NEWS RELEASE
Aldebaran Upsizes Previously Announced Private Placement and Grants Options
August 28, 2020 (Vancouver, BC) - Aldebaran Resources Inc. ("Aldebaran" or the "Company", ALDE TSX.V)
is pleased to announce that it has increased the size of its previously announced non-brokered private placement of
units (the "Offering") from $3,000,000 to $4,800,000. Upon closing of the Offering, the Company will issue up to
16,000,000 units ("Units") at a price of CAD$0.30 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one common share in the equity
of the Company (each, a "Common Share") and one-half of one share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a
"Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional Common Share at a price of $0.70 until
the second anniversary of the closing date of the Offering.
The proceeds of the Offering will be used to support the Company’s current activities, which consist of a re-logging
program of existing drill core, preparing a new mineral resource estimate for the Company’s Altar copper-gold project
in San Juan Province, Argentina, planning an exploration campaign for the next field season commencing in
November of this year, and for general corporate purposes.
The Offering is scheduled to close on or about September 14, 2020, and is subject to certain conditions including, but
not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”). The securities
to be issued under this Offering will be offered by way of private placement exemptions in various provinces of
Canada. The Units to be issued under this Offering may also be offered outside of Canada, pursuant to applicable
exemptions and in the United States on a private placement basis pursuant to exemptions from the registration
requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company may pay a cash finder’s fee of
5% to qualified finders in respect to a portion of the Offering.
Certain insiders of Aldebaran will acquire securities in the Offering. Any such participation would be considered a
“related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101. The Company is relying on certain
exemptions in 61-101 based on the size of the Offering in connection therewith.
The securities referred to in this news release have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account
or benefit of, U.S. persons absent U.S. registration or an applicable exemption from the U.S. registration requirements.
This release does not constitute an offer for sale of, nor a solicitation for offers to buy, any securities in the United
States. Any public offering of securities in the United States must be made by means of a prospectus containing
detailed information about the issuer and its management, as well as financial statements.
The Company also announces that it has issued an aggregate of 2,300,000 stock options to employees, officers,
directors, and consultants. The stock options have an exercise price of $0.40 per share and were granted in accordance
with the terms of the Company’s stock option plan, which has been approved by the Company’s shareholders and the
Exchange.

About Aldebaran Resources Inc.
Aldebaran is a mineral exploration company that was spun out of Regulus Resources Inc. in 2018 and has the same
core management team. Aldebaran acquired the Rio Grande copper-gold project located in Salta Province, Argentina
from Regulus along with several other early stage projects in Argentina. Aldebaran also has the right to earn up to an
80% interest in the Altar copper-gold project in San Juan Province, Argentina from Sibanye-Stillwater. Altar hosts a
large porphyry copper-gold system with mineralization currently defined in three distinct zones. The Altar project
forms part of a cluster of world-class porphyry copper deposits which includes Los Pelambres (Antofagasta Minerals),
El Pachon (Glencore), and Los Azules (McEwen Mining). A total of 259 drill holes (124,701 m) have been completed
at Altar between 1995 – 2019. In mid-2018 an updated NI 43-101 resource was prepared for Altar by Independent
Mining Consultants Inc (IMC) based on the drilling completed up to 2017. The updated Altar NI 43-101 report is
available on Aldebaran's SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com. Aldebaran’s primary focus is on the Altar project with a
view to discovering new zones with higher-grade mineralization.
