Crowflight Drilling at Halfway Lake Intersects 13 Metres Grading
1.6% Nickel
======================================================================

CROWFLIGHT MINERALS INC. (Crowflight, the Company) (TSX Venture
Exchange: CML) is pleased to announce assay results for two of the four
holes completed on its Halfway Lake project, located in close proximity
to the Bucko Project south of Thompson, Manitoba. The most notable
result is Hole HW08-02 that intersected 13.03 metres (42.8 feet)
grading 1.58% nickel.

Nine holes totalling 4,800 metres have been completed since the
commencement of the 2008 winter exploration activities on Crowflight's
Xstrata Nickel joint venture (JV) properties in the Thompson Nickel
Belt in January. Assay results are currently available for two of the
nine completed holes. Please refer to Table 1 for a presentation of the
assay results and Figure 1 for a location map.

Greg Collins, Crowflight's Vice President of Exploration, commented on
the results stating: "We are pleased by the initial results from our
program at Halfway Lake. The intersection represents some of the
highest grade material encountered to date at Halfway Lake and expands
the limits of known mineralization up-dip from the known resource."

Intersection intervals reported are core lengths, actual true
widths are unknown at this time but are generally 70 to 80% of core
length. Once known, true widths are calculated for each
intersection. These could vary somewhat from time to time as the
zones are re-interpreted, thereby altering the geometry.

Presently three surface drill rigs supplied by More Core Diamond
Drilling Services Ltd. of Stewart, BC are engaged in drilling at
Halfway and Bucko Lake. Results from this program will be released over
the coming weeks as assay results become available. The Company plans
to complete 25 holes for a total of 10,000 metres during the entire
winter 2008 drilling season on the Xstrata JV.

Crowflight expects to finalize planning for the Pure Nickel/Crowflight
Manibridge JV exploration program in the coming weeks, with activities
expected to commence late in the spring of 2008.

Crowflight plans to spend $2.5 million on exploration on the Xstrata JV
(funded 100% by Crowflight), $2 million on delineation and definition
drilling underground at Bucko and $2 million on the Manibridge JV
(funded 50% by Crowflight and 50% by Pure Nickel) during 2008.


This press release has been prepared and reviewed by Mr. Greg Collins,
P.Geo (APGO/APEGM), a Qualified Person under the NI 43-101 guidelines.
Fire assays were performed at the ALS-Chemex laboratory in Vancouver on
all the samples for Gold and PGE's which undergo an ICP-AES finish and
Sodium Peroxide Fusion. All other metals undergo an ICP-AES finish.
Standards and blanks are submitted with each sample batch.
