Messina Minerals ("MMI") Infill Intersects Boomerang: 11.93
meters of 8.7% Zinc, 8.1% Lead, 1.0% Copper, 248 g/t Silver, 6.1
g/t Gold
======================================================================

Messina Minerals Inc. has completed three new infill holes at the
Boomerang zinc-lead-copper-gold-silver massive sulphide deposit that
all continue to indicate excellent continuity of thickness and high
base metal enrichment. Two of the three holes exceeded expectations in
terms of thickness of mineralization.

GA07-233 intersected an 11.93 meter (9.5m true thickness) interval of
8.7% zinc, 8.1% lead, 1.0% copper, 248 g/t silver, and 6.1 g/t gold,
within a broader 20.6 meter interval (16.5 meter true thickness) of
5.6% zinc, 5.2% lead, 0.6% copper, 163 g/t silver, and 3.9 g/t gold.
GA07-233 intersected greater than expected thickness of mineralization
compared to GA05-52 (7.9 meters) 25 meters to the west and GA05-41
(20.05 meters) 25 meters to the east.

GA07-234 intersected expected grade and thickness of mineralization
compared to GA06-134 (25 meters west) and GA05-62 (25 meters east).

GA07-235 intersected a 5.17 meter (4.1m true thickness) interval of
13.1% zinc, 7.9% lead, 0.7% copper, 259 g/t silver, and 4.8 g/t gold,
within a broader 20.75 meter interval (16.6 meter true thickness) of
6.3% zinc, 3.4% lead, 0.4% copper, 121 g/t silver, and 2.2 g/t gold.
GA07-235 intersected greater than expected thickness of mineralization
compared to GA05-88 (9.52 meters) 15 meters above and to the west and
GA05-79 (14.0 meters) 15 meters to the east.

Assay results are tabulated below.


The three drills currently available to Messina are working testing
'gaps' in the drill spacing at Boomerang intended to increase
confidence in the continuity and grade of the deposit. The infill
drill program will continue until June 3rd at the latest and data from
this program will be incorporated into an independent mineral resource
estimate provided by Snowden Mining Industry Consultants inc.
("Snowden") anticipated to be available later in June 2007.

Messina is drilling zinc-lead-copper-silver-gold enriched massive
sulphides at and adjacent to the Boomerang massive sulphide mineral
resource, within the Company's Tulks South Property located in central
Newfoundland, Canada. The Tulks South Property represents a portion of
the 327 square kilometer area of Messina's central Newfoundland mineral
land holdings. The region is historically known as prospective for
zinc-rich deposits and home to the formerly producing world-class base
metal deposits at Buchans and currently home to a producing zinc-copper
mine at Duck Pond.

Specific gravity testing, rock quality determinations and photographic
logging of all massive sulphide intersections are performed
systematically by Messina staff prior to assaying. Assays are
performed by Eastern Analytical Limited of Springdale, Newfoundland.
Check assays and other lithogeochemical analyses are performed by
Chemex Labs of North Vancouver, British Columbia. The Company is and
will continue to use methodical and geoscientifically accepted
procedures for assaying including quality control and quality assurance
(QA/QC) including the use of duplicates and standards for all
analytical testing. Drill holes are assigned a number if they are
started and reach bedrock; hole numbers not referenced are those
terminated before reaching target due to bad ground or excessive
deviation.

Kerry Sparkes, Vice President Exploration of Messina Minerals Inc. is
the Qualified Person responsible for exploration on the Company's
properties in central Newfoundland and the person responsible for the
technical data contained within this news release.
