Minatura Gold (MGOL) Announces Change in Officers and Directors Consistent with MGOL`s Gold Mining Acquisition Strategy

MEDELLIN, Colombia--(Business Wire)--
Minatura Gold (OTCBB:MGOL) announced today that it has put into place new
officers and directors to commence gold mining operations in Colombia in
anticipation of completing its merger with Gold Resource Partners, LLC.

Steve Causey, the former sole officer and director of MGOL, indicated that:
"Once we determined to pursue the acquisition of gold mining entities in
Colombia, we wanted to place a 100% commitment to completing the acquisitions,
which required that I step aside as director in addition to my officer functions
and place the management in the hands of the knowledgeable individuals in
regards to the transaction."

The board of directors of MGOL has nominated Paul Dias and Bill McVey as
directors, and Mr. Causey has resigned his position as the sole director. The
board then elected Juan Perez as President, Paul Dias as Chief Executive
Officer, and Bill McVey as Secretary and Treasurer.

Speaking on behalf of the new management team, Paul Dias, a founder of Gold
Resource Partners, indicated that: "The change in the board of directors and
officers of MGOL is intended to expedite the process of: (i) effectuating our
gold mining operations under MGOL, (ii) attracting additional capital for MGOL
to be primarily utilized in the Colombian operations, and (iii) establishing
management continuity upon completion of the Colombian acquisitions. We are
extremely grateful for the assistance of Mr. Causey in this management
exchange."

Bill McVey, a newly elected officer and director of MGOL and a co-founder of
Gold Resource Partners, and substantial investor in Gold Resource Partners and
its related entities, said that: "I am excited to become part of MGOL at this
early stage and look forward to closing the merger with Gold Resource Partners,
which would bring substantially all the Colombian gold mining operations under
the roof of MGOL."

Juan Perez, the newly elected president of MGOL, a former professor at the
Faculty of Mines in Medellin with over 30 years of mining and exploration in
Colombia, stated, "This is just the beginning of a project that Paul Dias
started over 7 years ago. With over 99,000 acres of property under our
management and production already occurring in the San Pablo Gold Mine located
in the mining district of Segovia-Remedios, which is one of our acquisitions, we
are postured to become a major player in the gold mining operations in
Colombia."
