VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA is pleased to report assays from eight additional holes from the 2007 Diamond Drilling Program.

Current drilling in the East Zone has extended mineralization from the historic discovery hole of DDH #55 for a distance of 340 meters (1116 feet) to the east to DDH #79.

DDH #79 drilled during 2007 has an assay interval of 0.34% Cu, 0.022% Mo, 2.30 Ag gm/t, 0.129 Au gm/t for 247.8 meters (813.0 feet). These values represent a copper equivalent of 0.62% for the entire 813 foot mineralized intersection. It is noted that 33.22 meters (109.0 feet) assayed 1.271% Cu, 0.054% Mo, 15.33 Ag gm/t, 0.715 Au gm/t - copper equivalent of 2.53%. This hole was completed to a depth of 390.15 meters (1420 feet) and represents a copper equivalent of 0.49% over the 1280 foot mineralized intersection.

Two holes completed in the Bornite Zone returned the following intercepts:

DDH #75 - 69.64 meters (228.5 feet) of 0.345% Cu, 0.008% Mo, 0.64 gm/t Ag, 0.107 gm/t Au including 38.85 meters (127.5 feet) of 0.416% Cu, 0.005% Mo, 0.25 gm/t Ag, 0.022 gm/t Au (copper equivalent of 0.480%).

DDH #76 - 84.43 meters (277.0 feet) of 0.55% Cu, 0.006% Mo, 3.75 gm/t Ag and 0.105 gm/t Au (copper equivalent of 0.686%).

Two other holes, DDH #70 and DDH #74, were reported upon previously in the Company's News Release dated December 14, 2007.

Significant results are tabulated in the following chart with copper equivalents included.

Copper, molybdenum, silver, gold and copper equivalent values calculated utilizing metal prices in US dollars of $2.80 for copper, $28.00 for molybdenum, $12.00 for silver and $800.00 for gold are included in the assay result tables.

Metallurgical recoveries and smelter returns are assumed at 100%.

The 2007 Diamond drilling program has substantially advanced the Property towards the objective of establishing a large copper-molybdenum-gold-silver porphyry deposit.

Of particular importance is the increased value of the molybdenum and gold mineralization which contributes substantially to the potential value of the property.

The Eaglehead project is located 45km east of the Town of Dease Lake and is accessed by the Caribou Pass Road that connects Dease Lake to the Eaglehead, Tournagain (Hard Creek Nickel) and the Kutcho (Sherwood Copper) projects.

The 2007 diamond drilling consisted of a total of 4,098 meters (13,444 feet) in twelve holes on several different mineralized zones, Bornite, East and Far East. To date there has been a total of 19,407 meters (63,674 feet) of drilling conducted in 81 drill holes on the Eaglehead Property. During the past two years the Company drilled a total of 22 holes representing 7,174 meters (23,537 feet). Previous operators drilled a total of 59 holes for a total of 12, 233 meters (40,135 feet).

The 2007 3D IP geophysical survey indicates that mineralization from the Pass Zone to the East Zone is continuous for a distance of 2,750 meters (9,022 feet). The section between the Bornite Zone and the East Zone, an area 500 meters (1,640 feet) wide has not been drill tested.

DDH #79 has extended the known mineralization for a distance of 340 meters (1,116 feet) to the east of the historic discovery hole DDH #55. (DDH #55 assayed 0.51% Cu, 0.007% Mo, 2.38 Ag gm/t, 0.089 Au gm/t over 138 meters (453 feet) (copper equivalent of 0.639%).

DDH #69A completed in 2006, testing the down dip projection of DDH #55 returned a 165.35 meter (542.48 feet) interval assaying 0.358% Cu, 0.017% Mo, 1.14 Ag gm/t, 0.054 Au gm/t (Copper equivalent of 0.56%).

DDH #74 located 165 meters (541 feet) east of DDH #55 returned an average of 334.4 meters (1,097 feet) at 0.38% copper equivalent or 264.87 meters (869 feet) at 0.422% copper equivalent. DDH #62 completed in 2006 which was lost at 240 meters because of caving assayed 0.386% Cu, 0.0039% Mo, 0.51 Ag gm/t, 0.015 Au gm/t (Cu Eq 0.43) for 50.6 meters (166.0 feet).

Assay results from DDH's #80 and #81 drilled on the Far East Zone together with 58 soil samples should be available within the next few weeks.

Assays were conducted by Acme Analytical Laboratories Ltd. Assay method - 1.000 GM sample, Aqua - Regia (HCL - HN03 - H20) digestion to 100 ml, analysed by ICP-ES. Ag & Au by fire assay from 1 A.T. sample.

Updated plans covering the results of the 2007 programs will be posted shortly on the company's website www.carmaxex.com.
