EMO Emerita Resources Corp

Emerita Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:EMO) (the "Company" or "Emerita") has
received notice from the Extremadura Regional authorities that tenements it had
applied for in the Las Morras Project area in the Extremadura Region have been
granted and final publication in the regional and national gazette is expected
in the next few weeks. Once notice appears in the gazette the Company will have
three years in which to work the claims, prior to applying for renewal. 


The Company was originally attracted to the area on reports of significant,
discrete accumulations of gold nuggets being found by local prospectors in
recent years (To view Figure 1, please visit the following link:
http://media3.marketwire.com/docs/928256fig1.pdf). 


Emerita has been exploring in the area since early 2013 and during the past year
has undertaken a number of field exploration programs (see press releases dated
February 7, 2013, April 8, 2013, August 29, 2013, and December 19, 2013). During
the 2013 program the Company's geologists demonstrated that gold anomalies
extended beyond the limits of the existing claim boundary and became aware of
other locations in the area where numerous gold nuggets have been identified. As
a result, the Company submitted applications for the additional blocks totalling
38,030 hectares. This contiguous block of Exploration Licenses (Permiso de
Investigacion P.I) represents a six fold increase in the land holding for
Emerita from 6,816 hectares to 44,846 hectares (Table 1).


The underlying geology of the Las Morras project comprises Pre-Cambrian
metasedimentary rocks that are structurally juxtaposed against younger
Palaeozoic metasedimentary rocks. Gold anomalies appear to be associated with
shear zones within the Precambrian rocks and Company geologists are exploring
the Las Morras area for primary gold deposits similar to those that exist
elsewhere in Spain within similar geological and structural settings.


Emerita's President and CEO, Joaquin Merino (P.Geo.), commenting on the
approvals said, "The increased land position at Las Morras reflects the outcome
of initial field programs that have demonstrated that the gold anomalies are
much more extensive than originally understood. The area is unexplored in the
context of modern, systematic exploration and we are very encouraged by the
results to date. There are several newly identified areas within the land
package that host an abundance of nuggets and fine gold in soil that will be
followed up with systematic geochemical surveys. Drill permits are being applied
for on the original claims."
