September 30, 2005

The Board of Directors
AmeriResource Technologies, Inc.
3430 E. Russell Road, Suite 317
Las Vegas, Nevada 89120

To the Board of Directors of AmeriResource Technologies, Inc.:

AmeriResource Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), has
informed Woltjen Law Firm (the "Firm"), of its intention to file on or about
September 23, 2005, a Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the registration
statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
("Registration Statement"), concerning Thirty Five Million (30,000,000) shares
(the "Shares") of its common stock, par value $0.0001 ("Common Stock"), with the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In connection with the filing of the
Registration Statement, you have requested the Firm's opinion regarding the
issuance of Common Stock.

You have represented to the Firm that the Company is subject to the reporting
requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, that the Company is current in filing such reporting requirements with
the SEC and that the Company's board of directors has authorized the filing of
the Registration Statement. Based on these representations and to the best of
the Firm's knowledge, the Firm is of the opinion that the Common Stock will,
when sold, be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable. This Opinion is
conditioned upon the above requirements being met.

The opinion set forth above is predicated upon and limited to the correctness of
the assumptions set forth herein, and is further subject to qualifications,
exceptions, and limitations set forth below:

     A. The Firm expressly excepts from the opinion set forth herein any opinion
     or position as to whether or to what extent a Delaware court, or any other
     court, would apply Delaware law, or the law of any other state or
     jurisdiction except the federal law of the United States of America, to any
     particular aspect of the facts, circumstances and transactions that are the
     subject of the opinion herein contained.

     B. In rendering this opinion, the Firm assumed that the Company is
     satisfying the various substantive requirements of Form S-8. The Firm,
     therefore, expressly disclaims any opinion regarding the Company's
     compliance with such requirements.
                                       
                                       5


     C. The Firm expressly excepts from the opinion set forth herein any opinion
     concerning the need for compliance by any party, specifically by the
     Company, with the provisions of the securities laws, regulations, and/or
     rules of the United States of America, the State of Delaware, or any other
     jurisdiction.

     D. In expressing the opinion set forth herein, the Firm assumed the
     authenticity and completeness of all corporate documents, records and
     instruments provided to the Firm by the Company and its representatives.
     The Firm assumed the accuracy of all statements of fact contained therein.
     The Firm further assumed the genuineness of signatures (both manual and
     conformed), the authenticity of documents submitted as originals, the
     conformity to originals of all copies, or faxed copies, and the correctness
     of all such documents. This opinion is conditioned on all of these
     assumptions being correct.

     E. The Firm expressly excepts from the opinion set forth herein any opinion
     concerning the propriety of any issuance of any shares, or the
     consideration tendered for such shares, and any opinion concerning the
     tradability of any shares whether or not issued under the Registration
     Statement.

     F. The opinion contained herein is rendered as of the date hereof, and the
     Firm undertakes no obligation to advise of any changes in or any new
     developments which might affect any matters or opinions set forth herein,
     and the Firm hereby disclaims any such obligation.

This Opinion may be relied upon by you only in connection with filing of the
Registration Statement, and the Firm hereby consents to the use of it as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement. This Opinion may not be used or relied
upon by you or any other person for any purpose whatsoever, without in each
instance the Firm's prior written consent.

Sincerely,

/s/ Woltjen Law Firm
