Coro Mining Provides an Update on the Infill Drilling Campaign at its Marimaca

Project, Chile

October 30, 2017, Vancouver, Canada- Coro Mining Corp, (“Coro or the Company”) (TSX:COP) is pleased to

announce that it has advanced according to plan on the infill drilling campaign at its Marimaca project, located

22km east of the port of Mejillones in the II Region of Chile, (Fig. 1).

This program, which is nearing completion, comprises approximately 10,700m metres of reverse circulation

drilling for a total of 57 holes using two drill rigs. In addition, a program of approximately 900m metres of

diamond drilling in 5 drill holes has commenced in order to provide geotechnical information and a further 4

drill holes for 820m have been completed and which will provide samples for metallurgical column test work in

support of the Marimaca Feasibility Study on this property, which is underway as announced at the start of the

third quarter.

“The results of infill and geotechnical drilling at Marimaca will inform the definitive feasibility study, which we

anticipate completing in the first quarter of 2018. This will allow us to increase the confidence in our resource

to produce both a reserve statement and a mine plan,” commented CEO Luis Tondo. “The feasibility study will

serve the dual purpose of allowing Coro its 75% earn-in to the Marimaca property as well as allowing us to fast

track Marimaca to production as per our strategic plan. The first batches of assay results are expected to be

released shortly.”
