PERTH, Australia, Feb. 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FireFly Metals Ltd (ASX: FFM, TSX: FFM) (FireFly or the Company) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding share sale and purchase deed (Deed) with Bellavista Resources Ltd (ASX: BVR) (Bellavista) pursuant to which FireFly will, subject to and conditional upon the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions precedent (as summarised below):
- sell its interests in the tenements comprising the Pickle Crow Project and Sioux Lookout Project (together, the Ontario Gold Assets) by way of the sale of all of the issued share capital in Auteco Minerals (Canada) Pty Ltd (Auteco Minerals) to Bellavista; and
- assign its rights and interests in certain intercompany loans receivable due by Auteco Minerals (Loans Receivable) to Bellavista,
for total upfront consideration of 60 million Bellavista shares and contingent consideration of 50 million Bellavista performance rights (the terms of which are detailed further below) (together, the Transaction).
Auteco Minerals, via its wholly owned Canadian incorporated subsidiaries, holds:
- a 70% interest, with the right to acquire an additional 10% for an 80% interest, in the Pickle Crow Project tenements which are 100% held by PC Gold Inc. (No. 002151484) (PC Gold) (which includes a long-term lease of certain granted mining tenements) as set out in Part A of Annexure A; and
- a 100% interest in the:
- Pickle Crow Project tenements as set out in Part B of Annexure A; and
- Sioux Lookout Project tenements as set out in Part C of Annexure A.
Transaction Rationale
- The Transaction is value accretive and enables eligible FireFly shareholders to directly participate in the future performance of Bellavista while allowing FireFly to crystalise value for non-core assets
- FireFly will retain exposure to potential upside through milestone participation
- FireFly achieves portfolio simplification, reduced capital requirements and reduced management distraction
- Bellavista provides unique access to a blue chip resource-focused register and high quality executive management team
- Able to transact quickly with limited execution risk (including no requirement for ASX re-compliance by Bellavista) enabling FireFly to capitalise on the current strong gold price
- Bellavista likely to be highly attractive to institutional investor (scale, team, liquidity, etc.)
FireFly considers there to be strong strategic rationale for the Transaction, as it enables FireFly shareholders to retain exposure to the Ontario Gold Assets through their shareholding both in Bellavista and in FireFly (to the extent any Contingent Consideration Performance Rights are converted to Bellavista shares), while FireFly focuses its efforts on accelerating the development of the world class Green Bay Copper-Gold Project.
Bellavista is expected to have sufficient resources and a high quality, focused management team led by former De Grey Mining Ltd executives Glenn Jardine and Peter Canterbury. This will enable Bellavista to further explore and develop the Ontario Gold Assets and optimise their potential value, presenting a stronger prospect of delivering immediate value for FireFly shareholders. In particular, significant results from early-stage regional exploration targets at the Pickle Crow Gold Project demonstrate the immense potential to expand on its current high grade Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 11.9Mt at 7.2g/t for 2.8Moz gold (see BVR ASX release today).
Terms of the Transaction
Consideration
On satisfaction of the Conditions (defined below) and completion of the Transaction, Bellavista will issue FireFly the following securities:
- 60 million fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of Bellavista (Upfront Consideration Shares); and
- 50 million Bellavista performance rights (Contingent Consideration Performance Rights) in three tranches which vest and, at FireFly's election, convert into Bellavista shares on a one-for-one basis upon the satisfaction of the following milestones:
- 30 million Contingent Consideration Performance Rights, which shall vest upon Bellavista completing 10,000m of drilling at the Pickle Crow Project within 5 years after their issue date (Milestone 1);
- approximately 6.7 million Contingent Consideration Performance Rights, which shall vest upon Bellavista announcing a minimum 5 million ounce Mineral Resource Estimate in respect of the area covered by the Ontario Gold Assets with a category of Inferred or higher (inclusive of the existing 2.8 million ounce Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate) at a minimum grade of 5g/t of gold, reported in accordance with the JORC Code 2012 (or any update or subsequent edition), at any time within 5 years after their issue date (Milestone 2); and
- approximately 13.3 million Contingent Consideration Performance Rights, which shall vest upon Bellavista announcing it has produced of at least 200,000 ounces of gold from the area covered by the Ontario Gold Assets at any time within 5 years after their issue date (Milestone 3),
(together, the Consideration Securities).
The total deemed aggregate value of the Consideration Securities is up to A$86.1 million6.
The Milestone 2 and Milestone 3 Contingent Consideration Performance Rights:
- may be settled in cash (in lieu of Bellavista shares) at FireFly's election, where the Contingent Consideration Performance Rights vest before their expiry date; and
- must be settled in cash where the applicable Milestone is achieved after the expiry of the Contingent Consideration Performance Rights,
and, in either case, where a cash settlement is elected or required, it will be satisfied by the payment of:
- A$5,000,000 upon the occurrence of Milestone 2; and
- A$10,000,000 upon the occurrence of Milestone 3.
Based on the current Bellavista capital structure as at the date of this announcement, the Transaction provides FireFly and its shareholders the potential to own up to approximately 40% of Bellavista7.

COMPLIANCE STATEMENTS
Mineral Resource Estimate – Green Bay Project
The Mineral Resource Estimate for the Green Bay Project referred to in this announcement and set out in Appendix A was first reported in the Company's ASX announcement dated 18 November 2025, titled 'Mineral Resource increases 51% to 1.4Mt of copper and 1.1Moz of gold' and is also set out in the Technical Report for the Ming Copper-Gold Mine, titled 'National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report, FireFly Metals Ltd, Green Bay Ming Mine Copper-Gold Project, Newfoundland' with an issue date of 1 December 2025 and a Mineral Resource effective date of 18 November 2025, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Mineral Resource Estimate – Little Deer
The Mineral Resource Estimate for Little Deer referred to in this announcement was first reported in the Company's ASX announcement dated 29 October 2024, titled 'Resource Increases 42% to 1.2Mt of contained metal at 2% Copper Eq' and is also set out in the Technical Report for the Little Deer Copper Project, titled 'Technical Report and Updated Mineral Resource Estimate of the Little Deer Complex Copper Deposits, Newfoundland, Canada' with an effective date of 26 June 2024, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Mineral Resource Estimate – Pickle Crow Project
The Mineral Resource Estimate for the Pickle Crow Project referred to in this announcement was first reported in the Company's ASX announcement dated 4 May 2023, titled 'High-Grade Inferred Gold Resource Grows to 2.8Moz at 7.2g/t' and is also set out in the Technical Report for the Pickle Crow Project, titled 'NI 43-101 Technical Report Mineral Resource Estimate Pickle Crow Gold Project, Ontario, Canada' with an effective date of 29 November 2024, as amended on 11 June 2025, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Metal equivalents
Metal equivalents for the Mineral Resource Estimates have been calculated at a copper price of US$8,750/t, gold price of US$2,500/oz and silver price of US$25/oz. Individual Mineral Resource grades for the metals are set out in Appendix A of this announcement.
Copper equivalent was calculated based on the formula CuEq(%) = Cu(%) + (Au(g/t) x 0.82190) + (Ag(g/t) x 0.00822).
Metallurgical factors have been applied to the metal equivalent calculation. Copper recovery used was 95%. Historical production at the Ming Mine has a documented copper recovery of ~96%. Precious metal (gold and silver) metallurgical recovery was assumed at 85% on the basis of historical recoveries achieved at the Ming Mine in addition to historical metallurgical test work to increase precious metal recoveries.
In the opinion of the Company, all elements included in the metal equivalent calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold based on current market conditions, metallurgical test work, the Company's operational experience and, where relevant, historical performance achieved at the Green Bay project whilst in operation.

- FireFly Metals Ltd Mineral Resource Estimates for the Green Bay Copper-Gold Project, incorporating the Ming Deposit and Little Deer Complex, are prepared and reported in accordance with the JORC Code 2012 and NI 43-101.
- Mineral Resources have been reported at a 1.0% copper cut-off grade.
- Metal equivalents for the Mineral Resource Estimates have been calculated at a copper price of US$8,750/t, gold price of US$2,500/oz and silver price of US$25/oz. Metallurgical recoveries have been set at 95% for copper and 85% for both gold and silver. These assumptions are made of the basis of historical production at the Ming Mine and additional metallurgical test work. Copper equivalent was calculated based on the formula: CuEq(%) = Cu(%) + (Au(g/t) x 0.82190) + (Ag(g/t) x 0.00822).
- Totals may vary due to rounding.
