About RUA GOLD

RUA GOLD is a well funded exploration company, strategically focused on New Zealand. With decades

of expertise, their team has successfully taken major discoveries into producing world-class mines

across multiple continents. The team is focused on maximizing the asset potential of RUA GOLD's two

highly prospective high-grade gold projects.

The Company controls the Reefton Gold District as the dominant landholder in the Reefton Goldfield on

New Zealand's South Island with over 120,000 hectares of tenements, in a district that historically

produced over 2Moz of gold grading between 9 and 50g/t.

The Company's Glamorgan Project solidifies RUA GOLD's position as a leading high-grade gold

explorer on New Zealand's North Island. This highly prospective project is located within the North

Islands' Hauraki district, a region that has produced an impressive 15Moz of gold and 60Moz of silver.

Glamorgan is adjacent to OceanaGold Corporation's biggest gold mining project, Wharekirauponga.
