Exploration Programs

News Release

BARU GOLD ANNOUNCES STRUCTURAL STUDY

Baru Gold Corporation (“Baru” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the appointment

of Murphy Geological Services (“MGS”) to conduct a structural study for the entire Sangihe

Island Contract of Work (CoW) area. The study is scheduled to be completed before the end

of this calendar year. This effort will involve the acquisition, processing, and interpretation

of Sentinel-2 and Hi-Res (WorldView, GeoEye and Pleiades) satellite imagery to develop a

structural synthesis for the geological occurrence of known gold occurrences, and to establish

a benchmark for future exploration targets. MGS has undertaken more than 225 remote

sensing GIS and/or structural field analysis projects for mineral exploration in a wide range

of tectonic settings across the world, and we look forward to using this technique to further

our gold discovery ambitions.

Mr. Colin J Davies, Independent Director of Baru, adds, “ I have used MGS on numerous

occasions before in Indonesia, Malaysia and Mongolia, and the results are exceptional in

gaining an understanding of the big picture. With this knowledge, you save time in regional

exploration work by focussing on strain anomali es and the areas of structural dilation that

are highlighted in this type of study . Targets are ranked by several parameters using the

known data from the existing project areas as well as the satellite image interpretation, so it

is both accurate and consistent. The object of the exercise is to discover more gold, and this

method will certainly improve our chances in the new year.”

Mr. Terry Filbert, CEO of Baru, adds, “I believe the Company will benefit greatly from this

very cost-effective exploration tool that will provide multiple ranked targets for our ground

teams to follow -up and evaluate at the beginning of next year. Using this approach, MGS

can also provide a high level of detail ar ound the existing deposits, and this will aid our

recently announced drilling program. I look forward to reporting the results in due course.”

On September 14, 2021, the Company announced the commencement of a 25,000 meter

drilling program at the Sangihe Binbase -Bawone. This structural study will further support

the reconnaissance mapping and sampling completed last month. The reconnaissance efforts

identified four new prospects which could become future exploration drilling targets if the

samples taken from these prospects return positive assay results. The Company will use the

latest nonintrusive data gathering and interpretation methods to do the geological survey of

the CoW. Nothing will be disturbed or damaged environmentally or socially.

Our team on the island has been very busy over the last few months in preparation for con -

current execution of both the construction of two 100,000 tonnes heap leach pads (announced

on October 5, 2021) a nd commencement of the drilling program (announced on September

14, 2021). During the last few weeks, the Company has constructed several drill pads in

anticipation of the drill rig that is currently enroute to the island.

Note: The Company cautions readers that the any production decision made by the Com pany 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 such as the interpretation of drill results; the geology, grade and

continuity of mineral deposits; the possibility that future exploration, development or mining results

will not be consistent with our expectations; commodity and currency price fluctuation; failure to

obtain adequate financing; regulatory, recovery rates, refinery costs, and other relevant conversion

factors, permitting and licensing risks; general market and mining exploration risks and production

and economic risks related to design and engineering, manufacturing, technological processes and

test procedures and the risk that the project's output will not be salable at a price that will cover the

project's operating and maintenance costs.

ABOUT SANGIHE GOLD PROJECT

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

northern coast of Sulawesi. Sangihe has an existing National Instrument 43- 101 inferred

mineral resource of 114,700 indicated and 105,000 inferred ounces of gold, as reported in

the Company's "Inde pendent Technical Report on the Mineral Resource Estimates of the

Binebase and Bawone Deposits, Sangihe Project, North Sulawesi, Indonesia" (May 30,

2017). 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'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 three 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. The Company has received approval for the upgrade of its licence to

advance the Sangihe project to construction and production in late 2021/early 2022.
