Amarillo Gold Corp. is focused on the acquisition, discovery, and definition of gold resources in Brazil. The Company's principal projects are the Mara Rosa Project in the state of Goias, and the Lavras do Sul Project in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The Posse Deposit at Mara Rosa contains 1,174,900 ounces of gold measured and indicated from 20.85 MT at 1.75 g/t Au, and 156,400 ounces of gold inferred from 3.63 MT at 1.38 g/t Au (0.5 g/t cut-off grade) (NI 43-101 compliant resource as independently determined by Australian Exploration Field Services Pty.

The Posse Deposit was successfully mined by Western Mining Company (WMC) during the 1990s (mined areas are excluded from the above-stated resource figures), and is located in an area of excellent infrastructure approximately 35 km NE of Yamana's Chapada open pit Cu-Au operation, 105 km NE of Serra Grande's underground Au mine, 105 km NNW of Anglo American's Ni laterite project (in construction), 95 km NW of Votarintim's Niquelandia Ni laterite mine, and some 60 km NE of Yamana's Pilar Au project (in Feasibility).
The Lavras do Sul Project is an advanced exploration stage property (190 sq km) comprised of more than 19 prospects centered on historic gold workings, with encouraging gold mineralization discovered and defined by more than 25,000 metres of drilling. The initial resource estimate at the Butia prospect reported 215,000 ounces of gold indicated from 6.4 MT at 1.05 g/t Au, and 308,000 ounces of gold inferred from 12.9 MT at 0.74 g/t Au (0.3 g/t cut-off grade) (NI 43-101 compliant resource as independently determined by Atticus Consulting 2010).
