RRS Rogue Resources Inc

Rogue Iron Ore Corp. (TSX VENTURE:RRS) ("Rogue" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that it has amended and closed the first tranche of its non-brokered
private placement announced on May 16, 2012. The amended private placement
consists of up to 10,000,000 units of the Company at a price of $0.12 per
Non-Flow Through Unit (the "Unit") and $0.15 per Flow Through Unit (the "FT
Unit"). The Company has raised an aggregate of $438,250 through the issuance of
2,116,667 Units and 1,228,329 FT Units. 


"The Company is in an enviable position, as many of our catalysts are already
underway and funded. In the near term, investors can expect to see assay results
from drilling at Radio Hill and metallurgical test work that has been conducted.
Once all assays have been received from the recently completed 10,500 meter
drill program, the Company will begin calculating an updated resource estimate,"
commented Company President and CEO, Stephen de Jong. "In addition, Rogue
shareholders will be receiving shares from the spin-out gold company created to
capitalize on the combination of our existing land position with a significant
gold discovery by Rogue's neighbor, Rio Tinto. Management remains committed to
advancing the Radio Hill Iron Ore Project and at the same time unlocking
unrealized value in the Company's other assets through joint ventures, asset
sales, spin-outs and other deal structures."


Each Unit consists of one common share and one half of one non-transferable
common share purchase warrant. Each Flow Through Unit consists of one flow
through common share and one half of one non-transferable common share purchase
warrant. Each whole warrant, whether acquired as part of a Unit or a Flow
Through Unit, will entitle the holder to purchase one common share at an
exercise price of $0.20 for 18 months following completion of the offering.


The private placement and any modifications to it are subject to compliance with
applicable securities laws and final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange. The
Company may pay finders' fees in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture
Exchange.


The proceeds from the issuance of the Flow-Through Units will be used to fund
exploration expenditures on the Company's Canadian mineral projects and will
qualify as Canadian exploration expenses (as defined in the Income Tax Act). The
Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering primarily for
expenditures on the Company's Radio Hill Property and for general working
capital.


Brokers are being paid a commission of 7% in cash and 7% in brokers' warrants.

In respect of its relationship with its market maker, Venture Liquidity
Providers, the Company wishes to clarify that both the funds and the shares
required for the market making are provided by W.D. Latimer. The fee paid by the
Company to Venture Liquidity is for services only.


Project and Company Profile: 

Radio Hill is a taconite (magnetite) iron formation located 85 southwest of
Timmins and is accessed by Highway 101. Rogue's iron ore project is unlike other
iron plays as it is on top of exceptional infrastructure. The property is
transected by a heavy gauge portion of the CN Rail mainline at the active
Kukatush rail siding. There is power and water within kilometers of the present
drilling. Original exploration work at Radio Hill was conducted in the 1960s,
when iron ore prices were less than one fifth of what they are today. Over the
past 50 years little to no iron exploration work took place until Rogue acquired
both the historical resource and the surrounding 12,000 hectares of highly
prospective ground including the 12km Nat River Iron Formation. In May, 2012,
the Company announced completion of 10,500 meters of drilling and upon receiving
all assays will begin calculating the first resource estimate done on the
project since the 1960s.
