Tyler Resources Samples 4,720 g/t Silver (4.72 kg/t) and 30 Meters Grading 2.5% Zinc,

0.39% Copper and 7.1 g/t Silver In New Surface Discoveries at Bahuerachi

Tyler Resources Inc. is pleased to announce results from continuing surface work at Bahuerachi.  This work aims to build on the main Bahuerachi Deposit by discovering additional mineral deposits that could be accretive in value to a potential bulk tonnage, open pit style operation at the already identified Main Zone.

Surface work has identified two new significant areas of mineralization on the property and peripheral to the Main Zone deposit.  At Mina Valencia (see map), a series of small mostly collapsed and partly covered historical adit returned high grade silver in poorly exposed quartz veins.  These are located approximately 2.5 km north of the known Bahuerachi porphyry complex, and justify further surface work due to the high grade nature of the mineralization (4.72 kg/t silver in mine dumps).

In the north part of the property, in an area called Cerro Prieto/Silica Hill, widespread high grade zinc +/- copper, and silver mineralization has been discovered by surface sampling over an area of some 250 meters by 50 meters (Silica Hill), with regional spot high grades results covering an area of roughly 1.3 km by 1.0 km. Mineralization in this widespread area is found in skarns, as well as marble breccias and zones of intense silicification cutting across different lithological units.  Assays to date, with numerous results outstanding from sampling conducted before year-end, outline a potentially significant new mineralized area located roughly 5 km from the current Bahuerachi Deposit. This area will see more surface work in the coming months, as development style drilling continues on the Main Bahuerachi Deposit.

The table below highlights some of the new sampling results, which are displayed on the attached property location map.

About Tyler

Tyler Resources is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on base and precious metals exploration in Mexico. Tyler’s primary project is the Bahuerachi property, which hosts Mexico’s fourth largest known mineralized porphyry system. The Company is now in the advanced stage of a 35,000 meter combined diamond and reverse circulation drilling program extending into 2007, 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, M.Sc Geology, Paul Turnbull, B.Sc, P.Geol and Cornell McDowell, B.Sc Geology, consultants to the Company.
