  • VR Resources Announces $1.5M Brokered Private Placement Led by Centurion One Capital, Concurrent Share Consolidation, Management Change, and Start-Up of Drill Planning for its New Boston Tungsten-Molybdenum-Copper-Silver porphyry project in Nevada

    VR Resources Announces $1.5M Brokered Private Placement Led by Centurion One Capital, Concurrent Share Consolidation, Management Change, and Start-Up of Drill Planning for its New Boston Tungsten-Molybdenum-Copper-Silver porphyry project in Nevada

    VR Resources Ltd.

    VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — VR Resources Limited (“VR” or the “Company”, TSXV: VRR) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Centurion One Capital Corp. (the “Lead Agent”) as lead agent and sole bookrunner in connection with a brokered private placement. The Company initially plans to raise up to $1.5M (the “Offering“) through the sale of up to 15M units (“Units“) at a post-Consolidation issue price of $0.10 per Unit (the “Issue Price”), on a commercially reasonable efforts basis. Each Unit shall consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Share”) and one Share purchase warrant (each, a “Warrant”). Each full Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Share (a “Warrant Share”) at a post-Consolidation price of $0.16 (the “Exercise Price”) for a period of 36 months from the Closing Date (as defined below).

    Use of Proceeds – Planned Exploration, Nevada.
    Use of proceeds of the Offering will be used for upcoming exploration planned at its New Boston tungsten-moly-copper-silver porphyry project and Bonita copper-gold porphyry project in Nevada, and for general working capital purposes.

    • Preparation and submission of drill permit for New Boston property: W-Mo-Cu-Ag target at Jeep Mine;

    • Scoping and execution of drill contract for New Boston property;

    • Execution of contract for completion of 3D-arrary DCIP geophysical survey at Bonita project: copper-gold porphyry stock target at Copper Queen

    It is anticipated that certain insiders of the Company, the Lead Agent and certain affiliates may acquire Units in the Offering in amounts up to approximately 50% of the Offering. Any participation by insiders in the Offering will constitute a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“). The Company expects such participation will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the Units subscribed for by the insiders, nor the consideration for the Units paid by such insiders, is expected to exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

    In connection with the Offering, a commission will be payable to the Lead Agent of 8% of the aggregate cash proceeds received from the sale of the Offered Securities (the “Cash Commission”) and a number of warrants (the “Broker Warrants”) equal to 8% of the aggregate number of Units issued under the Offering in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”).

    The Offering is expected to close on or around November 14, 2025, or such other date as agreed upon between the Company and the Lead Agent (the “Closing Date”) and the Offering is subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the Exchange and the completion of the Consolidation (as defined below). The securities to be issued under the Offering will have a hold period of four months and one day from the Closing Date.

    The Units to be issued under the Offering will be offered by way of private placement in each of the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario, in the United States pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act“), and in jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States mutually agreed by the Company and the Lead Agent provided it is understood that no prospectus filing, registration or comparable obligation arises in such other jurisdiction.

    This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.

    Consolidation

    The Company further announces that it will undergo a consolidation of its issued and outstanding common shares at a ratio of five (5) pre-consolidation common shares to one (1) post-consolidation common share (the “Consolidation”), subject to approval of the Exchange and confirmation that the Offering will complete. Closing of the Offering will be subject to the prior implementation of the Consolidation. The Company currently has 133,443,467 shares issued and outstanding, and it is anticipated that immediately following the Consolidation, excluding Shares to be issued in connection with the Offering, the Company will have approximately 26,688,695 shares issued and outstanding, prior to rounding of fractional Shares. If approved by the TSXV, the Consolidation will occur immediately prior to the closing of the Offering.

    The Issue Price, Exercise Price and securities issuable pursuant to the Offering reflect the prior implementation of the Consolidation and are all disclosed herein on a post-Consolidation basis.

    Any fractional interest in Shares resulting from the Consolidation will be rounded down to the nearest whole Share. Registered shareholders will receive a letter of transmittal from the Company’s transfer agent with information on how to replace their old share certificates with the new share certificates. Brokerage firms will handle the replacement of share certificates on behalf of their shareholders’ accounts.

    Management Change

    The Company further announces that Justin Daley has tendered his resignation as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, effective October 20, 2025. The Company thanks Mr. Daley for his contributions to the Company, and wishes him well in his future endeavours. The Board of Directors has appointed Founder and Chairman, Dr. Michael H. Gunning, as President and CEO.

    ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
