About Dorato Resources Inc.
Dorato Resources Inc. is mineral exploration company focused on the highly prospective Northern Peru copper-gold porphyry-epithermal belt. The Company has property rights in two geographic centres:
-- Cordillera del Condor Asset-- one of the most important gold-bearing
districts in northern Peru since pre-Incan times. Dorato, through a
series of option agreements has the right to wholly acquire an extensive
land package of approximately 1,050-square-kilometres, providing the
Company with the largest land position in the Cordillera del Condor.
-- Cajamarca Region Project-- Dorato has acquired rights on the Deborah
property, which is nestled between several important copper-gold
deposits, including Michiquillay and El Galeno.
The Company focuses on grassroots opportunities in strategically important locations where prospectivity can be demonstrated by proximity to existing deposits. The Cordillera del Condor project represents an exceptional land position and an emergent copper-gold district, located close to the border with Ecuador. This remote area of Peru was unexplored until recently, but it is located within kilometres of recent discoveries like Fruta del Norte and the Mirador District (both located just across the border in Ecuador). The Cajamarca region, in contrast, is an established mining district with excellent infrastructure. The Deborah property is a foothold for Dorato into an established area with excellent exploration potential.
On behalf of the board of directors of
DORATO RESOURCES INC.
Anton Drescher, Interim President and CEO
