Farallon Signs Off-Take Agreements for G-9

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Jun 26, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX News Network) --

Farallon Resources Ltd. ("Farallon" or the "Company") (TSX: FAN)(OTCBB: FRLLF) announces that the Company has agreed to terms for the treatment of zinc, copper and lead concentrates from its G-9 Project at the Campo Morado (zinc, copper, lead, silver, gold) property in Guerrero State, Mexico.

A Heads of Agreement (the "Agreement") has been signed with the international metals trading company Trafigura Beheer BV Amsterdam ("Trafigura"). Trafigura has offices in Lucerne Switzerland, Mexico City and elsewhere around the world. The Agreement covers treatment of 100% of the zinc, copper and lead concentrates produced from the G-9 Project. Terms are competitive with the current market. The zinc contract is for 18 months commencing July 2008, with provisions to extend it for a further 1 1/2 years. The copper and lead contracts are for three years, extending to June 30, 2011. The concentrates will be shipped by truck to the port of Manzanillo, Colima State, on the west coast of Mexico and will be shipped to smelters and end users, primarily in Asia, but may involve users elsewhere in the world. All arrangements for transport to and storage at the port have been made. The Agreement is subject to the execution of final contracts for each concentrate, and to Farallon's Board for approval.

President and CEO, Dick Whittington, said, "We are extremely pleased to have signed this agreement with Trafigura to handle and process concentrates from G-9. We are looking forward to a long term partnership with them. This is another significant step in the ongoing evolution of transforming Farallon from an exploration to a production company."

Farallon is advancing the G-9 polymetallic (zinc, copper, silver, gold, lead) project at its Campo Morado Property in Mexico through a 'Parallel Track' program. Exploration drilling is expanding and confirming the high-grade mineralization within the G-9 deposit, in parallel with mine planning, equipment acquisition and site preparation and construction activities with the goal of commencing production in July 2008.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
