Vancouver, Canada – May 21, 2019 – Canarc Resource Corp. (TSX: CCM, OTC-BB: CRCUF, Frankfurt: CAN) announces that it has received the Government Land Use Permit for multi-phase exploration on the Hard Cash Gold Property located in southwestern Nunavut, Canada.

The permit issued by the Crown-Indigenous Relations Division of Northern Affairs Canada allows Canarc to conduct exploration at the Hard Cash property until June 29, 2024.
