    Solana Resources Limited ("Solana" or the "Company") - Corporate Update

    CALGARY and LONDON, UK, June 10 /CNW/ - Solana Resources Limited (TSX-V:
SOR; AIM: SORL) announces that the Topocho-1 well, testing a structure
identified on 3-D seismic and located on the Garibay block in the Llanos
Basin, Colombia, has been plugged and abandoned.
    In November 2007, Solana farmed out 50% and operatorship of the Garibay
block to CEPSA Colombia SA ("CEPCOLSA"). Under the farmout terms, Solana
retains a 50% working interest in the Garibay block and CEPCOLSA is
responsible for 100% of the drilling, completing and testing costs associated
with the Topocho-1 well.
    CEPCOLSA is a wholly owned subsidiary of Compania Espanola de Petr�leos,
S.A. ("CEPSA"), the Spanish based diversified energy company. The Garibay
block is subject to a fiscally attractive Agencia Nacional de Hidrocarburos
contract.
    The well reached a total depth of 8,920 feet on May 8, 2008, and
following logging and pressure gradient tests, was cased. Cased hole drill
stem tests were subsequently conducted in the Gacheta, Guadalupe and Mirador
formations but failed to yield oil. Drilling and testing was performed with
the Pioneer Rig 52 that is under long term contract to Solana.
    Over the coming months, Solana will evaluate its continued involvement in
the Garibay block.
    Mr. Glenn Van Doorne, Chief Operating Officer of Solana, a Petroleum
Geologist, is the qualified person who has reviewed the technical information
contained in this news release.
    Further to the announcement released on May 30, 2008, by Solana
concerning a change to the board of directors, the Company now provides
additional information on Mr. Morelli to be disclosed pursuant to Rule 17 and
Schedule Two paragraph (g) of the AIM Rules for Companies as follows:

    Full Name: Luis Miguel Morelli    Age: 48

    There are no other matters to be disclosed pursuant to Rule 17 and
Schedule Two paragraph (g) of the AIM Rules for Companies for this director.

audited financial statements and management's discussion and analysis for the
year ended December 31, 2007, was mailed to shareholders on April 10, 2008.
