An overallotment of 10% has been taken up on the private placement financing, which includes an additional 1 million common shares at a price of $0.50 per share.

Company insiders will participate in this transaction that is subject to TSX Venture Exchange acceptance.
Operating as an exploration and development company, Amarc Resources has made an important new gold discovery in south-central British Columbia.
