Gemini Explorations, Inc Working to Expand La Tapada Land Holdings

FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA -- (Marketwire) -- 05/16/12 -- Gemini Explorations Inc. ('Gemini') (PINKSHEETS: GMXS) is pleased to announce that it has commenced negotiations with adjacent concession owners to expand its land holdings at the La Tapada gold project. Minera Primecap Geologic Services ("MPGS") is working with Gemini to assist in these negotiations. MPGS is headquartered in Medellin, Colombia providing complete geological and consulting services to domestic and international mineral exploration companies. The La Tapada gold project is a producing gold mine in Colombia's El Bagre-Zargoza mining district in the Department of Antioquia. Existing registrations for La Tapada at the Colombian Mining Department show average grades of 15-20 g/tonne of gold and bonanza grades of up to 250 g/tonne being produced using antiquated artisanal mining techniques. MPGS geologists have identified additional zones within the concession mineralized with gold, silver and other base metals.

Gemini Explorations is focused on the development of two highly prospective gold projects in Colombia including a potential 3 million ounce deposit in the Los Andes Sotomayor Gold Belt with a potential asset value of approximately $4 billion at today's gold prices. Capitalizing on smart acquisitions, modern production techniques, deep industry expertise and the strong bull market for gold, Gemini Explorations is working quickly to achieve production, growth and value for shareholders. Gemini Explorations has assembled a portfolio of significant land holdings in Colombia's richly mineralized but under-developed gold districts including the La Planada and La Tapada gold properties.
