Tao Minerals Ltd. (OTCBB: TAON) Provides Update on Corporate Activities



MEDELLIN, COLOMBIA - April 30, 2010 (Investorideas.com Mining stocks Newswire) - Tao Minerals Ltd. (Tao) (OTC.BB:TAON) is pleased to provide an update of its operations and corporate activities. In the past six months Tao has undergone a complete reorganization. This was done to provide more attractive financing options as the company moves forward focused on development and production at its El Colmillo Gold project. Market conditions for financing have improved and specifically recent successes by companies such as Ventana Gold Corp. have improved the financing prospects for other mining companies in Colombia. Tao will be providing an update of its financing activities in the near future.
The International Finance Corporation (IFC), an investment branch of the World Bank has identified Colombia as a primary target for mining investment because of the potential for substantial economic impact from the mining sector. The Colombian government has been recognized as one of the best pro-business reformers globally in recent years by the World Bank and with the country gaining economic stability, new legislation provides foreign investors with a high degree of legal protection and security.


Tao believes that the security situation at its El Colmillo gold project in Colombia has continually improved during the time frame under which the company has been reorganized. As previously announced on April 6, 2009 Tao was working with federal and local authorities to improve security in the area and specifically the El Colmillo Gold Mine. Local mayors and townspeople who were employed at the mine site have exerted considerable political influence on the Colombian government to clean up the situation with the guerrillas in the area and are encouraged by the response from all authorities involved. Significant progress has been made and subject to a third party security assessment Tao is poised to resume operations and move the project to the production stage. The project will provide local employment and plans are moving ahead to upgrade the roads to this remote area to allow federal security forces access to the mine site greatly improving response times should the company experience any further security issues.



Tao Minerals Ltd. is a mining exploration and development company formed to acquire, develop, and exploit natural resource properties focusing primarily on the rich, yet highly underdeveloped gold deposits of Colombia doing so in a socially and environmentally responsible manner.
