Rogue Announces 2014 and 2015 Drill Results at Golden Arrow Gold
Mine, and Announces Non-Brokered Private Placement
• As part of confirmatory Due Diligence, Rogue has now consolidated the complete Golden Arrow drill database
• 2014 and 2015 Drill Results were never released by VGM, the privately owned developer now selling to Rogue
• Gold mineralization was observed in 19 of 22 drill holes with intercepts ranging from 0.81 to 13.66 gpt Au (Table 2)
• Exploration drilling will target an Au grade for the permitted pit averaging in a range between 1.6 and 2.0 gpt Au [1]
• Further Technical detail and new Investor Relations slides have been added to www.rogueresources.ca
• Rogue plans to raise up to $400,000 through a non-brokered Private Placement
[1]: The range in grade for the exploration target has been derived from information that has been obtained from VGM
and although the data is believed to be reliable, Rogue has not independently verified the information. There is no
National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) compliant resource estimate on
this Mine and, a production decision has not yet been made. If the Company makes a Production Decision on Golden
Arrow it will be disclosed in compliance with Companion Policy 43-101 section 4.2(6). See “Notice to Readers”.
TORONTO, ON – Rogue Resources Inc. (TSX -V: RRS) (“Rogue” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has
consolidated and made available the 2014 and 2015 drill results from the Golden Arrow Project ("Golden Arro w" or the
"Mine"). Rogue previously announced it entered into a letter of intent to acquire Victoria Gold Mines East Timmins Limited
(“VGM”) and an affiliate of VGM (see October 10, 2018 Press Release). The Mine, located south of Matheson, Ontario had
23 diamond drill holes completed between 2014 and 2018, representing 3,860m of diamond drill core.
“I’m very excited about these drill results. After spending over 20 years of my career in the Timmins camp, I know the
regional geology well and finding gold in over 80% of the holes drilled is a great sign for the prospectivity of the Project”,
said Paul Davis, VP Technical of Rogue. “I look forward to getting in and implementing a strategic drill plan incorporating
an analysis of the favourable structures along trend and in parallel trends to the known mineralization, which has not been
completed on the property to date.”
Drill Results Summary
The diamond drill programs completed in 2014 and 2015 by VGM, focused on exploration targets outside of the permitted
pit testing along favourable structural trends to the west of the Main Zone. Drilling intercepted both higher grade, narrow
zones of gold mineralization including Hole A15-15 intersecting 1.5m grading 13.66 pgt Au and A15-22 intersecting 1.5m
grading 7.83 gpt Au and lower grade, broad zones of gold mineralization including A14-09 intersecting 84.0m grading
0.92 gpt Au. The analytical results for the 2014 and 2015 diamond drill programs has been obtained from VGM and Mr.
Paul Davis P.Geo., and Vice -President of the Company has verified the data, including drill logs, sampling methods,
certificates of analysis and discussions with the qualified person(s) involved in the drill programs for the historic data.
There are no known factors that could materially a ffect the reliability of the data verified by Mr. Davis. No quality

Private Placement
Rogue is pleased to announce it plans to issue and sell up to 1,111,111 units of the Company (“Units”) at a price of $0.18
per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $200,000 (the “Unit Offering”) and up to 833,333 flow -through units of the
Company (“FT Units”) at a price of $0.24 per FT Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $200,000 (the “FT Unit Offering” and
together with the Unit Offering, the “Private Placement”).
Each Unit will consist of one common share of Rogue (each, a “Unit Share”) and one common share purchase warrant
(each, a “Warrant”) entitling the holder thereof to purchase one common share (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise
price of $0.30 until October 16, 2020. Each FT Unit will consist of one flow -through common share of Rogue (each, a “FT
Share”) and one -half of one common share purchase warrant (each, a “FT Warrant”) entitling the holder thereof to
purchase one common share of Rogue (each, a “FT Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of $0.35 until October 16, 2020.
All Warrants issued in the Private Placement will contain an accelerator clause (the “Accelerator Clause”) whereby, if at
any time after October 16, 2019, and prior to the expiry of the Warrants or FT Warrants, the trading price of Rogue’s
common shares exceeds $0.37 for a period of ten consecutive trading days, the Company may provide notice to the
holders of the Warrants and FT Warrants that such warrants will expire 30 days after the date of the notice.
The Private Placement is subject to regulatory approval, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”).
Closing of the Private Placement is expected to occur on or about November 21, 2018. The proceeds of the Unit Offering
will be used for general corporate purposes. The proceeds from the FT Unit Offering will be used for Canadian Exploration
Expenses, as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada).
The Units and FT Units will be offered by way of private placement in each of British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and such
other jurisdictions as the Corporation may determine. The common shares issued in connection with the Private
Placement will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus one day from the date of completion of the
Private Placement, in accordance with applicable securities legislation. The Private Placement will be exempt from
prospectus and registration requirements of applicable securities laws.
In certain instances, the Company may pay finder’s fees (“Finder’s Fees”) to eligible persons (“Finders”) on a portion of
the Private Placement, consisting of a cash payment equal to 7% of gross proceeds raised from applicable subscriptions
for Units and FT Units and the Company may issue non-transferable finder’s warrants (“Finder’s Warrants”) in an amount
up to 7% of the gross proceeds raised from applicable subscriptions. Each Finder’s Warrant will entitle the holder to
acquire one additional common share of Rogue (each, a “Finder’s Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.30 until October 16,
2020. The Finder’s Warrants will be subject to the Accelerator Clause. The payment of the Finder’s Fees and issuance of
Finder’s Warrants is subject to applicable regulatory and TSXV approval.
Golden Arrow Project Financing Strategy
In addition to this Private Placement, which is open to existing and new investors, the Company continues to develop its
larger, discrete Project Financing, likely to be completed with new financing partners. The Project Financing will focus on
debt, as well as royalty and streaming / gold forward sale, plus equity components.

The work completed on the Golden Arrow project at this stage is preliminary in nature. The potential quantity and grade
of the quantity, grade, or metal or mineral content of the Golden Arrow project is conceptual in nature, there has been
insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being
delineated as a mineral resource under NI 43-101.
The risks associated with Rogue’s acquisition of the Golden Arrow project include, without limitation, the possibility that
production will not be economically or technically viable and/or that development timetables, cost estimates and
production forecasts may not be realized. Neither the acquisition of the Golden Arrow project nor any development decision
in respect of the Golden Arrow project thereafter is expected to be contingent on any demonstrated economic or technical
viability of the Golden Arrow project, whether based on completion of a pre -feasibility study, feasibility study, any
exploration program, a resource report or otherwise.
