Galena Capital Corp. (TSX VENTURE:FYI) (the "Company" or "Galena"), a resource
exploration and development company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the
"Exchange") wishes to provide an update on its on-going exploration program and
specifically comment on the Mercedes project, which is the next project the
Company will be drill testing in Mexico.


Galena is currently drilling at the Melissa project, where a 4-hole diamond
drill program is underway. Melissa is located in the state of Sonora, Mexico.
This work program is expected to be completed within the next 3 weeks.
Immediately upon completion of the Melissa drill program, the contractor will
demobilize the rig and related equipment and move to the Mercedes Project to
commence that drill program. A 20-hole program is planned with the initial phase
being 6 holes, with a minimum of 900 metres, dependant on the mineralization.


The Mercedes project is located in a historic mining district which has had many
operating mines in the past. The Mercedes project covers 360 hectares in the
north east quadrant of the province of Sonora, due east of the city of
Hermosillo. Exploration activities in the area have been ongoing and a number of
properties have current operations; including Alamo Gold's Mulatos project,
EXMIN Resources' Moris project, and Gammon Gold's Ocampo project.


The Company's work program is to complete a diamond drill program to test the
extent of the mineralized area; a number of step out holes will be drilled to
test the dimensions of the project. In addition, the Company proposes to drill
to depth to test the sulphide target. Infrastructure for the project is
excellent with access by a paved road from the city of Hermosilo. All permits
have been applied for and should be obtained by the end of May, 2008.


President Arni Johannson, states, "Galena continues to advance our projects and
expects the release of assay results from a number of our drill projects over
the course of the coming weeks." For the latest audio update from Mr. Johannson,
