Aurelian Board Member Steps Down

TORONTO, ON – Aurelian Resources Inc. (TSX:ARU) today announced that Dr. Keith Barron has stepped down from the company’s Board of Directors. Aurelian previously announced the addition of two new board members effective March 31, 2008.“As many shareholders are aware, Aurelian began as the dream of Patrick Anderson and myself in December, 2000, when we decided to mount an expedition to the hinterland of Ecuador in search of exploration opportunities,” says Dr. Barron. “At the time, the gold price was around $250/oz, we had limited personal resources, and many of our friends and family were rightly sceptical that two geologists would ever be successful, even more so of my personal belief that gold would eventually climb back to historic highs, and Ecuador would yield a world-class deposit. I admit we were sceptical too, but we were determined. Gradually, as the Aurelian story unfolded we were able to secure some excellent exploration ground, as well as an even more excellent exploration staff; both have been key to success. Many good explorationists have cycled through our project since inception and all have left significant contributions. Our knowledge base has grown tremendously.”Dr. Barron concluded, “Now we are at a juncture where the mining engineers, geostatisticians, hydrologists, and an army of technicians take over to transform the Fruta del Norte deposit into a producing world-class gold-silver mine and make Ecuadorian history. It is normal in the course of evolution of a successful junior company for exploration to eventually yield the torch to development; most juniors never get the chance and I feel privileged and blessed. I will be most keenly following the progress of Aurelian and wish to thank the staff in Canada and Ecuador, my fellow directors, the analysts who have followed our progress, and most of all the shareholders who have supported the company and shared in its success.”“We’re very appreciative of Keith’s contributions to Aurelian. As a co-founder of the company, he recognized the tremendous potential of southeastern Ecuador, the area that hosts our FDN gold-silver deposit, and has continued to contribute as a board member," says Bill Fisher, Chairman. "We wish him all the best in his future endeavours."
