VANCOUVER, British Columbia – (May 9, 2019) Oroco Resource Corp. (TSX-V: OCO) (“Oroco” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to its news release of May 7, 2019, it has now obtained written confirmation of the decision of the Mexican federal appeal court which will result in the nullification of a 2016 judgement of the Thirteenth Civil Court of Mexico City (the “Judgement”), and the removal of the annotation of the Judgment in the Mexican Mining Registry. The annotation of the Judgment has been impeding the registration of the Santo Tomas concessions to a subsidiary of Altamura Copper Corp. The decision of the federal appeal court is final, and is not subject to appeal.
