[{"type":"text","content":"Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 6, 2021) - Aurelius Minerals Inc. (TSXV: AUL) (the \"Company\" or \"Aurelius\") is pleased to report additional assay results from underground drilling at its Aureus East Gold Project located in Nova Scotia, Canada. The reported holes were drilled from the second underground drill pad and encountered multiple high-grade gold zones from the start of the holes down to a depth of 472 metres (m) in hole AE-20-007 (see Figure 1).Highlights from Aureus East drill programHole AE-20-007 Intersected0.5m @ 21.0 g/t gold, 0.5m to 1mSample is from rock directly below the floor of the underground drift32m @ 2.91 g/t gold, from 245m to 277mIncluding 0.6m @ 55.8 g/t gold, from 245 to 245.6m; andincluding 0.8m @ 22.6 g/t gold, from 252m to 252.8m; andIncluding 1.0m @ 21.8 g/t gold, from 263.2 to 264.2m0.8m @ 18.6 g/t gold, from 299.9m to 300.7m12.0m @ 2.78 g/t gold, from 317.8m to 329.8mIncluding 4m @ 6.39 g/t gold, from 325m to 329m; andIncluding 1m @ 13.8g/t gold, from 328m to 329m2.0m @ 132.4 g/t gold, from 335m to 337m; andIncluding 1.0m @ 264.0 g/t gold, from 335m to 336m1.2m @ 13.3 g/t gold, from 377.5m to 378.7m; andIncluding 0.7m @ 21.2 g/t gold, from 377.5m to 378.2m15.8m @1.48 g/t gold, from 403.2m to 419m; and1m @ 10.7 g/t gold, from 414m to 415m1m @ 11.7 g/t gold, from 471.7m to 472.7mMark N.J. Ashcroft, P.Eng, President and CEO of Aurelius stated, \"We continue to have excellent success at Aureus East intersecting multiple discreet mineral horizons within broadly mineralized zones. Hole AE-20-007 is our most successful hole to date, but notably, all of our Phase 1 drill holes, to date, have intersected gold mineralization. That's a tremendous achievement considering what limited information we started with, and doing it all in the middle of a travel restricting pandemic. The opportunities we continue to see at this project are significant, especially when you consider we have identified high grade material in the floor of the development drift where Pad 2 was set up, reinforcing the importance of drilling in advancing this project forward on our path to production.\"Holes AE-20-007 and AE-20-006 along with previously reported AE-20-004/005 are part of a series of near vertical holes designed to intersect and define the geometry of the stacked and folded gold zones at Aureus East (see Figure...
