DIOS Exploration: $150 000 Private Placement


MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - July 31, 2013) - DIOS EXPLORATION (TSX VENTURE:DOS) undertakes a non-brokered private placement with accredited investors. Officers & directors may participate in this placement which consists of a maximum of 1,250,000 flow-through common shares for gross proceeds of $150,000. Share price is $0.12.

Proceeds of this placement will be used by DIOS for exploration of road accessible 33 CARATS gold porphyry project, James Bay. There will be a hold period of four months and one day on Common Shares issued. This private placement is subject to regulatory approval. DIOS has some 39 million shares outstanding, no debt and a working capital of $917,351 as of June 30 (see quarterly financials on sedar or company's website).

DIOS reported in fall 2012 in situ significant rock values for gold-silver-copper-bismuth, an association typical of gold porphyry deposits on 33 CARATS. Mineralization within tonalite (disseminated, not vein-hosted) and metal associations suggest potential for a low-grade bulk tonnage porphyry gold deposit, such as in Malartic, Abitibi, Quebec.

Fall 2012 results greater than 0,45 grams gold per tonne
