SECTION 8 – OTHER EVENTS

Item 8.01   OTHER EVENTS

Daybreak Mines, Inc. a Washington corporation, is pleased to announce it has entered into an agreement with MPG Petroleum Inc., a private company in San Antonio, Texas, to drill an eight thousand two hundred foot Frio test well. The well is located onshore on the Gulf Coast of Texas and will twin an old well that the management believes has indications of commercial oil production based upon well log information. The prospect is called Ginny South and has the same log characteristics as the nearby Ginny East field which produced approximately 1.5 million barrels of oil and 1.5 Bcf over its productive life. The Ginny South prospect is a separate structure of approximately the same size as the Ginny East field.

It is anticipated four additional wells may be drilled on the Ginny South prospect.
Daybreak Mines has committed to a 25% working interest in the project subject to a 75% net revenue interest. The well drilling is expected to commence by the end of July, 2005.

The Ginny South prospect is the first of several oil and gas projects Daybreak is assembling. The company believes it will ultimately have several drilling prospects of various risk levels.
