    MILLION FINANCING ARRANGED </strong></font></font></p>
  <p align="justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><b>October
    30, 2003, Vancouver, BC</b> &#45; Ronald W. Thiessen, President and CEO of
    Taseko Mines Limited (TSX Venture:TKO; OTCBB:TKOCF) announces that Taseko
    has reached agreements in principle to privately place 6.7 million units in
    its capital at a price of $0.60 for gross proceeds of $4 million to a number
    of accredited investors, including approximately 30% participation from Company
    insiders. Each unit will consist of one common share and a share purchase
    warrant exercisable to purchase an additional common share at a price of $0.75
    for a two year period from completion of the financing which is expected to
    occur in early December. Proceeds from the placement will be used for sustaining
    ongoing standby operations, engineering and general working capital. The offering
    is subject to execution of definitive agreements and TSX Venture Exchange
    acceptance which is expected in the ordinary course. The common shares in
    the units and the shares issuable on exercise of the warrants will be subject
    to a four month resale restricted period in the principal Canadian jurisdictions.
    <br>
    &nbsp; <br>
    The common share purchase warrants are subject to an accelerated expiry if,
    at any time following the expiration of the four-month hold period, the published
    closing trade price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is greater
    than or equal to $1.50 for any 10 consecutive trading days, in which event
    the Holder will be given notice that the Warrants will expire 45 days following
    the date of such notice. The Common Share Purchase Warrants may be exercised
    by the Holder during the 45 day period between the notice and the expiration
    of the Common Share Purchase Warrants. <br>
    &nbsp; <br>
    ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS <br>
