TORONTO, ON – Rogue Resources Inc. (TSX -V: RRS) (“Rogue” or the “Company”) is pleased to update investors
regarding recent developments for the Company’s Snow White Quartz Project ("Snow White" or the "Project"), located
near Massey, Ontario, Canada.
To better understand the Snow White quartz and how a potential quarrying operation could pro cess the quarried
material, Rogue is working closely with world -leading equipment suppliers. This work includes a German based Optical
Sorter manufacturer with a large US testing facility which includes optical sorting capability and an Irish-Canadian based
company, which is a leader in quarry equipment supply.
“This work will be a key part of the de -risking and advancement for Snow White”, said Sean Samson, President and CEO
of Rogue Resources. “ We look forward to learning from the tests and negotiations with these, and other suppliers,
helping advance the Company towards its Q2 Development Decision.”
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 b e
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.
The Company also announces that it has granted an aggregate of 550,000 stock options to the Officers, Directors and
Advisors of the Company , in accordance with the Com pany’s shareholder approved Equity Incentive Plan. The stock
options are exercisable at a price of $0. 39 per share, expire in seven years, and vest over a period of one year, with one
half of the options vesting immediately, and one half vesting at the end of the first anniversary of the date of grant.
