American Creek samples 694 g/t (20.24 oz/t) gold on Electrum Property

American Creek Resources Ltd. (“American Creek” and the “Company”) (AMK:TSX-V) is pleased to report assay results from selected rock chip samples on the Electrum Property located in northwest British Columbia, Canada.

In June of 2010, American Creek conducted follow-up chip sampling from a number of consistent epithermal breccia-veins that appear to control the precious metal mineralization within the property.

A chip sample of 694 g/t gold and 550 g/t silver was obtained along a gold-bearing system of closely spaced epithermal breccia-veins exposed on surface in continuous outcrop for over 50 meters. This sample was taken from an inferred dilation area of an epithermal vein 8 meters from a sample collected in 2008 that returned values of 78.7 g/t gold with 114 g/t silver and 48 meters from a sample also collected in 2008 that returned values of 615 g/t gold with 616 g/t silver.

Assays grading 71.8 g/t gold with over 10,000 g/t silver and another grading 5.21 g/t gold with 2,800 g/t silver were obtained from other chip samples collected near the former East Gold mine. Similar veins on the property returned high-grade gold and silver values (Table 1). A total of 15 samples were taken in 2010.

The sampling was focused on extending the mineralized zones to the south of the historic East Gold mine in an area with little previous drilling. A high-grade gold and silver mineralized area has been delineated, using both 2010 and 2008 samples, on surface over an extension of 500×500 metres.
