London, UK – 10 October 2025 – Sorbie Bornholm LP (“Sorbie”), a UK investment fund, is pleased to announce that Tocvan Ventures Corp. (“Tocvan”) (CSE: TOC; OTCQB: TCVNF; WKN: TV3/A2PE64) has received increased cash in its most recent monthly settlement under the two ongoing Sharing Agreements with Sorbie — approximately 80% extra cash was received from the Sharing Agreement dated 24 April 2024, and a further 31% extra received from the Sharing Agreement dated 10 December 2024, all without any new share issuance.
This milestone coincides with Tocvan’s continued progress at its flagship Gran Pilar Gold-Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico, where the company recently:
- Received full permit approval for drilling, trenching, and pilot mine operations;
- Completed initial results from a 224-line-kilometer drone magnetic survey, identifying a major structural complex in the South Block that strongly correlates with high-grade surface geochemistry (rock and soil assays up to 21.2 g/t Au and >2,000 g/t Ag), thus highlighting new high-priority targets for upcoming drilling;
- Advanced pilot facility design work, including a planned hydrometallurgical processing plant and 50,000-tonne heap-leach pad, to support near-term production and optimize gold and silver recovery; and
- Expanded its exploration footprint across 100%-controlled ground, integrating geological, geochemical, and geophysical data to refine drill targets and prioritize new discovery zones.
With a strengthened cash position, exceptional metallurgical recoveries (up to 99% gold and 97% silver), and multiple new exploration targets emerging, Tocvan remains focused on advancing Gran Pilar toward pilot-scale production and unlocking long-term shareholder value in one of Mexico’s most productive gold-silver regions.
About Tocvan Ventures Corp.
Tocvan Ventures Corp. is a dynamic exploration and development company advancing high-potential gold and silver projects in the mine-friendly jurisdiction of Sonora, Mexico. The company recently achieved a major milestone with permit approval for a 50,000-tonne pilot mine facility at its flagship Gran Pilar Gold-Silver Project, positioning Tocvan to move toward pilot-scale production. In parallel, Tocvan reported significant exploration progress, including results from a 224-line-kilometer drone magnetic survey that revealed a major structural complex in the South Block, correlating with high-grade surface geochemistry — including assays up to 21.2 g/t Au and over 2,000 g/t Ag — and identifying multiple new high-priority drill targets.
The planned pilot facility will feature a hydrometallurgical processing plant and 50,000-tonne heap-leach pad, enabling Tocvan to optimize extraction methods, generate early cash flow, and capitalize on robust exploration results. Recent drilling confirmed high-grade, near-surface mineralization, including 6.1 m at 5.4 g/t Au and 39 g/t Ag, and 3.1 m at 19.4 g/t Au. Metallurgical testing demonstrated exceptional recoveries of up to 99% gold and 97% silver.
In addition to advancing the pilot mine toward operation, Tocvan is integrating geophysical, geological, and geochemical data to refine drill targets and deliver a maiden resource estimate, while continuing exploration at its Picacho Gold-Silver Project along the Caborca Trend, one of Mexico’s most prolific gold-producing regions.
