VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/15/13 -- Indico Resources Ltd. ("Indico" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:IDI) is providing this update regarding trading in the Company's securities on the OTCQX. As announced in the Company's news release dated December 21, 2012, Indico was named in an Order of Suspension of Trading (the "Order") dated December 20, 2012 from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Pursuant to the Order, trading in the Company's securities on the OTCQX was suspended on December 20, 2012.

According to the Order, the SEC stated that, "It appears to the SEC that there is a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of Indico Technologies, Inc. (n/k/a Indico Resources Ltd.) because it has not filed any periodic reports since the period ended November 30, 1999." For further information please refer to the SEC website at www.sec.gov.

Upon review of this matter, management determined that in February 1999 the prior management of the Company under its former name, Indico Technologies, Inc., filed a Form 20-F Registration Statement with the SEC but when management decided not to continue with the registration with the SEC they did not file the appropriate forms to withdraw the registration.

With the assistance of the Company's US legal counsel, the Company immediately filed the necessary documentation to accept the revocation of the Company's registration statement in the US; however, Indico has recently been advised the SEC and FINRA (The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) in the United States will not allow the Company to re-list on the OTCQX without the completion of a Form 20-F Registration Statement filing.

Indico is in the process of listing on the Lima Stock Exchange locally known as the "Bolsa de Valores de Lima" or the "BVL". Accordingly, the Company has taken the decision not to have its shares re-listed for trading on the OTCQX. US investors who wish to purchase Indico shares are still able to do so on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX VENTURE:IDI).
