NEW YORK, NY--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 29, 2008 -- Aurus Corp (Other OTC:AURC.PK - News) announces that it is presently negotiating with a mining company to exploit part of its reserves in the Roshal territory. The reserves of tailings containing rare earth minerals are enormous and the president submits that it would be preferable to share the burden of manpower, equipment and costs involved in the processing of these reserves.

"By sharing our resources, we can produce minerals twice as fast," says Mr. Dovgan, president. "There is plenty of room for a number of teams to operate on the site."

The negotiation centers around operating the open pit mine as a joint venture or separating the material on a royalty basis.
