Rome Resources Ltd. announces Acquisition of a total of 30,347 Hectares in the Don Luis – Creston – Cananea Porphyry Copper-Molybdenum-Tungsten-Gold Belt, northern Sonora, Mexico

INTRODUCTION

Rome Resources Ltd.’s Don Luis Tungsten-Gold Greisen-Porphyry Property is in central Sonora, Mexico, about 45 kilometers north of Hermosillo (Fig. 1). This property is within a significant belt of north-south trending Tertiary intrusions related to the Cananea – La Caridad – Creston porphyry copper-molybdenum deposits. Specifically, the Don Luis tungsten-gold property is 47.5 kilometers south of Creston Moly’s El Creston molybdenum-copper deposit and 150 kilometers south of the famous Cananea copper. This significant belt of major mineralization is the object of property acquisition by Rome, below. Other News Releases by Rome that are related to property acquisition in this belt are: August 13th 2007, November 15th 2007 and March 28th 2008.

ROME’S PROPERTY TOTALS 30,347 HECTARES IN THE DON LUIS – CRESTON - CANANEA PORPHYRY COPPER - MOLYBDENUM - TUNGSTEN - GOLD BELT

Table 1 and Figure 2 outlines details and location of the 30,347 hectares held by Roma Recursos de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of Rome Resources Ltd., in the Cananea – La Caridad – Creston – Don Luis porphyry copper-molybdenum-tungsten-gold belt. The core Don Luis claims (two concessions totaling 450 ha) is optioned and surrounded by the Grecia (3,100 ha) and Alberto (9,867 ha) applications. The Alberto concession extends north to metamorphic rocks related to the Cerro de Oro gold deposits. The Ontario application (16,930 ha) claims land south of properties held in the vicinity of El Creston molybdenum-copper deposit, which is currently under intensive exploration and development.

CONCLUSIONS

Rome has tied up a large area of more than 30,000 hectares for exploration. The areas held are highly prospective because they are within the Cananea – La Caridad – Creston – Don Luis porphyry copper-molybdenum-tungsten-gold belt of northern Sonora, Mexico. The claimed area also covers ground adjacent to the significant Cerro de Oro gold deposits and the El Creston molybdenum-copper porphyry deposit.

Exploration is on-going in the large areas claimed for the key commodities: copper, molybdenum, tungsten and gold. Management believes that the property has potential for a significant discovery.

Specifically, the Don Luis tungsten-gold area is 47.5 kilometers south of Creston Moly’s El Creston molybdenum-copper deposit and 150 kilometers south of the famous Canadea copper mine. Cerro de Oro Gold deposits occur about halfway between Don Luis and Creston.
