Lago Dourado Minerals Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:LDM) (the "Company") has discovered a
new mineralized zone from its ongoing reconnaissance-style RC drill campaign at
its flagship, 100%-owned Juruena Project located in Mato Grosso, Brazil. The
discovery of the Mauro Zone is particularly encouraging due to the presence
near-surface of higher grade mineralization within a lower grade halo. The Mauro
Zone is located adjacent to the new major porphyry target identified in the
recently completed IP survey and is proximal to the Uiliam zone, where Hole
JRND046 intercepted 216 metres of 0.55g/t gold (see Figure A). Assay highlights
from this zone include:




--  Hole JRNRC014 intercepted 57 metres of 1.52 g/t gold from surface
    including 1 metre of 60.70 g/t gold; 
    
--  Hole JRNRC010 intercepted 13 metres of 4.00 g/t gold including 2 metres
    of 20.90 g/t gold; 
    
--  Hole JRNRC011 intercepted 22 metres of 1.11g/t gold from surface
    including 1 metre of 16.30g/t gold. 



"The existence of higher grade mineralization close to surface has positive
implications for the resource potential of the Mauro Zone and also adds another
zone to the potential resource base being systematically compiled by our
exploration team. We look forward to receiving additional RC results of the main
porphyry targets as well as to the deeper testing of these targets with the
recommencement of diamond drilling in September," commented Forbes Gemmell, CEO.



High-grade near-surface mineralization at Mauro is predominantly associated with
supergene enrichment but also includes primary mineralization within the host
rock. The mineralized zone at Mauro has been identified over an area of 300
metres by 150 metres with ten of the 11 holes drilled at this zone intersecting
gold mineralization and with three holes ending in mineralization (see Figure
B). The zone remains largely untested and there is excellent exploration
potential given the gold-in-soil anomaly that led to the identification of the
Mauro Zone continues approximately 500 metres to the north and 500 metres to the
south.  


Arrastro Target 

Drill hole JRNRC007 at Arrastro Sul, a new and previously untested zone adjacent
to the south of the Arrastro Hills Porphyry complex, intercepted 65 metres of
0.21g/t gold near-surface and 22 metres of 0.46g/t gold at the bottom of the
hole. The hole was mineralized throughout. Its close proximity to the Arrastro
Hills porphyry system indicates that this large system (5km by 2.5km) is highly
likely to contain multiple mineralized bodies. Arrastro Sul consists of a large
Au-Mo-Cu soil anomaly that corresponds with an ovoid magnetic feature (+600m)
which is intersected by the main Juruena Fault. Mineralization consists of
finely disseminated sulfides within a moderately altered, fine grained mafic
intrusive rock with an intensely altered, fine grained felsic intrusive unit
encountered towards the bottom of the hole where higher gold grades were
reported.  


Five RC holes were drilled at the Arrastro SE porphyry target with only JRNRC004
intercepting gold mineralization (3 metres of 0.75g/t gold and 1 metre of
3.61g/t gold). All holes were drilled prior to the completion of the IP survey
and were drilled outside the zone that demonstrated the strongest chargeability
anomaly. Hole JRNRC004 was the closest hole to the IP anomaly (100m away) and
gold mineralization in the hole was associated with sulfide veinlets, a positive
indicator that the IP anomaly lies on mineralization. Follow up RC holes have
been designed to test the four main IP anomalies at Arrastro Hills and will be
completed in the coming weeks.
