Colibri Resource CorporationC
Colibri Resource Corporation (TSXV: CBI) explores precious-metal properties in Mexico. Its 100%-owned El Plomo (EP) Gold Project in Sonora's Caborca Gold Belt is its main asset: a Phase 1 reconnaissance RC program of about 1,815 metres (22 holes at the San Perfecto and Banco de Oro targets and one at West Sahuaro) returned near-surface gold intercepts including 7.5 m at 2.92 g/t Au and 30 m at 0.73 g/t Au at the Plomo claims. In August 2026 Colibri completed the sale of its 49% interest in the Pilar gold-silver project to Tocvan Ventures for C$3.6 million in cash plus a 1% NSR royalty. Two further transactions with Silver Spruce Resources await final TSX Venture approval: Colibri is acquiring Silver Spruce's half of Yaque Minerals, which would give it an effective 60% of the Diamante gold-silver project in the Sierra Madre, and is selling its 50% interest in the Jackie project to Silver Spruce for 166,667 shares and a 1% royalty. No mineral resource has been estimated on any of its projects.

Jurisdiction (40%)6/10
The flagship El Plomo project is in Sonora's Caborca Gold Belt, Mexico.
Infrastructure (40%)6.4/10
Confirmed road access at El Plomo (EP) Gold Project, Caborca Gold Belt, Sonora, Mexico; existing mill, grid power, and tailings facility not yet researched, counted at a neutral 5/10 until established.

No project coordinates on file yet, so distance to a producing mine can't be measured.
Acquisition Susceptibility
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal in the research, a producer that already owns part of the company, is scored from its disclosed strategic shareholders. A producer that is a joint-venture or earn-in partner on the project, rather than a shareholder, isn't captured yet.
How this score is built
- Disclosed pending dealSub-score: Not scored
No pending acquisition or merger disclosed (checked)
Not scored: having no deal in flight isn't held against a company.
Weight 26.25% - Producer's strategic stakeSub-score: Not scored
No producer holds a disclosed stake on file (holder register researched) See holders
Not scored: most juniors that do get bought had no prior toehold, so a missing stake says little either way.
Weight 25% - Distance to a producing mineSub-score: Not yet researched
Distance not yet researched: no project coordinates on file
Distance can't be measured without coordinates, so excluded rather than counted as far.
Weight 22.5% - Lifecycle stageSub-score:1/10
Stage: Grassroots Exploration
Feasibility and permitting score 10, where deals cluster, and production 5.5; earlier stages score less, down to 1 at grassroots.
