TRU Commences Exploration Field Season at Golden Rose Project

Exploration Programs

Toronto, Ontario – May 17, 2023 – TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU;

OTCQB:TRUIF) ("TRU" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the start of its 2023 field

exploration season at its 100% owned Golden Rose Project ("Golden Rose" or the "Project") located in

the highly prospective Central Newfoundland Gold Belt.

In March 2023, the Company commissioned GroundTruth Exploration ("GroundTruth") of Dawson,

YT to complete a high-resolution ground magnetometer-VLF (Very Low Frequency) geophysical

survey (the "Mag-VLF survey") over the Mark's Pond area where the Company reported high-grade

gold channel sample results as high as 57.6 g/t Au over 2.5m (refer to TRU news release dated January

12, 2023). The Mag-VLF survey was designed to potentially identify the extent of the shear zone

hosting the high-grade Northcott Gold Zone to the northeast and southwest and to further investigate

the potential for additional parallel shear zones and mineralized fault structures in the vicinity. The

Mag-VLF survey is now complete with final interpreted results expected from GroundTruth within the

next 2 to 3 weeks. Final geophysical results will be announced once received.

The TRU exploration team has recently commenced field work at the Mark's Pond target area

including the remaining channel sampling at the trench opened up in fall 2022. This will be followed

by the completion of at least 3 to 4 new trenches at Mark's Pond spaced at least 100 m apart with the

aim to potentially trace the Northcott Gold Zone and other parallel shear zones along strike in a NE-

SW direction. The Company has also commissioned Terrane Geoscience Inc. ("Terrane") of Halifax,

NS to complete a structural mapping and analysis program at the Mark's Pond and Jacob's Pond

trenches by the end of May. Terrane will collect structural orientation data and characterize tectonic

fabrics, veining, and any other structures that could potentially control mineralization. Combined, these

programs aim to develop several priority diamond drill hole targets at Mark's Pond and Jacob's Pond

(Figure 1).

Paul Ténière, TRU's Vice President - Exploration commented, "We are very excited to be back at

Golden Rose to complete field programs that will further develop the Mark's Pond target and lead to

priority drill hole targets in the short term. The area southwest of Jacob's Pond and south of Twin

Ponds is also a top priority based on the 2022 soil geochemistry results indicating significant copper

and gold-in-soil anomalies. We plan to commence exploration work at Jacob's Pond once our

trenching and channel sampling programs at Mark's Pond have been completed, and we expect to

complete detailed prospecting and mapping in this area leading to further trenching and channel

sampling programs."

The Mark's Pond target area is among the Company's claims under option from Quadro Resources Ltd. (the

"Optionor") pursuant to an option agreement between the parties. Under such agreement, the Optionor will

retain either a 49% interest or a 35% interest, as the case may be, in such claims depending on the extent, if

any, to which TRU exercises its option.
