Aurvista Gold Announces Director Resignation
Montreal, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - November 18, 2014) - Aurvista Gold Corporation (TSXV: AVA) ("Aurvista" or the "Company") announces that Mr. Richard Adams has resigned as Chairman of the Board of Directors effective immediately. Mr. Adams has resigned due to the compliance mandates of his current employer. The Company would like to thank Mr. Adams for his guidance and hard work on moving the Douay Gold Project forward and would like to wish him success in all of his future endeavors.
Jean Lafleur, President and CEO states "Rick was a major driving force in the expansion of Aurvista's exploration and resource discovery.

The Company is currently awaiting results from the recent infill drill program, with those results expected in the near term future.
