Medoro proposes to consolidate its issued and outstanding common shares on a
three for one basis

TORONTO, June 9 /CNW/ - As stated in the Management Information Circular dated May 10, 2010, Medoro Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:MRS) is announcing its proposal to consolidate its issued and outstanding common shares on a three-for-one basis, subject to the approval of the TSXV and shareholders of the Corporation which will be sought at its meeting to be held at 4:30 p.m. (Toronto time) on Wednesday, June 9, 2010. As at June 8, 2010, the number of issued and outstanding common shares was 414,108,087.

Management of the Corporation believes that the large number of common shares that are currently listed on the TSX Venture Exchange hinders the ability of the Corporation to raise the money it requires to fund its business activities, particularly as the Corporation looks for new business acquisitions and the funding of the exploration and development of its properties in Colombia. Management believes that a smaller number of shares trading at a higher price would make the Corporation more attractive to potential investors, and would further enhance the value of the common shares held by current shareholders. Management accordingly wishes to reduce the number of common shares outstanding on a three-for-one basis so that the number of issued and outstanding common shares will be approximately 138,036,029. No fractional common shares will be issued to shareholders as a result of the consolidation. The number of common shares issued to shareholders as a result of the consolidation shall be rounded up to the nearest whole common share in the event that a shareholder would otherwise be entitled to a fractional common share representing 0.5 or more of a common share as a result of the consolidation, and shall be rounded down to the nearest whole common share in the event that a shareholder would otherwise be entitled to a fractional common share representing less than 0.5 of a common share as a result of the consolidation. No compensation will be issued to shareholders as a result of rounding down.

The Corporation's name will not be changed in conjunction with the consolidation.
