Business Update

 

Pipeline Progress and Treasury Deployment Update

 

Bluebird Mining Ventures Ltd (LSE: BMV), the gold streaming and treasury
company, is pleased to provide the following update ahead of its Final Results
for the 12-month period ended 31 December 2025, which the Company expects to
publish by the end of April 2026.

 

BMV has continued its progress across its investment pipeline and treasury
platform, marking the transition from infrastructure build-out to active
capital deployment.

 

Deal Pipeline Progressing

 

BMV is in advanced discussions across a range of opportunities targeting
short-duration paybacks and high returns. The Company is advancing a portfolio
of asset-backed opportunities across gold streaming, bitcoin infrastructure,
and powered land, alongside establishing a treasury capability designed to
enhance returns through disciplined capital deployment.

 

Gold Streaming and Raptor Capital International Ltd ("Raptor") Partnership

 

BMV, in partnership with Raptor, is engaged across a pipeline of
gold-streaming opportunities.

 

The Company is progressing a secured gold streaming transaction over the
Crawford Gold Project in Western Australia. The transaction is expected to
have the following key parameters:

·      US$15M investment securing delivery of 6,265 oz over c.24 months

·      Payback: c.11.5 months

·      Internal Rate of Return ("IRR"): c.130%

 

The asset is a development ready open pit free dig gold mine recovering the
gold through a heap leach process, enabling low capital intensity and rapid
cash flow generation. The investment is structured with senior security,
including asset-level collateral and step-in rights. The Company will provide
further details on the transaction as and when appropriate.

 

In addition, BMV is engaged across a broader pipeline in partnership with
Raptor, comprising  approximately:

·      2.0Moz resource base

·      55,000 oz potential delivery

·      276M indicative value

 

BMV's focus remains on short-duration, production or near-production assets.
Raptor provides innovative finance to medium scale mining operations enabling
them to initiate or increase production. The team has decades of experience in
the mining industry, financing, building and operating precious and base metal
mines.

 

Bitcoin Infrastructure Opportunities

 

BMV is also progressing a portfolio of bitcoin-linked cash flow opportunities
across infrastructure and contracted exposure:

·     Texas, USA (4.8MW mining): c.US$2.3M investment over three years,
generating c.US$2.5M annual revenue (c.13% IRR), providing stable contracted
cash flow

·    British Columbia, Canada (3MW hydro): c.US$3.35M annual revenue
(c.47% IRR), scalable, power-advantaged operation

·     Pennsylvania, USA (infrastructure operator): c.US$61.2M annual
revenue (c.73% IRR), higher-return infrastructure exposure

·   Hashrate contracts: US$100k-$500k tickets over approximately six
months, targeting around c.15-40% returns, enabling short-duration capital
rotation

 

Powered Land

 

The Company is also advancing opportunities to acquire and develop
energy-enabled land positions, targeting value creation through power access
and infrastructure development.

 

Treasury Platform and Infrastructure established

 

BMV has established its core treasury infrastructure, including custody,
exchange connectivity, and on-chain execution capability. Initial transactions
have been completed to validate execution, settlement, and risk controls. The
platform is now operational and being deployed alongside the Company's
investment activities.

 

BMV's treasury is structured around three core assets:

·      Bitcoin as the primary productive reserve

·      Tether Gold (XAUT) providing tokenised gold exposure with yield
optionality

·      Physical gold as an unencumbered balance sheet anchor

 

The Company selectively deploys capital across lending, market-neutral
strategies, liquidity provision, and structured products. Indicative yields
achieved to date include approximately 4% on physical gold lending and
approximately 20% on Tether Gold structured products.

 

Integrated Model

 

BMV's approach combines:

·      Origination of asset-backed cash flows

·      Capture of proceeds within treasury

·      Redeployment into yield strategies

·      Recycling of capital into new opportunities

 

This creates a repeatable model designed to enhance returns through continuous
capital reuse.

 

Legacy Assets

 

The Company continues to undertake a strategic review of its legacy portfolio,
comprising historical interests in gold mining assets in Asia. Based on work
completed to date, the Board does not currently expect these assets to be
monetised in the medium to long term and is therefore exploring potential
disposal options. No decisions have been finalised, and further updates will
be provided as appropriate.

 

Sath Ganesarajah, Chief Executive Officer of BMV, said: "We have made strong
progress across our pipeline as we execute our gold streaming and treasury
strategy. BMV is in advanced discussions on a number of potential transactions
that meet our criteria of short-duration paybacks and attractive returns. Our
focus remains on closing these pipeline opportunities, scaling our treasury
deployment, and integrating both into a unified capital framework. Our
objective is to build a scalable platform capable of compounding capital
through a combination of asset ownership and active treasury management. We
look forward to updating the market as these opportunities progress."

 

While the Board believes BMV has a strong pipeline of opportunities, there can
be no guarantee at this stage that any of the above transactions will be
completed.
