OROMIN CORPORATE UPDATE
Oromin Explorations Ltd.is pleased to report that it has retained Lion’s Gate Geological Consulting to undertake the initial resource estimate on Oromin’s Sabodala Property in the Republic of Sénégal in conjunction with SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc.

In the coming months, SRK will also undertake environmental/social impact program management and preliminary metallurgical testing and will work with Lion’s Gate who will undertake geological modelling on the initial resource estimate.
Oromin is also pleased to report that it has engaged Bendon International Ltd. to provide corporate advisory services with respect to the Sabodala project in order to more effectively carry out its role as operator of the Oromin Joint Venture Group Ltd.
