Global Hunter Announces Drill Results Including 18 Metres of 2.96 Percent Copper

29/01/2008 4:27pm

Marketwired Canada


Global Hunter Corp.(TSX VENTURE:BOB) ("Global Hunter" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce final results from its recent drill program totaling nearly
9,600 metres on Las Posadas shear zone at La Corona de Cobre project, Chile. The
purpose of the program was to in-fill drill and further delineate the known
copper oxide deposit; determine the boundaries of the oxide deposit in three
dimensions; explore for possible extensions; provide sufficient core material
for final copper oxide metallurgical testing; and assess the peripheral and
deeper copper sulfide potential of the deposit below the current National
Instrument ("NI") 43-101 qualified copper oxide resource and the oxide resource
pit outline.


Highlights of the assay results include the following (complete results can be
found in Appendix A attached hereto):


- Hole LP- 82 encountered 10 metres of 2.14 percent copper;

- Hole LP- 85 encountered 52 metres of 1.75 percent copper,

  - including 18 metres of 2.96 percent copper;

- Hole LP- 86 encountered 64 metres of 0.71 percent copper;

  - Including 6 metres of 2.23 percent copper.

"We are very pleased with the positive results from our drill program on Las
Posadas, and now have the entire existing resource drilled on 50 metre centres,"
stated Mr. Rod Husband President & CEO of Global Hunter. "We plan to drill some
of the additional oxide targets in the coming months to increase the total
amount of copper oxide mineralization on the project and continue to
aggressively pursue engineering studies on Las Posadas."


The Company's technical team is currently compiling new maps and cross-sections
of Las Posadas deposit and these will be posted on the Global Hunter website,
www.globalhunter.ca, as they become available. The Company also expects
additional assay results to become available shortly and release the data upon
receiving it.


A summary of the sampling handling, QA/QC program, sample preparation and
analytical methods are described in the Company's previous news release
pertaining to drill results.
