BARU GOLD ANNOUNCES RE-PRICING OF PRIV ATE PLACEMENT

Vancouver, BC - Baru Gold Corp (“Baru” and its subsidiary PT. Tambang Mas Sangihe (“TMS”) or the

“Company”) announces to shareholders in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange regulations and in response to

market conditions, it has adjusted the pricing of its non-brokered private placement initially set forth on February

27, 2025. The Company is now offering up to 25,000,000 common shares (the "Shares") at a revised price of $0.04

per share, for gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000. Each unit will comprise one common share in the capital of the

Company and one non-transferable common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to

purchase over two years one additional share at an exercise price of $0.07. We expect to close approximately 50%

of the offering, that was raised in the first week of the announcement of the private placement, by the end of this

week and the balance of the financing is expected to close on or before April 20, 2025.

The funds will primarily be used to pay for the outstanding land use tax on the Sangihe Gold Project which is

payable to the Indonesian Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM). The land use tax, colloquially

referred to as “dead-rent” tax, is a fee payable annually. As previously announced, the Company has revised and

submitted all technical and documentary requirements to the ESDM to receive approval for an upgrade to

Production Operations and has been advised that the payment of taxes is the only outstanding requirement to receive

the upgrade to Production Operations.

The use of proceeds of the financing will be $800,000 for the land use taxes and the balance of the funds received

will be used for working capital while the Company waits for the issuance of the upgrade to Production Operations.

Once the upgrade to Production Operations is approved, several potential lenders have expressed interest in non-

dilutive forms of funding to scale project development.

There are no proposed payments to non-arm’s length parties of the Company and no payments to persons conducting

investor relations activities.

The Company reminds interested participants that the Private Placement is subject to re-pricing if the stock price

increases following the release of news.

Insiders of the Company participation in the foregoing offering constitutes a "related party transaction" as defined

under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-

101”). Such participation is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of

MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the securities acquired by the insiders, nor the consideration for the

securities paid by such insiders, exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

ABOUT SANGIHE GOLD PROJECT

The Sangihe Gold Project (“Sangihe”) is located on the Indonesian island of Sangihe, off the northern coast of

Sulawesi with a gold bearing area of approximately 25,000 ha. Sangihe has an existing National Instrument 43-101

report suitable for mining planning and production schedules for an area within the 65-ha area targeted for initial

production. Within the area targeted for initial production, the National Instrument 43-101 report estimates over

200,000 oz of gold resource (Inferred: 91,000 and Indicated: 114,000), and over 3 million oz of silver resource

(Inferred: 1,080,000 and Indicated: 1,930,000) as reported in the Company’s “Independent Technical Report on the

Updated Mineral Resource Estimates of the Binebase and Bawone Deposits, Sangihe Project, North Sulawesi,

Indonesia” (Mining Associates Pty Ltd, February 1st, 2025). Only 10% of the gold bearing area has been explored.

Readers are cautioned that mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic

viability. The Company intends to proceed to production without the benefit of first establishing mineral reserves

supported by a feasibility study. The Company cautions readers that the any production decision made by the

Company will not be based on a NI 43-101 feasibility study of mineral reserves that demonstrates economic and

technical viability and as such, there may be involved increased uncertainty and various technological and

economic risks

The Company's 70-percent interest in the Sangihe-mineral-tenement Contract of Work (“CoW”) is held through

PT. Tambang Mas Sangihe (“TMS”). The remaining 30-percent interest in TMS is held by other Indonesian

corporations. The term of the Sangihe CoW agreement is 30 years upon commencement of the production phase of

the project. Baru has met all the requirements of the Indonesian government and has been granted its environmental

permit.
