CAN Orca Gold, Inc.

Canaco Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CAN) is pleased to report that reverse
circulation (RC) drilling has commenced on its 100%-owned Kilindi licence on the
Handeni project in Tanzania. A total of 10,000 metres of drilling is planned for
the four key target areas of Kwadijava, Kwadijava South, Majiri and Majiri
Bomba. Infill and extension drilling has also recommenced on the Magambazi zone
with three rigs, and an additional fourth rig is scheduled to start in February
to accelerate Magambazi definition drilling. 


Three high-priority targets are defined along the Majiri-Semwaliko-Kwadijava
(MSK) trend, supported by artisanal workings including bedrock and alluvial
operations, soil geochemical anomalies, and magnetic and IP targets/trends.
These targets will be the principal focus of the RC drill campaign.


The Handeni gold trend is now recognized as consisting of two parallel gold
trends with a combined strike length of over 15 kilometres. All of Canaco's
diamond drilling to date, which comprises more than 100 holes totalling 30,000
metres, has been along the Magambazi trend. The MSK trend has not been drill
tested. The MSK trend is a sequence of metamorphosed mafic rocks (amphibolites)
inter-bedded with sedimentary rocks (shales and siltstones - now kyanite-bearing
gneiss), directly above a major geological boundary (basement granitic gneiss). 


Quality Control 

The planning, execution and monitoring of Canaco's quality control programs at
the Harvest project are under the supervision Jeff Heidema, P.Geo, Canaco's VP
Exploration, and Dr. David Groves, Canaco's Director of Project Development. Mr.
Heidema and Dr. Groves are Qualified Persons as defined by National Instrument
43-101. Canaco utilizes an industry standard QA/QC protocol with respect to
sampling procedures. Blanks and certified reference standards are inserted into
the sample stream to monitor laboratory performance and duplicates of pulps and
bulk rejects are also used to monitor laboratory performance.


Additional information and public documents about Canaco, including a complete
