Coro Announces Agreement to Purchase Claims Adjacent to its Marimaca Copper
Project, Chile
January 22, 2018 – Vancouver, B.C. - Coro Mining Corp. (“Coro” or the “Company”) (TSX Symbol: COP) is very
pleased to announce that it has entered into a promise to purchase and sell agreement with a local Chilean
company to acquire a 379 hectare package of mining claims (the “SM Claims”) immediately adjoining its
Marimaca property to the north and south. The Marimaca project is located 22km east of the port of
Mejillones in the II Region of Chile (Figure 1).
Coro will acquire the claims for a total cash consideration of US$6,000,000, comprising a payment on signature
of US$100,000 (paid) and the balance of US$5,900,000 payable on completion of due diligence and certain
other transfers of title. In addition, the claims will be subject to a 2% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”).
“We are very pleased to have executed this agreement which represents a major step in our development of
the Marimaca district,” commented Coro President and CEO, Luis Tondo. “The claims being acquired (Figure 2),
immediately adjoin the northern boundary of Marimaca and consolidate the property position in this highly
prospective area. They also cover a large area of ground to the south of Marimaca where Coro has identified
attractive drill targets. We plan to start drilling the SM claims as soon as the transaction is complete.
In addition, Coro has staked a new mining claim adjoining Marimaca to the south west and connecting with the
large 100% owned Ivan claim block which we acquired in 2017. Finally, we have staked a large block of
exploration concessions covering much of the Marimaca district.
We look forward to completing the acquisition of the SM Claims in due course so that we can pursue an
aggressive drilling campaign on our consolidated property which we are confident will demonstrate the full
potential of Marimaca.”

About Coro Mining Corp.:

stage of development, which are well located with respect to infrastructure and water, have low permitting
risk, and have the potential to achieve a short and cost effective timeline to production. The Company’s
preference is for open pit heap leach copper projects, where minimizing capital investment and creating
profitability are priorities and, where the likely capital cost is financeable relative to the Company’s market
capitalization. The Company's assets include the Marimaca development project; its 65% interest in the SCM
Berta company, which owns the Berta mine and Nora plant; and the Llancahue prospect.
