OROCO CLOSES FIRST TRANCHE OF PRIVATE PLACEMENT FINANCING
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR U.S. DISSEMINATION
Vancouver, B.C. – November 6, 2025 – Oroco Resource Corp. (TSX-V: OCO, OTCQB: ORRCF) is
pleased to announce the closing of an initial tranche of its non-brokered private placement announced
September 24, 2025, realizing gross proceeds of US$1,530,999 through the sale of 7,654,995 units at the
price of US$0.20 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a “Share”) and
one-half of one Share Purchase Warrant (a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase
one Share of the Company for US$0.30 for a period of 24 months from closing.
This portion of the financing is subscribed for by Mexico-based investors, including new independent
director Faysal Rodriguez (subscribing for 5 million units) and two Mexico-based strategic investors.
The proceeds will be used to advance the Santo Tomás Project towards its planned Pre-Feasibility Study
and for general corporate purposes. The closing is carried out pursuant to prospectus exemptions of
applicable securities law and is subject to final acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange. The Shares, and
any shares issued on the exercise of Warrants, are subject to a hold period expiring on March 6, 2026.
Craig Dalziel, Oroco’s Chairman, commented: “We appreciate the considerable impact Faysal Rodriguez
continues to have on Oroco. Most recently, his contribution is most evident through his substantial
personal financial participation along with members of his professional network from Mexico’s mining and
construction sectors. Their support reflects a growing recognition within Mexico’s business community of
the importance of the Santo Tomás Project and the development opportunities it represents for northern
Sinaloa. We see this as further validation of the Company’s plans to continue the advancement of the
Santo Tomas Project toward Pre-Feasibility and beyond.”
The participation of Mr. Rodriguez (a newly appointed director) in the non-brokered private placement is
considered a related-party transaction pursuant to NI 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in
Special Transactions. The Company is relying on the exemptions from the formal valuation requirements
contained in section 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 and the minority shareholder approval requirements contained in
section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as the fair market value of the “related party” participation in the Offering
does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
ABOUT OROCO
The Company holds a net 85.5% interest in those central concessions that comprise 1,173 hectares “the
Core Concessions” of The Santo Tomas Project, located in northwestern Mexico. The Company also holds
an 80% interest in an additional 7,861 hectares of mineral concessions surrounding and adjacent to the Core
Concessions (for a total Project area of 9,034 hectares, or 22,324 acres). The Project is situated within the
Santo Tomas District, which extends up to the Jinchuan Group’s Bahuerachi Project, approximately 14 km
to the northeast. The Project hosts significant copper porphyry mineralization initially defined by prior
exploration spanning the period from 1968 to 1994. During that time, the Project area was tested by over
100 diamond and reverse circulation drill holes, totaling approximately 30,000 meters. Commencing in
2021, Oroco conducted a drill program (Phase 1) at Santo Tomas, with a resulting total of 48,481 meters
drilled in 76 diamond drill holes.
The drilling and subsequent resource estimates and engineering studies led to a revised MRE and an updated
PEA being published and filed in August of 2024, which studies are available at the Company’s website
www.orocoresourcecorp.com and by reviewing the Company profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
The Santo Tomas Project is located within 170 km of the Pacific deep-water port at Topolobampo and is
serviced via highway and proximal rail (and parallel corridors of trunk grid power lines and natural gas)
through the city of Los Mochis to the northern city of Choix. The property is reached, in part, by a 32 km
access road originally built to service Goldcorp’s El Sauzal Mine in Chihuahua State.
