David H. Brett, President and CEO, Pacific Bay Minerals Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:PBM)
(the "Company") reports that partner UrAmerica Ltd has outlined drill targets on
Pacific Bay's uranium Cerro Solo area claims in Chubut Province, Argentina .
UrAmerica is in the first year of an option agreement to earn a 60% interest in
the Property by incurring USD$1,200,000 in exploration expenditures and paying
Pacific Bay USD$140,000 over 4 years.


Nine drill locations have been outlined to target potential paleo-channels
favourable for uranium mineralization similar to the Cerro Solo deposit of the
region. Field observations by UrAmerica indicate that the favourable "Los
Adobes" formation may lie below the rocks of the Chubut Group which outcrop on
the Property. UrAmerica is scheduled to commence a 20,000 meter drill program in
October 2010 on its various claims in the district, including some drilling on
the Pacific Bay/UrAmerica property.

with offices in Buenos Aires, focused on uranium discovery in Argentina.
UrAmerica's seasoned team includes: Omar Adra, CEO of UrAmerica, Neil Herbert,
