MONTORO INCREASES STRATEGIC CLAIM HOLDINGS IN ROCKY MOUNTAIN

RARE METAL BELT

November 15

th 2011, Vancouver, B.C, Canada - International Montoro Resources Inc. (“Montoro”)

(TSX-V: IMT) has acquired through staking an additional 4 claims covering over 4,500 acres, due west of its

previously acquired Carbo group in ‘The Rocky Mountain Rare Metal Belt’ northeast of Prince George, British

Columbia.

Montoro now controls over 31,000 acres (12,605.73 ha) consisting of 32 claims in three separate claims blocks

as follows:

Chuchinka -100% interest in 5,604 acres (2,268 ha, 5 claims) contiguous to and adjoining the Wicheeda rare

earth discovery. IMT’s first acquisition is on trend to the northwest and adjoins the Wicheeda property owned

by private company Spectrum Mining Corp. In 2009 Spectrum reported a significant discovery where 11 drill

holes intersected very encouraging mineralization. The best drill intercepts included 48.64 metres grading

3.55% rare earth elements, 72.0 metres of 2.92% REE’s and 144.0 metres of 2.20% REE’s. Electric Metals Inc.

(“EMI”) has an option to earn a 75% interest in these claims through cash payments of $340,000 and 700,000

in shares over three years and exploration totaling $425,000 over the same period. In 2010, EMI completed a

654 line km AeroTEM helicopter-borne electromagnetic plus radiometric survey covering a 29.4 sq. km area

and was successful in mapping several anomalies, the largest of these measuring 4 km by 1 km. In 2011, EMI

tested four grids spanning 2 square km of highly prospective ground, collecting more than 2,000 soil and grab

samples. Geochemical sampling of soils and bedrock, together with ground-based geophysics in the form of

precision magnetometer and scintillometer surveying were applied to identify the most prospective portion of

this and other REE targets in preparation for trenching and drilling. Results are pending. These claims are

surrounded by numerous other companies such as Canadian International Minerals Inc., Bolero Resources Corp.

Alix Resources, Arctic Star Exploration Corp., and Remstar Resources; all of whom are conducting exploration

programs ranging from sampling, trenching to airborne surveys and drilling programs. Canadian International

is completing approx. 3200 metres -16 holes on its Carbo property. Bolero recently completed over 4,000 line

km of a geophysical and radiometric airborne survey and has commenced drilling on the Carbonatite Syndicate,

contiguous to Canadian International Minerals.

Carbo Mtn. - 100% interest in two claims blocks totaling 6,802 acres ( 2,752.69 ha, 7 claims) directly

northwest of Chuchinka. These claims are adjoining Arctic Star Exploration Corp. and Bolero Resources

Corp., both companies having recently completed helicopter airborne surveys surrounding the Carbo Mtn.

property. Arctic Star preliminary results have identified several radiometric anomalies on the Cap property,

which are considered to be high priority with respect to the other surveyed properties in the Carbo area. Further

results are pending from both companies.

Tacheeda Lake -100% interest in 18,743 acres ( 7,585.04 ha, 20 claims) and surrounding an additional claim

block owned by Spectrum Mining Corp. The Spectrum claims were believed to cover a buried carbonatite

(Cominco 1986, Tacheeda Lake). IMT recently completed a 989 line km magnetic and radiometric airborne

geophysical surveys over 3300 ha of this claim block (results pending). The southwest portion of the Tacheeda

(the “Rocky” group of claims) was historically explored by Teck Corporation in 1992/93 to cover a

sedimentary exhalative target based on results of a regional program which outlined Ag, Pb, Zn and Ba

anomalies over a 1.6 km long northwest trend (See IMT news release dated October 4, 2011).

The northeastern portion of the property contains a 231 acre (93.41 ha) claim called “Quite the Little Pit”. B.C.

Rail initially quarried some of the limestone for railway ballast. Diamond Limestone Ltd. mapped and sampled

the area and proposed developing the deposit to supply agricultural limestone. The Tacheeda Lake limestone

prospect lies within a belt of Lower Cambrian limestone and dolomite with minor quartzite and slate. The belt

trends northwest for 41 km and varies up to 5 km in width (B.C. Minfile #093J 019).
