AURCANA CORPORATION: MINEABLE RESERVES AT ALACRAN DEPOSIT INCREASE BY 98 PER CENT, WORK UNDERWAY ON RESOURCE ESTIMATES FOR 7 OTHER DEPOSITS

Aurcana Corp. has received a positive National Instrument (NI) 43-101-compliant reserve calculation on the Alacran deposit of the La Negra mine, Queretaro state, Mexico, from its independent consultants, Wardrop Engineering Inc. A copy of the Wardrop report will be filed on SEDAR within 45 days. Aurcana is very encouraged by the tonnage increase which is a result of the present favourable metal price environment. Other known deposits at La Negra are expected to show similar increases in tonnage.

Highlights of the 43-101 report:

434,825 tonnes of minable reserves, a 98-per-cent increase from historically reported reserves;
36,900 tonnes of mined ore stored in stockpiles ready for processing;
181,239 tonnes of inferred resources in addition to the reserves, not reported historically.
