Colibri And Partner – Core Drilling Returns 1.6 G/T Gold Over 36.6 Meters From Surface Which Includes High-Grade Of 15.2 G/T Gold Over 1.2 Meters And 5.8 G/T Gold Over 3 Meters At El Pilar Gold Project

(MENAFN– Newsfile Corp)
Dieppe, New Brunswick–(Newsfile Corp. – March 19, 2025) – Colibri Resource Corporation (TSXV: CBI) (“Colibri” or the “Company”) is pleased to share the assay results from the next two holes drilled in its recent 10 hole diamond drilling program (1,167.5 metres) at the El Pilar Gold & Silver Project in Sonora Mexico. Colibri holds 49% interest of the El Pilar along side its partner Tocvan Ventures, which holds a 51% ownership in this advanced stage exploration project. Tocvan is the operator of the El Pilar.

“We are very happy with the assay results from hole JES-25-105. The hole is highlighted by 36.3 metres of 1.6 g/t gold (starting at surface and is contained within a longer intercept of 66 metres at 1.0 g/t gold). These are extremely favorable grades to encounter when looking for an open pitable gold deposit in Sonora and confirms the site as a source of moderate grade material for the planned 50,000 tonne test mine/bulk sample . We look forward to releasing the results from the remaining 6 holes of this program in due course as the data is received.” commented, Colibri President & CEO Ian McGavney.

Tocvan – News Release – March 19 th , 2025

Highlights:

  • Main Zone Infill Provides Upgrade to Historic Drilling

    • 1.6 g/t Au over 36.3 meters from surface within 66 meters of 1.0 g/t Au (Hole JES-25-105)

      • including 15.2 g/t Au over 1.2 meters, from 35.1 meters depth

      • and 5.8 g/t Au over 3.0 meters, from 9.0 meters depth

    • Mineralization from surface to 97.4 meters averaging 0.7 g/t Au

    • Results Pending for Six Additional Holes

Calgary, Alberta March 19, 2025 – Tocvan Ventures Corp. (CSE: TOC) (OTCQB: TCVNF) (WKN: TV3/A2PE64) (the ” Company “), is pleased to announce results the latest core drilling at the Gran Pilar Gold Silver Project in mine-friendly Sonora, Mexico. Ten core drillholes totalling 1,167.5 meters were completed earlier this year within the majority owned (51%) Main Zone held in partnership with Colibri Resource Corp. Today’s results are highlighted by 1.6 g/t Au over 36.3 meters from surface, including 15.2 g/t Au over 1.2 and 5.8 g/t Au over 3.0 meters, starting from 9.0 meters vertical depth (JES-25-105). Mineralization correlates with at surface mineralization and lies within a broader anomalous zone drilled that averages 0.7 g/t Au over 97.4 meters . The result from JES-25-105, is a notable improvement from local historic drilling that returned 76.6 meters of 0.5 g/t Au (hole J-7) and 83.8m of 0.5 g/t Au (hole JESP-10), both drilled vertical from surface. To the southeast 100 meters, core hole JES-25-106 returned anomalous mineralization from surface to 122.2 meters depth with the most significant interval returning 3.45 meters of 0.4 g/t Au. Mineralization is known to weaken through this zone. More testing is required to determine the orientation of higher-grade zones known to occur in the area. Results for four core drillholes have now been released, results are pending for the remaining six holes.

“Infill drilling through the Main Zone is identifying precisely where we can source moderate to high-grade ore during pilot and full-scale mining.” commented, CEO Brodie Sutherland. “Positioned directly below surface trenching, we have a high degree of confidence in the extension of significant mineralization at Pilar. We are excited to evaluate the results for the remaining core holes as they will provide insight towards future development along parallel trends across the property. All information will be fed into our planned maiden resource estimate that will look to outline the resource potential across the Main Zone, an important milestone leading towards unlocking the full property potential.”

TENAZ ENERGY CORP. ANNOUNCES 2024 YEAR-END RESULTS

(MENAFN– Newsfile Corp)
CALGARY, ALBERTA–(Newsfile Corp. – March 12, 2025) – Tenaz energy Corp. (“Tenaz”, “We”, “Our”, “Us” or the “Company”) (TSX: TNZ) is pleased to announce financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.

The related audited consolidated financial statements, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the year ended December 31, 2024 and Annual Information Form (“AIF”) as of December 31, 2024, are available on SEDAR+ at and on Tenaz’s website at .

HIGHLIGHTS

Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2024 Results

  • Production volumes averaged 2,814 boe/d(1) in Q4 2024, up 11% from Q3 2024, reflecting contributions from two new Ellerslie wells at Leduc-Woodbend (“LWB”). One of the wells was brought on production in mid-September and the second in mid-November. Current gross rate from the two wells is approximately 360 boe/d (83% oil).

  • Production volumes averaged 2,688 boe/d for full year 2024, a 10% increase from full-year 2023 levels. Production was higher due to continued organic growth at LWB in Canada.

  • Funds flow from operations(2) (“FFO”) for the fourth quarter was $8.3 million ($0.30/share(2)), 147% higher than Q3 2024 due to higher production and an adjustment to prior-period tax returns, partially offset by higher operating expenses in the Netherlands. FFO for full-year 2024 was $24.5 million ($0.90/share), 15% lower than in 2023 driven by lower natural gas prices, higher operating expenses in the Netherlands, and higher transaction costs.

  • Net loss for full-year 2024 was $7.7 million ($0.28/share), as compared to net income of $26.5 million ($0.97/share) in 2023. The decrease in net income was primarily driven by increased transaction costs and transition activities for the acquisition of NAM Offshore B.V. (“NOBV”) and a $22.8 million gain on acquisition recorded in 2023.

  • We ended 2024 with positive adjusted working capital(2) (current assets less current liabilities and long-term debt) of $10.0 million, a decrease from $49.3 million in 2023 due primarily to the payment of a $34.0 million deposit for the acquisition of NOBV. As of year-end 2024, we hold $180.2 million of cash and restricted cash.

  • During 2024, we deployed $1.2 million for our Normal Course Issuer Bid (“NCIB”) program, repurchasing and retiring 0.3 million shares at an average price of $3.73/share. In February 2025, we renewed our NCIB and obtained approval to purchase up to 2.5 million additional shares. Since the beginning of the NCIB program in Q3 2022, we have retired 2.1 million common shares (7.4% of basic common shares) at an average cost of $2.98/share.

  • During 2024, Tenaz delivered a total shareholder return of 257%, placing TNZ at the top of the 57 oil and gas companies listed on the TSX and in the top one-third of one percent of TSX-listed issuers in all sectors.

Corporate Updates

  • On July 18, 2024, we announced the execution of a definitive agreement to purchase NOBV. On August 5, the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets completed its review of the transaction and cleared it to proceed as planned. We are now conducting transition activities with a target of closing and assuming operatorship by mid-2025 or earlier. Free cash flow occurring between the effective date of January 1, 2024 and the closing date will be reflected as a reduction of the purchase price.

  • On November 14, 2024, we closed a $140 million private placement offering (the “Offering”) of Senior Unsecured Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”). The Notes are non-callable for the first two-and-one-half years, bear interest at 12% per annum, and were priced at par. This long-term debt financing provides significant liquidity to pursue our international M&A strategy, as well as funding the closing of the NOBV acquisition.

Year-End 2024 Reserves (3)

  • Proved Developed Producing (“PDP”) reserves increased 3.5%, including a 5.3% increase in Canada through organic activities, reflecting a corporate reserve replacement ratio of 113%. PDP reserves at year-end totaled 3.8 million boe.

  • Total Proved (“1P”) reserves increased 10%, reflecting a reserve replacement ratio of 192%. 1P reserves at year-end totaled 10.1 million boe.

  • Total Proved plus Probable (“2P”) reserves increased 14%, reflecting a reserve replacement ratio of 306%. 2P reserves at year-end totaled 16.6 million boe.

  • PDP Finding and Developing (“F&D”)4 costs (including future development capital (“FDC”)) were $14.21/boe, resulting in a 2.0 organic recycle ratio based on our 2024 operating netback(2) of $28.96/boe. F&D costs (including FDC) were $17.74 and $14.49 at the 1P and 2P levels, generating organic recycle ratios of 1.6 and 2.0, respectively.

  • PDP Finding, Developing and Acquisition (“FD&A”)4 costs, were $14.66/boe (including FDC), resulting in a 2.0 recycle ratio. FD&A costs (including FDC) were $17.61 and $14.15 at the 1P and 2P levels, generating recycle ratios of 1.6 and 2.1, respectively.

  • Reserve life indices were 3.7 years, 9.9 years, and 16.2 years, respectively, for PDP, 1P and 2P reserves, based on our Q4 2024 production rate.

Year-end 2024 NOBV Reserves (3)

  • NOBV’s 2P reserves, as at December 31, 2024, increased to 55.7 million boe (99% TTF(5) gas), reflecting 155% replacement during 2024 from the July 2024 report and resulting in a 14% increase in after-tax NPV10(6) to €0.62 billion ($0.97 billion(7)).

Capital Activity and Outlook

  • Capital expenditures during 2024 were approximately $18.2 million (including costs for Carbon Capture & Storage (“CCS”) evaluation in the Netherlands), 4% below the low end of the guidance range set on November 7, 2024 and 29% below the low end of the original guidance range set on December 21, 2023.

  • The 2024 Canadian development program included drilling two gross (1.75 net) Ellerslie wells. This capital program reflected a change in the Canadian drilling plans from the initial four gross (3.5 net) well Rex program to the two gross well Ellerslie program. The redirection of the Canadian drilling program was effected to further improve capital efficiencies while still achieving 10% annual corporate production growth. The undrilled Rex wells remain in our project inventory with strong economics at current oil prices.

  • The change in our capital program from the originally-planned Rex wells to Ellerslie wells on newly-acquired lands delayed the start of our drilling program. As a result, production in 2024 was 0.4% below the bottom end of our 2,700 to 2,900 boe/d guidance range. We did not reduce our production guidance range when we reduced our capital investment guidance.

  • In 2025, we plan drilling and development capital expenditures of $30.0 to $34.0 million, consisting of a three gross (2.3 net) well drilling program in the Glauconitic and Ellerslie formations at LWB in Canada, using unstimulated horizontal wells. In our non-operated Netherlands assets, capital investment will be directed toward minor production-adding activities on existing wells, facility maintenance, and a development well in the L10/L11a license. In addition, Tenaz plans to invest $1.7 million in exploration and evaluation expenditures relating to continuing Front End Engineering Design (FEED) activities for the potential L10 Carbon Capture and Storage (“CCS”) project in the Netherlands.

  • Excluding NOBV, our annual consolidated production guidance for 2025 is 2,900 to 3,100 boe/d(1), approximately 12% higher than 2024. Tenaz will update its 2025 guidance reflecting additional investment and production from NOBV after closing, which is projected to occur at mid-year 2025 or earlier.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

We achieved several important milestones over the last year and continue to execute our corporate strategy at Tenaz. One of the most important steps was the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire NOBV from Nederlandse Aardolie Maatschappij B.V. (“NAM”).

Since the announcement of the NOBV acquisition, we have been engaged in transition activities prior to assuming operatorship. We continue to target a mid-year or earlier closing date. The transition activities include partial replacement of the IT environment, onboarding over 200 new colleagues, and integrating new and existing supplier and contractor relationships. We are very much looking forward to working with our new team. The NOBV staff is highly engaged in a successful transition that includes setting up an optimal go-forward organization prepared for future growth. We are focused on the planning for stepped-up workover and facility projects, and in the longer term, drilling the development and exploration locations identified on the NOBV assets. The Dutch offshore offers many opportunities to deliver safe, secure and low-emission energy for Europe in this time of supply uncertainty.

We have included an updated NOBV acquisition reserve report along with this annual announcement of results. As is customary for a year-end report, the updated NOBV report rolls forward the start date of the reserve assessment to December 31, 2024, one year after the effective date of the NOBV acquisition. The updated report recognized two projects not included in the report released at the time we announced the NOBV acquisition: a tie-in of a discovered but unproduced field using an existing idle well and one new development drilling location. These additions and other factors resulted in an increase in 2P reserves from 53.6 (as at January 1, 2024) to 55.7 million boe (as at December 31, 2024). Both reserve volumes are comprised of 99% TTF gas, with the remainder being condensate. After tax NPV10 increased from $803 million to $967 million compared to the July 1, 2024 report.

Overall, the projects outlined in the reserve report are both technically and economically more attractive than initially anticipated at the time of the NOBV acquisition announcement. A significant number of potential development projects are not included in the updated reserve report, and may be recognized in future reserve and resource reports. Following the full integration of the NOBV technical team post-closing, we are confident that additional projects across all reserve categories will be matured over time. Notably, we will leverage the significantly under-utilized infrastructure in the NOBV asset base, allowing for production growth without requiring substantial infrastructure investment.

With respect to commodity price conditions, the market for TTF gas continues to be volatile as it balances the availability of supply and seasonal demand requirements. Gas storage in Europe has experienced significant withdrawals this winter. Despite average winter temperatures trending at slightly warmer than normal, a series of cold spells caused demand spikes, and storage is expected to end the season at multi-year lows.

The primary source of supply into Europe has switched from pipeline imports to LNG, with the United States being the dominate supplier into the continent. Refilling storage this summer will require Europe to remain competitive in the LNG market, and gas prices will need to remain above coal-to-gas switching levels or else additional natural gas will need to be imported. European buyers hold less long-term supply contracts compared to Asian market participants, which makes Europe more reliant on spot market purchases of cargos. When global demand in all LNG markets is strong, spot market purchases require higher-priced competitive bids to secure supply. Looking forward, more supply is being built with European destinations in mind, so the price of European gas may normalize over time as certainty of sufficient supply becomes more visible.

Aside from NOBV, our current asset portfolio continues to provide investment opportunity and value to shareholders. In Canada, we acquired the Watelet Gas Plant and associated leasehold in Q2 2024 from a private seller. Although the primary purpose of the acquisition was to own and operate the gas plant, the acquired leasehold contained a number of open hole multi-lateral drilling opportunities that our team identified and was able to quickly work up into drillable locations. Our initial capital investment plan for 2024 emphasized our traditional Rex drilling at LWB, but the new lands offered the chance to switch to a lower capital intensity program using the unstimulated multi-lateral wells in the Ellerslie formation. The switch delayed the start of the drilling program and resulted in moderately lower 2024 production than we originally planned, while improving capital efficiency.

During the second half of 2024, we drilled two unstimulated multi-lateral horizontal wells in the Ellerslie formation of the Mannville group on the newly-acquired leasehold. The first well was completed in September 2024, with technical specifications and initial production results reported in our Q3 update. This well produces at a stable 35% water cut, and averaged gross production of 344 boe/d (92% oil) in Q4 2024. The second well was drilled with four horizontal laterals at a true vertical depth of 1,479 meters, a total measured depth of 5,246 meters, and an open hole length in the Ellerslie reservoir of 2,677 meters. This well was on production for 52 days in Q4 2024 at an average gross rate of 106 boe/d (69% oil) with a stable water cut of approximately 80%. Current rate from the two wells is approximately 360 boe/d (83% oil). Oil gravity is 26 °API. Tenaz has an 87.5% working interest in these two Ellerslie A pool wells.

We will continue development of the Ellerslie A Pool in 2025 with another multilateral well to be drilled to the east of the first well that we drilled in late 2024. Our other planned drilling for 2025 includes two unstimulated horizontal wells targeting the Glauconitic Sand. The first well is a three-leg multi-lateral within the Glauconite D Pool and the second is a single lateral well in the Glauconite A Pool. Our 2025 Canadian drilling program is designed to preserve optionality for further investment, while delivering continued organic production growth at high capital efficiency. Our multi-year inventory of Rex horizontal locations continues to have strong prospective economics. Our year-end 2024 reserve report reflects our robust Canadian operations, with a 2P reserve replacement ratio of 306% and a 2P organic recycle ratio of 2.0.

In our non-operated Netherlands asset, Eni Energy Netherlands B.V. has planned a development well in the L10/L11a license area (“L10 Malachite”) targeting a stranded discovered natural gas pool between two existing fields. The Malachite well is targeted to be drilled in the second half of 2025.

During Q4 2024, we enhanced Tenaz’ financial capabilities with a $140 million Offering of Senior Unsecured Notes due 2029, placed with institutional investors. The Notes replaced a $90 million delayed draw term loan entered into in July 2024 with National Bank of Canada to support the acquisition of NOBV.

We are honoured that Tenaz shares returned 257% in 2024. This total shareholder return placed Tenaz at the top of the 57 oil and gas companies listed on the TSX and in the top percentile of TSX-listed issues in all sectors. Looking forward, we see significant value in Tenaz’ assets. Accordingly, on February 11, 2025, we announced the renewal of our NCIB which will re-purchase a modest number of shares in the near term, and provide flexibility to increase the level of purchases in the future.

Finally, we continue to pursue acquisition projects within what we believe to be a robust transaction pipeline. Our goal is to maintain the same high standards in expanding our asset base as we have in our transactions to date. Our Board of Directors and employees remain aligned with shareholders, and we will continue our efforts to deliver value in 2025 and subsequent years.

Summary of Net Present Values of Future Net Revenue as at December 31, 2024

Benchmark crude oil and NGL prices used are adjusted for quality of crude oil or NGL produced, and for transportation costs. The calculated after-tax net present values (“NPVs”) are based on the Consultant Average Price Forecast at January 1, 2025. The NPVs include ADR but do not include a provision for interest, debt service charges and general and administrative expenses. It should not be assumed that the NPV estimate represents the fair market value of the reserves.

Finding and Development Costs and Recycle Ratios

FDC reflects the future capital costs, as provided by the Company and included in the McDaniel Report, to bring Tenaz’s proved and probable developed and undeveloped reserves on production. Changes in forecasted FDC occur annually as a result of development activities, acquisition and disposition activities, changes in capital cost estimates based on improvements in well design and performance, and changes in service costs.

Tenaz has incurred the following F&D(5) and FD&A(5) costs including FDC.

F&D and FD&A Costs per boe (1)(2)(3)(5)
F&D Costs per boe (including FDC) $ 14.21 $ 17.74 $ 14.49

(1) Barrels of oil equivalent may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. See “Information Regarding Disclosure on Oil and Gas Reserves and Operational Information” in this press release.
(2) The aggregate of the exploration and development costs incurred in the most recent financial year and the change during that year in estimated future development capital generally will not reflect total finding and development costs related to reserve additions for that year.
(3) The calculation of F&D and FD&A costs includes the change in FDC required to bring proved and probable undeveloped and developed reserves into production. The F&D or FD&A number is calculated by dividing the identified capital expenditures by applicable reserve additions including extensions, infills, revisions, acquisitions and disposals, and economic factors, after changes in FDC costs.
(4) Recycle Ratio is calculated by dividing operating netback (a non-GAAP measure) by the cost of adding reserves (“F&D Cost”).
(5) “FD&A Cost”, “F&D Cost”, and “Recycle Ratio” do not have standardized meanings and therefore may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other entities. See “Information Regarding Disclosure on Oil and Gas Reserves and Operational Information” in this press release.

NOBV Reserves Volumes and Net Present Value

McDaniel has completed an independent evaluation of the reserves associated with the NOBV assets and have assigned 55.7 million boe (99% natural gas) of Total Proved + Probable (“2P”) reserves with an effective date of December 31, 2024 (report dated March 12, 2025). McDaniel’s Total Proved (“1P”) and 2P reserves evaluation respectively include 2.1 and 4.6 net development wells with risked production profiles, and no exploration wells. McDaniel’s evaluation projects that the existing upstream assets will have a remaining economic production life of 28 years.

McDaniel’s evaluation of 2P reserves and after-tax net present value discounted at 10 percent (“NPV10”) of the 2P reserves using January 1, 2025 Consultant Average Price Forecast(1), after taking into account estimated decommissioning costs, are shown in the table below. The after-tax NPV10 includes decommissioning costs associated with the acquired assets, which are estimated to have a NPV10 of approximately €142 million ($222 million(2)).

CONTINGENT RESOURCES AND PROSPECTIVE RESOURCES

The Resources Report was prepared by McDaniel, the Company’s independent qualified reserves evaluator, in accordance with the COGE Handbook and NI 51 101. The Resources Report has an effective date of December 31, 2024 and a preparation date of March 12, 2025 Tenaz has commissioned our independent reserve evaluator to conduct an assessment of the resources for NOBV and expects to provide details of this report later in 2025.

Contingent and prospective resources evaluated in the Resource Report are located offshore in the Dutch North Sea in the Netherlands. Contingent resources reflect the undeveloped Rembrandt and Vermeer oil discoveries on the non-operated license F17a Deep Block and three undeveloped natural gas discoveries on the non-operated licenses, L10/L11a Block and K12 Block. Prospective resources reflect 21 exploration prospects on the non-operated licenses. Prospective volumes do not reflect any scaling factor for chance of development. As a non-operator interest holder the Company is unable to guarantee that any resource projects will be pursued.

The Resources Report summarizes estimates of crude oil and natural gas contingent resources and prospective resources of the Company and the net present values of best estimate contingent (2C) resources using forecast prices and costs.

An estimate of risked net present value of future net revenue of contingent resources is preliminary in nature and is provided to assist the reader in reaching an opinion on the merit and likelihood of the Company proceeding with the required investment. It includes contingent resources that are considered too uncertain with respect to the chance of development and chance of discovery to be classified as reserves. There is uncertainty that the risked net present value of future net revenue will be realized.

Information relating to resources contains forward-looking statements. See “Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.

ADVISORIES

Non‐GAAP and Other Financial Measures

This press release contains references to measures used in the oil and natural gas industry such as“funds flow from operations”,“funds flow from operations per share”,“funds flow from operations per boe”,“capital expenditures”,“free cash flow”,“midstream income”,“adjusted working capital (net debt)”, and“operating netback”. The data presented in this press release is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and sometimes referred to in this press release as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). These reported non-GAAP measures and their underlying calculations are not necessarily comparable or calculated in an identical manner to a similarly titled measure of other companies where similar terminology is used. Where these measures are used, they should be given careful consideration by the reader.

Funds flow from operations

Tenaz considers funds flow from operations to be a key measure of performance as it demonstrates the Company’s ability to generate the necessary funds for sustaining capital, future growth through capital investment, and settling liabilities. Funds flow from operations is calculated as cash flow from operating activities plus midstream income and before changes in non-cash operating working capital and decommissioning liabilities settled. Funds flow from operations is not intended to represent cash flows from operating activities calculated in accordance with GAAP. A summary of the reconciliation of cash flow from operating activities to funds flow from operations, is set forth below:

($000) Q4 2024 Q3 2024 Q4 2023 2024 2023
Cash flow from operating activities 23 11,923 8,927 6,244 15,176
Change in non-cash operating working capital 6,114 (10,469 ) (3,113 ) 7,641 274
Decommissioning liabilities settled 1,065 243 6,187 5,350 9,048
Midstream income 1,097 1,663 1,400 5,289 4,364
Funds flow from operations 8,299 3,360 13,401 24,524 28,862

Funds flow from operations per share is calculated using basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding in the period.

Funds flow from operations per boe is calculated as funds flow from operations divided by total production sold in the period.

Capital Expenditures

Tenaz considers capital expenditures to be a useful measure of the Company’s investment in its existing asset base calculated as the sum of drilling and development costs and exploration and evaluation costs. Exploration and evaluation asset additions (being exploration and evaluation costs) and property, plant and equipment additions (being drilling and development costs) are taken from the consolidated statements of cash flows that is most directly comparable to cash flows used in investing activities. The reconciliation to financial statement measures is set forth below.

($000) Q4 2024 Q3 2024 Q4 2023 2024 2023
Exploration and evaluation expenditures 501 462 357 1,948 1,519
Property, plant and equipment expenditures 4,461 6,484 2,610 16,277 23,336
Capital expenditures 4,962 6,946 2,967 18,225 24,855

Free Cash Flow (“FCF”)

Tenaz considers free cash flow to be a key measure of performance as it demonstrates the Company’s excess funds generated after capital expenditures for potential shareholder returns, acquisitions, or growth in available liquidity. FCF is a non-GAAP financial measure and is comprised of funds flow from operations less capital expenditures. A summary of the reconciliation of the measure, is set forth below:

($000) Q4 2024 Q3 2024 Q4 2023 2024 2023
Funds flow from operations 8,299 3,360 13,401 24,524 28,862
Less: Capital expenditures (4,962 ) (6,946 ) (2,967 ) (18,225 ) (24,855 )
Free cash flow 3,337 (3,586 ) 10,434 6,299 4,007

Midstream Income

Tenaz considers midstream income an integral part of determining operating netback. Operating netback assists management and investors with evaluating operating performance. Tenaz’s midstream income consists of the equity-accounted income from its associate, Noordgastransport B.V.(“NGT”) prior to the amortization of the fair value increment recognized on NGT at the time of the acquisition. Under GAAP, investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Income from associate is Tenaz’s share of the investee’s net income.

Midstream income 1,097 1,663 1,400 5,289 4,364

Adjusted working capital (net debt)

Management views adjusted working capital (net debt) as a key industry benchmark and measure to assess the Company’s financial position and liquidity. Adjusted working capital (net debt) is calculated as current assets less current liabilities, excluding the fair value of derivative instruments. Tenaz’s adjusted working capital (net debt) as at December 31, 2024 and 2023 is summarized as follows:

($000) December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023
Current assets 188,537 92,488
Current liabilities (40,304 ) (43,988 )
Net current assets 148,233 48,500
Fair value of derivative instruments (5 ) 838
Long-term debt (138,275 )
Adjusted working capital (net debt) 9,953 49,338

Operating Netback

Tenaz calculates operating netback on a dollar and per boe basis, as petroleum and natural gas sales less royalties, operating costs and transportation costs, plus midstream income (as described above). Operating netback is a key industry benchmark and a measure of performance for Tenaz that provides investors with information that is commonly used by other crude oil and natural gas producers. The measurement on a per boe basis assists management and investors with evaluating operating performance on a comparable basis with other issuers.

Information Regarding Disclosure of Oil and Gas Reserves and Operational Information

All amounts in this press release are stated in Canadian dollars unless otherwise specified. Tenaz’s crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas reserves statement for the year ended December 31, 2024, is contained within the Company’s AIF. The AIF is available on SEDAR+ at and on the Company’s website at . The recovery and reserve estimates are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated reserves will be recovered.

This press release contains metrics commonly used in the oil and natural gas industry, such as “reserve life indices”, “recycle ratio”, “finding and development (F&D) costs”, “finding, development and acquisition (FD&A) costs”, and “operating netback”. Each of these metrics is determined by Tenaz as set forth in this press release. These terms do not have standardized meanings or standardized methods of calculation and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies, and therefore should not be used to make such comparisons. Such metrics have been included to provide readers with additional information to evaluate the Company’s performance, however such metrics should not be unduly relied upon for investment or other purposes. Management uses these metrics for its own performance measurements and to provide readers with measures to compare Tenaz’s performance over time. Such measures are not reliable indicators of the Company’s future performance and future performance may not compare to the performance in previous periods. Readers are cautioned that the information provided by these metrics, or that can be derived from the metrics presented in this press release, should not be relied upon for investment or other purposes.

Both F&D and FD&A costs take into account reserves revisions during the year on a per boe basis. The aggregate of the costs incurred in the financial year and changes during that year in estimated FDC may not reflect total F&D costs related to reserves additions for that year.

Information Regarding Disclosure of Crude Oil and Natural Gas Resources

The resources estimates in this press release are derived from the Resources Report. The following provides the definitions of the various resource categories used in this press release as set out in the COGE Handbook. “Contingent resource” and “prospective resource” are not, and should not be confused with, petroleum and natural gas reserves.

Contingent resources are defined in the COGE Handbook as those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from known accumulations using established technology or technology under development, but which are not currently considered to be commercially recoverable due to one or more contingencies.

The primary contingencies which currently prevent the classification of the contingent resource as reserves include but are not limited to: preparation of firm development plans, including determination of the specific scope and timing of the project; project sanction; access to capital markets; stakeholder and regulatory approvals; access to required services and field development infrastructure; crude oil and natural gas prices internationally in jurisdictions in which Tenaz operates; demonstration of economic viability; future drilling program and testing results; further reservoir delineation and studies; facility design work; corporate commitment; limitations to development based on adverse topography or other surface restrictions; and the uncertainty regarding marketing and transportation of petroleum from development areas.

Prospective resources are defined in the COGE Handbook as those quantities of petroleum estimated, as of a given date, to be potentially recoverable from undiscovered accumulations by application of future development projects. Prospective resources have two risk components, the chance of discovery and the chance of development. There is no certainty that the prospective resources will be discovered. If discovered, there is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the prospective resources. Application of any geological and economic chance factor does not equate prospective resources to contingent resources or reserves.

Low estimate prospective resource is considered to be a conservative estimate of the quantity that will actually be recovered. It is likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the low estimate. If probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 90 percent probability (P90) that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the low estimate.

Best estimate prospective resource is considered to be the best estimate of the quantity that will actually be recovered. It is equally likely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the best estimate. If probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 50 percent probability (P50) that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the best estimate.

High estimate prospective resource is considered to be an optimistic estimate of the quantity that will actually be recovered. It is unlikely that the actual remaining quantities recovered will exceed the high estimate. If probabilistic methods are used, there should be at least a 10 percent probability (P10) that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the high estimate.

Mean estimate prospective resource is the arithmetic average from the probabilistic assessment.

Although the Company has identified prospective resources, there are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating oil and gas resources, including many factors beyond the Company’s control and no assurance can be given that the indicated level of resources or recovery of hydrocarbons will be realized. In general, estimates of recoverable resources are based upon a number of factors and assumptions made as of the date on which the resource estimates were determined, such as geological and engineering estimates which have inherent uncertainties and the assumed effects of regulation by governmental agencies and estimates of future commodity prices and operating costs, all of which may vary considerably from actual results. There are several significant negative factors relating to the prospective resource estimate which include (i) structural events that are well defined seismically and are low risk, however, reservoir quality, seal, hydrocarbon migration and associated hydrocarbon column estimates are more at risk than the former, (ii) well costs are very high due to the exploratory nature of the initial group of wells, (iii) due to limited infrastructure proximate to the prospects, gas discoveries may be stranded for some time until infrastructure is in place, which may take some time due to the remoteness of the prospects and costs associated with same, and (iv) other factors which are not within the control of the Company.

There is no certainty that any portion of the prospective resources will be discovered. There is no certainty that it will be commercially viable to produce any portion of the contingent resources or prospective resources or that Tenaz will produce any portion of the volumes currently classified as contingent resources or prospective resources. All contingent resources and prospective resources evaluated by McDaniel were deemed economic at the effective date of December 31, 2024. The estimates of contingent resources and prospective resources involve implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions, that the resources described exist in the quantities predicted or estimated and that the resources can be profitably produced in the future.

The risked net present value of the future net revenue from the contingent resources and prospective resources does not represent the fair market value. Actual contingent resources and prospective resources (and any volumes that may be reclassified as reserves) and future production therefrom may be greater than or less than the estimates provided herein.

The resource estimates are estimates only and there is no guarantee that the estimated resources will be recovered.

Barrels of Oil Equivalent

The term barrels of oil equivalent (“boe”) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. Per boe amounts have been calculated by using the conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet (6 Mcf) of natural gas to one barrel (1 bbl) of crude oil. The boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf to 1 bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalent of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.

Colibri & Partner Drill 83.5 Metres At 1.3 Grams Per Tonne Gold (Including 10.3 Grams Per Tonne Gold Over 9.7 Metres) At El Pilar Gold & Silver Project In Sonora Mexico

(MENAFN– Newsfile Corp)
Dieppe, New Brunswick–(Newsfile Corp. – March 11, 2025) – Colibri Resource Corporation (TSXV: CBI) (“Colibri” or the “Company”) is pleased to share the assay results from the first two holes drilled in its recent 10 hole diamond drilling program (1,167.5 metres) at the El Pilar Gold & Silver Project in Sonora Mexico. Colibri holds 49% interest of the El Pilar along side its partner Tocvan Ventures, which holds a 51% ownership in this advanced stage exploration project. Tocvan is the operator of the El Pilar.

“We are very pleased with the results from these first two drill holes. The near surface nature of this additional higher-grade mineralization only strengthens our belief that the El Pilar could become a profitable near-term gold and silver production asset for Colibri. The work programs planned for Pilar this year, which includes an up to 50,000 tonne bulk sample/test mine and a maiden resource estimate, should further demonstrate this theory. We look forward to releasing the results from the additional 8 holes of this program in due course as data is received from the operator.” commented, Colibri President & CEO Ian McGavney.

Tocvan – News Release – March 11 th , 2025

Highlights:

  • Highest Gold Grade Result Since Prospect Discovery in 1996

    • 10.3 g/t Au Over 9.7m, including 1.6m of 60.6 g/t Au (Hole JES-25-104)

      • Only surpassed by Historic Drill Hole S-10, 16.5 meters of 53 g/t Au (1996 Discovery) *

    • Anomalous Mineralization from 14.1 to 97.6 meters averaging 1.3 g/t Au

    • Next to Trench Opened in 2023 for Bulk Sample Material

      • Surface Channels Averaged, 1.9 g/t Au and 9 g/t Ag over 14m (TR-2023-03)

  • Northwestern Hole JES-25-103, returns 3.7 meters of 0.4 g/t Au, 39 g/t Ag and 2.6% Cu

    • Anomalous Mineralization from 19.7 to 54.4 meters averaging 0.1 g/t Au, 8 g/t Ag and 0.54% Cu

Tocvan Ventures Corp. (CSE: TOC) (OTCQB: TCVNF) (WKN: TV3/A2PE64) (the ” Company “), is pleased to announce results from the first two core holes recently drilled at the Gran Pilar Gold Silver Project in mine-friendly Sonora, Mexico. Ten core drillholes totalling 1,167.5 meters were completed earlier this year within the majority owned (51%) Main Zone held in partnership with Colibri Resource Corp. Results are highlighted by 10.3 g/t Au over 9.7m, including 60.6 g/t Au over 1.6 meters starting at 87.8 meters vertical depth (JES-25-104). The high-grade mineralization correlates with at surface mineralization and lies within a broader anomalous zone drilled that averages 1.3 g/t Au over 83.5 meters from 14.1 meters below surface . In 2023, a trench exposed material adjacent to the drill hole that averaged 1.9 g/t Au and 9 g/t Ag over 14m . Material from the trench was used in the 2023 Bulk Sample completed by Tocvan. JES-25-104 is also on the same section as RC hole, JES-20-36 ( 24.4m of 2.5 g/t Au and 73 g/t Ag, including 1.5 m of 33.4 g/t Au and 1,090 g/t Ag ) and later core hole JES-22-58 ( 21.7m of 0.9 g/t Au, including 4.0m of 4.2 g/t Au ). The highest-grade mineralization intersected is related to a fault structure known to host high grade gold and silver. The result is the highest gold value recorded since initial discovery drilling was completed in 1996 by Lundin controlled company, Santa Catalina Mining Corp., where historic hole S-10 returned 53 g/t Au over 16.5 meters (*as reported July 30, 1996 by Santa Catalina Ming Corp.). Further to the northwest, 145 meters, core hole JES-25-103, returned anomalous gold, silver and copper averaging 0.1 g/t Au, 8 g/t Ag and 0.54% Cu over 34.7 meters starting from 19.7 meters downhole. A higher grade zone averages 3.7 meters of 0.4 g/t Au, 39 g/t Ag and 2.6% Cu . Elevated copper values are consistent with results recorded in the North Hill area and seen in trench exposures that may be related to granitoid intrusive rocks first recorded in recent RC drilling further north.

“These near-surface high-grade results showcase the rapid development potential of Pilar.” commented, CEO Brodie Sutherland. “Core drilling has again yielded some of the best results ever from the property. Results are in line with our initial observations of key styles of significant mineralization. The very high-grade interval in JES-25-104 coincides with a fault and adjacent intense, texture destructive hematite and silica alteration. Understanding these high-grade structures is essential for upgrading resource potential and identifying areas of focus for initial mining. Further to the north, hole JES-25-103 has yielded some of the best results to date on the northwestern edge of the Main Zone where surface mapping has outlined key controlling structures with elevated copper and silver. We look forward to sharing the remaining drill results as they become available.”

Royal Road Minerals Reports Scout Drilling Results And Provides An Update On The Alouana Option Agreement: Kingdom Of Morocco

(MENAFN– Newsfile Corp)
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 10, 2025) – Royal Road Minerals Limited (TSXV: RYR) (” Royal Road ” or the ” Company “) reports geochemical results from its 2000 meter reverse circulation scout drilling program at the Alouana project in Morocco. The Alouana project is subject to an Option Agreement (the “Agreement”; see Press Release, October 17, 2023) between Royal Road Arabia Limited (” RRA”; a Saudi Arabian joint-venture company owned on a 50-50% basis by Royal Road and MIDU Company Limited) and Izughar Resources S.A.R.L ( “Izughar” ), the Moroccan company holding title to the Alouana licenses. The terms of the Agreement require that upon completion of a minimum 2000 meters of drilling and receipt of all geochemical results, RRA has the one-time option to pay to Izughar the amount of US$750,000 (the “Option Payment “) in exchange for 90% of Izughar (see Press Release, October 17, 2023).

The Company has completed 22 reverse circulation drill holes for a total of 2036 meters at Alouana (see Figure 1). Drilling intersected predominantly steeply dipping vein-breccia-hosted copper-bismuth-tungsten (± gold, silver and zinc) mineralization with best intersections in copper equivalent1 returning:

(Not true width and the company does not have sufficient information to determine the true widths of the drill hole intersections: Table 1)

To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:

The principal aim of this drilling program was to test for the continuity of shallow-dipping (shear and cleavage parallel) mineralization at depth (see press release, October 23, 2024). A significant thickness of this style of mineralization, combined with the (conjugate northeast and northwest trending) steep-dipping vein-breccia controlled mineralization, would possibly provide a bulk volume significant enough for an open-pit type mining scenario along the Alouana ridge top. Shallow-dipping mineralization did not continue at depth, or significantly away from the immediate vicinity of steeper-dipping vein-breccia style mineralization and the grade and continuity of mineralization intersected within the vein-breccia bodies is not deemed significant enough to support a standalone underground operation. Additionally, gold results returned from sulphide mineralization were low (maximum 0.6 grams per tonne over a meter; RC24AL019 and RC24AL021) and the highest gold intersection in oxide material was 2.2 grams per tonne over a meter (RC24AL022). Highest individual one meter downhole sample results for other metals were, silver 98.3ppm, copper 3.6%, zinc 3.1%, bismuth 0.5% and tungsten 0.6%.

It is management’s view that this drilling program has sufficiently tested the immediate potential for economic resources at Alouana and that results are not encouraging enough to support further work. RRA has notified Izughar that it does not intend to pay the Option Payment and that it has withdrawn from the Agreement.

“We had well-guided clear objectives for this drilling program and once all requisite permits were received, the program was completed in an efficient, safe and cost-effective manner ” said Tim Coughlin, Royal Road’s President and CEO “Alouana is an intrusion-related copper-polymetallic system and these systems, particularly where a shallow-dipping control to mineralization is evident, remain a priority target for Royal Road.”

Among the key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements are the following: the inability to complete the sale of the North Dakota Facility on the terms as announced or at all; the inability to apply the proceeds of the sale of the North Dakota Facility to develop new data centers on an economic basis or to acquire additional bitcoin as a profitable holding; changes in the Company’s relationships, including with regulatory bodies, employees, customers and competitors; changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including changes in the financial markets; changes in applicable laws and regulations both locally and in foreign jurisdictions; compliance with extensive government regulation and the costs associated with compliance; unanticipated costs; changes in market conditions impacting the average revenue per MWh; the risks and uncertainties associated with foreign markets; the construction and operation of new facilities may not occur as currently planned, or at all; expansion of existing facilities may not materialize as currently anticipated, or at all; new miners may not perform up to expectations; revenue may not increase as currently anticipated, or at all; the ongoing ability to successfully mine Bitcoin is not assured; failure of the equipment upgrades to be installed and operated as planned; the availability of additional power may not occur as currently planned, or at all; and the power purchase agreements and economics thereof may not be as advantageous as expected. Additionally, the forward-looking statements contained herein may be affected by risks and uncertainties in the business of Cathedra and general market conditions.

Although the Company has attempted to identify important risks, uncertainties and factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended and such changes could be material, including factors that are currently unknown to or deemed immaterial by the Company.
