CAUTIONARY NOTICE

News releases, presentations and public commentary made by SolGold plc (the
"Company") and its Officers may contain certain statements and expressions of
belief, expectation or opinion which are forward looking statements, and which
relate, inter alia, to interpretations of exploration results to date and the
Company's proposed strategy, plans and objectives or to the expectations or
intentions of the Company's Directors, including the plan for developing the
Project currently being studied as well as the expectations of the Company as
to the forward price of copper. Such forward-looking and interpretative
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important
factors beyond the control of the Company that could cause the actual
performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from
such interpretations and forward-looking statements.

Accordingly, the reader should not rely on any interpretations or
forward-looking statements; and save as required by the exchange rules of the
TSX and LSE or by applicable laws, the Company does not accept any obligation
to disseminate any updates or revisions to such interpretations or
forward-looking statements. The Company may reinterpret results to date as the
status of its assets and projects changes with time expenditure, metals prices
and other affecting circumstances.

This release may contain "forward‑looking information". Forward‑looking
information includes, but is not limited to, statements regarding the
Company's plans for developing its properties. Generally, forward‑looking
information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such
as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget",
"scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not
anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or state
that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or
"will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved".

Forward‑looking information is subject to known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of
activity, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially
different from those expressed or implied by such forward‑looking
information, including but not limited to: transaction risks; general
business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties; future
prices of mineral prices; accidents, labour disputes and shortages and other
risks of the mining industry. Although the Company has attempted to identify
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors
that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended.  There
can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual
results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in
such statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from such forward-looking information include, but are not limited to, risks
relating to the ability of exploration activities (including assay results) to
accurately predict mineralization; errors in management's geological modelling
and/or mine development plan; capital and operating costs varying
significantly from estimates; the preliminary nature of visual assessments;
delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental, environmental
or other required approvals; uncertainties relating to the availability and
costs of financing needed in the future; changes in equity markets; inflation;
the global economic climate; fluctuations in commodity prices; the ability of
the Company to complete further exploration activities, including drilling;
delays in the development of projects; environmental risks; community and
non-governmental actions; other risks involved in the mineral exploration and
development industry; the ability of the Company to retain its key management
employees and skilled and experienced personnel; and those risks set out in
the Company's public documents filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca
(http://www.sedar.com) . Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance
on forward‑looking information. The Company does not undertake to update any
forward-looking information, except in accordance with applicable securities
laws.

The Company and its officers do not endorse, or reject or otherwise comment on
the conclusions, interpretations or views expressed in press articles or
third-party analysis.
