Dorato Resources Inc. ("Dorato" or the "Company") (TSX
VENTURE:DRI)(OTCQX:DRIFF)(FRANKFURT:DO5) announces receipt, from Minera
Afrodita, of additional surface geochemical results for the Cobrecon targets
within the Condor Copper-Gold District project in northern Peru. Soil and rock
sample results from both Cobrecon and Cobrecon Sur porphyry targets outline two
large, parallel porphyry systems. Drilling at Cobrecon is underway with two
holes in progress. Dorato has a right to acquire 100% of Minera Afrodita.


Cobrecon Drilling & Soil Anomaly

Six drillholes are planned from three platforms located about 300 metres apart,
centred on anomalous soil samples and porphyry copper mineralization mapped at
surface. Two drill rigs are currently drilling from the southern two platforms
(Figure 1) adjacent to where wide-spaced surface rock samples located over 360
metres laterally returned between 0.11% and 0.23% copper. The third platform is
located 300 metres farther north, where rock samples returned up to 0.63% copper
and 0.48 g/t gold. 


With receipt of the additional soil sample results, the soil anomaly now extends
farther southeast and is open in that direction. Additional soil samples are
currently being collected, and an additional drill platform will be constructed
600 metres to the southeast of hole CBC-01. There has been detailed (1:2500)
mapping and further rock sampling in the area of drilling over the past weeks.
This mapping, in conjunction with the new drill core, has led to a
reinterpretation of the geology. The mineralization is now known to be hosted by
tectonic breccia of yet to be determined extents, comprising coarse fragments of
fine diorite, dacite porphyry, and possibly siliceous sediments. There is a
strong northwest structural control to the mineralization.

Copper-in-soil ranges from 2 ppm to 6267 ppm (0.62%) - highly anomalous by
comparison with normal levels of copper in soil. Molybdenum, considered immobile
and a reliable indicator of subsurface mineralization, ranges from less than 1
ppm to 43 ppm. 


Cobrecon Sur Porphyry Target 

The copper and molybdenum soil sample results at Cobrecon Sur define the extents
of disseminated copper mineralization mapped in the creeks. The
copper-molybdenum anomaly is large, measuring 1 km wide and 3 km long (Figure
2). Wide-spaced, reconnaissance-level rock sampling has returned grades up to
0.35% copper. 


Recently completed airborne geophysics at Cobrecon Sur defines a broad magnetic
low coincident with a circular EM anomaly that probably outlines
quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration around the mineralization. The soil and
geophysics anomalies are coincident with a large area of quartz and sulphide
stockwork veining with chalcopyrite (copper) mineralization hosted by variably
sheared diorite and coarse granite, the latter in which the mineralization is
more disseminated in nature. The granite currently appears to be the best host
for mineralization, with rock samples grading up to 0.35% copper, and the area
of mineralized outcrops will be the initial drill target.

Cordillera Del Condor Background

The Cordillera del Condor has been one of the most important gold-bearing areas
in Ecuador and Peru since pre-Incan times. On the Ecuador side of the border,
historical high-grade, small scale gold production is reported to have exceeded
100,000 oz per year. 


Modern exploration on the Ecuadorian side of the border has resulted in the
discovery of multiple, significant and world-class gold and base metal-bearing
districts, such as Kinross Gold Corp's Fruta del Norte Gold deposit with an
inferred resource of 13.6 million contained ounces of gold averaging 7.23 g/t
gold), the Mirador Copper-Gold porphyry deposit (recently sold by Corriente
Resources Inc.) with measured & indicated resources of 438 million tonnes at
0.61% copper, 0.19 g/t gold plus inferred resources 235 million tonnes at 0.52%
copper, 0.17 g/t gold, and the Mirador Norte Copper-Gold porphyry deposit
(indicated 171 million tonnes at 0.51% copper, 0.09 g/t gold; inferred 46
million tonnes at 0.51% copper, 0.07 g/t gold), and Dynasty Metals & Mining
Inc's Jerusalem Gold deposit in the Chinapintza district with measured &
indicated resources of 0.58 million contained ounces gold at 12.4 g/t gold plus
an additional 0.71 million ounces inferred contained ounces averaging 11.5 g/t
gold). The technical information with respect to the above deposits was obtained
through the respective companies' public disclosure documents available on
SEDAR.


Qualified Person

John Drobe, P.Geo., Dorato's Vice President of Exploration and a qualified
person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed the scientific and
technical information that forms the basis for this news release. Mr. Drobe is
not independent of the Company as he is an officer and a shareholder.


The results of the geophysical survey have been reviewed by Brian Williams,
consulting geophysicist, who checked data quality during data acquisition and
assists with ongoing interpretation. 


The geochemical results were reviewed by Tansy O'Connor-Parsons, Senior
Geochemist. Minera Afrodita on-site personnel rigorously collect and track
samples which are then security sealed and shipped to ACME Laboratories, Lima,
Peru for assay. ACME's quality system complies with the requirements for the
international standards ISO 9001:2000 and ISO 17025:1999. Analytical accuracy
and precision are monitored by the analysis of reagent blanks, reference
material and replicate samples. Quality control is further assured by the use of
international and in-house standards. Blind certified reference material is
inserted at regular intervals into the sample sequence by field personnel in
order to independently assess analytical accuracy. In addition, representative
blind duplicate samples are routinely forwarded to ACME and an ISO-compliant
third party laboratory for additional quality control.

applicable Canadian and US securities legislation. All statements, other than
statements of historical fact, included herein including, without limitation,
statements regarding the anticipated content, commencement and cost of
exploration programs, anticipated exploration program results, the discovery and
delineation of potential mineral deposits/resources/reserves, business and
financing plans and business trends, are forward-looking statements. Although
the Company believes that such statements are reasonable, it can give no
assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Forward-looking
statements are typically identified by words such as: believe, expect,
anticipate, intend, estimate, postulate and similar expressions, or are those,
which, by their nature, refer to future events. The Company cautions investors
that any forward-looking statements by the Company are not guarantees of future
results or performance, and that actual results may differ materially from those
in forward looking statements as a result of various factors, including, but not
limited to, variations in the nature, quality and quantity of any mineral
deposits that may be located, variations in the market price of any mineral
products the Company may produce or plan to produce, the Company's inability to
obtain any necessary permits, consents or authorizations required for its
activities, the Company's inability to produce minerals from its properties
successfully or profitably, to continue its projected growth, to raise the

and uncertainties disclosed in the Company's Amended 2010 Annual Information
Form filed with certain securities commissions in Canada and the Company's 2010
Annual Report on Form 40-F filed with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"), and other information released by the Company and filed
with the appropriate regulatory agencies. All of the Company's Canadian public

Cautionary Note Regarding References to Resources and Reserves

National Instrument 43 101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI
43-101") is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators which
establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific
and technical information concerning mineral projects. Unless otherwise
indicated, all resource estimates contained in or incorporated by reference in
this press release have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the
guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum
(the "CIM") Standards on Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the
CIM Council on November 14, 2004 (the "CIM Standards") as they may be amended
from time to time by the CIM.


United States shareholders are cautioned that the requirements and terminology
of NI 43-101 and the CIM Standards differ significantly from the requirements
and terminology of the SEC set forth in the SEC's Industry Guide 7 ("SEC
Industry Guide 7"). Accordingly, the Company's future disclosures regarding
mineralization may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by
companies subject to SEC Industry Guide 7. Without limiting the foregoing, while
the terms "mineral resources", "inferred mineral resources", "indicated mineral
resources" and "measured mineral resources" are recognized and required by NI
43-101 and the CIM Standards, they are not recognized by the SEC and are not
permitted to be used in documents filed with the SEC by companies subject to SEC
Industry Guide 7. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have
demonstrated economic viability, and US investors are cautioned not to assume
that all or any part of a mineral resource will ever be converted into reserves.
Further, inferred resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their
existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. It cannot
be assumed that all or any part of the inferred resources will ever be upgraded
to a higher resource category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred
mineral resources may not form the basis of a feasibility study or
prefeasibility study, except in rare cases. The SEC normally only permits
issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute SEC Industry Guide 7
compliant "reserves" as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit
amounts. The term "contained ounces" is not permitted under the rules of SEC
Industry Guide 7. In addition, the NI 43-101 and CIM Standards definition of a
"reserve" differs from the definition in SEC Industry Guide 7. In SEC Industry
Guide 7, a mineral reserve is defined as a part of a mineral deposit which could
be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time the mineral
reserve determination is made, and a "final" or "bankable" feasibility study is
required to report reserves, the three-year historical price is used in any
reserve or cash flow analysis of designated reserves and the primary
environmental analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate governmental
authority.
