Drilling Report

FOR: RAMBLER METALS & MINING PLC TSX VENTURE SYMBOL: RAB AIM SYMBOL: RMM June 26, 2007 Rambler Metals and Mining Begins Dewatering the Ming Mine LONDON, ENGLAND and BAIE VERTE, NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR--(CCNMatthews - June 26, 2007) - Rambler Metals and Mining plc (TSX VENTURE:RAB)(AIM:RMM) ('Rambler' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce that construction of its waste water treatment plant is now complete and dewatering of the Ming Mine has commenced. The Company expects to reduce the head of water inside the shaft to expose the 720 level by August this year. A period of rehabilitation will follow to provide access for the drill rig on this level. The dewatering of the entire mine is anticipated to be completed by the end of March 2008. The dewatering and rehabilitation of the historic mine will facilitate an underground drilling program targeting the Ming Footwall Zone (MFZ) and Ming Massive Sulphide Zone (MMS) which is expected to start at the end of 2007Q3. This underground drill program will allow a more effective and cost efficient means to delineate the deposits and facilitate a comprehensive assessment on potential mining scenarios of the remaining mineralization. All environmental permitting for the dewatering phase of the project has been approved. Rambler is also pleased to report some recent drill results from the directional drilling surface program as listed below. Ming Footwall Zone Holes RM07-04p through RM07-04r were drilled to test the southern and northern limits of the deposit. These holes mark the end of drilling operations on the RM04 drill setup, which have been ongoing since late 2005. The drill from this hole has been moved to the RM05-08 drill site and will target the Ming horizon and Footwall zones some 300 metres below the old mining face. /T/ ---------------------------------------------------------------- Hole From To Length Length Cu Au (m) (m) (m) (feet) (%) (ppb) ---------------------------------------------------------------- RM07-04r 1036.00 1039.70 3.70 12.12 2.12 199 RM07-04r 1069.50 1074.00 4.50 14.76 1.22 105 ---------------------------------------------------------------- /T/ Ming and 1807 Deposits The RM07-18 and RM07-19 series of drill holes are targeting the 1807 massive sulphide horizon which previously returned a high grade interval of 2.60 metres of 17.65% copper with 3.5 g/T gold in RM07-18. The zone has now been traced up plunge in several drill holes over relatively narrow widths that include RM07-19, which intersected 1.85m of 5.2% copper and 1.2 g/T gold. This high grade 1807 massive sulphide horizon remains untested, open at depth and will be a focus of further drill testing. /T/ --------------------------------------------------------------- Hole From To Length Length Cu Au (m) (m) (m) (feet) (%) (ppb) --------------------------------------------------------------- RM07-04p 904.85 906.50 1.65 5.40 2.13 1772 RM07-04q No Significant Mineralisation RM07-18d 599.90 600.50 0.60 1.97 6.60 1425 RM07-18e 600.50 601.20 0.70 2.30 0.85 1176 RM07-19 590.95 592.80 1.85 6.07 5.20 1953 RM07-19a 595.50 596.10 0.60 1.97 3.20 690 RM07-19a 597.20 597.50 0.30 0.98 7.90 2050 RM07-19b No Significant Mineralisation RM07-19c 591.65 592.30 0.65 2.13 4.30 1348 RM07-19d No Significant Mineralisation /T/ A complete listing of RMM drill intersections to date, as well as corresponding maps and figures can be found at www.ramblermines.com. Delineation and exploration drilling from surface will continue throughout the year, concurrently with dewatering operations. Additional results from this program are anticipated to be available for release within the next two weeks. Mark Graves, P.Geo. is the Qualified Person responsible for the technical content of this release. Mr. Graves is an employee of Rambler Metals and Mines plc. Drill intercepts quoted are core lengths; true widths are estimated to be 90% to 95% of the intersected core lengths. National Instrument 43-101 compliance information regarding sampling and analytical protocols pertaining to the Rambler Project can be accessed via the following link: http://www.ramblermines.com All tonnes are dry metric tonnes Mineral exploration on the Rambler property is being conducted by RMM personnel. All drill holes have produced 47.6 millimetre diameter (1.875 -inch) NQ diamond drill core. The drill core is descriptively logged on site, aligned, marked for sampling and then split in half, longitudinally, using a diamond saw blade. One-half of the core is preserved in core boxes for future reference. The samples comprising the other half of the core are bagged, sealed and delivered directly to the analytical laboratory by RMM personnel. Base metal-bearing samples are nominally 1 metre to 1.8 metres (3.28 to 5.90 feet) in length except where specific geologic parameters require that a smaller interval be sampled. Samples with suspected precious metal content are nominally one metre or less, depending on the geological circumstances. The sawed samples are delivered directly to Eastern Analytical Limited in Springdale, Newfoundland by RMM personnel where they are dried, crushed and pulped. Samples are crushed to approximately -10 mesh and split using a riffle splitter to approximately 300 grams. The sample split is pulverized using a ring mill to approximately 98% minus 150 mesh. In addition to regular samples, blank samples and quarter-split samples are also submitted for crushing/pulping. The sample pulps are picked up directly at Eastern Analytical Limited by RMM personnel and returned to the project site at which point analytical standard samples and duplicate samples are inserted into the sample stream. The quality control procedures utilized by RMM have been approved by Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. (Scott Wilson RPA). Their review was the basis of a technical report written by Scott Wilson RPA on the Rambler project conforming to NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. All sample rejects are also retrieved from Eastern Analytical by RMM personnel and securely stored by RMM. The sample pulps are shipped by courier to Activation Laboratories Ltd. in Ancaster, Ontario for analysis. A typical analysis consists of three, industry-standard components: (1) an aqua regia digestion followed by a 34 element ICP analysis, (2) a gold assay consisting of a one assay ton fire assay with finish by atomic absorption, and (3) an assay of specific base metals by aqua regia digestion followed by atomic absorption spectroscopy for those elements which exceed the limits of ICP accuracy. Check assays for the Rambler project are being conducted by ALS Chemex, using industry-standard techniques posted on their website. Check assays are also routinely performed at Eastern Analytical Limited. The drill program and sampling protocol are being supervised by Mark Graves, P.Geo.; a Qualified Person as defined under the Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 43-101. Historical Estimates For the Ming Mine, the most comprehensive historical estimates available derive from a review prepared in 1982 by D.M. Burton ("Burton"). In 1997 Canamera Geological Ltd. ("Canamera") was commissioned to do a feasibility study on the Rambler Property for Ming Minerals and drew heavily on Burton's work. Canamera reported remaining estimates on the property. Canamera concluded that the outlined mineral resource would not support an economically feasible operation. Note that these estimations and resources definitions are not in compliance with Canada's NI 43-101. Burton (1982) classified the MFZ resources as "Possible". The other resources have not been classified by Canamera (1997). These estimates are historical estimates and which should not be relied upon. See the technical report on the Rambler property available at www.sedar.com for the full details and qualifications regarding these estimates. -30- FOR FURTHER INFORMATION PLEASE CONTACT: Rambler Metals and Mining Canada Limited George Ogilvie VP & COO (709) 532-4990 OR Rambler Metals & Mining Plc Leslie Little Company Secretary 020-7661-8104 Website: www.ramblermines.com OR Insinger de Beaufort Nandita Sahgal 020-7190-7000 The TSX Venture Exchange has neither approved nor disapproved the contents of this press release.
