	Fri Jan 15, 2010 Amarc Closes $5.5 Million Financing
	January 15, 2010 Vancouver, BC - Amarc Resources Ltd. ("Amarc") (TSX Venture: AHR; OTCBB: AXREF) announces that, further to its news releases of December 18 and 23, 2009, it has completed the $5.5 million private placement financing and issued 11 million common shares at a price of $0.50 per share (of which 4.8 million common shares are flow-through shares). The common shares are subject to a four-month hold period under applicable Canadian securities legislation. Late in 2009 Amarc discovered the Newton bulk tonnage-style gold system in south-central British Columbia ("BC"). Newton may represent a new gold deposit type for BC within a previously unrecognized district. Planning and permitting for a 2010 drill campaign along with surface and airborne exploration activities is currently underway. Amarc also holds, through staking and option agreement, an area of approximately 217 square kilometres along the Sitlika Belt in north-central British Columbia. Exploration in 2007-2008 identified a number of promising zinc and/or copper dominated volcanogenic massive sulphide targets. Exploration activities in 2009, including diamond drilling, tested three main areas the Bodine-Warren, Huge South and Olsen prospects. Following assessment of the results, Amarc has taken the decision to suspend exploration at and relinquish its land holdings in the Sitlika Belt, in order to focus its efforts on the important new discovery at Newton. Amarc Resources Ltd. is a Vancouver-based exploration and development company affiliated with the Hunter Dickinson group, a private company associated with a series of successful mineral exploration and development projects in BC -- including Golden Bear, Mt. Milligan, Kemess, Gibraltar and Prosperity.
