About the Company

Rupert Resources is a Canadian based gold exploration company. Rupert's
objective is to evaluate the developmental potential of its two assets - the
Surf Inlet property in British Columbia and the Gold Centre property in Ontario
- in parallel with the objective of finding other investment opportunities in
near term producing assets through active searches for development projects.
Rupert holds a 100% interest in the Gold Centre property, which has the
distinction of being one of the best-positioned exploration land packages within
the entire Red Lake gold mining camp. The Gold Centre property is immediately
adjacent to and on trend with the world's richest gold mine, Goldcorp, now
working within 600m of Rupert's boundary.


In 2004, Rupert commenced an 11,900m drill program on the Gold Centre property
consisting of two main holes and several daughter holes. Although, at the 2008
conclusion of this program no significant gold was found in that small area in
the South West portion of the property, strong geological features were
encountered. On the heels of a recent $510,000 private placement, the new Summer
2013 exploration program has been completed. A geophysical program delineated
three strong I.P. anomalies, with two located in the northwestern portion, and
one in the eastern portion of the property. They have been recommended as
diamond drill targets. See press release, November 14, 2013.


Michael Sutton, P.Geo., a Director of Rupert Resources Ltd., and a Qualified
Person ("QP"), has reviewed and approved the technical content of this news
