THE COMPANY
Based in Medellin, Colombia, Tao Minerals Ltd. Is one of the first exploration companies
to explore and capitalize on the enormous potential of gold and precious metals mining
in Colombia. Located within the heart of several prolific mineralized systems that
extend from Panama through to the major producing regions of Peru, Bolivia, Argentina,
Venezuela, Colombia has been largely under explored throughout its recent history.
Long known for its vast untapped and underdeveloped mineral wealth, only recently has
Colombia become a new hotbed of foreign investment and mining and exploration
activity.
Having acquired three mining properties; The Golondrina Property and The El Comillo
Mine in Colombia along with The Whale Mine Property in Nevada; Tao Minerals Ltd. Is
now poised to lead the way to important new discoveries in the under explored gold
fields of Colombia.
GROWTH STRATEGY
Since the recent advent of sweeping political reforms, which include a new and
improved mining code, Tao Minerals Ltd. Is one of the only company’s now exploring
and mining select gold and niche precious metals projects. It is strategically positioned
to focus on a prolific, underexplored gold belt that will provide significant potential for a
rapid return of initial capital investment. Utilizing the latest state-of-the-art mining
technology and readily available skilled labor, the Company’s goal is to create value
through the low cost acquisition and exploration of projects in Colombia that have
significant and sustainable potential for consistent revenue flow and to attain near term
profitability based on current operations. The Company has a thoroughly planned
pipeline of projects that will insure accelerated top and bottom line income over the next
several years.
