    Looking Statement </font><br>
    &nbsp; <br>
    <font size="2">This news release contains forward-looking statements that
    are based on current expectations and which involve risks and uncertainties,
    including those referred to in Taseko&#39;s Annual Information Form (&quot;AIF&quot;)
    filed with Canadian securities regulatory authorities, or Taseko&#39;s annual
    Form on 20F (&#34;20F&#34;) filed with United States securities regulatory
    authorities, that could cause actual events or results to differ materially
    from estimated or anticipated events or results reflected in the forward-looking
    statements. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding financial
    results and expectations for 2006 and include, among other things, statements
    regarding targets, estimates and/or assumptions in respect of copper production
    and/or copper prices, cash operating costs, expenditures on property, plant
    and equipment, increases and decreases in production, reserves and/or resources
    and anticipated grades and recovery rates and are or may be based on assumptions
    and/or estimates related to future economic, market and other conditions.
    Factors that could cause actual results, developments or events to differ
    materially from those anticipated include, among others, the factors described
    or referred to elsewhere herein and/or in the AIF and 20F, and include unanticipated
    and/or unusual events. Many of such factors are beyond Taseko&#39;s ability
    to control or predict. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated.
    Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements
    due to the inherent uncertainty therein. Taseko disclaims any intent or obligation
    to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of
    new information, future events or results or otherwise. </font><br>
