QUEBEC CITY, Sept. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- West African gold producer and developer Robex Resources Inc. (“Robex” or the “Company”) (ASX: RXR | TSX-V: RBX | OTC: RSRBF | Börse Frankfurt: RB4) is pleased to announce the acceleration of the expiry date set for 27 June 2026 (the “Expiry Date”) relating to its listed common share purchase warrants issued on 27 June 2024 (the “2024 Warrants”). The 2024 Warrants were originally granted in connection with the Company’s equity financing, with each 2024 Warrant entitling the holder to acquire one common share of Robex at an exercise price of C$2.55.

Under the terms of the 2024 Warrants, Robex is entitled to accelerate the Expiry Date if the volume weighted average trading price (“VWAP”) and the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange equals or exceeds C$3.50 for a period of ten (10) consecutive trading days (an “Acceleration Event”). Further details of the 2024 Warrants were disclosed at section 8.5(a) of the Company’s Replacement Prospectus dated 8 May 2025.

The Acceleration Event occurred between 2 September 2025 and 15 September 2025, during which time the VWAP and closing price of Robex’s common shares exceeded C$3.50 for ten (10) consecutive trading days. This acceleration follows a sustained increase in the Company’s share price and reflects continued progress in the development of the Kiniéro Gold Project in Guinea. As a result, the Company has elected to accelerate the Expiry Date of the 2024 Warrants to 5:30 p.m. (Toronto time) on 18 October 2025 (the “Accelerated Expiry Date”). Any 2024 Warrants that remain unexercised following the Accelerated Expiry Date will expire and be of no further force or effect.

As of the date of this announcement, there are 57,759,921 2024 Warrants outstanding. If all 2024 Warrants are exercised prior to the Accelerated Expiry Date, the Company expects to receive gross proceeds of approximately C$147.3 million.

2024 Warrant holders are encouraged to exercise their 2024 Warrants in accordance with the instructions provided in the notice of acceleration to be delivered to registered holders and available on the Company’s website.

Matthew Wilcox, Managing Director of Robex, commented:

“This marks a major milestone for Robex. The acceleration of the Warrants is a strong endorsement of our strategy and momentum, and it provides a timely opportunity to further strengthen our balance sheet. The expected proceeds will be used to fund exploration activities at Kiniero, support the continued development of the Kiniero Mine, and provide flexibility for broader corporate initiatives in 2026. With first gold pour at Kiniero scheduled for December 2025 and commercial production expected in Q1 2026, we are entering a transformative phase for the Company.”

This announcement was approved by the Managing Director.

Statements made in this news release that describe the Company’s or Management’s estimates, expectations, forecasts, objectives, predictions, projections of the future or strategies may be “forward-looking statements”, and can be identified by the use of the conditional or forward-looking terminology such as “aim”, “anticipate”, “assume”, “believe”, “can”, “contemplate”, “continue”, “could”, “estimate”, “expect”, “forecast”, “future”, “guidance”, “guide”, “indication”, “intend”, “intention”, “likely”, “may”, “might”, “objective”, “opportunity”, “outlook”, “plan”, “potential”, “should”, “strategy”, “target”, “will” or “would” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon. Forward-looking statements also include any other statements that do not refer to historical facts.

Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information are made based upon certain assumptions and other important factors that, if untrue, could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such statements or information. There can be no assurance that such statements or information will prove to be accurate. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions, including: the ability to execute the Company’s plans relating to the Kiniero Gold Project as set out in the feasibility study with respect thereto, as the same may be updated, the whole in accordance with the revised timeline previously disclosed by the Company; the Company’s ability to complete its planned exploration and development programs; the absence of adverse conditions at the Kiniero Gold Project; the absence of unforeseen operational delays; the absence of material delays in obtaining necessary permits; the price of gold remaining at levels that render the Kiniero Gold Project profitable; the Company’s ability to continue raising necessary capital to finance its operations; the ability of the Company to realize on the mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates; assumptions regarding present and future business strategies, local and global geopolitical and economic conditions and the environment in which the Company operates and will operate in the future; the Company’s ability to complete the listing of its common shares on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”), and the anticipated timing of such listing; satisfaction of the conditions precedent under the Facility Agreement; the Borrower’s access to the facility made available under the Facility Agreement; and the utilization of any amount received by the Borrower under the Facility Agreement for the purposes identified by the Company.

Certain important factors could cause the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements including, but not limited to: the risk that the Borrower is unable to fulfil the conditions precedent to drawdowns under the Facility Agreement, and is therefore not able to borrow some or all of the principal amount otherwise available under the Facility Agreement; the risk that the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow or complete subsequent debt or equity financings to allow it to repay amounts borrowed under the Facility Agreement; the risk that the obligors under the Facility Agreement are unable to comply with the financial and other covenants under the Facility Agreement, giving rise to an event of default; geopolitical risks and security challenges associated with its operations in West Africa, including the Company’s inability to assert its rights and the possibility of civil unrest and civil disobedience; fluctuations in the price of gold; uncertainties as to the Company’s estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development; the replacement of the Company’s depleted mineral reserves; the Company’s limited number of projects; the risk that the Kiniero Gold Project will never reach the production stage (including due to a lack of financing); the Company’s capital requirements and access to funding; changes in legislation, regulations and accounting standards to which the Company is subject, including environmental, health and safety standards, and the impact of such legislation, regulations and standards on the Company’s activities; equity interests and royalty payments payable to third parties; price volatility and availability of commodities; instability in the global financial system; uncertainty surrounding the imposition of tariffs by one country, including, but not limited to, the United States, on goods or services being imported into that country from another country and the ultimate effect of such tariffs on the Company’s supply chains; the effects of high inflation, such as higher commodity prices; fluctuations in currency exchange rates, particularly as between the Canadian dollar, in which the Company presently raises its equity financings, and the US dollar; the risk of any pending or future litigation against the Company; limitations on transactions between the Company and its foreign subsidiaries; volatility in the market price of the Common Shares; tax risks, including changes in taxation laws or assessments on the Company; the Company obtaining and maintaining titles to property as well as the permits and licenses required for the Company’s ongoing operations; changes in project parameters and/or economic assessments as plans continue to be refined; the risk that actual costs may exceed estimated costs; geological, mining and exploration technical problems; failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing; the effects of public health crises on the Company’s activities; the Company’s relations with its employees and other stakeholders, including local governments and communities in the countries in which it operates; the risk of any violations of applicable anticorruption laws, export control regulations, economic sanction programs and related laws by the Company or its agents; the risk that the Company encounters conflicts with small-scale miners; competition with other mining companies; the Company’s dependence on third-party contractors; the Company’s reliance on key executives and highly skilled personnel; the Company’s access to adequate infrastructure; the risks associated with the Company’s potential liabilities regarding its tailings storage facilities; supply chain disruptions; hazards and risks normally associated with mineral exploration and gold mining development and production operations; problems related to weather and climate; the risk of information technology system failures and cybersecurity threats; the risk that the Company is not able to complete the listing of its common shares on the ASX within the anticipated timeframe or at all; the risk that the Borrower is not able to access the proceeds of the Debt Facility or use any amount received under the Facility Agreement for the purposes identified by the Company; and the risk that the Company may not be able to insure against all the potential risks associated with its operations.

Although the Company believes its expectations are based upon reasonable assumptions and has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. These factors are not intended to represent a complete and exhaustive list of the factors that could affect the Company; however, they should be considered carefully. There can be no assurance that forward-looking information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information.
