Halifax, Nova Scotia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 24, 2026) - EDM Resources Inc. (TSXV: EDM) (FSE: P3Z) (OTCQB: EDMFF) ("EDM" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that certain directors, insiders and major shareholders have exercised common share purchase warrants generating gross proceeds of approximately $1.5 million, providing significant additional capital to advance the Scotia Mine, fund ongoing exploration and development activities, and strengthen the Company's working capital position.
