Chapleau Discovers Additional Gold Zones at Coringa in Brazil and an 860 Line-km Electromagnetic Survey Will Commence in August

Chapleau Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CHI) has completed the regional pan
concentrate sampling of streams to the west and southwest of the principal 10 km
of gold mineralized structures at the Coringa gold project in Brazil.
Geochemical results received from the pan concentrate sampling have confirmed
anomalous gold values ranging from 3 to 150 g/t gold which define at least 3
additional potential sources of gold over an area of 20 sq km (see maps on
website: www.chapleauresources.com/projectmaps.php?ID=11). Further follow-up
exploration to more accurately define the sources of gold mineralization is
currently underway.


A time domain electromagnetic (EM) geophysical survey of 860 line-km will also
be flown in August, 2008 to cover all identified pan concentrate and gold in
soil anomalies both at Coringa and Mato Velho. The EM survey will be done to
enhance and delineate future drill targets on the 31,995 ha of claims (see maps
on website: www.chapleauresources.com/projectmaps.php?ID=11).


Regional pan concentrate sampling of streams, limited follow-up soil sampling
and the 3,139.68 line-km airborne magnetic, gradiometric and radiometric
geophysical survey flown over the area in 2007, have been very successful in
expanding the gold potential of the Coringa-Mato Velho gold camp. Beyond the
original 10 km of gold mineralized structures and 4.5 km of artisanal gold
workings at Coringa and Mato Velho an additional 13 km of unexplored gold
targets at Coringa and at least 2 km of additional gold mineralization at Mato
Velho have been identified.


Ian Gendall (President) commented: "We are extremely encouraged with the results
from the regional reconnaissance program and are looking forward to the results
of the helicopter borne electromagnetic survey to extend our drill targets
beyond the initial drill tested areas. The discovery of additional gold-bearing
parallel structures demonstrates the potential for multiple mineralized zones at
Coringa. A 7,000 m drill program will commence in August and two drill rigs will
be on site until 2009".


Pan concentrate samples were sent via a secure transport agency to the SGS
Geosol laboratory in Itaituba in Brazil for preparation and the pulps sent
directly to the SGS Geosol laboratory in Belo Horizonte and Vespasiano for
analysis. Gold analysis was by fire assay of a 30 g sample and an atomic
absorption finish. Silver and additional 32 elements using aqua regia acid
digestion were analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP). As part of the
Company's QA/QC program duplicates, blanks and internationally recognized
standards were included in the sample batches to check on assay precision and
accuracy. SGS Geosol, which is an ISO, 9001:2000 and ISO 14001: 2004 registered
laboratory also has a quality control program in place, which includes standards
and duplicates.
