TYLER ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR 3 DIAMOND DRILL HOLES, INCLUDING 54.6 METERS GRADING 0.60% COPPER, 0.11 G/T GOLD, 8.7 G/T SILVER AND 0.64% ZINC

Tyler Resources Inc. is pleased to announce assay results for an additional 3 diamond drill holes at its Bahuerachi project, Chihuahua State, Mexico.

Assay results from diamond drill holes DDH-BAH-77, BAH-78 and BAH-83, which were drilled on section 8NE, continue to extend wide zones of porphyry and skarn related mineralization to the north. The discovery of wider zones of polymetallic porphyry-related skarn mineralization, including 54.6 meters at 0.60% copper, 0.11 g/t gold, 8.7 g/t silver, 0.64% zinc and 0.003 molybdenum, is a positive development in addition to the mineralized porphyry on this section.  This higher-grade skarn occurrence discovered by drilling did not outcrop and was therefore not anticipated in this area of the mineralized complex.

Results from drilling to date continue to confirm that the porphyry complex and related skarn system continues to the north and carries mineralization with open pit style potential.   Results are presented in the following table and discussed below.  A section for the drill holes as reported is posted with the news release on our website at www.tylerresources.com.  Drill hole collar locations are shown on the attached drill plan map.

Main Zone Drilling.

(1)Excludes 2.8 meters of unmineralized dyke.

(2)Excludes 31.85 meters of unmineralized dykes.

(3)Excludes 19.4 meters of unmineralized dykes.

(4)Excludes 64.6 meters of unmineralized dykes and 3 meters of no core recovery.

(5) Excludes 3.7 meters of unmineralized dykes.

All holes are considered to be tests of true widths of mineralization.  Widths of unmineralized dykes, due to drilling direction, can be exaggerated by 10-20% (refer to sections).

News Release – July 6, 2006

Hole DDH-BAH-78 intersected 209.15 meters averaging 0.31% copper, 0.25% zinc, 0.04 g/t gold, 4.0 g/t silver and 0.009% molybdenum, excluding 31.85 meters of post mineral dikes.   Included in this interval is 54.6 meters averaging 0.60% copper, 0.64% zinc, 0.11 g/t gold and 8.7 g/t silver, excluding 19.4 meters of post mineral dikes.  

Hole DDH-BAH-83 intersected 336.9 meters averaging 0.33% copper, 0.04 g/t gold, 2.8 g/t silver and 0.008% molybdenum, excluding 64.6 meters of post mineral dykes and a 3 meter interval of no core recovery.  This includes 22 meters averaging 0.83% copper, 0.06 g/t gold, 2.9 g/t silver, and 0.011% molybdenum.   Hole DDH-BAH-83 ended in mineralization within the Main Zone porphyry with the last 48.8 meters averaging 0.52% copper, 0.02 g/t gold, 6.0 g/t silver and 0.006% molybdenum, excluding one 3.7 meter wide post mineral dyke.

As drilling continues northwards in the Main Zone, a further positive development is the decrease of the overall amount and thickness of post-mineral dykes within the target area, as was expected from surface mapping.

Drilling in the Main Zone now continues to the north, towards and within the north porphyry lobe.  Drill holes RC-44, 45 and 46 and DDH-BAH-79, 81, 85, 86 and 88 have been completed.  Drilling in the Main Zone is continuing with RC-47 and diamond drill holes BAH-90, BAH-91 and BAH-93.

North Skarn Drilling

A total of 7 core holes and 4 short reverse circulation drill holes have been drilled into the North Skarn Zone, and the initial planned drill test of the zone is complete.  The core rig at North Skarn has been moved to the Main Zone while the North Skarn drill results are received, compiled, and interpreted.

About Tyler

Tyler Resources is a junior exploration company focused on base and precious metals exploration in Mexico. Tyler’s primary project is the Bahuerachi property, which hosts a large mineralized porphyry-skarn copper (Au, Ag, Mo, Zn) complex. The Company is well financed and is currently conducting a 35,000 meter combined diamond and reverse circulation drilling program scheduled to be completed during 2006, making it one of the most active Canadian junior exploration companies operating in Mexico.

All assay work was performed by ICP at ALS-Chemex labs of Vancouver, with gold done using standard fire assay methods.  All samples sent to the lab are sealed with security tags for delivery to ALS-Chemex. Duplicate samples as well as standards and blanks are inserted in each batch of samples delivered to the laboratory and then checked to ensure proper quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC).

The Qualified Person responsible for the design and implementation of the Field Program as well as the preparation of this news release was J. P. Jutras, P.Geol., and President of the Company. The work program is being carried out with the participation of Dr. Shane William Ebert, Ph.D, P.Geo, Vice President and Director, Dustin Rainey, B.Sc Geology, Grant Couture, B.Sc., M.Sc Geology and Cornell McDowell, B.Sc Geology, consultants to the Company.
