PICKERING, Ontario – TheNewswire - February 9, 2026 - Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE: RFR) (OTC: RFHRF) (FSE: 9RR) (“Renforth” or the “Company”), is pleased to inform shareholders of positive developments at our Parbec Gold Deposit, our Victoria critical minerals polymetallic deposit and various corporate matters as follows;

 

Parbec Gold Deposit

Renforth has resumed the chipping and stripping program which was paused in November, targeting a permitted area within the open pit footprint and above the planned location of the underground bulk sample, alongside the termination of the underground decline.

 

Formal exchanges have been initiated with the MRNF and MELCC to confirm the appropriate permitting pathway for the bulk sample. The feedback received has been positive and confirms the regulatory feasibility of the bulk sample project.

 

The ATI permitting process for the bulk sample program has been initiated, as has the environmental base line study. The geological resource model is being reviewed and updated with a focus on an underground mining scenario.

 

Victoria Nickel Sulphide Polymetallic Open Pit Deposit

Renforth has received the results from the samples of witness core from various lithologies tested for platinum and palladium, successfully proving that these metals form a part of the mineralized ultramafic package at Victoria. Further mineralogical investigation will define in which mineral phase these elements are present and where they are located in the minerals assemblage.

With this information future assaying will include these elements this, combined with the now complete testing of witness core for the current resource, will allow the inclusion of platinum and palladium in the next resource statement.

 

Financing

Renforth has completed the previously announced financing with an additional $30,000 in common share units sold and $15,000 in 2026 flow through shares sold.

 

Options Issuance

Renforth has issued a total of 8,850,000 options exercisable at $0.05 for a period of five years to certain officers, director and consultants to the Company.
