2024 News Releases.

06 Sep, 2024
Dieppe, New Brunswick --(Newsfile Corp. - September 6, 2024) - Colibri Resource Corporation (TSXV: CBI) ("Colibri" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, further to its news release of August 23, 2024, it has closed the first tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") of units ("Units") for aggregate gross proceeds of $305,500. Each Unit consists of one (1) common share (a "Common Share") and one (1) common share purchase warrant (the Warrants) of the Company. Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional Common Share of the Company at a price of C$0.075 for a period of 24 months following issuance. Certain insiders of the Company have acquired an aggregate of 550,000 Units in the Offering for gross proceeds of $27,500. Participation by insiders in the private placement constitutes a related party transaction as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. This participation is exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the units subscribed for by the insiders, nor the consideration for the units paid by such insiders, exceeds 25% of the Company's market capitalization. The Common Shares and Warrants are subject to a statutory hold period expiring on the date that is four months and one day after closing. The Company anticipates completing a second tranche of the Offering within the next few weeks. The Offering, including the terms of the Offering, received the conditional approval of the Exchange prior to closing but is subject to the final approval of the Exchange. The net proceeds of the offering will be used for exploration expenses at the Company's highly prospective precious metals projects in Mexico, including the Pilar gold project and the EP gold project as well as for working capital. The Company also wishes to announce that it has sold its RC Drill Rig to a private company in Hermosillo Mexico for a total consideration of USD $395,000 which consisted of cash and drill credits. A portion of the proceeds is expected to be applied to an upcoming drilling program at the EP Gold Project where the Company intends to complete its first drilling program at the high priority San Perfecto target. The San Perfecto target area is characterized by variably to strongly altered volcanic and intrusive rocks and has a mineralized footprint of approximately 1,250m by 700m which remains open to the southeast. A total of 616 samples are reported from the San Perfecto target surface area (102 by Colibri and 514 historical) of which 315, approximately 50 per cent, have returned values greater than 0.10 g/t Au and 213, approximately 35 per cent, have returned assay values greater than 0.25 g/t Au. Ninety-one samples (approximately 15 per cent of the total) have returned Au assays greater than 1.00 g/t with the highest grades, up to 58.9 g/t Au being associated with strong silicification and veins in faults zones. A number of historical (artisanal) pits have been developed in the San Perfecto area including a larger production pit with a surface opening approximately of 35 m by 30 m. Only two exploration holes have been historically drilled in the area and both intersected significant mineralization. Supported by interpretation of magnetic and IP data sets, the Company has interpreted the San Perfecto area as being indicative of a well-developed, high-level orogenic gold system with the potential to host economically significant mineralization.

NEWS RELEASE - Dieppe, NB., August 22, 2024 - Colibri Resource Corporation (TSX.V:CBI) (OTC:CRUCF) ("Colibri" or the "Company") is pleased to report the results of geological mapping and outcrop sampling recently completed on the Plomo property at the EP gold project located in the Caborca Gold Belt, NW Sonora. Highlights include outcrop grab samples which returned values up to 2.99 grams per tonne (“g/t”) Au which extend the footprint of surface mineralization at the San Perfecto target approximately 350 meters (“m”) and samples from La Culebra target area that returned values up to 4.64 g/t Au occurring over a strike length of approximately 650 m. Ian McGavney, President & CEO of Colibri commented: “ The southwest part of the San Perfecto area is on the books as a priority drill target for Colibri. We are extremely pleased with the results of the recent mapping and sampling at San Perfecto which expanded the area of known mineralization and thereby the scope and potential of our drill target. The work at La Culebra has confirmed historical sampling and demonstrates discovery potential over a 650 m strike length which remains open. We are very encouraged by the common copper occurrences at La Culebra. Reporting these new results from our most advanced, highest priority target and from one of our earlier stage targets clearly demonstrates the significant discovery potential of the large EP property position.” San Perfecto Target Work recently completed at the San Perfecto target area includes geological mapping and the collection and assay of 29 outcrop grab samples. Results include 14 samples which returned values greater that 0.1 g/t Au, including 9 samples greater than 0.5 g/t Au and 6 samples greater than 1.0 g/t Au, that define a cluster of mineralized outcrops which extend the footprint of known surface mineralization at San Perfecto approximately 350 m to the east-southeast. The footprint of mineralization at San Perfecto is now approximately 1,250 m by 700m and remains open to the southeast (see figure 1). The mineralization is hosted by moderately to strongly foliated and altered diorite. Alteration consists of strong silicification and sericite with disseminated and oxidized fine grained pyrite. Quartz micro-veinlets are locally recognized in the higher-grade samples. The diorite host rock and style of mineralization is continuous for approximately 1 km to the northeast at the San Perfecto target. The domain of foliated, altered, and mineralized diorite is coincident with a northeast magnetic low trend and overlies a strong apparent chargeability anomaly. The San Perfecto target area is characterized by variably to strongly altered volcanic and intrusive rocks. Anomalous to high grade gold mineralization is associated with fine grained pyrite bearing altered rocks, altered rocks with veinlets and vein stockworks, and with larger veins hosted by fault zones. A total of 616 samples are reported from the San Perfecto Target surface area (102 by Colibri and 514 historical) of which 315, approximately 50%, have returned values greater than 0.10 g/t Au and 213, approximately 35%, have returned assay values greater than 0.25 g/t Au. Ninety-one samples (approximately 15% of the total) have returned Au assays greater than 1.00 g/t with the highest grades, up to 58.9 g/t Au being associated with strong silicification and veins in faults zones. A number of historical (artisanal) pits have been developed in the San Perfecto area including a larger production pit with a surface opening approximately of 35 m x 30 m. Only two exploration holes have been drilled in the area and both have intersected significant mineralization. Supported by interpretation of magnetic and IP data sets, the Company has interpreted the San Perfecto area as being indicative of a well developed high level orogenic gold system with the potential to host economically significant mineralization. The San Perfecto is a top priority target on the EP project.

NEWS RELEASE - Dieppe, NB. August 13 th , 2024 - Colibri Resource Corporation (CBI-TSXV) ("Colibri" or the "Company") is pleased to report that the co-owner of its Pilar Gold & Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico, Tocvan Ventures (51% interest) has released an update regarding the plans for the next phase(s) of resource definition drilling and outlines a permitting and operations strategy for a pilot facility at the jointly held Pilar Main Zone. Tocvan Pilar News Release – August 13 th , 2024: (Partnership Relevant Excerpts) Highlights: Upcoming Core Drill Program at Pilar Main Zone Scheduled for September Start Outlines Plans for Resource Drilling with Core and RC CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / August 13, 2024 / Tocvan Ventures Corp. (the "Company") is pleased to provide an update from its gold-silver projects in mine-friendly Sonora, Mexico. The Company will refer to the consolidated area that includes the Pilar Main Zone and the adjacent 22 km 2 as Gran Pilar. This signifies the broader scale project size the Company is focusing on as it advances to a maiden resource at the Pilar Main Zone as well as defining large-scale targets beyond. Based on management's strong belief in the project's potential, the Company is outlining a permitting and operations strategy for a pilot facility at Pilar. The facility would underpin a robust test mine scenario with aims to process up to 50,000 tonnes of material. Timelines and budget are being prepared with the aim of moving forward with the development early in 2025. With gold prices hitting all-time highs, the Company believes the onsite test mine will provide key economic parameters and showcase the mineral potential of the area. In 2023, the Company completed an offsite bulk sample that produced important data showcasing the potential to recover both gold and silver through a variety of methods including heap leach, gravity and agitated leach (see August 22, 2023 news release for more details). Also, preparations are being made for the next phases of core and RC drilling that will focus on resource definition. Between 1,200 to 2,000 meters of core drilling are being considered along with 1,700 to 2,500 meters of RC drilling before the end of the year. Core drilling will focus on building a robust geological model across Pilar with emphasis on the Main Zone. RC drilling will concentrate on additional infill and step-out targeting across the Main Zone, North Hill and 4-T trends. Upon completion of drilling the Company anticipates a maiden resource estimate will be finalized for the initial Pilar Main Zone and adjacent trends providing an initial step of showcasing the full potential of the project area. Brodie Sutherland Tocvan CEO states: "We are also preparing for the next phases of drilling which will include important core drilling through our Main Zone and other prospective trends. The last core program we completed in 2022 was a huge success, giving us a better understanding of the host rocks and the pervasive alteration and brecciation one would expect from a robust mineralized system. Drilling completed before the end of the year will go into a maiden resource estimate for Pilar, a starting point for establishing initial resources for development. Along with these preparations the Company is evaluating a pilot mine facility to process material at site. A logical step-forward as we showcase the accessibility of gold and silver whilst taking advantage of current market prices for the commodities. The Company anticipates necessary equipment setup and permitting can be completed by early 2025, with the objective of processing up to 50,000 tonnes of material directly from Pilar. A key differentiator for the Company and project. Our core objective is to unlock the potential of the greater project area while advancing mine development.” “The Company maintains a positive outlook on the future of mining in Mexico and looks forward to advancing its initiatives of transitioning to producer. Taking full advantage of the excellent infrastructure and talented work force Sonora provides." Brodie A. Sutherland, CEO for Tocvan Ventures Corp. and a qualified person ("QP") as defined by Canadian National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this release.

Colibri owns a 49% interest of the Pilar Gold & Silver Project. Highlights from Tocvan Pilar News Release – June 6 th , 2024: Infill Drilling on Main Zone Trend Hits Several Zones Expanding Resource Potential JES-24-73, 16.8 meters of 0.8 g/t Au and 19 g/t Ag Including Polymetallic Zone of 4.6 meters of 2.2 g/t Au, 49 g/t Ag, 0.46% Cu and 1.48% Zn Also, 3.1 meters of 0.9 g/t Au, 10 g/t Ag and 3.2% Zn Also, 10.7 meters of 0.8 g/t Au and 2 g/t Ag And, 3.0 meters of 3.8 g/t Au and 4.7 g/t Ag Within 152.5-meter anomalous zone from surface averaging 0.3 g/t Au and 3 g/t Ag JES-24-84, 10.7 meters of 0.6 g/t Au and 3 g/t Ag Including 1.5 meters of 3.3 g/t Au, 14 g/t Ag and 0.67% Cu Within 97.6-meter anomalous zone from 48.8-meter depth of 0.1 g/t Au and 1 g/t Ag Large Step-out Exploration Drilling Hits Best Results to Date in Southeast Targets, Expands 4-T Trend 400m SE JES-24-87, Including 0.6 g/t Au and 7 g/t Ag and 0.6 g/t Au and 15 g/t Ag both over 1.5 meters Within 53.4 meters of 0.1 g/t Au and 2 g/t Ag Six Holes Released, All Six Intersect Mineralization Additional Results Pending. Over 2,700 meters Drilled to Date in 23 Holes For full details please see the Tocvan Ventures news release dated June 6 th , 2024 below: Calgary, Alberta – June 6, 2024 – Tocvan Ventures Corp. (the “Company”) (CSE: TOC; OTCQB: TCVNF; FSE: TV3), is pleased to announce drill results from its 2024 Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program at its road accessible Pilar Gold-Silver project in mine-friendly Sonora, Mexico. Results today highlight four infill holes along the Main Zone Trend, three of which are located on the northwest extent of the trend. Two exploration holes along the far southeast extent of the 4-T trend are also included in today’s results. Infill holes are highlighted by drillhole JES-24-73 which returned four distinct zones of mineralization that include two zones of high copper and zinc values, including 4.6 meters of 2.2 g/t Au, 49 g/t Ag, 0.46% Cu and 1.48% Zn (results are summarized in Table 1) Anomalous mineralization extends from surface to 152.5 meters vertical depth averaging 0.3 g/t Au and 3 g/t Ag across all four mineralized sections. Infill hole JES-24-84 returned 10.7 meters of 0.6 g/t Au and 3 g/t Ag within a broad anomalous zone of 97.6 meters of 0.1 g/t Au starting from 48.8 meters vertical depth. It is important to note both holes represent the extension of the Main Zone along the edges, the continuation of mineralization is a positive sign for further resource advancement. As for exploration drilling, two holes 400 meters southeast along the 4-T Trend have returned values indicating mineralization continues along this corridor. This is highlighted by JES-24-87 which returned 53.4 meters of 0.1 g/t Au and 2 g/t Ag, the broadest zone of gold-silver mineralization recorded in exploration drilling to date and over 700 meters from the Main Zone. Over 2,700 meters have been drilled to date for the 2024 program. Results for eight drill holes are currently pending analysis (green squares on Figure 1). Drilling is ongoing at Pilar. “The results today give us numerous reasons to be excited about the potential of Pilar.” commented Brodie Sutherland, CEO. “Not only are we continuing to increase the resource potential on the outer edges of the Main Zone but have successfully hit significant mineralization in two exploration holes 700 meters away. With all good exploration, it takes time to focus in on key targets, the latest results are providing us with the evidence needed to further evaluate the southeast extent of the several known trends. The polymetallic results returned at the Main Zone are likely related to breccia phases encountered in previous core drilling (JES-22-61) 40m to the northwest, where elevated gold, silver and zinc were recorded. The presence of multiple breccia and vein phases at Pilar is what makes it an attractive target, it is a complex and robust system that we feel is just starting to take shape. In addition, the interest from a major producer in the greater expansion area potential is a clear sign we are taking the right steps to advance the area further and getting the attention we feel the project deserves.”

NEWS RELEASE - Dieppe, NB. May 23rd, 2024 - Colibri Resource Corporation (CBI-TSXV) ("Colibri" or the "Company") is pleased to report that the co-owner of its Pilar Gold & Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico, Tocvan Ventures (51% interest) has announced the results from five holes drilled in the ongoing Phase 4, RC drill program. Hole JES-24-79 was drilled in the North Hill Trend area and is reported to be the second-best gold intersection to date outside of the Main Zone. Colibri owns a 49% interest in the Pilar Gold & Silver Project. Highlights from Tocvan Pilar News Release – May 23rd, 2024 : Drilling Intersects 42.7 meters of 1.0 g/t Au, 22.9 meters from Surface in Drillhole JES-24-79 Including 3.1 meters of 10.9 g/t Au, 38.1 meters from surface Second Best Intersect Outside of Main Zone to Date, 300 meters Northeast of Main Zone 300 meters west-northwest of Previously Released JES-24-77, 56.4m of 1.0 g/t Au and 1 g/t Ag Continues to Build Resource Potential Along North Hill Corridor Anomalous Exploration Results Provide Key Indications to Trend Extensions Additional Results Pending For full details please see the Tocvan Ventures news release dated May 23rd, 2024 below: Calgary, Alberta – May 23, 2024 – Tocvan Ventures Corp. (the “Company”) (CSE: TOC; OTCQB: TCVNF; FSE: TV3), is pleased to announce drill results from its 2024 Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program at its road accessible Pilar Gold-Silver project in mine-friendly Sonora, Mexico. Results today are highlighted by drillhole JES-24-79 which returned 42.7 meters of 1.0 g/t Au from 22.9 meters vertical depth, including 3.1 meters of 10.9 g/t Au. Anomalous gold values averaging 50.3 meters of 0.8 g/t Au was encountered in the hole. A high-grade center to the mineralized zone returned 10.9 g/t Au and 2 g/t Ag over 3.1 meters, including 1.5 meters of 21.4 g/t Au. Like the Main Zone, the North Hill trend is exposed at surface along a rounded ridge top, allowing the potential for a low strip ratio during early development. The hole tested near-surface mineralization and was stopped at 125.1 meters, mineralization at North Hill remains open along trend and to the east. In addition, four exploration holes on the northeastern flanks of known mineralization (JES-24-78, 80, 81 and 82) are also included in this release. Results for six drill holes are currently pending analysis. Drilling is ongoing at Pilar. “The results today support the significant resource potential beyond the Main Zone.” commented Brodie Sutherland, CEO. “Today’s results hit one of the best holes ever off the North Hill Trend providing added confidence in identifying additional high-grade mineralization. Much of the trend has yet to be tested and remains open for expansion. The proximity to parallel trends bodes well for tying together a large bulk tonnage target. Early exploration results are showing great indications a larger robust mineralized system is present. With each phase we are get closer to identifying new mineralization close to surface that can be added to our maiden resource estimate. As drilling continues we look forward to updating our shareholders on additional results.”

(the " Company ") (CSE: TOC; OTCQB: TCVNF; FSE: TV3), is pleased to announce first drill results from its 2024 Reverse Circulation (RC) drill program at its road accessible Pilar Gold-Silver project in mine-friendly Sonora, Mexico. A total of 1,825.4 meters has been drilled to date in 15 drillholes. Results today are highlighted by drillhole JES-24-77 which returned 56.4 meters of 1.0 g/t Au from 18.3 meters vertical depth, including 9.2 meters of 5.3 g/t Au . The entire length of the hole returned anomalous gold values averaging 76.3 meters of 0.8 g/t Au . A high-grade center to the mineralized zone returned 5.3 g/t Au and 3 g/t Ag over 9.2 meters , including 1.5 meters of 26.7 g/t Au . Like the Main Zone, the 4-T trend is exposed at surface along a rounded ridge top, allowing the potential for a low strip ratio during early development. The hole tested near-surface mineralization and was stopped at 76.3 meters, mineralization at 4-T remains open at depth. Results for eleven drill holes are currently pending analysis, including holes further northwest, along the 4-T trend. "We are extremely excited with the results today highlighting the additional resource potential that exists along the several parallel trends to the Main Zone which we believe can be tied together into a sizable area." commented Brodie Sutherland, CEO. "Today's results are the best from the 4-T Trend to date and rank as a top five drill intersect in Tocvan's history of drilling at Pilar. Gold mineralization intersected in hole JES-24-77 is close to surface, projecting to workings exposed along a low rolling ridgeline much like the Main Zone. This allows for low-strip ratio potential in future mine development, reducing costs for extraction. We are confident the 4-T Trend will continue to develop into another key resource area for Pilar, being just 400 meters from the heart of our Main Zone. Part of our bulk sample was extracted from 4-T adding to that confidence of resource viability. More results from the trend are pending. As for our exploration drill targets, it is still early in testing these areas and the data available suggests more work is needed to fully evaluate and target mineralization. Surface mapping and geochemistry strongly suggests the known trends extend to the southeast and northwest, while new trends have yet to be tested. Recent sampling across the expansion area supports this thesis, indicating much more is to be uncovered."

NEWS RELEASE - Dieppe, NB. April 3rd, 2024 - Colibri Resource Corporation (CBI-TSXV) ("Colibri" or the "Company") is pleased to report that its partner Tocvan Ventures (CSE:TOC) has announced that infill drilling has commenced in the Main Zone at the advanced exploration stage Pilar Gold and Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico. Colibri holds a 49% interest in the Pilar Gold & Silver Project. Please see select excerpts from Tocvan’s news release below: Tocvan News Release: (April 3, 2024) – Brodie A. Sutherland, P.Geo. reports: “CALGARY, AB / ACCESSWIRE / April 3, 2024 / Tocvan Ventures Corp. (the " Company ") (CSE:TOC)(OTCQB:TCVNF)(FSE:TV3), is pleased to announce the much awaited restart of drilling at its road accessible Pilar gold-silver project in the mine-friendly State of Sonora, Mexico. The Company has been busy reviewing all past data with an independent resource professional to determine the most effective use of drill meters for the upcoming campaign. Work completed has outlined 7,000 meters of drilling required within the Pilar concessions held along with minority partner, Colibri Resources. This includes, 4,000 meters of infill drilling within known areas of mineralization and 3,000 meters of step-out and exploration drilling on the peripherals of drilled mineralization and/or strong surface geochemistry indicating highly prospective targets. All proposed drilling is fully permitted. The outcome of the proposed drilling will go into the definition of a maiden resource estimate for the Pilar Main Zone, providing an important building block for the Company. The first drill hole will follow-up on JES-22-62, which returned 108.6m of 0.8 g/t Au and 3 g/t Ag. The drill rig mobilized to site April 1st and began drilling hole JES-24-73 on April 2nd. The Company will update as drilling progresses. "We are excited to report the drill is back onsite and turning at Pilar." commented Brodie Sutherland, CEO. "It's been nearly two years since we last drilled at Pilar, with the previous drill program identifying new areas of mineralization to the east and southeast of Pilar's Main Zone. We now look to continue to expand the overall footprint while we build towards a maiden resource at Pilar. With gold prices hitting all time highs, we feel this is the right time to aggressively advance our projects." About the Pilar Property The Pilar Gold-Silver property has returned some of the region’s best drill results. Coupled with encouraging gold and silver recovery results from metallurgical test work, Pilar is primed to be a potential near-term producer. Pilar is interpreted as a structurally controlled low-sulphidation epithermal system hosted in andesite rocks. Initially three primary zones of mineralization were identified on the original property from historic surface work and drilling and are referred to as the Main Zone, North Hill and 4-T. Each trend remains open to the southeast and north and new parallel zones have been discovered. Structural features and zones of mineralization within the structures follow an overall NW-SE trend of mineralization. Mineralization extends along a 1.2-km trend, only half of that trend has been drill tested so far.

NEWS RELEASE - Dieppe, NB., March 21st, 2024 - Colibri Resource Corporation (TSX.V:CBI) (OTC:CRUCF) ("Colibri" or the "Company") announces that Tocvan Ventures Corp. (“Tocvan”) has elected not to exercise its Right of First Refusal to purchase 49% ownership in the Pilar Gold and Silver Project (“Pilar”) held by Colibri. As per the original agreement, the two companies will now form a joint venture (“JV”) on a 51 % Tocvan / 49% Colibri basis to advance the project. “ The Pilar Gold and Silver Project has advanced significantly since we entered into the option and joint venture agreement in September 2019. We believe that the Tocvan team has done an excellent job in creating substantial project value and has positioned Pilar to potentially become a low cost gold producer in the near term. The head grade of the bulk sample reported in May 2022 of 1.9 g/t Au is very encouraging as are the recovery factors for gold and silver attained from various metallurgical tests. Further potential expansion of known mineralization is indicated by mineralized trends that are open to the southeast and by detailed interpretation of geophysical surveys completed in 2020 which indicate the potential continuity of controlling structures at depth. We are extremely excited about the potential opportunities that Colibri now has on the table for its 49% ownership at Pilar. ” said Ian McGavney, President/ CEO of Colibri. About the Pilar Project Agreement and JV The Pilar Gold & Silver Project is an advanced exploration project located near the town of Suaqui Grande in central Sonora, Mexico. In September 2018, the two Companies entered into a 5 year option work one agreement whereby Colibri granted Tocvan the right to earn 51% ownership of Pilar by: issuing a total of 5 million shares of Tocvan to Colibri, completing a total of $2 million of exploration expenses, making cash payments totalling $400,000. The agreement also granted Tocvan, upon earning its 51% interest in Pilar, a six month exclusivity period to purchase the remaining 49% owned Colibri by paying CAD$2 million and granting Colibri a 2% net smelter royalty (“NSR”). Tocvan successfully completed its Earn-In of 51% ownership of Pilar on September 18th, 2023, triggering the exclusivity clause which expired at the end of business on March 18th, 2024. As a result, 49% ownership of Pilar remains with Colibri and the Companies will now form a JV to advance the project towards production.
