High Ridge Resources Inc. ("High Ridge") (TSX VENTURE:HRR)(FRANKFURT:HR2) is
pleased to announce that it completed the permitting process and is initiating
the drilling program at its Rosicler - El Domo project in the San Mateo area, 90
km east of Lima, Peru.


The drilling program will involve an initial 2,500-3,000 metres, which will test
the known mineralized targets, including the exposed 3 km long polymetallic
Rosicler vein, as well as large geophysical targets discovered by High Ridge's
recent geophysical program.


The priority targets on the Rosicler - El Domo property have been selected on
the basis of detailed geological mapping, surface channel chip sampling, and the
results of 3D IP (induced polarization) and surface magnetic surveys (High Ridge
press release April 10, 2008). One of the targets is a very large low
resistivity - high chargeability zone in the south-central portion of the survey
area that extends from El Domo. It is estimated that the first phase of the
drilling program will take up to 7-10 weeks to complete.


Chanape project

The first stage drilling program on the Chanape project progresses
satisfactorily. The Company is currently finishing drilling the second of the
numerous exposed mineralized hydrothermal breccia chimneys, after which, the 1.5
km long Fulvia vein and the associated body of mineralized, polymetallic breccia
will be tested.


Also on Chanape, High Ridge has concluded the second stage of a 3D IP and
magnetic surveys, extending the previously surveyed grid to the south in order
to further outline the anomalies that extend past the limits of the previous IP
survey (see High Ridge news release March 25, 2008). Both these surveys were
performed by Jose Arce Geofisicos S.R.L.; the geophysical report is expected by
the end of August. Drill permitting for this area is currently being completed.


Other activities

High Ridge also today announced completion of the private placement originally
announced on July 10, 2008. The placement consisted of 3,568,900 units ("Units")
at a price of $0.25 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $892,225.00.
