London, UK – 16 June 2025 – Sorbie Bornholm LP, (“Sorbie”) a UK Investment Fund, is pleased to share that Tocvan Ventures Corp. (“Tocvan”) (CSE: TOC; OTCQB: TCVNF; WKN: TV3/A2PE64) received approximately 37% extra cash from the Sharing Agreement in the most recent monthly settlement without issuing any additional shares.
Tocvan is on the brink of a major milestone—launching a pilot mine at its Pilar Gold-Silver Project which is backed by high-grade gold intercepts and exceptional recovery rates up to 99%. With permitting in process and a defined path to production, this is a rare ground-floor opportunity in one of Mexico’s most prolific gold belts.
Gold prices continue to hold near record highs, recently trading above USD$3,350/oz, as market uncertainty and central bank demand support strong long-term fundamentals. Despite short-term volatility, analysts project continued strength in gold through 2025, reinforcing the growth potential for near-term producers like Tocvan.
Sorbie Bornholm and Tocvan entered into Sharing Agreements dated 24 April 2024 and 10 December 2024. The Sharing Agreement allows Tocvan to retain much of the economic interest in the Sorbie Subscription Shares. The Sharing Agreement is designed to provide Tocvan with flexibility in continuing to advance Tocvan’s Projects in Mexico while maintaining a constant source of funds covering a portion of Tocvan’s short to medium term cash flow requirements as they work toward building the pilot mine this year.
About Tocvan Ventures Corp.
Tocvan is an explorer and near-term gold producer advancing two promising gold-silver projects in the mine-friendly jurisdiction of Sonora, Mexico: the Gran Pilar and Picacho projects. At Gran Pilar, the company holds 100% interest in over 21 square kilometers of prospective ground. The initial resource target is 300k-500k Au oz. Tocvan also holds 100% interest in the Picacho project, located in the Caborca Gold Belt, home to several major gold deposits.
Tocvan completed a 1,400-tonne bulk sample at Gran Pilar, returning a 1.9 g/t Au head grade and over 62% recovery through heap leaching.

Ongoing drilling and trenching have expanded mineralized zones, advancing the project toward a maiden resource and Preliminary Economic Assessment. Planning is underway for a pilot plant facility, with permitting expected in the second half of 2025 and pilot mining anticipated to begin in 2026.
