Canarc Resource Corp.: Drilling Intersects Multiple High Grade Gold Zones Including 0.93 opt Over 26.4 ft on New Polaris Property, B.C.

:CRCUF) announces multiple high grade gold intercepts from the recently completed Phase 1 in-fill drilling program on the New Polaris property in northwestern British Columbia.

Eleven holes (for a total of 8008 ft or 2441 m of core) were drilled in late 2004 on 100 ft (30 m) spacings to test the C Zones over an initial 500 ft (152 m) strike length by 200 ft (61 m) down dip below the deepest mine level. All eleven drill holes intersected economically significant gold grades and vein widths in two main, sub-parallel, en-echelon, shear-veins, the "Upper C" and "Lower C".

Individual drill intercepts returned assays such as 0.93 opt (31.9 gpt) gold over 26.4 ft (8.05m) in the lower C vein and 0.45 opt (15.3 gpt) over 29.5 ft (9.0 m) in the Upper C vein. The weighted average of all 22 vein intercepts graded 0.42 opt (14.4 gpt) over a 12.4 ft (3.78m) core length. True widths of the veins are estimated to be 85 to 90% of the core lengths. Assay results are shown in the attached table.

These first eleven in-fill drill holes tested the Upper and Lower C zones below the No.600 mine level, (ASL ASL - Algebraic Specification Language  -450 ft) near the No.1 fault, a late brittle (jargon) brittle - Said of software that is functional but easily broken by changes in operating environment or configuration, or by any minor tweak to the software itself.

 in the 1990's by more open spaced drilling over an 800 ft (244 m) strike length and down to 2340 ft (713 m) in vertical depth, where drill hole PC95-40 intersected 0.33 opt (11.3 gpt) gold over a 27.8 ft (8.47 m) core length. The C zones are still wide open at depth and to a certain extent along strike.

A Phase 2 in-fill drilling program is now being planned for 2005 (subject to financing) to continue defining and extending the known C zones at 100 ft intervals over a 1000 foot (305 m) strike length and 1200 feet (366 m) down-dip. It will also target two of the known Y zones over a 500 ft (152 m) length and 1200 feet (366 m) down dip.

The purpose of this drilling program is to outline at least a 550,000 oz resource amenable AMENABLE.

New Polaris was previously estimated (in 1998) by Peter Karelse, P.Geo., to contain a 1.3 million oz gold resource (3.6 million tons grading 0.36 opt gold) based on 202 drill holes. This resource estimate precedes NI 43-101 and is therefore not compliant with it and should not be relied upon. The deposit is still open for expansion.

Bradford Cooke, Canarc's President and C.E.O., stated, "These multiple high grade drill intercepts confirm our long held opinion that New Polaris has the potential to be western Canada's next high grade, underground gold mine. Our re-activation of the New Polaris project coincides not only with higher gold prices but also with the pending development of the large Tulsequah Chief copper-zinc-gold-silver mine and road access of Redcorp Ventures, immediately adjacent to the New Polaris property."
