“I am pleased that Renforth is able to deliver to shareholders this value increase to our asset. Despite the general
lack of interest in the junior exploration market we have been able to fund our exploration plan and update our resource,
acquiring the additional 146,399 contained ounces of gold at an “all-in” exploration cost below $9 CAD/ounce. I hope
shareholders take comfort in this demonstration of our efficient use of shareholder capital. I personally believe that focusing
on growing our assets where we can, cost-effectively, in this market where junior exploration is largely overlooked, will benefit
Renforth once gold ounces are desired,” states Nicole Brewster, President & CEO of Renforth.
Mineralization at Parbec is at surface, down to a current maximum vertical depth of 738m, the deepest point included within
the resource estimate is at a depth of 440m. With a few exceptions the bulk of the drilling at Parbec can be considered
relatively shallow, resulting in a resource that is currently shallow but open at depth, offering the potential to add ounces
with successful deeper drilling. In addition to being open at depth the mineralization is also open along strike,
approximately 700m of interpreted surface strike of the mineralized structure remains on the Parbec property to be drilled.
The following graph illustrates that approximately 80% of the ounces and tonnage contained in the September 2018 Resource
Estimate are located above a depth of 200m.

The table above is included to demonstrate the effect of raising the cut-off grade above the 0.5 g/t used in the September
2018 Resource Estimate. As seen the tonnage meeting the higher cut-off grade decreases, resulting in fewer ounces within
that tonnage with a higher grade than the 2018 Resource Estimate stated.
With the release of this resource update Renforth will, as previously announced, commence non-brokered fundraising efforts
through the issuance of units on a common or flow-through share basis. These units will be priced at $0.05 with a full
warrant exercisable at $0.10 for 24 months from closing and at $0.06 with a half warrant exercisable at $0.12 for 18 months from
closing respectively. The amount to be raised will depend upon market conditions, at a minimum Renforth would look to raise
$250,000, as this amount is sufficient for a drill program at Parbec.
A NI 43-101 technical report supporting this resource estimate update will be filed on SEDAR once available.
Technical Information in this press release has been reviewed and approved by Francis Newton P.Geo, a “qualified person”
pursuant to the guidelines of 43-101.
