Selkirk Metals Corp. ("Selkirk" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SLK) is pleased to provide this update of operations on the Ruddock Creek Property, located 100 km north-northwest of Revelstoke in the Kamloops and Revelstoke Mining Divisions, British Columbia. The decline, which is now at a length of 972 meters, has intersected the lower portion of massive sulphide mineralization at the Deep E-Zone. The decline, which is being driven at grade of -15%, is entering the mineralization from the footwall of the Zone and will continue until the Zone has been crossed completely and the upper contact or hanging wall has been intersected. Geological mapping and visual examination of the massive sulphide mineralization confirm the high percentages of sphalerite (Zn) with galena (Pb) with accessory pyrite and pyrrhotite that characterize the E-Zone. Similar massive sulphide mineralization has been defined to date throughout not only the E-Zone but overall throughout the five kilometer long "Ruddock Creek Massive Sulphide Horizon". "We are very pleased that this major underground development and exploration program continues to meet our expectations and confirm not only the location but most importantly the character of the E-Zone massive sulphides as known from the surface diamond drilling programs in 2004 to 2007," stated Gordon Keevil, President. In addition to completing the decline, which is expected to ultimately reach a length of approximately 1000 meters, the 900E crosscut will be completed. This crosscut will be 200 meters in length and is inclined upward at 10%. Four drill stations will be established at a 50 meter spacing along the crosscut to provide the drilling spacing necessary to complete a scoping study level resource calculation on the entire 1.2 kilometer length of the E-Zone as outlined to date. Approximately 10,000 meters of drilling is planned. It is important to note that the decline was located to encounter the E-Zone at the deepest most westerly known point. As indicated by the previous drill results, the E-Zone is thick and high grade at this location and is open to the west. The planned underground diamond drilling program will extend the Zone to the West. To date, five drill holes have been completed from a drill station located 650m from the portal entrance. A total of 1554.1m of NQ drilling has been completed to date. All holes have now been sampled and sent in for assay. A second drill has been mobilized and is set up at a drill station 785m from the portal entrance. This drill will evaluate the western extension of the E-Zone horizon. Drilling from this location is scheduled to commence by the weekend of August 23, 2008. Once the current drill hole is completed from the 650m drill station, this rig will be moved to the first drill station located along the 900m east crosscut. Drilling with both drills will continue throughout the fall. "We are very pleased with the continued excellent progress of the underground program and would like to acknowledge the work of our Project Management and Procon Mining and Tunneling Ltd., the prime contractor on site. We look forward to the completion of the decline, underground development program and the ongoing results from the diamond drilling program," stated Gordon Keevil, President.
