December 12, 2005

VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 12, 2005--Lalo Ventures Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:LAL) is pleased to announce that it has added to its portfolio two more Iron Oxide Copper Gold ("IOCG") projects in Baja Mexico. The two mineral concessions enclose ground underlain by Late Cretaceous intrusions belonging to the same suite as those which host the iron oxide-hosted mineralization at the Anglo-American/Cardero Resources San Fernando prospect.

El Mesquite concession, an area of 39,333 hectares, lies contiguous to the northwest of Anglo-American/Cardero's large land package in the San Fernando district. Granitoid rocks of the San Fernando suite are exposed on the eastern side of El Mesquite concession. The western side of the concession is underlain by a thin cover of sedimentary rocks of uppermost Cretaceous age. It is probable that the San Fernando intrusions extend westward beneath this younger cover.

La Maya II concession covers a 30,000 hectare area 70 km southwest of the port of Ensenada. The concession is underlain by Cretaceous intrusions which exhibit the same style of alteration as that observed at San Fernando. The alteration zone covered by the concession is extensive and lies 5-10 km from tidewater.

"Given the recent positive developments of Anglo and Cardero, it is important for Lalo to move forward aggressively on our IOCG ground in Baja," says Lalo CEO Ari Sussman. "We are excited to be strategically placed in this new belt as the hunt ensues for economic IOCG deposits."

Lalo is in the final stages of formulating an extensive work program on both of these concessions along with existing concessions to take place in the first quarter of 2006. Details will be released in due course.

Lalo also announces it has secured the exclusive right and option from Baminex S.A. de C.V. to acquire a 100% interest in a package of 12 mining exploration concessions covering 160,000 hectares (395,000 acres) and several concession applications all located in the state of Baja California. Lalo has 4 years to earn a 100% interest in each concession, with staged expenditures totaling $150,000 per concession over the 4 years. Under the option agreement US$30,000 was paid on execution, a further US$95,000 is due when the concessions applied for are granted and a total of 200,000 of the Company?s shares are issuable, with 50,000 shares issued every 6 months over a two year period. A net smelter royalty (NSR) of 2% will be payable on each of the 12 existing concessions retained. The Company has the right to buy out the NSR on the basis of US$1,000,000 for each percentage, the first percent paid in half in cash and half in shares and the last percent paid in shares at the option of Baminex. The properties include the former San Juan Mine located in the Bahia de los Angeles area and a suite of at least six Iron-Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) prospects covering 147,000 hectares located along the continuation of the iron/copper/gold belt currently being explored by the Anglogold/Cardero Resources Corp joint venture. Baminex S.A. de C.V. holds title to, has formally applied for or is in the process of applying for the concessions which are the subject of this transaction. Additionally, Lalo is currently acquiring further ground in the area.

Gotta watch these insidious Canucks. Wonder where the smelter will be located.
