RAYTEC GRANTED POTASH PERMITS / STARTS SEISMIC
November 6, 2008, Vancouver, BC - Raytec Metals Corp.

(the "Company") (TSX.V - RAY) announces the receipt of its remaining exploration permits issued from the government of Saskatchewan for the Company"s KP455, KP466, KP467 and KP468 potash permits, located in central Saskatchewan.


The KP455, KP466, KP467, and KP468 potash exploration permits grant the Company the right to explore approximately 89,643 acres of prospective potash ground contiguous with the Company"s KP441 potash permit.

Collectively, the potash permits are known as the "Spar Property" and grant the Company the right to explore, a total of approximately 145,079 acres of contiguous prospective potash ground.

The Spar Property contains an NI43-101 indicated resource of 12.49 million tonnes of K2O and an inferred resource of 12.24 million tonnes of K2O and is adjacent to permits currently held by BHP Billiton Diamonds Inc.

The Company is pleased to announce that government permitting for the proposed 2-D seismic program has been completed.

Crews have been mobilized to the Spar Property and the 2-D seismic work will be ongoing throughout November.

Initial seismic results are expected to be received by the second week of December.

Successful completion of this work will lead to the design and commencement of a phase one drill program focused on expanding the current potash resource.

The Company"s application for potash permit KP500, which covered a non-contiguous area of 8,640 acres southeast of the Spar Property, was denied by the Saskatchewan government.
