(TSX-V: RRM) (the\n\"Company\") is pleased to announce the results of drill hole eight of the\ncurrent drilling program which commenced in October 2005 on the Cerro Colorado\nporphyry copper target. Hole eight averaged 70.61 metres of 0.27% copper from\n1.5 to 72.11 metres, including 53.55 metres of 0.33% copper from 1.5 to 55.05\nmetres, 24.32 metres of 0.40% copper from 1.5 to 25.82 metres and 16.52 metres\nof 0.60% copper from 19.60 to 33.42 metres. The hole was drilled at -54\ndegrees at 018 azimuth at an elevation of 641 metres.\nExtensive alteration was detected throughout the hole. The hole was\nanomalous in copper throughout the 290.78 metres drilled. Analyses of core\nsamples were carried out by ALS Chemex in North Vancouver. Sample intervals\ngenerally ranged from 1.5 to 3 metres in length with variations determined by\ngeological boundaries. Quality control procedures included the insertion of\nblanks and standards at 20 sample intervals and a systematic reanalysis of\nduplicate samples at 20 sample intervals. Quality control was monitored by\nKennecott Exploration Company.\nSummaries of results are for samples containing 1000 ppm copper or\ngreater, or averages over larger intervals containing samples of greater than\n1000 ppm copper. Four sample intervals exceed 0.5% copper, including one\nsample returning 1.22% copper. The Company will post on its website a detailed\nlist of analyses from this hole. Uwe Schmidt P.Geo. is the qualified person\nmanaging the drill program.\nThe Company continues to be encouraged by the drill results received to\ndate. Results from holes nine through eleven will be released as they become\navailable.\nTo find out more about Ross River Minerals Inc.
