March 5th, 2018 TSX-V: RRS

Rogue Completes First Phase of Optical Sorting Analysis and

Participating at PDAC

• Snow White Project (Ontario), Positive Optical Sorting Results with segregation of samples, solely on colour

• Exhibiting in the Investor Exchange, Booth #2215 on March 5th during PDAC 2018

• Silicon Ridge Project (Québec), updated by the Ministère des Forêts, de la Faune et des Parcs (“MFFP”) that

the “additional analysis” currently underway is now expected to be completed in Autumn 2018

TORONTO, ON – Rogue Resources Inc. (TSX -V: RRS) (“Rogue” or the “Company”) is pleased to update investors

regarding the optical sorting results and ongoing test work on the Company’s Snow White Quartz Project ("Snow White"

or the "Project"), located near Massey, Ontario, Canada.

A 300 kg sample of previously blasted material from the Snow White Qu arry was optically sorted by a German -based

Optical Sorter manufacturer with a large US testing facility to determine the effectiveness of the optical sorter to

remove lower quality quartz with inclusions, veinlets and staining from the higher purity quartz. The sorting test work

was successful in sorting out the lower quality quartz and algorithms were developed to differentiate the material into

different quality lots using colour alone.

“Based upon our previous optical sorting testing completed on the Silicon Ridge Project, we were confident that the

Snow White material would perform well ”, said Sean Sam son, President and CEO of Rogue Resources. “ We are excited

by the outcome of the optical sorting tests , it confirms our intended processing and helps us as we continue to advance

the Snow White Project inline with our 2018 Plan.”

The work completed on Snow White at this stage is preliminary in nature and the limited drill data and metallurgical

analysis are too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be

categorized even as Mineral Resources. Rogue does not intend to complete a Pre-feasibility or Feasibility Study of Mineral

Reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability before a Development decision to proceed into Production. This

potential decision would be based on a Resource Report, the results of negotiated cost estimates, ongoing engineering

and geochemical test work (including the work referred to in this Release) , the recent metallurgical test work, historic

successful furnace tests as well as the securing of supply contracts for the Snow White quartz/silica products. Among the

risks associated with any Development decision to proceed into Production is the possibility that the zone will not be

economically or technically viable and/or that development timetables, cost estimates and production forecasts may not

be realized.

PDAC 2018

The Company would also like to invite investors to meet with the management team in the Investors Exchange at Booth

2215 on March 5th, during the PDAC Conference being held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre.
