Antares Announces Updated Copper Resource for Near-Surface Leachable Portion of Haquira Project
Antares Minerals Inc. (“Antares”; ANM-TSX.V) is pleased to announce an updated independent NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate for the near-surface leachable1 portion of the Haquira copper project in southern Peru. The updated estimate was prepared by Chlumsky, Armbrust, and Meyer L.L.C., (“CAM”) of Denver, Colorado, USA and includes all drill results (97 drill holes for 14,355.5 m) from the 2006 in-fill drilling campaign. This resource estimate supersedes the previous estimate, also prepared by CAM, based upon all drilling through the end of 2005 (see press release of Feb 14, 2006). The focus of this work was on the near-surface, leachable copper mineralization at Haquira. The recent 2007 drill results from the newly discovered higher grade primary copper-molybdenum deposit at Haquira East are not included in the estimate. |

Antares First Deep Drill Hole Confirms Porphyry Cu-Mo-Au Discovery At Haquira East
Antares Minerals Inc. (“Antares”; ANM-TSX.V) is pleased to announce the results from the first hole of the current drilling program at the Haquira Project in southern Peru. The objective of the 5,000 m (minimum) program is to delineate recently discovered high-grade primary porphyry copper-molybdenum-gold mineralization beneath the secondary copper blanket at the Haquira East zone (see press release of July 3, 2007). Diamond drill-hole AHAD-098A was completed to a depth of 613.55 m and is the first hole to test a significant proportion of the vertical extent of the Haquira East porphyry deposit. The initial 77.1 m of the hole consists of post-mineral colluvium. The remainder of the hole intersected monzonite porphyry with extensive sheeted and stockwork quartz veins and associated copper sulphide mineralization. The hole intersected 380.65 m with 0.67% Cu (0.3% Cu cut-off grade) which contains a higher grade interval of 94.7 m with 0.89% Cu. The hole terminated in lower grade (0.25% Cu) mineralization where a major fault was intersected which could not be safely traversed. Highlights of the copper grades encountered are listed in the table below (please refer to the Antares website at www.antaresminerals.com for drill-hole location maps, sections, and photos of drill core): Drill-hole from (m) to (m) Length (m) Cu% Mo% Au g/t Cu eq % (*) Comments number AHAD-098A 77.10 613.55 536.45 0.55 0.010 0.07 0.65 complete hole below colluvium including 109.80 490.45 380.65 0.67 0.013 0.08 0.79 0.3% Cu cut-off grade including 276.55 398.25 121.70 0.83 0.006 0.10 0.92 approximate 0.50 Cu% cut-off including 307.20 401.90 94.70 0.89 0.003 0.11 0.97 approximate 0.75 Cu% cut-off (*) Copper Equivalent is calculated for intervals dominated by primary mineralization using US$1.00/lb Cu, US$400/oz Au, and US$6.00/lb Mo and is not adjusted for metallurgical recoveries as these remain uncertain. Metallurgical recoveries and net smelter returns are assumed to be 100%. The formula used is as follows: CuEQ = Cu% (Au g/t x 12.86/22.05) (Mo% x 132.28/22.05). John Black, President and CEO of Antares Minerals Inc. commented as follows: “We are very pleased with the results from the first follow-up test of the Haquira East porphyry Cu-Mo-Au deposit. Copper mineralization has proven to be vertically extensive for at least 380 m (0.3% Cu cut-off) and the possibility for significant tonnage has increased notably. The intensity and pervasive nature of the porphyry-style sheeted and stockwork quartz veins and associated copper sulphide mineralization also indicate that we are well on our way to defining a major new porphyry copper-molybdenum-gold deposit. The mineralized primary porphyry copper system at Haquira East (0.3% Cu cut-off) has minimum dimensions of 750 m by 450 m in plan view and remains open to the south where the current drill campaign is focussed. The second drill hole of this campaign is now underway and a second drill rig will be mobilized to site in the next few days. We look forward to providing additional results in the near future.” |

Antares Commences Drill Program to Delineate New High-Grade Cu-Mo
Antares Minerals Inc. (“Antares” or the “Company”, ANM.TSXV) is pleased to announce that a drill program has started at the Haquira copper project in Peru. One rig is currently drilling and a second rig has been delayed, but is scheduled to be on the property by mid-July. The program will consist of a minimum of 5,000 m of drilling with a strong probability that the total meterage will be increased. The objective of the program is to delineate recently discovered high-grade primary copper-molybdenum mineralization beneath the secondary copper blanket at the Haquira East zone. In February 2007 Antares announced that in-fill drilling to define near-surface leachable copper mineralization at the Haquira East zone had led to the discovery of underlying high-grade primary copper-molybdenum sulphide mineralization. This discovery was in addition to confirmation of grades and thicknesses expected in the near-surface leachable portion of the deposit. Drill holes at the Haquira East zone typically pierce the near-surface secondary copper zone and terminate in 20-100 m of underlying primary copper sulphide mineralization hosted within a monzonite porphyry stock with abundant stockwork quartz veining. Two slightly deeper holes, drilled in late 2006, intersected high-grade primary copper-molydenum sulphide mineralization at the bottom of the holes as indicated below: - AHAD-097: 52.10 m with 1.10% Cu, 0.101% Mo, and 0.12 g/t Au (1.78% Cu equivalent); hole terminated at 252.7 m, final 3.1 m of hole is post-mineral pebble breccia with low grades - AHAD-082: 42.80 m with 0.97% Cu and 0.077% Mo (1.43% Cu equivalent); hole terminated at 249.8 m in 1.18% Cu and 0.22% Mo |

Antares Commences 15,000 m Drill Program at Rio Grande Copper-Gold
Antares Minerals Inc. (“Antares”, ANM.TSX-V) announces that a 15,000 m drill program has started on the Rio Grande copper-gold porphyry project in northwestern Argentina. Antares is earning a 50% interest in the Rio Grande project pursuant to an agreement with Mansfield Minerals Inc. (“Mansfield”, MDR.TSX-V). Antares will complete the required expenditures to vest its 50% interest in the property within the next 30 days. Upon vesting, Antares and Mansfield will enter into a definitive joint venture agreement to fund ongoing development at Rio Grande on a 50/50 basis with Antares as the operator. Two rigs are currently drilling and a third rig has just arrived on the property and will commence drilling within the next few days. The objectives of the program are (1) to follow-up on encouraging results from previous drilling campaigns in the Sofia and Discovery Zones, (2) to drill test the remaining two-thirds of the system that has not been adequately explored to date, and (3) to provide an initial drill test of the satellite Northeast Target which bears geological and geochemical similarities to the nearby Lindero gold deposit owned 100% by Mansfield. |

Antares Announces Additional Positive Drill Results From The Haquira SX-EW Copper Deposit and Change in its Management Team
May 10th, 2007 (Waterdown, Ontario). Antares Minerals Inc. (“Antares”; ANM-TSX.V) is pleased to announce results from fifty-six additional drill holes (7,868.1 m) and to report on progress toward completion of an updated resource estimate for the Haquira copper project in southern Peru. The drill holes reported in this release are primarily infill holes from the leachable1 portions of the Haquira West Zone and represent the remainder of the holes to be reported from the scoping and initial infill drilling campaign completed in late 2006. The results continue to demonstrate good continuity within the higher grade portions of the deposit. Positive outcomes from the complete 2006 drilling program include: 1. Confirmation of near surface, high-grade zones along the northern portion of the Haquira West Zone with positive implications for a starter pit to enhance project financial returns; 2. Demonstrated continuity of grade and thickness between previous widely spaced drill holes; 3. Identification of a probable underestimation of copper grades by early reverse-circulation drill holes in areas of high-grade secondary chalcocite mineralization, and 4. Discovery of high-grade primary Cu-Mo mineralization beneath the secondary copper blanket at the Haquira East Zone (see press release of February 26, 2007). |

Highlights of results from the ten diamond drill holes completed in late 2006 at the Haquira East Zone include: Primary sulphide mineralization: • AHAD-097: 52.10 m with 1.10% Cu, 0.101% Mo, and 0.12 g/t Au (1.78% Cu Eq) final 3.1 m of hole is post-mineral pebble breccia with low grades – mineralization may continue at depth • AHAD-082: 42.80 m with 0.97% Cu and 0.077% Mo (1.43% Cu Eq) – remains open to depth, hole terminated at 249.8 m in 1.18% Cu and 0.22% Mo • The mineralized porphyry Cu-Mo system currently shows minimum dimensions of 750 by 450 metres in plan and remains open to the south and to depth Near-surface leachable secondary mineralization: • AHAD-075: 66.7 m with 0.76% Cu (69% soluble) • AHAD-089: 47.3 m with 0.48% Cu (74% soluble) • AHAD-091: 53.6 m with 0.59% Cu (77% soluble) • AHAD-094: 39.3 m with 0.57% Cu (63% soluble) |
