LevelStock.com: Alto Group Holdings Addresses Mining Opportunity in Mexico



Apr 22, 2010 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- Braintree,Ma. LevelStock.com is pleased to announce to all of its members and investors information on Alto Group Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: ALTO). The Company recently released news as follows:

Alto Group Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: ALTO) ("Alto Group" or the "Company") announces today that it is addressing mining opportunity in Mexico

Mexico is the World's premier silver exploration and mining country for several reasons. It is historically and presently the world's number one silver producer with a historic production record of over 10 billion ounces of silver and current annual production closing in on 100 million ounces a year. Most deposits are high grade and amenable to low-cost underground and surface mining.

Opportunities abound in the belt. A mantel of alluvial cover that remains virtually untested by modern geophysical and geochemical prospecting techniques covers extensive parts of the belt. Modern ore deposit models indicate that many districts are larger and more complex than previously thought, opening exploration potential to depth or laterally from existing head frames. Many major districts, until recently covered by a bewildering patchwork of claims, have been consolidated, opening the potential for applying district scale exploration concepts for the first time in nearly one hundred years. There are even opportunities to assume control of producing (but under explored) mines where exploration can yield immediate mill feed to existing infrastructure.

Politically, Mexico is the most stable country in Latin America, with favorable tax structures and a strong government commitment to natural resource development. Mexico radically overhauled a nationalistic mining law structure in 1990-1992, for the express purpose of attracting foreign mining investment and this has been very successful. This overhaul was accompanied by privatization of virtually all of the Mexican governmental mining holdings and an active retreat from competition with the private sector in mining exploration and development.

Mexico has demonstrated a strong commitment to increasing transparency in all aspects of government and the regulation of the mining industry is arguably the most successful of these. Foreign companies now compete with Mexican companies on an equal basis.

Culturally, Mexicans are friendly towards mining at all levels. This means mining explorationists and developers can expect to be welcomed when they enter an area in stark contrast to their reception in many other parts of the world.

The Mexican mining community is well trained, both at the professional and skilled laborer levels, and fully in tune with the latest mining technologies. Specialized and normal mining equipment is readily available with good technical support.

Mexico has strong environmental laws and a commitment to uphold them, but effective obstructionist environmental organizations are few. This means that mining outfits, who follow the Mexican laws and internationally accepted environmental practices, can expect to advance their projects without undue interference.

Despite this, Mexico remains under-explored. Major discoveries have been made over the last 20 years by application of modern geological and geophysical concepts and methods with every expectation that exploration will continue to reveal important new deposits.

The exploration down-turn of the last 6 years has seen a return to more reasonable expectations on the part of property holders as well as the release of large numbers of expired claims. This has allowed consolidation of land positions in many important districts making acquisitions of district-scale exploration plays economically feasible.

Put all of the above in the context of Mexico's stable political climate, a 500 year mining history, rational environmental policies, excellent infrastructure, and a firm government commitment to natural resources development and it is hard to see why silver and gold exploration dollars would be invested anywhere else in the world.
