Re:       Registration Statement on Form S-4

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to JR Resources Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration statement on Form S-4 filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Registration Statement”, to which this opinion is an exhibit) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the proposed issuance of up to 75,332,787 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), and up to 7,616,374 shares of the Company’s common stock underlying warrants (together with the Shares, the “Securities”) in connection with the mergers contemplated by the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated September 10, 2021, as amended (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Dakota Territory Resource Corp., a Nevada corporation, the Company, DGC Merger Sub I Corp., a Nevada corporation, and DGC Merger Sub II LLC, a Nevada limited liability company.

We have examined such documents and have reviewed such questions of law as we have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of our opinions set forth below. In rendering our opinions set forth below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures and the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed the legal capacity for all purposes relevant hereto of all natural persons. As to questions of fact material to our opinions, we have relied upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and other representatives of the Company and of public officials.

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Securities, when issued, delivered and paid for pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, as contemplated by the Registration Statement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Our opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of Nevada.
