December 2, 2005, Vancouver, BC - Amarc Resources Ltd. (TSX Venture: AHR; OTCBB: AXREF) reports on the progress of Amarc's recent drilling programs on early-stage properties in British Columbia.

The Chica and Chona properties are located approximately 80 kilometres north-northwest of Fort St. James in an area underlain by Jurassic Takla Group and Chuchi Group volcanic and sedimentary rocks intruded by Triassic to Cretaceous intrusive rocks. During the 2005 exploration season, Amarc performed detailed geophysical and geochemical surveys on the property, and selected drill targets, focussing on anomalies characteristic of porphyry gold-copper deposits. The Company completed 960 metres of drilling in nine holes in October 2005. No significant results were obtained by the drilling.
Initial drilling of the Natlan gold target in the Hazelton area also did not provide results that warrant further work.

The Max property is located 65 kilometres northeast of Kamloops and hosts a precious metals rich volcanogenic massive sulphide occurrence containing barite, silver and base metals in an area underlain by rocks of the Paleozoic Eagle Bay Assemblage. The Eagle Bay Assemblage comprises metamorphosed volcanic and sedimentary rocks and is known to host the nearby Samatosum and Rea precious and base metals rich deposits.

Amarc drilled holes MX5-1 to MX5-13 in January and February 2005 on the Max property with encouraging results. The work was followed up in September and October 2005 by 990 metres of drilling in three holes, MX5-14 to MX5-16, to test for the faulted extension to the Max massive sulphide horizon. The results of all of the holes are presented in the appended table. As shown, the recent drill holes did not encounter significant mineralization. The Company plans to terminate its option agreement on the Max property.

Amarc's Corporate Co-ordinator, David Yeager, P.Geo., a qualified person, has reviewed this release.
