ROCA - MAX Exploration Drilling Update
======================================================================

Vancouver, British Columbia: Roca Mines Inc. (ROK: TSX-V) ("Roca" or
"the Company") provides the following update on the exploration
drilling activities at the MAX Molybdenum project. The focus of this
drill program is to identify extensions to known mineralization and to
assess the larger potential of additional porphyry systems at depth.

Five Diamond drill holes totaling approximately 4,800 metres have been
completed to date. All the holes were collared from a common
underground drill station within the No.1 Adit, east of the deposit at
a location that does not impede production mining.

Drilling rates have been excellent and the site currently has an
accumulation of core to log and sample in detail. As a result, the
Company's geological staff and members of its exploration advisory
board have completed an initial assessment of 40-50% of the core
drilled to date. Their assessment indicates that drilling has
intersected significant alteration, and associated visible molybdenite
mineralization extending at least 200 metres below the known resource
and that it remains open at depth. Also, mineralized and altered pre-
and inter-mineral feeder structures have been intersected along the
eastern margin of the stock.

The Company is very encouraged with the potential indicated by this
initial assessment and follow-up drilling is being planned. Sample
assays for the first three holes are pending and will be reported along
with a geological interpretation in a subsequent update.

Further drilling will likely be carried out from a new drill station
near the west end of the No. 1 Adit, which cannot be undertaken until
mine development work in that area progresses. As a result, the drill
is currently being demobilized until a full interpretation of all of
the results is completed and a suitable drill station is prepared.
