About Corazon

Corazon is a Canadian-based mineral exploration company with its focus on exploration of the 650-hectare Santo Domingo property in central Nicaragua. The Santo Domingo property is located 125 kilometres northeast of the capital city of Managua, Nicaragua, and 10 kilometres east of B2Gold Corp.'s La Libertad Mine. Corazon's property is entirely surrounded by B2Gold's concession block and has long been recognized as the original gold discovery in Nicaragua.

Until Corazon initiated work last year, no modern exploration work has been completed on the Santo Domingo property.
