Serbia Update - Approval of Two Additional Exploration Licenses
Mundoro is pleased to announce the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Stara Planina Resources EAD ("SPR"), has received approval from the Serbian government for two additional mineral exploration licenses in the Republic of Serbia ("Serbia"): (i) Glozana, and (ii) Manastirica. The Company now owns 100% of five mineral exploration licenses. The two new license areas are:
The two mineral exploration licenses are within the well-known Timok Magmatic Complex ("TMC"), which hosts significant Au-Cu porphyry deposits (Bor, Madjenpek, etc) and related Cu-Au epithermal deposits. TMC is a segment of the Tethyan Metallogenic Belt, a host to world class porphyry and epithermal Cu-Au deposits from Eastern Europe to Southeast Asia, which resulted from the convergence and collision of the Indian, Arabian and African plates with Eurasia. Within the Timok province the most economically significant segments comprise the Upper Cretaceous subduction-related magmatic rocks. The bulk of Mundoro's project areas contain Jurassic sediments and late Cretaceous volcanics, sediments and breccias of andesitic composition intruded by dykes, sills and stocks, of dioritic, quartz-dioritic and granodioritic composition, similar to areas containing major mines and ore deposits in the area.
On April 5, 2012 Mundoro announced the approval of three mineral exploration licenses in Serbia:
Mundoro has planned a systematic exploration approach which started with careful data compilation. The assembly of topography, satellite imagery, historic airborne magnetics, ground geophysics, and geology data is underway. Mundoro will conduct stream sediment sampling. Anomalous areas will be followed up by rock chip sampling, mapping and soil sampling. Soil anomalies will be followed up by trenching, detailed mapping and geophysics (ground magnetics and IP) where required. Known mineral occurrences within the permit will be mapped, rock-sampled and assessed using applicable exploration models. Special attention will be paid to structural controls of the known mineralisation.
Mundoro has an experienced Balkan-based team in place, and based upon the first phase exploration results, Mundoro will follow up any generated targets with exploration drilling.
Mexico Update
During the quarter, Mundoro continued with the reconnaissance exploration program in Mexico. Mundoro's Durango-based team has begun to prepare compilation and analysis of the results from each property and will conduct more intensive studies on the most promising prospects after which the Company will provide the next phase of exploration program to be conducted. To date, the following exploration work has been completed for the Rodeo, Mapimi, Jimenez, Camargo, Cuencame and Hidalgo concessions:
Mundoro's CEO & President, Teo Dechev added: "The Company continues to evaluate advanced and development stage mineral resource properties for acquisition or joint venture while at the same time advancing the exploration properties in Mexico and South Eastern Europe. Mundoro expects to continue to maintain a 5% interest in MMI and thereby an interest in the Maoling Gold Project until further value can be realized."
