Raymond, Alberta - American Creek Resources Ltd. (“American Creek”) (TSX Venture: AMK) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option agreement with two arm’s length vendors to earn a 100% interest in three prospective gold properties adjacent to American Creek’s Empire and Bullion Projects, located 45 km north of Kamloops, British Columbia. To exercise the option, American Creek must pay a total of $75,000 and issue 210,000 common shares of American Creek (“Common Shares”) over a period of four years. The vendors will retain a 25% bulk sample NSR royalty and a 3% NSR royalty. The NSR royalties can be purchased by American Creek in 1/3 increments by payment of the sum of $350,000 for each 8.333% bulk sample NSR royalty and 1% NSR royalty. The agreement is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Goldmist claim group is adjacent to American Creek’s Bullion Project and consists of 10 claims covering approximately 3,105 hectares. The property hosts several high grade gold and base metal showings including surface pyritic quartz veins with visible gold. Several large soil geochemical anomalies have also been defined on the property.

The Austruck-Bonanza claim group is located adjacent to American Creek’s Empire Project and is contiguous with the Bonaparte Gold Mine. The property consists of 27 claims covering approximately 3,983 hectares. Highlights of historic drilling on the Bonaparte property include 113.70 g/t gold over 0.87 metres, 84.21 g/t gold over 1.44 metres, 142.97 g/t gold over 1.2 metres, 321.22 g/t gold over 0.56 metres, and 115.41 g/t gold over 1.07 metres. An open pit was excavated on the Bonaparte property in 1994 and a 3700 tonne bulk sample was extracted grading approximately 26.5 g/t gold. Management believes that the Austruck-Bonanza claim group may be located along strike to the north and west of the Bonaparte discovery.

The Baub claim group is located within American Creek’s Bullion Project and consists of 4 claims covering approximately 650 hectares. The property contains known outcrops of the same intrusive rocks that host the high grade gold veins on the Bonaparte Property.

All three properties are easily accessible as there are numerous existing and proposed logging roads in the area.
