Aurora Gold
Corp Completes US$ 5 Million private placement with Alltech Capital Limited.
Zug, Switzerland-(MARKET WIRE) - October 8, 2012
- Aurora Gold Corporation (the "Company", or "Aurora") (OTCQB: ARXG), is a mineral exploration company
focusing on exploration and development in the Tapajos Gold Province, State of Pará, Brazil.
The board of Aurora is pleased to announce
the completion of a private placement for the sale of 135,000,000 shares of the Company at a price of US$0.037 per share, raising
a total of US$5,000,000.
The shares have been placed with Alltech
Capital Limited (Alltech), a company incorporated under the laws of Gibraltar and the funds will provide working capital and enable
further exploration and evaluation of Aurora's Sao Domingo Property.
The Alltech Group is active across a broad
spectrum of industries including Gold, Oil and Gas exploration, Coal (Anthracite) production and the Development of commercial
and residential real estate.
Aurora is preparing to increase the technical
staff in Brazil with the view to concurrently expand the current resource base on Sao Domingo at the Fofoca Resource area, and
to test the lateral and depth extent of the recently discovered Toucano gold occurrence.
The Company has completed a revised exploration
plan and budget for bulk sampling, trenching and drilling.
The board of Aurora feels the Toucano occurrence
could evolve as the Company's flagship target on the Sao Domingo property and previously had a technical team on site evaluating
the geometry and mineralisation. Geochem and geophysics are included in the budget and results will assist the planning of the
drill hole locations.
Mr. Lars Pearl, Aurora's CEO, stated, "This
re-focusing of the Company's direction and work on our Sao Domingo property starts a whole new period of excitement and project
development for Aurora and its shareholders. The union with Alltech and the introduction of a fresh, motivated and highly skilled
technical team will see Aurora achieve the goals that for so long have been expected".
Aurora's common stock is also traded on the Stuttgart
and the Berlin-Bremen Stock Exchanges in Germany under the symbols "(Stuttgart:
