Vancouver, British Columbia, June 8th, 2021 - St. James Gold Corp. (the “Company”)

to $6,510,000 so long as the total number of Units and FT Units issued pursuant to the Offering
does not exceed 2,170,000.
Each Unit shall be comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a
“Common Share”) and one Common S hare purchase warrant ( each, a “Warrant”), with each
Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one additional Common Share at an exercise price
of $3.90 for a period of three (3) years from the Closing Date.
Each FT Unit shall be comprised of one Common Share (each, a “FT Share”) which will qualify
as a “flow -through share” as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the
“Tax Act ”) and one Warrant, w ith each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one
additional Common Share, which shall not qualify as a “flow-through share”, at an exercise price
of $3.90 for a period of three (3) years from the Closing Date.
The Company has granted the Agent an option, exercisable in whole or in part, at any time prior
to the Closing Date, to increase the size of the Offering by up to 500,000 Units to raise additional
gross proceeds of up to $1,500,000.
The Offering will be conducted pursuant to the terms of an agency agreement to be entered into
between the Company and the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date. The Company has agreed to
pay the Agent a cash fee equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and to issue that

Unit for a period of three (3) years from the Closing Date at an exercise price of $3.00. In addition,
the Company has agreed to pay the Agent a corporate finance fee payable in Units and equal to

Project and Newfoundland properties and for general corporate purposes. The gross proceeds
raised from the sale of FT Units will only be used to incur “Canadian exploration expenses” that
