Oromonte announces filing of 1 ST Quarter Financial Statements and Results

Nelson, British Columbia, Canada, June 13, 2008: Oromonte Resources Inc. ("Oromonte" or the “Company”) (ORR:TSX-V; OF6:FRA) announces the filing of its financial statements and results for the three month period ended March 31, 2008. Oromonte’s exploration activities and performance continued to be affected by the Ecuador government’s initiation of radical change to the country’s constitution, taxation, environmental and mining laws. However, the Company has begun to implement a pro-active development strategy outside Ecuador.

The Company recorded a loss of $86,570 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The Company’s working capital was $1,608,523 at March 31, 2008. The Company has sufficient working capital to meet all of its foreseeable obligations based on its plan for the next twelve months.

The financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 reflect the costs of property acquisition, exploration expenses and administrative costs for managing the Company’s properties and associated activities. Operating and general expenses were $133,751. Expenses for the comparative period of 2007 were $204,875. The primary reasons for the change in expenses are decreased exploratory activity for the period. Management and consulting fees increased, as did legal costs and stock-based compensation, the latter due to vesting (21,137 options in the current period and 10,430 options in the comparative period). Capitalized expenditures for the quarter were $111,401 compared to $183,507 for the first quarter in 2007. The decrease was due to a reduction of activities in Ecuador. Oromonte has subsequently curtailed all its exploration activities in Ecuador until there is more clarity and stability in the mining industry.

The Company’s interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) for the three months ended March 31, 2008 are available at www.sedar.com. All material information and subsequent events concerning the affairs of Oromonte has been disclosed to the public through news releases and filed on SEDAR.
