The results from the drilling from the South Posse and North Posse deposits have been encouraging enough to expand the drilling program from the previously announced 11 holes to 17 drill holes. Further drilling will target possible new zones of mineralization and fill in greater than 50m gaps in the known mineralization.

In addition to the drilling program described above, Amarillo is completing 5 trenches into the prominent gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly Abnormality or deviation.

See software conflict and anomaly detection.  that extends to the north of the Posse deposits. This soil anomaly follows the structural trend of the gold mineralization at Posse.

To update those new to the Company, Amarillo is a new explorer in Brazil staffed by industry professionals familiar with discovery and Brazil. The intent is to grow the Company by acquisition and discovery. As part of this strategy, Amarillo purchased the Mara Rosa Project from Metallica Resources

Metallica Resources (TSX: MR and NYSE: MRB) is a Canadian based mineral and gold mining company.
 Inc., for $US450, 000. The transaction was completed in November 2005. There has been a large body of work done within the project area on the Posse Gold Deposit. After discovery and definition work by BHP/Billiton the deposit was sold to Western Mining. Western Mining conducted open pit mining operation on this deposit ceasing operations in 1995. Metallica, who purchased the property from Western Mining, hired independent consultant Pedro Gusman of Santiago Chile, in 1996 to determine the remaining resource at the Posse Deposits. This consultant's estimates must be considered an historic resource, as it was done prior to the implementation of the 43-101 National Instrument. He estimated the gold content down to 300m below surface to be 6.3million tonnes of 1.81g/t measured, 4.9million tonnes @1.67 g/t indicated and 1.42 million tones @ 1.94 g/t inferred, using a 1 g/t cut-off cut-off Anesthesiology The point at which elongation of the carbon chain of the 1-alkanol family of anesthetics results in a precipitous drop in the anesthetic potential of these agents–eg, at > 12 carbons in length, there is little anesthetic activity,  using Krieging methods and industry standard guidelines guidelines,

 of the time. Amarillo considers this resource estimate as still relevant there has been no changes since the estimate was made, except that gold prices have moved to higher levels. The Company has commissioned a 43-101 compliant estimate of the resource, the results of which are awaited.

Details about the historic work are available in our news releases dated 15-Feb-2005 and in the 43-101 report prepared by Terrence Hennesey of Micon International Inc., and filed on January 15 2004.

The exploration potential on 42,000 Ha Mara Rosa property is also held in high regard by the Company as it encompasses large portions of the eastern and central greenstone belts Greenstone belts are zones of variably metamorphosed mafic to ultramafic volcanic sequences with associated sedimentary rocks that occur within Archaean and Proterozoic cratons between granite and gneiss bodies. , which are the hosts to the gold mineralization, harbours numerous galimpero workings and untested gold geochemical anomalies.
