Cordoba Minerals Secures the Guadalajara Project located within the San
Matias Porphyry District
Vancouver, BC, April 28, 2014: Cordoba Minerals Corp. (TSX-V:CDB) (“Cordoba” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has secured the rights to the Guadalajara Project located in the
Department of Cordoba, Colombia that is interpreted as being highly prospective for porphyry style
mineralization and displays extensive areas of varying porphyry-style alteration, and numerous goldanomalous drainages.
The Guadalajara Project is a 2,000 hectare land package located 13 kilometres to the SSW of BHP
Billiton’s Cerro Matoso open pit nickel mine and within seven kilometers of the Company’s San Matias
Project (see Figure 1). The Guadalajara Project area is largely associated with intrusive rocks and
mafic/intermediate volcanic rocks that display extensive zones of porphyry-style propyllitic alteration and
zones of diatreme breccia development and is therefore highly prospective for porphyry-style
mineralization. To date the major diatreme breccia located is over one kilometre in strike and displays
both volcanic and intrusive clasts with potassic-style alteration (magnetite and secondary biotite)
associated with a matrix of phyllic and propyllitic alteration styles. Stream sediment sampling in this area
has shown numerous drainages with visible gold in pan concentrate samples.
Mario Stifano, CEO of Cordoba, commented: “The Company has been leveraging its geological
knowledge and first mover advantage in this highly prospective and unexplored copper-gold porphyry
district, by locking up what we believe is ground with the most potential for large copper-gold porphyry
discoveries.”
Transaction Terms
Cordoba has paid an initial US$50,000 payment on signing of the agreement with a commitment to spend
US$250,000 in exploration activities within one year. After completion of the exploration expenditures
the Company will be granted the option to acquire a 98% interest in the Guadalajara Project under the
following terms:

A US$350,000 payment 24 months after the signing of the Option Agreement with minimum

in the Project for US$5.00 per ounce of gold and US$0.035 per pound of copper for such metals that are
in the Measured and Indicated category of the NI 43-101 resource calculation. The Optionor will maintain
