(TSXV: AUL) (OTCQB: AURQF) (the \"Company\" or \"Aurelius\") is pleased to report assay results from the nine-hole surface drilling element of the Phase 1 exploration program, and the final two holes of the Phase 1 underground drilling program, at the Aureus East Gold Project located in Nova Scotia, Canada. The surface drilling was focused on expanding the footprint of the mineralization along strike, width and at depth. The Company specifically targeted the limb structures and has confirmed the presence of high-grade gold in the steeply dipping limbs. All nine surface drill holes intersected gold mineralization, as did the two underground holes.Highlights from new Aureus East surface drillingHole AE-21-008 Intersected4.7m @ 5.3 g/t gold, from 205.5m to 210.2mIncluding 1.55m @ 13.8 g/t gold, from 206.45m to 208.0mHole AE-21-009 Intersected1.6m @ 16.5 g/t gold, from 101.8m to 103.4mHole AE-21-016 Intersected0.6m @ 67.7 g/t gold, from 163.05m to 163.65mAureus East Phase 1 Drilling - Summary of SuccessesConfirmed a significant gold system on the property, tripling the depth and identifying over 30 discreet gold horizons to below 900m;Identified gold in sediment hosting wall rocks around the veins, traditionally viewed as non-mineral bearing, resulting in broader and more extensive gold zones than previously modelled;Identified longer, more extensive limbs than traditionally modelled, which provides a new target area for additional growth;Southern limbs confirmed to be at least 100m long; previously believed to only extend ~10-15m);Width of the gold system is now at least 200m across strike (building volume);Isolated historical hits confirmed and now incorporated into southern leg model with much greater continuity and extension of legs than previously interpreted; and,Drilling has started to intersect gold in under-drilled northern limbs.Hole AE-20-007 encountered 0.5m at 21 g/t gold in the floor below underground drill Pad 2 (April 6, 2021 Press Release) and at least eight high grade zones including;2m @ 132.4 g/t gold32m @ 2.91 g/t gold (new zone @ ...
