VANCOUVER, Canada, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Oroco Resource Corp. (TSX-V: OCO; OTC: ORRCF) (“Oroco” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce it has signed a cooperation agreement with Sembrando Vida (“Sowing Life”), a flagship environmental and social program of the Government of Mexico.

This joint effort is intended to strengthen environmental conservation and community development in the municipality of Choix, Sinaloa, where Oroco’s Santo Tomás Project is located.  Oroco and Sembrando Vida will work together to restore degraded land, promote sustainable agriculture, and contribute to regional ecological regeneration.

Sembrando Vida is a federally funded program that supports smallholder farmers through agroforestry systems, reforestation, and rural development.  With a focus on restoring ecosystems and reducing rural poverty, the program has helped thousands of communities across Mexico establish sustainable livelihoods while improving soil and forest health.

“This partnership reflects our long-term commitment to sustainable development and environmental integrity within our local communities,” said Craig Dalziel, Chairman of Oroco. “We’re proud to support a program that not only aligns with our ESG values but also strengthens our ties with the communities that surround Santo Tomás, as well as providing further evidence of our confidence in the future of the Santo Tomás Project.  Together with Sembrando Vida, we can build an approach to local development that is as regenerative as it is responsible.”

Through this collaboration, Oroco will provide material, logistical, and advisory support for local initiatives, including native tree planting, land recovery, and training for program participants. The agreement underscores growing alignment between public-sector environmental priorities and Oroco’s operational philosophy.

In addition to our existing community engagement efforts, this initiative reflects Oroco’s broader ESG strategy as the Company undertakes its next phase of technical studies at Santo Tomás.

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 Tomaá 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 Tomás 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 Tomás, 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 Tomás 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.
