BENTON TO RECEIVE $300,000 SHARE PAYMENT FROM RENEGADE GOLD FOR THE PANAMA LAKE GOLD PROJECT IN THE RED LAKE MINING CAMP

Benton Resources Inc. has been notified by Renegade Gold Inc. that Renegade will issue common shares to the company in satisfaction of its obligation to make a cash payment of $300,000, pursuant to the terms of the option agreement (as defined below) whereby Renegade had the right to acquire the remaining 30-per-cent interest (for a total interest of 100 per cent) in the Panama Lake property (see Renegade's news releases dated July 13, 2022, and Nov. 4, 2022). Renegade intends to issue Benton a total of 769,230 common shares at a deemed price of 39 cents per common share in lieu of paying $300,000, as payment for the third option as defined in an option agreement dated Oct. 22, 2019, in respect of the Panama Lake property. The issuance of common shares is subject to the receipt of all required approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The common shares are subject to a statutory four-month hold period.

The Panama Lake gold project is located approximately 80 kilometres from, and on the same structural trend as, Kinross Gold's Great Bear deposit, and expands Renegade's dominant contiguous foothold along the Confederation belt by a further 9,900 hectares. Benton will retain a 2-per-cent net smelter royalty on the project.
