====================================================================== News Releases - Monday, July 23, 2007 Property Expanded and Field Work Commenced at the Corralitos Gold/Silver Property in Mexico ====================================================================== First Point Minerals Corp. ("First Point") (FPX:TSX:V) reports that it has increased the land position and commenced work on the Corralitos gold/silver property in the State of Chihuahua, Mexico which the Company recently optioned from Teck Cominco Limited's Mexican subsidiary, Minera Teck Cominco, S.A. de C.V. ("MTC"). First Point acquired the new ground by staking an additional 8,468 hectares around the 2,975 hectares optioned from MTC. This ground was acquired to cover additional areas of mineralization around the original showings. The combined land position is registered in the name of MTC and is subject to the Option-Joint Venture Agreement between First Point and MTC. Initial work includes silt sampling to cover the northwest margins of the old and new claims plus mapping, soil sampling and rock sampling in the initial key area where folds, faults and fractures deform the limestone and control a number of intrusions as well as the mineralized zones. More detailed work will include cleaning out old workings and trenching followed by mapping and sampling where 9 of 10 previous surface rock samples ranged from 6.2 to 13.9 grams per tonne gold in a 400 by 600 metre area. Results will be reported in the next few weeks. This work is designed to lead to a drilling programme later this year.
