Tuesday November 20, 8:30 am ET
BELLINGHAM, WA--(MARKET WIRE)--Nov 20, 2007 -- Geocom Resources Inc. (OTC BB:GOCME.OB - News) ("Geocom" or "The Company") is pleased to announce that the Company has entered into a comprehensive agreement with Goldmark Minerals Ltd. ("Goldmark"), a TSX Venture listed mineral exploration firm. Geocom has agreed to sell its equity interest in the Iliamna Project in Alaska, subject to a right to acquire any diluted interest of BHP-Billiton, plus a 49% interest in its Marcelita-Santa Rosa project near Copiapo, Chile.

Goldmark has acquired these properties for a total consideration of $200,000 US payable once the title opinion has been received. John Hiner, president of Geocom Resources, has agreed to be the project manager and consultant for the projects in Alaska and Chile.
Management is pleased to develop this relationship as an important step to accelerating its exploration efforts, and as a means of streamlining its move to a Toronto Venture Exchange listing. The agreement meets the Company's philosophy of developing strategic partnerships for future exploration and financing.
The agreement with Goldmark allows for the exploration and development to drill-ready stage of the Marcelita-Santa Rosa project, which has languished as the Company has concentrated on its high-priority south Chile program.
Additionally, the agreement gives Geocom a strategic relationship with a TSX Venture listed firm and provides funding without shareholder dilution as the Company positions itself to make application to the Toronto Venture Exchange for its own listing. It also provides immediate cash to proceed with the south Chile reconnaissance and project evaluation, Geocom's joint venture with Kinross.
The Company also granted a first right of refusal, at Geocom's election, to Goldmark to fund 50% of the ongoing south Chile program, which provides the ability to fund exploration and development without undue shareholder dilution.
