Further Phase 2 drilling will be required to test the Sweetheart anomaly along strike over its 1.1 km length. Mineralization consists of shear zone hosted, quartz-pyrite veinlets crosscutting cross·cut·ting

Two holes have been completed in the second target, the Meadowhalf anomaly. Several subparallel, mineralized zones were also intersected by drilling here, some of which are reported as follows: -0-

Further Phase 2 drilling is also indicated here to follow the mineralized zones along more than 600 m of strike length. Mineralization consists of a swarm of quartz veins crosscutting sheared sheared

 and altered volcanic rocks.

The drill is now working at the third bulk tonnage target, the Stonehill anomaly, where four holes have been completed. Deep augering at Stonehill has identified a strong mineralized zone grading 0.94 gpt over 130 m width on L1600 E and 0.67 gpt over 80 m width on L1700 E.

A strike length of more than 900 m is indicated and drilling is continuing at Stonehill, before moving to test other bulk tonnage gold targets on the Ianna property. Canarc has an option to earn up to a 65% interest in Ianna from Roraima Gold Corp. by carrying out certain exploration expenditures over a four year period.

Canarc Resource Corp. is a growth-oriented, international gold exploration and mining company with active gold projects in North, Central, and South America. Major shareholders include Barrick Gold (4%) and Echo Bay Mines (10%).
