Success From Rambler's Surface Directional Drilling Program Continues

Drills 5.37% copper over 3.0 metres

LONDON, ENGLAND and BAIE VERTE, NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR--(Marketwire - Feb. 19, 2008) - Rambler Metals and
Mining plc (TSX VENTURE:RAB)(AIM:RMM) is pleased to announce new results from its surface diamond drilling
exploration program.

- RM08-08k returns 3.4 m of 1.96% copper with 2.55 g/T gold in the Ming Massive Sulphide Horizon

- RM08-08k returns 31.1 m of 2.12% copper in the Lower Footwall Stringer Zone

-- Including 3.0 m of 5.37% copper

Directional drilling targets for the RM08 drill setup were initially designed to test the deeper portions of
the Ming Massive Sulphide Horizon and Stringer Footwall Zones. The great success of this program over the last
number of months has confirmed the down plunge continuity of the Ming Massive Sulphide and both the Lower and
Upper Footwall Zones. All of these zones are open down plunge and remain a target for future exploration
programs.

Ming Massive Sulphide Zone (MMS)

Historically the Ming Zone produced some 2.2 million tons of ore grading 3.5% copper with 2.5 g/T gold. The
down plunge drilling on the RM08 setup has extended this horizon an additional 500 metres from the existing
development. More importantly, the drill spacing from this program will allow Rambler to add the extended MMS
to the indicated category, or better, when it embarks on its first NI43-101 resource estimate during calendar
2Q, 2008.

Upper Footwall Zone (UFZ)

The Upper Footwall zone was originally discovered during the 2006 drill program when RM06-04f intersected 6
metres of 14.6% copper with 1.6 g/T gold (see Rambler release July 13, 2006). The latest UFZ intersection from
RM07-08j has allowed Rambler to correlate this high grade zone an additional 200 metres down plunge bringing
its total plunge length to 350 metres.

Lower Footwall Stringer Zone (LFZ)

RM08-08k was drilled approximately 50 metres to the north-west of the original RM05-08 mother hole. Other drill
holes in this area have also returned multiple intersections of +2% copper confirming that both thickness and
grade of the LFZ is improving with depth. Finishing the surface footwall program on this positive note is
encouraging in that the depth potential of the LFZ is yet to be discovered.

Larry Pilgrim, P.Geo and Independent Consultant comments;

"It's very encouraging that drill hole RM08-08k, the deepest hole drilled to date on the down plunge of the
Ming Massive Sulphide and the Lower Footwall Stringer Zones, has intersected a continuation of the robust
massive and stringer mineralization and remains open at depth."

Dewatering Progress

With 175 million gallons of water pumped and treated from the old mine, water levels are currently nearing the
main crusher station on the 1800 level. As the water table recedes, new air, water and electrical services have
been installed. The Mine is expected to be fully dewatered by summer 2008. If warranted, Rambler would be in a
position to begin pre-production development once the Mine is fully dewatered.

Larry Pilgrim, P.Geo. is the Qualified Person responsible for the technical content of this release and has
reviewed and approved it accordingly. Mr. Pilgrim is an independent consultant contracted by Rambler Metals and
Mining plc.

All tonnes are dry metric tonnes.

Drill intercepts quoted are core lengths; true widths for the Ming, Upper and Lower Zones are estimated to be
90% to 95% of the intersected core lengths. Analytical results for Rambler core in this press release were
determined at Eastern Analytical, Springdale, NL. Samples are then shipped by courier to Activation
Laboratories Ltd., Ancaster Ontario, where a 34 element ICP analysis and gold fire assay are performed.
