Agnico Eagle Commences Drill Program on Aura Silver's Greyhound Property, NU

Aura Silver Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AUU) ("Aura Silver" or the "Company") is
pleased to announce that Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE:AEM) (TSX:AEM)
("Agnico Eagle") has commenced an initial 1,000 metre drill program on Aura
Silver's 100% owned Greyhound Property in Nunavut as part of the previously
announced earn-in agreement. The agreement allows Agnico Eagle the right to earn
up to a 70% interest in the Greyhound Property if certain conditions are met
(see Press Release #14-02 of June 10, 2014).


The drill program will target three distinct areas around Greyhound's Aura Lake
claim group. These areas include:




1.  South and south east Aura Lake where multiple one ounce gold samples and
    silver samples of up to 5,380 g/t were found by Aura Silver during soil
    sampling and the examination of sulphide-rich boulders; 
2.  North Aura Lake where base-metal samples assaying up to 9.2% copper and
    18.5% zinc were found during previous prospecting surveys by the
    Company's geologists; and 
3.  The Dingo prospect to the North East where prior discoveries include
    copper mineralization in a 200 by 300m gossan zone and in the same
    general area a kilometre long quartz vein which assayed up to 9.1 g/t
    gold and 96.6 g/t silver.  



During this initial drill program approximately 300 metres will be drilled for
each area. All targets are located nearby the access road that connects Agnico
Eagle's Meadowbank Mine to the Baker Lake community providing excellent access
to develop the potential of the property. 


Robert Boaz, CEO of Aura Silver stated "this is an exciting time for Aura Silver
as we hope to realize the value of the work we have done to date and which our
partner has evaluated by analyzing both the geochemical and geophysical
anomalies in all three target areas. This is a highly prospective area of
Nunavut and we are happy that Agnico Eagle has joined us in our exploration
endeavors."
