Orovero Resources Appoints Carlos Fernandez Mazzi and Carlos Mirabal to Advisory Board.
Orovero Resources Corp. (formerly Golden Alliance Resources Corp.) (TSX-V: OVR, Frankfurt: GA0, "Orovero" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that Mr. Carlos Fernandez Mazzi and Mr. Carlos Mirabal have joined the Advisory Board effective immediately. In addition to his duties as member of the board of directors, Mr. Fernandez will provide assistance in project development and community relations. Mr. Mirabal has had a long career in the mining business and has been instrumental in the creation of two significant mining concerns from inception to maturity. In addition to extensive operational experience, Mr. Mirabal is an experienced metallurgist.
"Rio Tabaconas is a very interesting project. Locally, gold grades and the thickness of the mineralized bodies at Cerro Tablon are significant and near surface, which indicates that some areas could be placed into small scale production, in a reasonable time frame, after permitting and the necessary work to define economic mineralization is completed. In addition, more exploration work is needed to test the extensive IP chargeability anomalies discovered at Cerro Las Minas that could eventually lead to the definition of one or more bulk mineable deposits. I look forward to assisting where I can," stated Mr. Carlos Mirabal.
"We welcome both Carlos and Carlos to the Advisory Board. In addition to the announcements made last week, we now have over 130 years of diversified mining experience on our Advisory Board. With their assistance, we will continue to pursue ways to advance our flagship property while assessing business opportunities focussed on revenue generation," stated Orovero's President, Len Clough.
