KAI Kenai Resources Ltd.

Kenai Resources Ltd. ("Kenai") (TSX VENTURE:KAI) is pleased to provide the
following update on the Sao Chico gold project in north central Brazil.


Drilling Update

The first three diamond drillholes (11-SC-001 to 003, to downhole depths of 86.2
meters, 80.5 meters and 111.9 meters respectively) have now been completed. In
the third hole, a 300mm wide quartz vein with massive abundant pyrite was
intersected at 92 meters downhole depth, flanked by smaller veins with massive
observed pyrite and some galena. The third hole is located close to the western
end of the Waldimiro Vein from which high grade underground sample assays were
reported by Kenai on August 31st.


The drilling program commenced with one shift per day and has now been increased
to two shifts per day. A second Minexplor rig is planned to be at the site by
the second week of October, and is expected to be operating by approximately
October 12th.


The drill holes are targeting vein structures near the Waldimiro Vein down dip,
beneath the high grade eastern end of the existing underground drive. Assay
results are expected from these first holes in November.


Settlement of Landowner Agreements

KAI has been instrumental in negotiating settlement of a landowner dispute on
the Sao Chico project. On 23rd September the disputing parties entered into
agreements that extinguish all litigation between them. Application has now been
made with the authorities to have AP12836 transferred into the Gold Aura Brazils
name, the company Kenai has an option over which will hold the Sao Chico
project.


About Sao Chico

The project is more completely described in Kenai's NI 43-101 Technical Report
on the project, details of which were contained in Kenai's news release of
January 20, 2011. It has since been filed on SEDAR and on Kenai's website at
www.kenairesources.com.


Sao Chico is located within the Tapajos region in Brazil, the site of one of the
biggest gold rushes in recent history. In the late 1970's and 1980s,
approximately 500,000 garimpeiros rushed to the region to exploit extensive
areas of newly discovered alluvial gold, producing approximately 20-30 million
ounces of gold before the easily won alluvial gold deposits were largely
depleted. Despite the gold rush, little modern exploration has been conducted
over the region to date, with excellent potential to expand gold operations at
Sao Chico. The Sao Chico project team has extensive experience and expertise of
operating within the region, which will provide a focussed and systematic effort
to gold production and exploration at Sao Chico.


As previously advised, Gold Anomaly via a wholly owned subsidiary will receive
all cash flow generated by GOAB at Sao Chico until Kenai exercises its options
to acquire 50% and then 75% equity in the Sao Chico mineral rights to the Sao
Chico project. The options expire at end-September 2012.


About Kenai Resources

Kenai is a Canadian company focused on precious mineral project exploration and
development, towards early significant gold production. In addition to the Sao
Chico gold project in Brazil, Kenai is also involved in exploration of the
wholly-owned Quartz Mountain and Hope Butte epithermal gold projects in
South-Eastern Oregon, both located in Malheur County, close to the Oregon border
with Idaho. Kenai's current indicated and historical gold resources from the two
Oregon projects are summarized as follows:

Footnotes: 

1.  For Quartz Mountain, resources above a 0.34 g/t cutoff with silver
    converted to gold equivalent using a ratio of 49.5:1 silver to gold.
    Metallurgical recoveries were not considered. Indicated resources are as
    reported in an independent November 2006 NI 43-101 report, posted on
    SEDAR at that time. 
2.  The Hope Butte resources are considered historic in nature, do not
    comply with current NI 43-101 standards, have not been verified by the
    Company and therefore should not be relied upon. It is uncertain if
    further exploration will result in the discovery of an economic mineral
    resource.
