TORONTO, October 25, 2019 - Rogue Resources Inc. (TSXV:RRS) ("Rogue" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the closing of an initial tranche of its previously announced private placement and the TSX Venture Exchange's ("TSXV") conditional approval of Rogue's agreement to acquire an 85% interest in the Bobcaygeon limestone quarry (the "Bobcaygeon Acquisition") (see the August 12, 2019 press release).

"I'm excited to close this part of the financing, insiders bought in for this tranche, alongside new and existing shareholders who believe in the fundamentals of the Rogue Stone business", said Sean Samson, President and CEO of Rogue, "Buyers are looking for this stone in the Ontario market and we are excited to get moving with Rogue's Bobcaygeon Acquisition. We expect to have an additional update on Orillia and the continued financing in November."

Closing Tranche 1 of the Private Placement

Rogue is pleased to announce closing (the "Closing") of the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the "Offering"). At Closing the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $401,600 from the Offering, at a price of $0.10 per unit ("Unit") from the issuance of 4,016,000 Units. Each Unit consists of one common share ("Common Share") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant") entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.20 until October 25, 2021. The proceeds from the sale of Units will be used for project acquisition expenses and general corporate purposes. The Common Shares and Warrants issued at Closing are subject to approval of the TSXV and to resale restrictions in accordance with applicable securities laws.

In connection with Closing, the Company has paid finders' fees of $1,974 and has also issued 19,740 non-transferable warrants ("Finder's Warrants") to certain arm's length finders. Each Finder's Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional Common Share at a price of $0.20 for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the Private Placement.

Final Terms for Rogue's Bobcaygeon Acquisition, also known as "Johnston Farm Quarry"

The consideration payable by Rogue for the Bobcaygeon Acquisition consists of:

• An immediate cash payment of $200,000;
• The issuance of 1,620,000 Rogue Common Shares;
• A $700,000 Vendor mortgage secured against the property (the "Vendor Mortgage Principal Amount") with:
  • Interest accruing quarterly on the outstanding balance at the annual rate of 5.25%, until maturity or until full repayment;
  • Quarterly Interest-only payments to begin when the property earns a positive Net Profit;
  • Term of four years from closing of the acquisition and can be completely repaid at any time in lump sum;
  • Remaining principal at the end of term (if any) will be repayable, at the Vendor's request, in either cash or Common Shares. If converted, the deemed price per security at which the debt is converted will not be less than the Discounted Market Price (as defined in TSXV policies) at the time of conversion and will be subject to approval by the TSXV;
• Assumption of an additional $100,000 mortgage on the property;
• If Rogue chooses to add any additional mortgages to the property, it has agreed to pay the Vendor a one-time levy of $75,000, to be counted against the remaining Vendor Mortgage Principal Amount, and a subordination fee for each month any additional mortgage is in place. The subordination fee will be calculated using a 2.5% annualized rate of the principal of the additional mortgage.
• For potential sales into the higher value Architectural and Block Export markets, a capped Premium Market Net Profit Royalty, calculated as:
  • 10% of Net Profit for tonnes with Net Profit between $100 and $200 per tonne, up to $1.5M; and
  • 20% of Net Profit for tonnes with >$200 Net Profit per tonne, up to $1.5M.

The Acquisition remains subject only to the transfer of the permit and final approval of the TSXV.

Details of the Bobcaygeon Quarry

The Bobcaygeon Acquisition includes a privately owned parcel representing approximately 40 hectares, located approximately 10 km east of the town of Bobcaygeon and 155 km northeast of Toronto (the "Bobcaygeon Quarry"). The property currently has a Class B Aggregate License to extract up to 20,000 tonnes of natural stone per year and has historically produced armour stone, steps and flagstone. The quarry permit covers an area of approximately 12.3 hectares (123 km² ) allowing for extraction of natural stone to within 1 metre of the ground water table that is estimated to range from 5 to 10 meters from the current quarry floor. As part of internal due diligence, Rogue conducted limited diamond drilling, which provided samples of the underlying limestone units and helped to verify the continuation of marketable material below the pit floor.

Rogue has secured Intent to Purchase Agreements with stone buyers for production from the Bobcaygeon Quarry to eight of the largest landscape stone buyers in Ontario and the US Midwest (see the August 26, 2019 and September 2, 2019 press releases).

The Company intends to restart operations on the Bobcaygeon Quarry immediately which will include the acquisition of certain heavy equipment, hiring of a quarry team and sales of the existing inventory available at the site. Additional equipment and employees will be retained as new limestone products are extracted from the quarry for sale into the limestone markets.

The work completed on the Bobcaygeon Quarry at this stage is preliminary in nature and the limited drill data and exploration work 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 with the Bobcaygeon Acquisition or development of or production from the Bobcaygeon Quarry. This potential decision would be based on past production performance, the results of negotiated cost estimates as well as the securing of supply contracts for the Bobcaygeon limestone products. Among the risks associated the Bobcaygeon Acquisition and with any development decision to proceed into production is the possibility that the quarry will not be economically or technically viable and/or that development timetables, cost estimates and production forecasts may not be realized.
