Colibri Announces Closing of First Tranche of Its Non-Brokered Private Placement and Sale of Its RC Drill Rig

September 6, 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, N.B., March 13, 2026 -- Colibri Resource Corporation (“Colibri” or the “Company”) (CBI: TSX-V) is pleased to report assay results from its maiden Phase 1 reconnaissance reverse circulation (“RC”) drill program completed at the Plomo claims within the Company’s 100% owned EP Gold Project located in the prolific Caborca Gold Belt of Sonora, Mexico, a region that hosts several significant gold deposits and mining operations including La Herradura and Noche Buena, which are operated by Fresnillo plc.  The Phase 1 program comprised 22 RC drill holes completed across the San Perfecto (20 holes) and Banco de Oro (2 holes) targets within the Plomo claim block, along with one RC drill hole completed at the West Sahuaro target located within the Evelyn claim block of the EP Gold Project. The program represents the first modern drill testing of multiple targets identified through geological mapping, geophysical interpretation and surface sampling across the Plomo claims. Highlights 7.5 m grading 2.92 g/t Au from 6 m, including 1.5 m grading 9.95 g/t Au (PL26-017) 30.0 m grading 0.73 g/t Au from 3 m, including 1.5 m grading 7.51 g/t Au (PL26-015) 30.0 m grading 0.45 g/t Au from surface, including 6 m grading 1.16 g/t Au (PL25-011) 19.5 m grading 0.44 g/t Au from 3 m, including 4.5 m grading 1.29 g/t Au (PL25-004) 1.5 m grading 12.55 g/t Au from surface (PL25-005) Gold mineralization intersected in 18 of 22 holes drilled in the Phase 1 program Gold mineralization intersected across an interpreted ~1.2 km mineralized structural corridor at the San Perfecto target Ian McGavney, President and CEO of Colibri Resource Corporation, commented : “We are extremely pleased with the results from our maiden drill program at the Plomo claims. Intersecting gold mineralization in 18 of 22 holes, including 7.5 metres grading 2.92 g/t gold and 30.0 metres grading 0.73 g/t gold from near surface, represents a strong start and provides compelling evidence of a broad mineralized system along the San Perfecto corridor. In addition, the results from Banco de Oro, where drilling intersected 30 metres grading 0.45 g/t gold including higher-grade intervals, further demonstrate the potential for multiple mineralized zones within the Plomo claim block. Together with the encouraging results from West Sahuaro, these results continue to strengthen our belief that the EP Gold Project hosts one or more significant gold system within the Caborca Gold Belt.” Table 1 – Significant Gold Intercepts – Plomo (0.10 g/t Au cutoff, maximum 3 m internal dilution; intervals are downhole lengths)

NEWS RELEASE - DIEPPE, N.B., January 15, 2026 -- Colibri Resource Corporation (“Colibri” or the “Company”) (CBI: TSX-V) is pleased to announce that it has resumed reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling in the Plomo area of its 100%-owned EP Gold Project in Sonora, Mexico. The current phase of work is designed to systematically evaluate priority structures and targets identified within the Plomo area, which has seen limited historical drilling, using a disciplined, first-pass exploration approach. Prior to the year-end break, the Company completed an initial phase of drilling at the San Perfecto and Banco de Oro targets consisting of eleven (11) RC drill holes totaling approximately 906 metres, with samples submitted for assay in December. The resumed program continues the first-pass evaluation of the San Perfecto target, while expanding testing to additional priority targets identified within the Plomo area. The Company plans to complete an additional six (6) to ten (10) RC drill holes as part of this phase of work. The Plomo area hosts multiple exploration targets within the broader EP Gold Project and has experienced minimal historical drilling. Colibri’s ongoing work at Plomo is part of a systematic, staged exploration strategy aimed at evaluating multiple targets across the area through a reverse circulation (RC) drilling program at the EP Gold Project. Samples from the Company’s December drilling campaign are currently at the laboratory. Based on current laboratory guidance, the Company anticipates that assay results from these initial drill holes may begin to be received in early February, subject to laboratory turnaround times. Results will be reported once received, compiled, and reviewed. “This phase of work represents a disciplined continuation of our first-pass exploration strategy at Plomo,” said Ian McGavney, President & CEO of Colibri Resource Corporation. “Our focus remains on systematically evaluating priority targets through careful execution and data collection, while maintaining operational momentum as we await results from the initial drill program.”
