Orovero Announces New Director & Planned Name Change

Orovero Resources Corp. (TSX-V: OVR, Frankfurt: GA0, “Orovero” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has appointed Mr. Andrew James Neale to the Board of Directors. Mr. Neale will be replacing Mr. Sean Hurd who has resigned to pursue other interests. The Board wishes to thank Mr. Hurd for his contributions.

Mr. Neale has also agreed to oversee the comprehensive study (the “Study”) announced by the Company on February 5, 2014. The Study will be an independent report, utilize several consultants, and is intended for completion in May 2014. It will assist in the Company’s efforts to plan, finance, and build the Company’s first Latin American tolling facility. The Company wishes to establish a template for future duplication and believes that the Study can help achieve that.

“I believe Andrew to be the foremost expert in the small mining tolling space. His success in Nicaragua may have created a significant win for his shareholders but it also provided a needed solution to the small mining communities near Bonanza. It was a model of cooperation and worthy of duplication. Our shareholders should be delighted by his appointment and expect great things from us in the future,” commented Mr. Len Clough, CEO of Orovero.

Mr. Neale also commented, “The small mining tolling opportunity has been avoided by the majors, and a market leader has yet to be established. It’s a multi-billion dollar marketplace, and it’s a race to establish a ‘standard’ milling template for rapid deployment. I believe that Orovero is assembling the right team to do just that and I want to be a part of it.”


Name Change

Orovero also wishes to announce a proposed change of the Company’s name to “Standard Tolling Corp.” or such other name as the board of directors determines, subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company believes it better reflects its identity and direction.
