Denarius Metals Announces Listing of Convertible Debentures on CBOE Canada

Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – February 29, 2024) – Denarius Metals Corp. (TSXV: DSLV) (OTCQX: DNRSF) (“Denarius Metals” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, further to the Company’s news releases dated October 19, 2023 and November 1, 2023, the Senior Unsecured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”) issued pursuant to the previously announced private placement offering (the “Offering”) have been approved for listing on Cboe Canada under the symbol “DSLV.DB” and will begin trading on March 4, 2024 following the expiry of the statutory four-month hold period.

Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman and CEO of Denarius Metals, commented, “The listing of the Debentures provides investors with another avenue to derive value from their securities. As we continue to advance our 100%-owned Zancudo Project in Colombia toward production in 2024 using the net proceeds of the Offering, we believe Denarius Metals is well-positioned to create and deliver significant long-term value from its portfolio of projects in Spain and Colombia to its security holders.”

The Debentures bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum, payable monthly in equal installments and will mature on October 19, 2028. The Debentures will also pay a Gold Premium on the principal amount of the Debentures in cash. The Gold Premium will be paid at the end of each quarter starting January 31, 2025 and will be calculated as a percentage equal to 25% of (i) the amount, if any, by which the London P.M. Fix on the quarterly measurement date exceeds US$1,800 per ounce of gold (the “Floor Price”) divided by (ii) the Floor Price. The principal amount of the Debentures is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of CA$0.45 per common share.
