BARU GOLD BEGINS EXPLORATION OF 23 NEW STRUCTURAL STUDY TARGETS
WITH PROMISING RESULTS FROM KINGSTON TARGET
Vancouver, BC - Baru Gold Corp (the “Company” or “Baru”) is pleased to announce that
it has commenced field analysis of the 23 new exploration targets identified in the structural
study with some promising initial results.
Initial field analysis began with mapping and sampling of artisanal workings beyond the
western boundary of the Priority 1 Kingston Target which has been named Kingston West
and then progressed to the mapping and sampling of outcrops found within Kingston.
Assay results of the samples taken from the Kingston West Target returned an average gold
grade of 1.84g/t and 2.89g/t for silver. Kingston West contains potential ore grade samples
obtained from strongly oxidised quartz veins in tuffaceous andesite returning assays
ranging from 0.83g/t – 5.57g/t for gold and 0.90g/t – 9.10g/t for silver.
Assay results from the samples taken from within the Kingston Target returned an average
gold grade of 3.89g/t and 3.79g/t for silver. Kingston contains potential ore grade samples
obtained from oxidised hydrothermal breccia with tuffaceous andesite and from strongly
oxidised quartz veins in tuffaceous andes ite returning assays ranging from 0.84g/t –
14.60g/t for gold and 1.70g/t – 13.10g/t for silver.
The 14.60g/t gold assay was obtained from a tuffaceous andesite containing a 0.73m wide
strongly oxidised sheeted vein stockwork containing veinlets of quartz ranging from 0.5cm
– 10cm wide. An example of the quartz veinlet is shown in Figure 1.
These initial sample results from the Kingston West and the Priority 1 Kingston Target
areas have provided some ground truthing of the first of 23 New Exploration Targets
defined by the structural study conducted by Murphy Geological Services.
Mr. Frank Rocca, Chief Geologist of Baru, commented, “These are exciting times for the
exploration team as we seek to expand our knowledge of the CoW beyond the k nown
Binebase-Bawone deposits for additional ore resources . I look forward to reporting the
results of further Field Analysis by the exploration team in due course.”

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 infe rred ounces of gold, as
reported in the Company's "Independent 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 Sa ngihe-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 2022.
Note: 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 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 mar ket 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.
