Finlay Minerals Announces Closing of Non-Brokered Private Placement of Flow-Through Shares and Non-Flow-Through Units
/NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR THROUGH U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES/ VANCOUVER, BC, June 9, 2025 /CNW/ - Finlay Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: FYL) (OTCQB: FYMNF) ("Finlay" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed its non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement"), previously announced on May 26, 2025 and June 4, 2025, consisting in the issuance of: (i) 11,206,088 common shares of the Company issued on a flow-through basis under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (each, a "FT Share") at a price of $0.11 per FT Share, and (ii) 4,400,000 non-flow-through units of the Company (each, a "NFT Unit") at a price of $0.10 per NFT Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $1,672,670. Each NFT Unit was comprised of one non-flow-through common share of the Company (each, a "NFT Share") and one non-flow-through common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant is exercisable by the holder thereof to acquire one NFT Share at an exercise price of $0.20 per NFT Share until June 9, 2027, subject to acceleration as described in the Company's press release dated June 4, 2025. The Company intends to use the gross proceeds of the Private Placement for exploration of the Company's SAY, JJB and Silver Hope properties, and for general working capital purposes, as more particularly described in the amended and restated offering document in respect of the Private Placement filed on under the Company's profile. The Company will use the gross proceeds from the issuance of FT Shares to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" that qualify as "flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures", as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada). The Private Placement was conducted pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions and in reliance on the Coordinated Blanket Order 45-935 – Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption. The securities issued to purchasers in the Private Placement are not subject to a hold period under applicable Canadian securities laws. The securities issued to certain insiders of the Company that participated in the Private Placement are subject to a hold period expiring on October 10, 2025 in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). The Private Placement is subject to the final approval of the TSXV. The Company paid aggregate cash finder's fees of $89,196 and granted 829,145 non-transferable finder warrants (each, a "Finder Warrant") to arm's length finders of the Company, as compensation for locating purchasers in the Private Placement. Each Finder Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one non-flow-through common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.20 per share until June 9, 2027. The Finder Warrants and the common shares issued on exercise thereof are subject to a hold period expiring on October 10, 2025 in accordance with applicable securities laws. Gordon Steblin, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, participated in the Private Placement by subscribing for 200,000 FT Shares, which constitutes a related party transaction pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). There has not been a material change in the percentage of the outstanding securities of the Company that are owned by Mr. Steblin as a result of his participation in the Private Placement. The Company is exempt from the requirements to obtain a formal valuation and minority shareholder approval in connection with the participation of the insider in the Private Placement in reliance on the exemptions contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, as the fair market value of the insider participation does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization as determined in accordance with MI 61-101. The Company obtained approval by the board of directors of the Company to the Private Placement. No materially contrary view or abstention was expressed or made by any director of the Company in relation thereto. The Company did not file a material change report less than 21 days before the expected closing date of the Private Placement as the insider participation was not settled until shortly prior to closing and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in the United States or in any other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The securities have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements thereunder.

Highly successful raising leaves FireFly with $135m to fund multi-pronged growth strategy
/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES./ Proceeds from the raising to be used to accelerate exploration campaign with seven rigs to drive rapid value by increasing and upgrading the Mineral Resource while conducting mining studies FireFly has received firm commitments totalling approximately A$95m (before costs) via a charity flow-through offering, two-tranche institutional placement, and Canadian bought deal financing FireFly also intends to undertake a non-underwritten Share Purchase Plan to raise up to an additional A$5m (before costs) at the same offer price as the two-tranche institutional placement FireFly will receive an average price of A$1 per share in the raising, representing a discount of just 2.9% to the last sale price, after allowing for the Canadian flow-through premium PERTH, Australia, June 9, 2025 /CNW/ - FireFly Metals Ltd (ASX: FFM) (TSX: FFM) (FireFly or Company) is pleased to announce a highly successful equity raising which ensures the Company is set for substantial ongoing growth through its Green Bay Copper-Gold Project in Canada. FireFly has received firm commitments to raise up to ~A$95 million (before costs) by the issue of up to approximately 94.7 million fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (New Shares) under the Equity Raising (defined below). By utilising the Canadian flow-through provisions, the Company will receive an average price of A$1 per New Share, which is a discount of just 2.9% to the last sale price. FireFly Managing Director Steve Parsons said: "The overwhelming demand for the raising reflects the quality and growth outlook at Green Bay, our commitment to a multi-rig exploration campaign and the demand among global investors for top-shelf copper-gold projects. "The combination of the exceptional Green Bay asset, our proven exploration team and our A$135m cash war chest is the ideal recipe for growth. "This outlook is further enhanced by the shortage of such outstanding projects which can meet investors' surging appetite for copper-gold exposure". Equity Raising Details The equity raising will be completed in three parts (together, the Equity Raising), comprising: ~A$11.2 million (~C$10.0 million) charity flow-through placement to Canadian investors priced at approximately A$1.49 per New Share, which represents a 44.6% premium to FireFly's last closing price on Wednesday, 4 June 2025, and a 55.0% premium to the offer price under the Institutional Placement of A$0.96 per New Share (Charity Flow-Through Placement); ~A$54.9 million two-tranche institutional placement at the offer price of A$0.96 per New Share, which represents a 6.8% discount to FireFly's last closing price and a 7.2% discount to FireFly's 10-day volume weighted average price up to and including Wednesday, 4 June 2025 (Institutional Placement); and ~A$28.8 million (~C$25.8 million) fully underwritten Canadian bought deal offering with BMO Capital Markets. Concurrently with the Equity Raising, FireFly is also offering Eligible Shareholders (defined below) the opportunity to participate in a non-underwritten Share Purchase Plan (SPP) to raise up to an additional A$5,000,000 before costs (with the ability to accept oversubscriptions, at the discretion of the Company). Charity Flow-Through Placement The Company has received firm commitments under the Charity Flow-Through Placement to raise approximately C$10.0 million (~A$11.2 million)1, before costs, through the issue of approximately 7.6 million New Shares at an issue price of approximately C$1.32 (A$1.49) per New Share (Flow-Through Shares) to be issued as Canadian "flow-through shares", which provide tax incentives to those investors for certain exploration expenditures that qualify under the Income Tax Act (Canada).

(PearTree) and Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Limited (Canaccord Genuity), Canaccord Genuity will facilitate the secondary sale of the Flow-Through Shares acquired by PearTree clients under the Charity Flow-Through Placement to sophisticated and professional investors by way of a block trade at A$0.96 per Flow-Through Share. The tax benefits associated with the Flow-Through Shares are available only to the initial investors (who are Canadian residents) and not to any other person who acquires the Flow-Through Shares through the on-sale or transfer of those Flow-Through Shares. _______________________________ 1 Based on an implied exchange rate of 0.8890.

The Green Bay Copper-Gold Project currently hosts a Mineral Resource prepared in accordance with the 2012 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC Code 2012) and Canadian National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (NI 43-101) of 24.4Mt of Measured and Indicated Resources at 1.9% for 460Kt CuEq and 34.5Mt of Inferred Resources at 2% for 690Kt CuEq. The Company has a clear strategy to rapidly grow the copper-gold Mineral Resource to demonstrate a globally significant copper-gold asset. FireFly has commenced a 130,000m diamond drilling program. FireFly holds a 70% interest in the high-grade Pickle Crow Gold Project in Ontario. The current Inferred Resource stands at 11.9Mt at 7.2g/t for 2.8Moz gold, with exceptional discovery potential on the 500km2 tenement holding. The Company also holds a 90% interest in the Limestone Well Vanadium-Titanium Project in Western Australia. For further information regarding FireFly Metals Ltd please visit the ASX platform (ASX:FFM) or the Company's website or SEDAR+ at COMPLIANCE STATEMENTS Mineral Resources Estimate – Green Bay Project The Mineral Resource Estimate for the Green Bay Project referred to in this announcement and set out at Appendix A 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 Reports for the Ming Copper Gold Mine, titled "National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report, FireFly Metals Ltd., Ming Copper-Gold Project, Newfoundland" with an effective date of November 29, 2024 and 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 June 26, 2024, each of which is available on SEDAR+ at The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original announcement and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the Mineral Resource Estimate in the original announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed. Metal equivalents for the Mineral Resource Estimate mineralisation 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 at 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 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 calculations have a reasonable potential to be sold and recovered based on current market conditions, metallurgical test work, and historical performance achieved at the Green Bay project whilst in operation. Mineral Resources 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 November 29, 2024 available on SEDAR+ at The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the original announcement and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the Mineral Resource Estimate in the original announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed.

Mr Gutierrez is a Competent Person as defined in the JORC Code 2012 and a Qualified Person as defined in NI 43-101. FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION This announcement may contain certain forward-looking statements and projections, including statements regarding the Equity Raising, the SPP, and FireFly's plans, forecasts and projections with respect to its mineral properties and programs, including the use of proceeds of the Equity Raising and SPP and the completion and expected closings of the Equity Raising and SPP.

Sobot Reveals "AI-First" Strategy for Delivering Human-like Customer Service
Reshaping AI-Powered Customer Service and CX with Five Pillars of Next-Gen AI NEW YORK, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sobot, a leading AI customer contact solution provider, unveiled its "AI-First" strategy at a media launch event this month. The move elevates Sobot AI with five pillars, including Omnichannel AI, Scenario-Based AI, Multi-Faceted AI, Generative AI and Secure AI to create an experience-led, easy-to-use, and efficiency-driven solution. Sobot Aims to Deliver Intelligent yet More Human-like Service AI has quickly become central to digital transformation in customer service. According to MarketsandMarkets, the global AI-for-customer-service market was valued at USD 12.06 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 47.82 billion by 2030. Yet 52% of customers prefer human interaction for its empathy, while another 42% favor a blend of AI and human support. While some customers find AI insufficiently human, its adoption in customer service is now irreversible. Customer service solution providers must therefore balance customer expectations with the power of AI. "Fed up with limited contextual comprehension, inflexible responses, and poor emotional perception, customers want their needs understood and met," said Yi Xu, CEO of Sobot. "Our 'AI-First' strategy doesn't just automate processes; it aims to provide intelligent but more human-like services." Highlight of Sobot's AI-First Strategy: Five Pillars of Next-Gen AI Omnichannel AI - Ensuring Seamless, Efficient Experience Across All Channels Sobot AI integrates websites, mobile apps, social platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, plus email, phone calls and SMS. Beyond online chat, it includes AI voicebot that can handle inbound and outbound calls. Sobot AI also unifies and connects information of all channels, giving customers a seamless experience wherever they start. Scenario-Based AI - Providing Industry-Specific Solutions Sobot AI is never limited to fixed functions, it keeps upgrading and extending, making it suitable for various industries. Designed especially for retail and e-commerce, Sobot AI spans the entire purchase journey. It answers pre-sales inquiries 24/7, converting browsers into buyers; it sends personalized recommendations during checkout to increase the sales volume; it resolves post-sales issues quickly to boost customer satisfaction. Multi-Faceted AI - Supporting Customers, Agents and Administrators Sobot AI supports multiple roles during the process of customer service. For customers, Sobot AI Agent learns from the knowledge base to deliver accurate, humanized service. For human agents, Sobot AI Copilot suggests replies and drafts summaries, raising efficiency. For administrators, Sobot AI Insight supplies detailed dashboards to optimize operations. Generative AI - Combining Multiple Advanced LLMs and SLMs Powered by leading LLMs (Large Language Models) such as OpenAI and DeepSeek, Sobot AI boasts powerful generative capacity able to decompose knowledge, retrieve the most relevant content, and intelligently composes accurate responses. Sobot AI is also powered by several SLMs (Small Language Models), which is helpful to create industry-oriented solutions, enhancing the accuracy and professionalism of customer service. Secure AI - Guaranteeing Global Data Privacy and Compliance Sobot aligns its platform with country-specific regulations and holds a number of internationally recognized certifications in information, cloud, and system security. Regional data centers in the United States, Europe, Singapore, and other locations ensure reliable performance worldwide. Sobot is Committed to Reshaping Customer Service with Humanized AI Alongside its "AI-First" strategy, Sobot has refreshed its website, especially the AI Solution page so customers can easily learn more about the basic features, use cases, benefits, and more of Sobot AI. And just as what is shown in its website, Sobot's new generation of AI is committed to creating "experience-led, easy-to-use and efficiency-driven AI for CX". Xu added, "Our strategy prioritizes customer experience, but it is equally valuable for businesses. The five pillars are its cornerstone, yet their essence is humanization. Sobot will continue to practice this vision, helping more customers and companies reshape service through humanized AI."
