RECONNAISSANCE MAPPING DEFINES POTENTIAL NEW EXPLORATION

TARGETS ON SANGIHE

Vancouver, BC - Baru Gold Corp (“Baru” or the "Company”) has, during the past month

on Sangihe, undertaken reconnaissance mapping and sampling prior to the commencement

of the Resource Development drilling program . This effort has identified four new

prospects which could become fut ure exploration drilling targets should t he samples taken

from these prospects return positive assay results.

The four new prospects are known as Darelupang, West Bawone, South west Bawone and

South Salurang.

• The Darelupang prospect is located 300 metres west of the Binebase 2021 Resource

Development Drilling holes. It is defined as a low sulphidation (LS) vein system

composed of a sheeted q uartz vein zo ne of 1.2 metres width within a volcanic breccia

host rock. Textures that are visible on individual veins within this zone ar e vuggy,

zoning, and colloform bending.

• The West Bawone prospect is located 300 metres west of the Bawone 2021 Resource

Development Drilling holes. It is defined as high sulphidation (HS) silica -alunite

system composed of a 1 metre wide hydrothermal bre ccia with chloritic an d hematitic

alteration within a volcanic breccia host rock. The hydrothermal breccia has a

chalcedonic-silica ground mass.

• The South Salurang prospect is located 100 metres south of the current exploration

drilling program planned from Bawone to South of Salurang village and southeast of

the outskirts of S alurang village. It is defined as high sulphidation (HS) silica -alunite

system composed of a 1 metre wide oxidized sheeted- stockwork zone with a density of

10 veinlets/ metre. The veinlets with the stockwork zone have a brecciated texture. At a

separate location in the South Salurang was an outcrop of oxidized vuggy silica rock

with a width of 1.5 metres which consists of a brecciated and vuggy texture.

• The Southwest Bawone prospect is located 1,100 metres southwest of the Bawone 2021

Resource Development Drilling holes. It is defined as a low sulphidation (LS) vein

system composed of a hydrothermal br eccia of 1 metre width with hematitic alteration

within a volcanic breccia host rock. Also sampled at the Southwest Bawone prospect

was a brecciated green silica v ein with hematitic alteration on the clasts , colloform

bending of the veinlets and a chloritic ground mass as shown in Figure 1.

All outcrops encount ered in these four new prospects have been mapped with grab and

channel samples and have been submitted to the Intertek Laboratory in Jakarta for assay

analysis.

Frank Rocca, Chief Geologist of Ba ru Gold, commented, “All of thes e new prospects

are very exciting as none are included in the resources covered in the Sangihe 2010 NI 43-

101 report which identified 835,000 ounces of gold as inferred resource s; and so, with

further exploration, these resources have the potential to be expanded significantly. Also

important to note, as with the area Baru will soon begin production on, the ne wly explored

areas will not require the relocation of any homes or villages.”

ABOUT SANGIHE GOLD PROJECT

The Sangihe Gold Project (“Sangihe”) is loc ated 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 105,0 00 inferred ounces of gold, as reported in

the Company's "Independent T echnical Report on the Mineral Resource Estimates of the

Binebase and Bawone Deposits, Sa ngihe P roject, Nort h Sulawesi, Indonesia" (May 30,

2017). Readers are cautioned that mineral res ources that are not mineral reserves do not

have demonstrated economic via bility. 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 thre e Indon esian corpor ations. The term of the Sangihe CoW

agreement is 30 years upon commencement of the production phase of the project.

Baru has met all the requiremen ts 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.

Note: The Company cautio ns readers that the any production decision made by the Company will

not be based on a NI 43- 101 feasibility study of mineral reserves t hat demonstrates economic and

technical viability and as such, there may be involved increased uncertainty and var ious

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; c ommodity and currency price fluctu ation; 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.
