CAMINO PROVIDES PROJECT UPDATE ON LOS CHAPITOS PROJECT

Camino Minerals Corporation ("Camino" or the "Company") (COR: TSX-V) is pleased to

report that the Phase 2 drill program has started at its Los Chapitos P roject

(“Chapitos”), located in southern Peru.

The diamond drill arrived at the property on May 12 and began drilling a few days

later. It is currently set up on Pad #1 and is drilling a twin hole to CHR -002 which

intersected 1.30% copper over 106 meters, including 2.12% copper over 38 meters, with

the hole ending in mineralization. Diamond drill hole DCH -001 is expected to drill

through this mineralization and continue to a proposed depth o f between 400 and 500

meters. The plans for a dditional drilling on the Adriana Zone will be finalized based

on observations from this first hole.

The Phase 2 program has been expanded and will now total at least 3,000 meters of

diamond drilling. Individual holes will range in length from 150 to 450 met ers. In an

effort to accelerate the pace of the program, a second diamond drill has been contracted.

This drill is expected to arrive before the end of May and will begin work testing the

Katty Zone. Drill results will be released as they become available.

In addition to the ongoing drill program, a number of other field activities are planned

over the coming months. Field crews will continue mappin g and prospecting the

property. R ecent work has discovered an extension of the Lourdes Zone, which is

located two kilometers northwest of the Adriana Zone. T he magnetic survey grid will

be expanded to cover the entire 6 kilometers of the eastern trend of mineralization.

Finally, the area covered by IP survey will be extended to the southeast from the current

grid over the Adriana and Katty zones across to cover both the Vicky and Pilar zones.

A summary presentation, including drill plans and sections, can be found on the

company website at www.caminominerals.com.

Kenneth C. McNaughton , M.A.Sc., P.Eng., is the Qualified Person (QP) responsible for

the Chapitos project.
