Baru Gold Corp. (the “Company”) provides an update with respect to the previously announced Management

The Company confirms that as of today it continues to pursue op tions to generate cash flow and/or obtain

additional financing required for the filing of the audited annual financial statements for the year ended August

31, 2023, along with the management's discussion and analysis and related CEO and CFO certificates (the “2023

Filings”) for the period which were required to be filed on or before December 29, 2023.

As previously stated, subject to current conditions remaining the same, the Company remains confident in its

ability to complete the 2023 Fili ngs within the next month and will use its best efforts to complete the process

within the timeline indicated.

The MCTO remains in effect until the Company files the 2023 Fil ings and the BCSC’s Executive Director has

revoked the MCTO. The Company co nfirms that since the date of t he Default Announcement, other than as

described above: (a) there has been no material change to the i nformation set out in the Default Announcement

that has not been generally disclosed; (b) there has been no fa ilure by the Company in fulfilling its stated

intentions with respect to satisfy ing the provisions of the alternative information gui delines set out in NP 12-

203; (c) there has not been, nor is there anticipated to be, an y specified default subsequent to the default which

is the subject of the Default Announcement; and (d) there is no other material information concerning the affairs

of the Company that has not been generally disclosed.

The Company confirms that it will continue to satisfy the provi sions of the alternative information guidelines

under NP 12-203 by issuing bi-weekly default status reports in the form of news releases for so long as it remains

delayed.
