And Provides Clarification With Respect to the Previously Filed “Preliminary Economic Assessment Ikkari and Pahtavaara – Finland”

Final Short Form Prospectus Accessible on SEDAR+

Rupert Resources Ltd. (TSX:RUP) ("Rupert" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, in connection with its previously announced "bought deal" public financing, it has filed a final short form prospectus dated July 26, 2024 (the "Final Prospectus") to qualify the distribution of 6,983,300 common shares of the Company (the "Shares") at a price of $3.58 per Share (the "Offering Price") and up to an additional 1,047,400 Shares at the Offering Price to be issued upon exercise of an over-allotment option, the particulars of which are further described in the Final Prospectus (the "Offering"). Closing is expected on or about August 1, 2024, and is subject to regulatory approval, including that of the Toronto Stock Exchange.

The Company will also offer in a concurrent private placement approximately 1,800,000 Shares on substantially the same terms as the Offering (the "Private Placement").

Access to the Final Prospectus and any amendment is provided in accordance with securities legislation relating to procedures for providing access to a short form prospectus and any amendment. The Final Prospectus is accessible on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. An electronic or paper copy of the Final Prospectus and any amendment may be obtained, without charge, from Cormark Securities Inc. by phone at (416) 362-7485 or email at ecm@cormark.com or BMO Capital Markets by phone at 905-791-3151, Ext. 4312 or email at torbramwarehouse@datagroup.ca by providing the contact with an email address or address, as applicable.

Prospective investors under the Final Prospectus or otherwise are cautioned that the Company's previously filed technical report covering the Rupert Lapland Project Area entitled "Preliminary Economic Assessment Ikkari and Pahtavaara - Finland" (the "PEA"), with an effective date of March 10, 2023, has been replaced and superseded in its entirety by the Company's subsequently filed technical report updating the mineral resource estimate at the Company's Ikkari discovery entitled "Updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Ikkari Project - Finland" (the "Updated Ikkari MRE"), with an effective date of December 12, 2023. The Updated Ikkari MRE is the only current technical report of the Company and is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Company has initiated a pre-feasibility study (the "PFS") based on the Updated Ikkari MRE, which is anticipated to be completed in the fourth calendar quarter of 2024. The PEA and all references to the PEA in the documents incorporated by reference in the Final Prospectus have been explicitly carved out of, and do not form a part of, the Final Prospectus. The previously disclosed PEA is no longer current and should not be relied upon by potential investors under the Final Prospectus or otherwise in making an investment decision in respect of the Company. The information contained in this paragraph was requested to be disclosed by the staff of the Ontario Securities Commission in connection with a staff review.

The Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration.
