TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – Aug 6, 2014) – Soltoro Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:SOL) has been advised by Gold Reserve Inc. (TSX VENTURE:GRZ)(GDRZF) that it will not continue with its option to earn-in to Soltoro's La Tortuga project. Gold Reserve cited poor market conditions and a need to preserve capital as the main reasons for terminating the option. Gold Reserve was awaiting a drill permit in order to carry out a preliminary drill program.

Andrew Thomson, President and C.E.O. of Soltoro Ltd. stated: "We are sorry to see Gold Reserve drop the option on La Tortuga without having carried out a drill program. La Tortuga has excellent potential to host a significant copper/gold deposit with numerous mineralized target areas yet to be drill tested. The Company will seek a new partner to advance the project."
