[{"type":"text","content":"Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 18, 2021) - Aurelius Minerals Inc. (TSXV: AUL) (OTCQB: AURQF) (the \"Company\" or \"Aurelius\") is pleased to continue to report high-grade results from the Aureus East Project in Nova Scotia, Canada. The Company is drilling at the Aureus East project to define a new gold mineral resource and continue expanding upon the successes of the Phase 1 and initial Phase 2 program results. The holes reported today come from the ongoing surface drilling program, focusing on expanding mineralization along strike to the East, and at depth, as we continue to identify previously overlooked gold horizons and an expanding limb system. The Company is currently drilling with two rigs at the Aureus East Project and has surpassed the minimum 10,000 metre (\"m\") Phase 2 program. Year to date, 18 surface holes and 8 underground holes have been completed for a total of 10,900m, (7,570m from surface and 3,330m from underground), and holes are currently in progress both at the surface and underground drills. There are currently over 1,800 samples in the lab.

Utilizing the Aurelius approach, we continue to expand the mineralization and refine the geological model, while drilling previously underexplored areas, as we consistently encounter high grade intersections within a broadly mineralized and substantial gold system. We are very pleased with these results and remain on track to produce a current mineral resource in Q1 2022.\"The surface drilling component of our Phase 2 exploration is targeting...
