Exhibit 99.1
Amarc, Freeport-McMoRan Mineral Properties Canada Inc. Continue
Earn-in
At JOY Copper-Gold District Into 2022
December 15, 2021, Vancouver, BC – Amarc Resources
Ltd. (“Amarc” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:
AHR; OTCQB: AXREF) is pleased to announce the continuation of its
earn-in with Freeport-McMoRan Mineral Properties Canada Inc.
(“Freeport”) into a second drilling season at the
Company’s JOY Cu-Au District, (the “JOY”) located
in the Toodoggone region of the Golden Horseshoe trend,
north-central British Columbia (“BC”). In November,
Amarc announced that Freeport invested $5.94 million in
2021.
“We are excited at the opportunity to continue to advance JOY
in collaboration with Freeport into 2022,”
said Amarc
President & CEO Dr. Diane Nicolson. “The combined porphyry copper-gold
exploration and discovery capabilities of our respective teams is
now focused on integrating results as they are received from this
year’s field work into existing data sets. This work
will define next
season’s comprehensive deposit delineation and district
exploration programs and related
budgets.”
In addition to Amarc’s collaboration with Freeport, Nicolson
acknowledged the important contributions made by the Tsay Keh Dene,
Kwadacha, Takla and Tahltan Nations over the course of an ambitious
2021 season, as well as by local government personnel and on-site
contractors. She said the active participation of Indigenous groups
and local stakeholders in Amarc’s exploration program was
fully supported by Freeport, which recognizes the important role of
community engagement and involvement.
Results from Amarc’s 2021 exploration activities will be
released as they become available.
Chief Darryl McCook of the Kwadacha Nation commented: “We
continue to be encouraged by the collaborative approach Amarc has
taken with respect to working with First Nations on exploration
activities at JOY. We will continue to work with Amarc to achieve
its responsible mineral exploration goals at JOY, while developing
a pathway for the sharing of future economic opportunities and
benefits.”
In June 2021, Amarc announced it had entered into a
four-way
Exploration Agreement with Takla Nation, Tsay Keh Dene Nation and
Kwadacha Nation to: guide engagement and information sharing
between the parties; establish a pathway for negotiating future
agreements to support more advanced stages of development; and,
deliver opportunities for employment, contracting and participation
in environmental monitoring.
About Amarc Resources Ltd.
Amarc
is a mineral exploration and development company with an
experienced and successful management team focused on developing a
new generation of long-life, high-value porphyry copper-gold mines
in BC. By combining high-demand projects with dynamic management,
Amarc has created a solid platform to create value from its
exploration and development-stage assets.
Amarc
is advancing its 100%-owned IKE, DUKE and JOY porphyry
copper±gold districts located in different prolific porphyry
districts in southern, central and northern BC, respectively. Each
district represents significant potential for the development of
multiple and important-scale, porphyry copper±gold deposits.
Importantly each of the three districts is located in proximity to
industrial infrastructure – including power, highways and
rail.
Amarc
is associated with HDI, a diversified, global mining company with a
30-year history of porphyry discovery and development success.
Previous and current HDI projects include some of BC’s and
the world’s most important porphyry deposits – such as
Pebble, Mount Milligan, Southern Star, Kemess South, Kemess North,
Gibraltar, Prosperity, Xietongmen, Newtongmen, Florence, Casino,
Sisson, Maggie, IKE and Pine. From its head office in Vancouver,
Canada, HDI applies its unique strengths and capabilities to
acquire, develop, operate and monetize mineral
projects.
Amarc
works closely with local governments, Indigenous groups and other
stakeholders in order to advance its mineral projects responsibly,
and in a manner that contributes to sustainable community and
economic development. We pursue early and meaningful engagement to
ensure our mineral exploration and development activities are well
coordinated and broadly supported, address local priorities and
concerns, and optimize opportunities for collaboration. In
particular, we seek to establish mutually beneficial partnerships
with Indigenous groups within whose traditional territories our
projects are located, through the provision of jobs, training
programs, contract opportunities, capacity funding agreements and
sponsorship of community events. All Amarc work programs are
carefully planned to achieve high levels of environmental and
social performance.
