QUITO, ECUADOR--(Marketwire - June 25, 2009) - Quri Resources, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: [ QURI ]) entered into a letter of intent to acquire La Conquista mine in January of 2009. Upon receiving positive results from an intensive exploratory campaign that started in April 2009, management informed G&G Mining that it was going to exercise its option to acquire La Conquista gold mine in Pacto, Ecuador.

Results on these samples show 10 to 60 grams per ton. These samples were taken from the exploratory tunnels (galleries up to 30 meters) which follow major veins within La Conquista. The mineralization that occurs in La Conquista corresponds to a hydrothermal and mysothermal system. Intrusive mineralization produced quartz veins bound south to south east with variations of 35 to 70 degrees. There is also presence of sulphurs such as pirite, calcopirite and galen. Samples that were taken from the exterior of the galleries show very low results, which indicate that mineralization concentration is much higher as the vein continues in the exploratory galleries. Better results are expected the deeper we probe within the exploratory tunnels.

Eduardo Muñoz, Vice President of Quri Resources, Inc., stated, "We have secured the land rights on this property with the intention to build a plant; the results we have gotten from the analyzed samples confirm the potential we have seen in La Conquista. We are in discussions with an investment group to finance this acquisition and expect to close within the next 30 days."
