Del Toro Silver Signs Letter of Intent for Orofino Gold-Silver Project
Sep. 22, 2010 (Marketwire) --

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 09/22/10 -- Del Toro Silver Corp. (OTCBB: DTOR) ("Del Toro" or the "Company") is pleased to announce they have signed a non-binding letter intent to acquire a seventy percent (70%) undivided interest in the Orofino Property (the "Property") in the state of Sonora, Mexico.

The Property consists of 17 concessions totaling 8,291 hectares. In the early 1990's Minera Teck S.A. de C.V. completed over 6,000 meters of reverse circulation drilling producing highlighted results of 3.89 g/t gold over 8 meters true width and 2.54 g/t gold and 71.3 g/tover 7.6 meters; and channel chip samples of highly altered rock reported to have assays of over 50g/t gold. There are currently 10 known mineralized targets and two strong silica, iron-oxide anomalies defined on the Property. Small scale historic production from the Orofino open pit during the mid 1990's produced a reported 60,000 tonnes of ore grading approximately 7 grams per tonne gold.

Mark McLeary, the Company's President states "acquiring Orofino would be a major acquisition for the Company. There is a large amount of data available from previously completed work programs together with multiple drill-ready targets".

The above results are based on information obtained from the NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Orofino Property dated June 5, 2006 prepared by Mitchell Geologic Services Inc. (available at: http://www.sedar.com/GetFile.do?lang=EN&docClass=24&issuerNo=00022389&fileName=/csfsprod/data82/filings/01120771/00000001/p%3A%5Cdwnlds%5CLaQuintaTechRepJune18%5CLaQuintaTechReportJune20.pdf). All of the samples mentioned in this release were taken by previous owners and operators of the Orofino Project. Preparation and analysis of the samples were done at various laboratories. The reader is cautioned that the results mentioned in this news release are only the highlights and do not represent all of the known results. These results should be considered 'historical' in nature and not relied upon without additional due diligence.

The Transaction is subject to the parties respective due diligence investigations and the entry into a Definitive Agreement on customary terms. There is no assurance that the transaction will be completed as planned or at all.
