Orofino Gold Corp. - Highest Gold Values in the Area-253 grams/ton

Design Parameters for production of 100,000 ounces per year

HONG KONG, May 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - Orofino Gold Corp. (PINK OTC: ORFG) ("Orofino Gold" or the "Company") has several Gold development properties in Colombia, a current hot spot of gold production in the world markets.

With the frequent occurrence of the very high grade gold vein systems in the central area of its Senderos de Oro project and with several small scale grinding and amalgamation mills in-place Orofino is planning to design a central processing and recovery facility that is modular in design (each additional module added creates 10,000 ounces of annual production) and will be capable of processing enough high grade material to produce up to 120,000 ounces of gold annually while the Company continues to explore further the Primary Porphyry Target which is the bulk minable gold/copper porphyry systems.

The company has reviewed several engineering and design firms with gold production facilities design and operational experience and is currently creating a short list prior to engaging the design team. Orofino intends to continue the relationships currently enjoyed with all government agencies, the local communities, as well as current production teams and will involve these groups in all major processing and production planning decisions.
