Arco Resources Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ARR) ("Arco" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that Micon International Ltd. ("Micon") has completed an independent
technical report under National Instrument 43-101 that includes a mineral
resource estimate on the Company's 100%-owned Taviche property located near
Oaxaca City, Mexico. The Inferred Mineral Resource estimate is 160,000 tonnes
grading 197.8 g/t Silver (Ag) and 0.85 g/t Gold (Au), at a 100 g/t Silver
Equivalent (AgEq) cut-off. This equates to 1,017,000 ounces of silver and 4,400
ounces of gold at a 100 g/t AgEq cut-off. This is the first mineral resource
estimate ever on the Taviche Property. The report has now been filed on SEDAR
and recommends a two-phase property-wide exploration program with a budget of
$556,000.


David Makepeace, PEng. and a senior geologist for Micon, is the independent
Qualified Person responsible for preparing the mineral resource estimate on
Taviche. This initial resource was created using a block model and interpolated
using an Inverse Distance Squared (ID2) method on the capped composites. The
Taviche mineral resource is based on surface and underground sampling and a
15-hole, 1,700 metre surface diamond drill program that was carried out in 2010.


The Viridiana vein has been traced for approximately 2,700 metres to the western
end of the property. Arco began a channel sampling program in 2009 that provided
Ag values as high as 435 g/t, and 9.36 g/t Au over 1.3 metres; underground
channel samples provided higher results with 605 g/t Ag and 3.68 g/t Au over 2.0
metres. After this channel sampling program was completed, Arco undertook the
drill program to test the Viridiana vein. The 2010 drill program yielded
mineralization in 14 of 15 holes with the highlights being hole BDT - 2, with a
true width interval of 6.5 metres grading 175 g/t Ag and 1.14 g/t Au; and hole
BDT - 8 with a true width interval of 3.2 metres grading 245 g/t Ag and 0.83 g/t
Au.


The 2010 drill program was carried out under the supervision of Paul Cowley,
P.Geo. and the Company's Chief Geologist. Standard, blank, and duplicate samples
were inserted throughout the sample sequence as quality control checks. Samples
were analyzed by Acme Analytical Labs.


The contents of this press release have been reviewed and approved by David
Makepeace, P.Eng. and Paul Cowley, P.Geo. for the Company.


1) Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated
economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected
by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political,
marketing, or other relevant issues.


2) Confidence in the estimate of Inferred Mineral Resources is insufficient to
allow the meaningful application of technical and economic parameters. There is
no guarantee that all or any part of a mineral resource can or will be converted
into a mineral reserve.


3) The mineral resources in this estimate were calculated using the Canadian
Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral
Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing
Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by CIM Council.
