ORFG is searching for properties in historically rich gold bearing zones within Mexico and Colombia. Orofino is planning to develop proven reserves on major gold targets. ORFG plans is to begin drilling its first gold prospect in the first quarter of 2010.

 

Gold prices increased for the 3rd time in 4 sessions following the belief that the Federal Reserve will hold lending rates in the U.S. low for an extended period, eroding the value of the dollar. In 2009, gold rose by 24% as the central bank kept rates near 0% to spur the economy, which led to the drop of the dollar by 4.2%.

 

Orofino has a Spanish speaking team that has a background in geological leadership with over 30 years in Mexico and 28 in Colombia. The company completed due diligence on various prospective properties and categorized 3 in the good to high priority.

 

For February delivery, gold futures grew $7.40, or 0.7%, to $1,136.80 per ounce on the Comex division on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It is possible that the metal may top $1,200 in the first half of the year on the demand for a hedge against inflation.
