RUA GOLD Announces C$12 Million Brokered Offering of Common Shares

Rua Gold Inc. (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF) (WKN: A40QYC) ("RUA GOLD" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Cormark Securities Inc. and Red Cloud Securities Inc., to act as agents (the "Agents") on a "best efforts" agency basis in connection with a public offering (the "Public Offering") and contemporaneous private placement (the "Private Placement") of 17,143,000 common shares in the capital of the Company (each, a "Common Share") at a price of C$0.70 per Common Share (the "Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of C$12,000,100 (the "Offering"). The allocation of the number of Common Shares to be issued in connection with the Public Offering and the Private Placement will be determined prior to filing the Supplement (as defined below).

The Offering is expected to close on or about June 26, 2025 (the "Closing Date"), or such other date as agreed upon between the Company and the Agents, and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals.

The Company has granted to the Agents an option (the "Over-Allotment Option") exercisable, in whole or in part, prior to the Closing Date to sell, at the Offering Price, up to 2,571,450 additional Common Shares (being that number of additional Common Shares equal to 15% of the number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Offering) for market stabilization purposes and to cover over-allotments, if any.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for continuing the exploration program on its New Zealand properties, and for general working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Common Shares issued with respect to the Public Offering will be issued pursuant to a prospectus supplement (the "Supplement") to the Company's base shelf prospectus dated July 11, 2024 (the "Shelf Prospectus") that will be filed in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, except Quebec.

In consideration for the services rendered in connection with the Offering, the Company will pay the Agents a customary cash fee and issue to the Agents a customary number of broker warrants, subject to reduced consideration in respect of president's list sales.

The Private Placement will be completed pursuant to applicable exemptions from the prospectus requirements in all of the Provinces of Canada. The Common Shares may also be sold in the United States on a private placement basis pursuant to available exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") and applicable U.S. state securities laws, and other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States pursuant to available prospectus or registration exemptions in accordance with applicable laws provided that no prospectus, registration statement or similar document is required to be filed in such jurisdiction.

Copies of the Supplement, following filing thereof, and the Shelf Prospectus may be obtained on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Shelf Prospectus contains, and the Supplement will contain, important detailed information about the Company and the proposed Offering including the proposed use of proceeds therefrom. Prospective investors should read the Supplement, accompanying Shelf Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference therein before making an investment decision.
