About The Company
Aurelio Resource Corporation is a mineral exploration and development company focused on achieving mid-tier producer status. The Company's wholly-owned Hill Copper-Zinc Project contains a number of potentially low-cost, bulk-tonnage, open-pit-mineable deposits close to surface containing significant amounts of copper, zinc, silver and gold. Presently, the in-house calculated resource for the entire Hill project is estimated by the Company to be approximately 800 million pounds of copper at a copper-equivalent grade of 0.65% (copper and zinc combined). Aurelio has also acquired the rights to explore, and an option to purchase, the Gavilanes gold porphyry deposit in Durango, Mexico.
