The best assets attract the best people!

Over the past 2 years Oroco Resource OCO.v has done what many at the time deemed impossible.  They have untangled a decades old legal quagmire that has held the Santo Tomas Copper deposit off the capital markets.  Title transfer is imminent and will give the shares another push skyward.  For all the price appreciation so far, Oroco is still undervalued to what it should be once this simple stroke of the pen is complete.

Things are happening at a pace not seen with respect to Santo Tomas in decades.  Oroco has assembled a host of well known and very successful people in their own fields to bring Santo Tomas into the public eye at the time it will be most valued.

The news today of Mr. Mark Stevens joining the technical team is just the latest example of world class Santo Tomas attracting some of the best people able to contribute to its success.  For those familiar with the investment world this is NOT the same as a so so company putting Mr. Big on the board for a little traction selling whatever widget they may produce.  The names that ST has attracted are not in this for simple exposure.. several have come out of a very comfortable retirement to lend their expertise to the project.

The people added in the last few months compliment a management team that has done an exemplary job of leading the company through a tangled legal history that could not have been imagined by most that heard the story.

The latest additions lean heavily toward the technical side recognizing the work ahead will be one of optimizing, presenting and adding to a vast database of information gathered over the last several decades.

Oroco and Santo Tomas will hit the ground running (not your usual venture story).  ST is indeed an advanced project that was previously taken to the Pre feasibility stage!  They have 106 holes (30,000 meters) drilled logged and entered into a resource database showing over a billion tons of ore containing 8 billion pounds of copper metal. Those that have added their names to the project will bring this asset to full value and with it a massive share appreciation for Oroco and its longtime loyal shareholders!
