Aurelio Completes Mineral Property Acquisition, Appoints New Board of Directors and Announces Financing
Wednesday, August 23rd 2006
Aurelio Resource Corporation (“Aurelio”) (OTCBB: AULO) is pleased to announce that it has completed, pursuant to an agreement entered into with Aurelio Resources Inc. (“ARI”) and its shareholders dated April 27, 2006, the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of ARI, a privately-owned Colorado corporation engaged in mineral development, expansion and exploration. As a result of this purchase transaction, ARI is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aurelio.
ARI owned a 100% interest in 13 mining claims on its Hill Copper property located in Arizona, USA. In addition, the company has an option to earn a 100% interest in the Gavilanes gold project, which consists of 3 gold mining claims/concessions in Durango, Mexico. As a result of this acquisition, ARC’s agenda includes increasing the already existing drill indicated resource on the Hill Copper Property and exploration and development activities beyond what ARI has achieved on both the Hill Copper and Gavilanes projects previously.
The companies new board of directors now consists of Dr. Frederik Warnaars, Ph.D., Steve Doppler, B.A. Geo., B.A. Econ., and David C. Jonson, M.Sc. Geo., Dr. Warnaars has been appointed President.
In consideration of the acquisition of ARI, 10,000,000 common shares were issued by Aurelio to ARI’s former shareholders. In addition, former directors of Aurelio have returned certain restricted shares to treasury for cancellation. Upon closing of the said transaction the total issued and outstanding shares of Aurelio are 28,436,500.
In addition, the Company is pleased to announce a Private Placement of 4,000,000 shares at a price of $0.40 per share resulting in total proceeds for the company of US$1,600,000. These funds will be used to advance and further develop the Hill Copper Project and begin drilling at the Gavilanes Gold Project.
Hill Copper Project
The Hill Copper Project consists of thirteen unpatented lode-mining claims covering approximately 260 acres. The unpatented mining claims are identified as MAN 1 through MAN 6, which are contiguous, and MAN 7 through MAN 13, which are also contiguous. Two hundred and eighty (280) drill holes were completed by several major companies on the property in the past. A drilled indicated resource of approximately 52.3 million tons grading 0.65% Cu has been outlined totaling over 680 million lbs of copper, as estimated by current management. In addition, 53 historic mining shafts have been identified, indicating the significant amount of past mining activity that has taken place on the property.
The company has planned an exploration and development program at the Hill Copper Project to further define, upgrade and expand the already existing drill indicated resource. In addition to multiple twin holes and infill drilling to upgrade the known resource, Aurelio has identified several high priority exploration targets which are anticipated to expand the resource beyond the current levels. The primary target for the program is mainly copper; however, by-products of gold, zinc and silver exist within the property as well.
Gavilanes Gold Project
Aurelio’s new wholly-owned subsidiary, ARI, owned 98% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Minera Milenium S.A. de C.V., a company incorporated under the laws of Mexico. Minera Milenium S.A. de C.V. owns an option to earn a 100% undivided interest in certain mining claims/concessions situated in the Tamazula District, Durango, Mexico (the “Gavilanes Property”).
The Gavilanes Gold Project consists of mining claims/concessions covering approximately 1000 hectares within the Mexican gold belt. To maintain the option in good standing, the Company is required to make payments totalling $500,000 to Minera Holmex S.A. de C.V. over the next 5 years.
The company has planned an exploration program and has already defined 10 diamond drill targets at the Gavilanes Gold Project. Aurelio will be targeting primarily gold, with by-products of silver.
A portion of the purposed private placement will be used in order to carry out the planned work program and to maintain the option in good standing.
