Montréal, October 29, 2013 - Yorbeau Resources Inc.(TSX: YRB.A) (the “Company” or “Yorbeau”) is pleased to provide an update on the exploration program currently being undertaken by Gold Fields Sudbury Exploration Corp. on the Company’s Rouyn property. The program consists of a two phase diamond drill program, a detailed geophysical magnetic survey and a trenching program.

On July 15, a drill rig was mobilized to begin Phase 1 of the drilling program. The program will drill approximately 11,000m and target the main mineralized trend. The primary goal of the program is to define the orientation of Au mineralization to better understand the geometry of the deposits. Targets within the corridor are located in the Augmitto, Cinderella, Lac Gamble and Astoria zones. Drilling at the historic Astoria deposit will be the first in approximately 20 years.

To date the program has completed 20 drill holes for a total of 5,777 meters. Drilling has encountered strongly altered zones and frequently visible gold. Assay results will be published once Gold Fields Sudbury has completed QAQC on the analyses. The drill rig is now located on the Lac Gamble Block where it will test mineralization intercepted in previous drill campaigns.

A 200 line kilometer ground magnetic survey was proposed for the months of July and August. To date a total of 136 line kilometres with 50 meter spacing has been completed. Coverage over the main mineralized corridor has been completed and plans to complete the eastern portion remain a priority. The survey is currently being used to interpret structures to control and offset gold mineralization in the Piché Group.

Additional work consisting of stripping and expanding trench 4 on the Augmitto Block was recently completed. A strongly altered zone thought to be related to high grade mineralization observed in historic drilling (07-S-442=11.3g/t Au over 8.5m) was exposed during the trenching exercise. A mapping exercise of the exposed gold bearing veins will be incorporated into future drill hole planning in the immediate vicinity.

Gold Fields Sudbury is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gold Fields Limited, an unhedged, globally diversified producer of gold with eight operating mines in Australia, Ghana, Peru and South Africa. In February 2013 Gold Fields unbundled its KDC and Beatrix mines in South Africa into an independent and separately listed company, Sibanye Gold. In October 2013 Gold Fields acquired Barrick's Granny Smith, Lawlers and Darlot Gold Mines in Western Australia.Gold Fields subsequently has attributable gold-equivalent annual production of approximately 2.2 million ounces, Mineral Reserves of approximately 60 million ounces and Mineral Resources of approximately 158 million ounces. Gold Fields has a primary listing on the JSE Limited, with secondary listings on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NASDAQ Dubai Limited, Euronext in Brussels (NYX) and the Swiss Exchange (SWX).

For more information on the option and joint venture agreement entered into between Yorbeau and Gold Fields Sudbury, see press releases dated May 22, 2013 and June 26, 2013.

About Yorbeau Resources Inc.

The Company’s 100% controlled Rouyn Property contains four known gold deposits in the 6-km-long Augmitto-Astoria corridor situated on the western half of the property. Two of the four deposits, Astoria and Augmitto, have substantial underground infrastructure and have been the focus of NI 43-101 technical reports.

A recently completed comprehensive report on the Company may be found on the Company’s new website at www.yorbeauresources.com. The raison d’être of Yorbeau is to identify a world class gold deposit in a major mining camp.

Montréal, July 22, 2013 - Yorbeau Resources Inc. (TSX: YRB.A) (the “Company” or “Yorbeau”) is pleased to announce that Gold Fields Sudbury Exploration Corp., a 100% indirect subsidiary of Gold Fields Limited (“Gold Fields”), has commenced an exploration campaign on the Rouyn property in Quebec, Canada. The campaign will include a 2 phase drilling programme. Phase I will comprise 11,000m of drilling on the Cinderella, Augmitto, Lac Gamble and Astoria Blocks with a focus on expanding the known mineralized zones at depth along structural trends identified from Yorbeau’s extensive drilling carried out over the last few years. Phase I has begun with the first of seven holes totalling 2,000m to be drilled on the Cinderella Block, which hosted a significant new discovery in 2009. Phase II will comprise 8,000m of exploration drilling on the eastern portion of the Property. The exploration campaign will also comprise geophysical surveys and geochemical soil sampling.

This exploration programme is being carried out pursuant to the option and joint venture agreement with Gold Fields Sudbury Exploration Corp. The effective Commencement Date under the option and joint venture agreement is June 26, 2013.

Montréal, January 24, 2013- Yorbeau Resources Inc. ("Yorbeau") reports that its 2012 drilling campaign comprised 34 holes and 2 wedge-cuts for a total of 14,366 metres. All of these holes were drilled on the Lake Gamble Zone of the Rouyn Property and have confirmed the continuity of the gold bearing structures in this area resulting in an increase of the known mineralized envelope by about 30% compared to the previous year. The Lake Gamble Zone remains open to the east and to the west, and especially at depth as indicated by drill hole 12-GA-579 (see press release of September 6, 2012). The last hole in the program, 12-GA-602, returned a value of 5.6 g/t Au over 6.0 metres at a vertical depth of 230 metres.

In the coming weeks the technical staff of Yorbeau will devote itself to compiling and interpreting the results from the 2012 drilling program. These results will then be incorporated into a new resource estimate compliant with NI 43-101 which the Company intends to commission in the near future. This resource estimate will comprise the Lake Gamble and Cinderella Zones on the Rouyn Property which cover a strike length of approximately 3 km along the Cadillac Larder Lake Break (CLLB). These new resources will then be added to the known resources on the adjoining Augmitto and Astoria blocks for a global estimate of the ounces of gold contained on the western half of the Rouyn Property. In 2013 Yorbeau intends to continue exploring the numerous gold targets located on the property with an aggressive drilling program. It is expected that the program will also comprise drilling on the 6 km of largely virgin ground straddling the CLLB in the eastern half of the Rouyn Property.

Highlights of the recent drilling include the following assay drill holes:

The locations of the holes are shown on the attached figure. Although true width of the mineralized zones cannot be established with accuracy given the large spacing between holes, it is estimated that it may represent about 70% of core length.

The 2012 drilling program comprised a drilling pattern such that the piercing points of the various drill holes are located no more than 100 metres apart. This spacing should permit the estimation of resources in the inferred category under NI 43-101.

The qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 is Laurent Hallé, P.Geo., who has reviewed and approved the content of this release.

Samples are analyzed at ALS Chemex Laboratories in Val d'Or, Quebec. All samples are analyzed by standard fire assay. Samples returning more than 3 g/t are re-analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Yorbeau has implemented a QA/QC program that consists of inserting blanks and gold standards in batch samples being sent to the assay laboratory. Selected pulp samples will also be re-analysed by a different laboratory.

About Yorbeau Resources Inc.

A recently completed comprehensive report on the Company may be found on the Company's new website at www.yorbeauresources.com. The raison d'être of Yorbeau is to identify a world class gold deposit in a major mining camp. Against the backdrop of a market that is steadily more welcoming for gold, Yorbeau is poised to significantly increase the known gold resources on its properties in Northern Quebec.

Montréal, December 6, 2012- Yorbeau Resources Inc. ("Yorbeau") is pleased to provide the latest results from the drilling on the Lake Gamble Zone of its Rouyn Property. The drilling campaign has been ongoing since January 10, 2012 and will conclude in the coming days with drill holes 12-GA-600 and 12-GA-602. A total of 36 holes have been drilled and two wedges have been completed for approximately 14,415 metres of core on the Lake Gamble Zone. Five drill holes have been completed during the month of November, including hole 12-GA-593 which returned a grade of 3.7 g/t Au over 15 metres. The hole has extended the Lake Gamble Zone to the west at depth thereby increasing the mineralized envelope in this area (see the attached longitudinal).

The technical staff of Yorbeau is presently completing the logging and sampling of the mineralized intervals encountered in the last seven holes and continues to observe in all holes numerous specks of coarse gold as mentioned in the following table.

The purpose of the 2012 exploration program is to generate the data necessary to permit the preparation of resource estimates on the two targeted zones (Lake Gamble and Cinderella) compliant with NI 43-101. The new resources will be then added to the known resources on the Augmitto and Astoria Blocks for a global estimate of the ounces of gold contained on the Rouyn Property.

Highlights of the recent drilling include the following assay intervals:

The locations of the holes are shown on the attached figure. Although true width of the mineralized zones cannot be established with accuracy given the large space in between holes, it is estimated that it may represent about 70% of core length.

The current program comprises a drilling pattern such that the piercing points of the various drill holes are located no more than 100 metres apart. This spacing should permit the estimation of resources in the inferred category under NI 43-101.

Montreal, October 23, 2012 - Yorbeau Resources Inc. ("Yorbeau") is pleased to provide an update on its 2012 exploration program which is focused on the Lake Gamble Block of the Company's Rouyn property. A recent hole intersected two mineralized zones, respectively assaying 4.3 g/t gold over 13.0 metres and 35.0 g/t gold over 3.0 metres at a vertical depth of less than 200 metres.

The drilling campaign has been ongoing since January 10, 2012 with one drill rig in operation. Encouraging results at shallow depths prompted the Company to drill additional holes and a second drill rig has been mobilized to the property in order to accelerate completion of the program. To date 24 holes and two wedges between sections 7800 E and 8250 E have been completed for a total of about 10,000m. The Company anticipates drilling an additional 2,500m of NQ core and expects to complete the program around mid-December. The purpose of the program is to generate the data necessary to permit the preparation of a resource estimate on the Lake Gamble Block compliant with NI 43-101.

Highlights of the recent drilling include the following assay intervals:

Another hole, GA-592, recently completed on the same section as hole GA-591 at a vertical depth of 600 metres intersected a mineralized zone with 17 specks of visible gold over a core length of 5.0 metres; assays are pending.

The locations of the holes are shown on the attached figure. Although true width of the mineralized zones cannot be established with accuracy given the large spacing between holes, it is estimated that it may represent about 70% of core length.

The current program includes definition and in-fill drilling so that the piercing points of the various drill holes are located no more than 100m apart. This spacing should permit the estimation of resources in the inferred category under NI 43-101.

"We continue to be impressed by the continuity and extent of the mineralization at Lac Gamble in spite of the sampling challenges caused by the ubiquitous presence of coarse visible gold which accounts for high variability in gold assays. We remain confident that we are working on a significant gold deposit that ultimately may have to be proved up by underground exploration" says President and CEO David Crevier.

The qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 is Laurent Hallé, P.Geo., who has reviewed and approved the content of this release.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - Sept. 6, 2012)- Yorbeau Resources Inc. (TSX:YRB.A) ("Yorbeau") is pleased to provide an update on its 2012 exploration program which is focused on the Lake Gamble Block of the Company's Rouyn property.

The drilling campaign started on January 10, 2012 and continues at present with one drill rig in operation.To date 21 holes and two wedges between sections 7800 E and 8250 E have been completed for a total of 8,734.9m.The Company anticipates drilling an additional 4,500m of NQ core and expects to complete the program around December. The purpose of the program is to generate the data necessary to permit the preparation of a resource estimate on the Lake Gamble Block compliant with NI 43-101.

Highlights include the following assays at a vertical depth of 100 metres:

Other significant results include the following. Unless otherwise noted, all assays are from mineralized rocks from the Piché Group. The location of the holes is shown on the attached figure and assay details are shown below:

Although true width of the mineralized zones cannot be established with accuracy given the large spacing between holes, it is estimated to be about 70% of core length.

Drilling data on the Lake Gamble Block comprised of 48 holes drilled since 2006 has identified a panel of mineralization which has a strike length of 400 m and which measures in excess of 400m on the vertical axis, starting at a depth of approximately 100m.The current program includes definition and in-fill drilling so that the piercing points of the various drill holes are located no more than 100m apart.This spacing should permit the estimation of resources in the inferred category under NI 43-101.

Gold mineralization appears to be abundant, but assays are erratic with coarse visible gold being observed in 35 of the 48 holes (72%) in the Lake Gamble area.The erratic nature of the gold mineralization presents certain challenges with respect to appropriate sampling and the Company is currently working on establishing an improved protocol for processing samples for assaying.Preliminary indications are that, using a conventional protocol at a commercial laboratory, assay results demonstrate a variability of more than 300%.

Recently the Company drilled hole 12-GA-579 which was originally intended to target the Piché Group at a depth of 650m.The expected deviation in the drill hole did not occur with the result that the hole pierced the target formation at a depth of more than 800 m.This hole, one of the deepest on the Rouyn property to date, encountered 14m of mineralization with 43 specks of visible gold being observed in the core.It was decided to do a wedge off this hole and the result was hole 12-GA-579-W1B which encountered a mineralized section 16m in width with 83 specks of visible gold being observed in the core.Although complete sampling of these holes is being delayed until the Company establishes the new protocol better suited for coarse gold as mentioned above, holes 12-GA-579 and 579-W1B demonstrate clearly that the deposit is open at depth.

"In spite of the sampling challenges that we are experiencing at Lac Gamble, we are excited with the results obtained at shallow depth where we can see a significant 400 metre strike length of apparently continuous gold mineralization at a 100 metre depth." says President and CEO David Crevier. "These results, combined with the wide intercept at depth in holes 12-GA-579 and 579-W1B, set the stage for future exciting developments at our Rouyn property" adds Mr. Crevier. Upon completion of the present drilling program, the Company is targeting the completion of NI 43-101 compliant resource estimates for both the Lac Gamble and Cinderella Blocks.These estimates are expected to be available in the first quarter of 2013.When added to the two previous resource estimates on the adjoining Augmitto and Astoria Blocks, the Company will be able to present continuous defined resources along a 6 km long corridor in the western portion of the property.

The qualified person under National Instrument 43-101 is Laurent Hallé, P.Geo., who has reviewed and approved the content of this release.

Assays referred to in this press release were obtained at ALS Chemex Laboratories in Val d'Or, Quebec. All samples are analyzed by standard fire assay.Samples returning more than 3 g/t are re-analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish.Yorbeau has implemented a QA/QC program that consists of inserting blanks and gold standards in batch samples being sent to the assay laboratory.Selected pulp samples will also be re-analysed by a different laboratory.
