(TSXV:TRU) (OTCQB:TRUIF) ("TRU" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it intends to undertake a non-brokered private placement for minimum gross proceeds of C$1,000,000 (the "Offering"), subject to TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") approval, with a lead order from Palisades Goldcorp Ltd. The Offering shall consist of not less than 4,545,455 subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") at a price of $0.22 per Subscription Receipt.

Each Subscription Receipt will, upon completion of the Company's Change of Business (as defined below) and certain other customary conditions for a transaction of this nature, be automatically exercised into one unit of the Company (each, a "Unit"). Each Unit will be comprised of one (1) common share in the capital of the Company (each, a "Share") and one (1) Share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Share at a price of $0.35 for a period of 36 months following the date of closing of the Offering (the "Closing Date"), currently anticipated to occur on March 4, 2021.

As previously announced by TRU on February 2, 2021, the Company has entered into a binding term sheet with a subsidiary of TSX-listed Altius Minerals Corporation ("Altius") for the option to purchase the Golden Rose Project located in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt, which transaction will constitute a Change of Business (the "Change of Business") under the policies of the Exchange.

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used by the Company to fund its comprehensive exploration program on the Golden Rose Project; a limited phase one drilling program at the Company's 100%-owned Twilite Gold Project, also in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt; for general corporate and public company purposes, including hiring additional technical personnel and conducting various marketing initiatives; and to add to working capital for the operations of the Company. The maximum gross proceeds under the Offering is C$2,000,000.

The Subscription Receipts issued in the Offering, and the underlying Units, Shares, and Warrants, will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the Closing Date.

Upon completion of the Change of Business, eligible finders will receive (a) a cash commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds raised from subscribers to the Offering who were introduced by such finder, and (b) such number of non-transferrable finder warrants ("Finder Warrants") as is equivalent to 7% of the number of Subscription Receipts issued to such subscribers. Each Finder Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Share at a price of $0.22 for a period of 36 months following the Closing Date.
