Aztec Copper Inc. Responds to News Release Issued by "Oroco Resource Corp" on April 10th 2019

EDMONTON, April 12, 2019 /CNW/ - The above referenced News Release suggests that an affiliate of Oroco has acquired an option to purchase 40,000,000 shares of Aztec Copper purportedly held by Fierce Investments Ltd. As this statement may well give rise to confusion in the public mind, we have determined to issue the following clarifying information.

On April 1st, 2011, Glen D. Harder, of Harder & Company, a British Columbia law firm, counsel to Fierce Investments Ltd., forwarded correspondence to Aztec wherein he stated: "In addition, in a similar act of good faith, Fierce voluntarily cancelled its 40,000,000 Aztec shares and no longer has an equity position or management influence in Aztec."

On April 4^th, 2011, the Board of Directors of Aztec, acting in accordance with Aztec's Bylaws, adopted a Resolution removing Fierce from Aztec's Shareholder Registry and returning the cancelled 40,000,000 shares to Aztec's treasury.

On August 16, 2011, by the hand of its founder, David Hermiston, Fierce sent a letter to all Aztec Shareholders, confirming that it had surrendered 40,000,000 shares and no longer had any equity position or management influence in Aztec. 

The Board of Directors of Aztec trust that the above will clarify any misunderstanding pertaining to this matter.
