Serabi Gold plc (“Serabi” or the “Company”) (AIM:SRB, TSX:SBI, OTCQX:SRBIF), the Brazilian focused gold mining and development company, announces it has been informed that Greenstone Resources II LP (“Greenstone”), an existing shareholder in the Company, has entered into a binding agreement to sell 15,146,902 shares (representing approximately 19.99% of the issued share capital of the Company) to Classe Roca Magma Multiestrategia Responsabilidade Limitada do SSF IV Coinvestmento I Fundo de Investimento em Participações an investment fund managed by Starboard Asset Ltda (“Starboard”). Starboard is a leading private equity firm in Brazil.

Serabi has been informed by Greenstone that the share sale and purchase agreement between Greenstone and Starboard (the “Agreement”) is unconditional and is expected to be completed within a few weeks.

Mr Mike Hodgson, CEO of Serabi commented, “Greenstone have been a long standing and highly supportive shareholder, but given recent share price performance, I recognise their desire to monetise some of their investment when an opportunity arises. Starboard have been known to Serabi for some time and with their Brazilian footprint, will, I am sure, be an excellent shareholder for the Company.

A spokesperson for Starboard commented; “We are thrilled to have this opportunity to become an investor in Serabi, acquiring just under 20% of the Company through this private transaction with Greenstone. We would like to express our appreciation for Greenstone’s long-standing commitment and support to Serabi over the years. We feel that with our local knowledge and experience we can bring a complementary perspective at the shareholder level.

“Over the past two years, we have been closely following Serabi’s impressive operational progress. Starboard’s intention is to support the management and reinforce the existing strategy, contributing to Serabi’s future and to value creation for all stakeholders.”

Assuming the Agreement is completed Greenstone will continue to own 3,936,492 shares representing 5.20% of the issued share capital of the Company. Starboard will own 15,146,902 shares representing 19.9999% of the issued share capital of the Company.

Assay Results

Assay results reported within this release include those provided by the Company's own on-site laboratory facilities at Palito and have not yet been independently verified. Serabi closely monitors the performance of its own facility against results from independent laboratory analysis for quality control purpose. As a matter of normal practice, the Company sends duplicate samples derived from a variety of the Company's activities to accredited laboratory facilities for independent verification. Since mid-2019, over 10,000 exploration drill core samples have been assayed at both the Palito laboratory and certified external laboratory, in most cases the ALS laboratory in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. When comparing significant assays with grades exceeding 1 g/t gold, comparison between Palito versus external results record an average over-estimation by the Palito laboratory of 6.7% over this period. Based on the results of this work, the Company's management are satisfied that the Company's own facility shows sufficiently good correlation with independent laboratory facilities for exploration drill samples. The Company would expect that in the preparation of any future independent Reserve/Resource statement undertaken in compliance with a recognized standard, the independent authors of such a statement would not use Palito assay results without sufficient duplicates from an appropriately certificated laboratory.
