The management of Sirios Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SOI) is pleased to announce the repurchase of a significant portion of the royalty on the Aquilon property which had been granted during the strategic investment made by a private investor last January (ref. press releases of 01/17/2022 and 01/27/2022).

In accordance with last January's agreement, Sirios recently paid the sum of $200,000 to buy back three-quarters of the 1% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) royalty, which has therefore been reduced to 0.25%. Sirios had previously obtained a deadline extension for exercising the buyback before July 31, 2022 instead of June 30, in return for an amount of $25,000. In addition, the investor owning this royalty participated in the financing completed last week (ref. press release of 07/28/2022) in order to maintain their share ownership of approximately 9% in Sirios.

Dominique Doucet, President and CEO of Sirios, commented: “We consider the royalty buyback we have just completed to be excellent news given the potential of our high-grade Aquilon gold property. Work was already carried out last June on the property and we intend to continue to move forward in the coming months to relaunch and develop the Aquilon project.”
