the mineralized zone is still open along strike and down dip.

  Highlights of drilling includes 13.11 meters of 136.5 g/t silver, 1.37%
  lead and 4.11 % zinc as well as 19.82 meters of 146.81 g/t silver, 1.16 %
  lead and 2.56 % zinc in DDH-2008-BA-28 and 65.5 meters of 112.57 g/t
  silver, 0.92 % lead and 1.51 % zinc in DDH-2008-BA-42.



The company believes that the mineralized zone represents the upper portion of a Kuroko-type volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) system composed of an exhalite horizon with related zinc-lead-silver mineralization. This mineralization consisting of finely bedded sphalerite and pyrite with minor galena and chalcopyrite occurs below the main exhalite (red jasper/green to grey chert) horizon and is located within mudstones, mudstone breccias and dacite breccias.

Assays received for drill hole DDH 2008-BA-27 to 31 and 2008-BA-42 with results greater than 1 % zinc or appreciable silver are listed in the table below:
