Lexaria Corp. (OTC BB:LXRA.OB)

Q1 Revenues Increase and Companies Goes Cash Flow Positive

announce an increase in revenues for the first fiscal quarter ending January 31, 2008 and has for the first time generated positive cash flow.

  • Revenues Increase as a result of Increased Oil & Gas Production

  • For the three months ending January 31, 2008, Lexaria recorded revenue of $354,340 compared to just $21,127 in the quarter ending January 21, 2007. The increase in revenue is due to increased oil and natural gas production and is evidence of Lexaria’s sensible business plan that has concentrated on building a sustainable business and operating company.
  • revenues for the first fiscal quarter ending January 31, 2008 and has for the first time generated positive cash flow.

President Chris Bunka said, “While our absolute numbers are still small, I’ve always been confident that we would turn cash flow positive and begin to generate a gross profit. Lexaria is growing rapidly and I expect to exit 2008 at far higher production and revenue rates than we began the year. This is the year that we grow our cash flows to a sufficient degree to allow us to reinvest and accelerate our growth.”

During the rest of 2008,

· Lexaria’s focus will be first on the low-risk development of the Belmont Lake oil field, where it believes much larger increases in oil production are possible.

· Additional exploration wells will also be drilled on and near the 32,000 acre Palmetto Point area.

During the quarter the Company produced from three oil wells in Mississippi; one oil & gas well in Oklahoma; and about nine gas wells in Mississippi. Production from most of the Mississippi wells has still not reached normalized rates and so variances in current and future production should be expected. Operations are underway to install pumps at the two Belmont Lake oil wells, which when complete should normalize production at average rates that are higher than current rates.

Tyhee Development Corp. (TSX Venture, TDC)

Discovers new gold zone at Goodwin Lake Property

results from first four drill holes returning up to 14.458 gpt gold over 2.7 metres within 6.422 gpt over 6.6 metres

reports the results of the initial four drillholes on the Company’s wholly-owned Goodwin Lake Property.

all four drill holes returned significant gold values, including

6.422 grams of gold per tonne (gpt) over 6.6 metres (m) in diamond drillhole GL003,

14.458 gpt gold over 2.7 m, and 11.435 gpt over 1.5 m in diamond drillhole GL002.

Dr. D.R. Webb, President & CEO reports, “We are very pleased that the first diamond drillholes ever completed on the VAD Zone have returned such robust results. The geology was determined to be prospective, and preliminary work identified substantial zones of gold enrichment that returned very encouraging results. We feel we may have identified a new centre of mineralization that has never before been recognized.”

Tyhee has been consolidating properties in the Yellowknife Gold Belt, and has focused on internally generated prospects with significant gold potential. The results suggest the potential exists for a large tonnage Ormsby-style deposit in that the gold is hosted by a silicified, sulphidized and brecciated mafic body. The VAD Zone is 12 kilometres south of the Company’s development-stage Yellowknife Gold Project.
