Revelo Commences Exploration at its Loro Gold-Silver Project in Northern Chile

Revelo Resources Corp. (“Revelo” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE:RVL) is pleased to announce that Phase 1 exploration has commenced at the Loro gold-silver project located in northern Chile. Initial exploration activities will focus on a large soil sampling grid combined with magnetics surveying, in order to help define future trench and drill targets. This initial work is expected to be completed in around 3 months.
The Loro project is currently subject to an option, sale and royalty agreement with a subsidiary of Hochschild Mining PLC (“Hochschild”). Under the agreement, Revelo will operate Phases 1 and 2 of the exploration program. Hochschild can earn a 100% interest in the Loro project over a maximum of five (5) years in exchange for a series of in-ground investments and/or drilling commitments totalling US$13 million and/or 30,000 metres, and a series of cash payments to Revelo totalling US$5.3 million. Further payments totalling US$15 million are due once the option has been exercised by Hochschild. Revelo will be the beneficiary of a 1% NSR royalty on any future production from the property. (See Company’s News Releases dated June 6, 2017 and September 05, 2017).
