ROYAL GOLD MINING INC. DOUBLES THE SIZE OF THE PARTRIDGE GOLD PROJECT IN

THE NORMETAL-PERRON AREA, ABITIBI, QUEBEC

Vancouver, BC, October 13, 2020 – Royal Gold Mining Inc. (ROYL:TSXV) (the “Company”) is pleased

to announce a major and important expansion of the Partridge Gold Project situated in Abitibi, Quebec.

The Project covers several unique historic gold and base metal (zinc ± copper) occurrences located on

structural trend with Amex Exploration Inc.’s high grade Perron Gold Project and the previous ly producing

Normetal mine and VMS deposit.

The Project is comprised of a cluster of several mineral properties totalling 107.2 km 2 located in the Abitibi

region of northwestern Quebec. The properties lie within a radius of approximately 20 to 60 kilometers to the

north and northeast of the mining town of La Sarre, approximately 120 road- km north of the mining center of

Rouyn-Noranda, and about 720 kilometres northwest of Montreal. The region has a dense network of paved

highways and all-season gravel roads.

On October 8, 2020 the Company entered into a binding agreement to purchase 97 mineral claims totalling

5454.60 hectares from the Vendor. Together with 95 claims (5268.22 h ectares) purchased from the same

Vendor in January 2020 (see Company press release dated January 17, 2020) the Project total is now 192

claims totaling 10722.82 hectares (107.2 km2).

No new properties have been created; rather the additional claims have allowed the important expansion of 5

of the Company’s existing Partridge Project properties.

The 97 claims were staked by the Vendor soon after the Company purchased the original 95 claims in

January 2020, hence their availability to the Company now despite the thousands of mineral licenses that

have been registered to others in the Perron and Partridge projects region since early this year.

Pearson Property: The large Pearson property has now been expanded from 62 to 88 claims , for a total of

4648.66 hectares (46.5 km2).

Lac Authier Property : Four geographically separated blocks of claims (10 claims in all) , each hosting one

historical gold occurrence and purchased by the Company in January 2020, have now been tied together into

a single claims block by the addition of 45 claims for a total of 55 claims covering 3057.40 hectares (30.6

km2). The new Lac Authier property hosts all four historic gold occurrences ; Ouest Goldfield, Ruisseau

Concretion-Nord, Sondage 93-05, and Rang II lot 48.

Lac Turgeon Property: Six small blocks of claims ( 9 claims in all) purchased by the Company in January

2020 have now been consolidated into 4 larger blocks by the addition of 23 new claims for a total of 32

claims covering 1750.81 hectares (17.5 km2). The 4 blocks of the Lac Turgeon property are on strike with

and neighbouring to small properties held by others that contain the historic Rollmac and Lac Turgeon- Rive

Ouest gold occurrences.

VA-11-02 Property: One original block of 3 claims previously acquired by the Company has been expanded

to 8 claims totalling 451.87 hectares (45.2 km2). The property contains the historic VA-11-02 gold occurrence.

2

Ruisseau Partridge Block: Increased from one to three claims for a total of 169.24 hectares (0.17 km2).

Royal Gold Mining Inc. has obtained the right to purchase a 100% interest in the 97 mineral claims by issuing

100,000 Units at a deemed price of CAD $0.30 each together with $20,000 payable within 10 days of TSX

Venture Exchange approval. Each unit is comprised of one common share and one warrant exercisable at

$0.50 for 12 months to acquire an additional common share. The vendor will retain a 2. 0% Net Smelter

Return royalty. The Company may at any time purchase 1.0% of the NSR for the sum of $1,000,000.

The Partridge Gold Project claims are located in Chazel, Clermont, Disson, Lavergne, Ligneris, Perron,

Rousseau and Vanier townships within National Topographic Sheet s 32D11, 32D15, 32E01, 32E02, 32E03

and 32E04.
