Imperial Reports Fall of Ground Incident at Red Chris Mine
At the time of the initial incident, three contractor employees were working more than 500 metres beyond the affected zone and were asked to relocate to a designated refuge station before a subsequent fall of ground blocked the access way. Following the first event, contact was established with the individuals and confirmation was received that they had safely relocated to one of multiple self-contained refuge bays. The refuge stations are equipped with adequate food, water and ventilation to support an extended stay.
The second fall of ground event subsequently restricted communication. To ensure focus on the response efforts, a standdown of operations at Red Chris has been implemented. With the support of industry, specialist teams from nearby mine sites are being assembled to respond to the situation.
All appropriate emergency response protocols were activated immediately. Newmont, the mine operator, is actively assessing all methods and technologies available to restore communication and safely bring the workers to surface. The priority remains on ensuring the safety of the three individuals and of the emergency response teams supporting this effort.
Further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.

Mainstreet Delivers 15th Straight Quarter of Double-Digit Growth Amid Economic Uncertainty
CALGARY, Alberta--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mainstreet Equity Corp. (TSX: MEQ) today announced its 15th consecutive quarter of double-digit year-over-year growth, reinforcing the strength and resilience of its business model amidst ongoing global economic uncertainty. Funds from operations ('FFO') increased 10%, while net operating income ('NOI') increased 16% and rental revenues grew 10%. Same asset NOI rose 12% while revenues on a same-asset basis grew 6%. Operating margins increased from 63.9% in Q3 2024 to 67.5% in Q3 2025, and from 64.5% to 67.9% on the same asset properties over the same period. 'Despite persistent uncertainty—from global trade disruptions to changing policies—Mainstreet has continued to perform and grow,' said Bob Dhillon, Founder and CEO of Mainstreet Equity Corp. 'Our long-standing strategy of acquiring and revitalizing undervalued and underperforming mid-market rental assets has created a consistent pattern of non-dilutive growth. While we kept our powder relatively dry in the first two quarters, MEQ is ready to unleash $815 million of liquidity to generate a new wave of counter-cyclical growth going into 2026. Our goal is to turn today's uncertainty into tomorrow's opportunity—just as we've done for the past 25 years.' The Mainstreet Mission: We believe the current operating environment, including continued uncertainty stemming from global trade, economic headwinds, and immigration policy, presents an opportunity for accelerated acquisitions throughout the end of the year and fiscal 2026, potentially paving the way for another new phase of counter-cyclical growth at Mainstreet. As always, we remain passionately committed to our role as a crucial provider of quality, affordable homes for Canadians, offering renovated apartments and customer services at an average mid-market rental rate of $1250.

The Mainstreet model focuses on delivering critical housing spaces needed in mid-market rentals (average $1250 rent), with a focus on value-added renovations in existing, but underperforming, assets across Western Canada as opposed to costly and risky new builds. This focus, supported through stable market fundamentals, is backed by steady demand for mid-market rental units across urban centres in Western Canada, driven by our product's affordability, accessibility to inner city millennials, students, and new Canadians, and continues to deliver significant shareholder returns even in the face of broader economic uncertainty. We believe that Mainstreet's key strengths are: Growth without Dilution: MEQ continues 100% organic, non-dilutive growth. Highly affordable rent: MEQ's mid-market rental focus creates opportunities for a significant population across Canada who need housing options. This market focus ensures stable demand despite persistent economic uncertainty, as more than 60% of Canadians make less than $50,000 annually. Portfolio Diversity: Mainstreet's presence in four provinces, with a year-to-date number of 18,771 units across its footprint, is insulated from regional swings and local trends. Challenges Canada's – and the global – economic outlook continues to be impacted by persistent uncertainty. International Students, Immigration, and International Workers Following the recent federal election, temporary reductions in immigration numbers –including international students – have been implemented for two years. This federally driven reduction could have impacts on rental demand in certain markets; however, we believe that current rates of newcomers, both students and conventional immigrants, still outpace market supply. CMHC data demonstrates vacancy rates are below 4% in the Western Canadian market, with Alberta seeing the highest at 3.4%, followed by Saskatchewan at 2.7%. Both Manitoba (1.7%) and B.C. (1.9%) remain below 2%, which is notable as B.C. represents 42% of Mainstreet's asset value. CMHC data suggests that while some markets are less attractive than they were several quarters back, demand remains high, especially within Mainstreet's target market. Ultimately, this policy change could lead to a reduction in demand and impact rental rates, if trends continue over the longer term. However, with the current housing crisis, mid-market rates, and mid-market spaces trading below replacement costs, restricting new supply in that space, coupled with continued population trends, it is unlikely to significantly impact MEQ's market position. Immigration numbers remain high, and hundreds of thousands of newcomers and students are expected to move to Canada every year, likely ensuring MEQ's proven business model will continue to insulate shareholder value. For example, permanent resident numbers seem to be intact. (Q1 2025, 104,256 immigrants moved to Canada according to Statistics Canada) Supply Canada's rental market continues to see new builds and additions to the available rental stock. While these new units are predominantly in the high-end of market prices, a glut in supply will have consequences for mid-market units as vacancies drive rents lower across the board. While this impact will not be immediate for a vast majority of MEQ's properties, it nonetheless deserves attention as the repercussions across Canada's rental market will be impacted by a continuing expansion in supply. Outlook In Q3, we continued to navigate the challenges and headwinds that have persisted since the beginning of 2025—conditions for which we were well prepared. Our trigger-ready liquidity and resilient business model are ready to build on Mainstreet's proven pattern of turning challenges into opportunities for 25 years. Our team stands ready to deploy a wave of counter-cyclical investment, reinforcing our commitment to creating long-term shareholder value. Trends continue to point to population growth within Alberta specifically (+138,136 in 2024/25) and Western Canada more generally (+233,085 in 2024/25), according to Statistics Canada. With the continued economic opportunity and lower tax rate of Alberta—and affordability more generally across Saskatchewan and Western Canada—it is expected Canadians will continue to move to the west. This could be accelerated through the federal government's new focus on nation-building projects, including projects in Alberta's energy and mining sector. Unleashed economic potential, through fledgling initiatives like a national energy corridor, could spur an even greater focus on the economic opportunity in Alberta, creating additional incentives for Canadians to move to Western Canada. Continued economic uncertainty and lingering concerns regarding inflation, may result in the Bank of Canada maintaining current interest rates or potentially even lowering them in the future. Any decrease in interest rate would have a meaningful impact for MEQ as interest on debt holdings is the largest cost pressure Mainstreet faces. In addition, the demise of the federal consumer carbon tax has led to an overall reduction in costs to the bottom line. Ready to Unleash Growth Mainstreet continues to focus on growing our already sizable footprint within Western Canada, adding 387 units this year despite the pause on acquisitions for the first three quarters. Runway 1. Expanding our portfolio: Using our liquidity position, estimated at $815 million, we believe there is significant opportunity to continue acquiring underperforming assets at attractive valuations. 2. Closing the NOI gap: As of Q3 2025, 12% of Mainstreet's portfolio was going through the stabilization process due largely to high levels of add-value acquisitions. Our management team believes vacancy rates, NOI and FFO will be meaningfully improved as we continue to stabilize units. In the BC market alone, we estimate that the potential upside based on an estimated average monthly mark-to-market gaps for NOI growth is approximately $28 million. Alberta and Saskatchewan markets also have substantial room for mark-to-market catch up. 3. Creating value from existing footprints: We continue to explore opportunities to create larger returns from existing Mainstreet properties through municipalities that have eased zoning restrictions, through subdivisions and optimized residual space. The three-point plan to accomplish this is: Turning unused or residual space within existing buildings into new units (YTD 55 additional units created) Exploring zoning and density relaxations to potentially build new capacity within existing footprint Subdividing residual lands which created more clear title assets on our balance sheet (See page 10 of Q3 2025 report for leger of developable vacant land) 4. Buying back shares: Mainstreet is prepared to buy back shares under our existing NCIB on an opportunistic basis when Mainstreet shares are trading below NAV, to further increase shareholder value.

Kolibri Global Energy Inc. Announces Operations Update
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kolibri Global Energy Inc. (the ' Company ' or ' Kolibri ') (TSX: KEI, NASDAQ: KGEI) is pleased to provide an operations update on its latest wells in its Tishomingo field in Oklahoma. LOVINA WELLS The Lovina 9-16-1H, Lovina 9-16-2H, Lovina 9-16-3H, and Lovina 9-16-4H wells (all 100% working interest) have been successfully fracture stimulated and have been flowing back the fracture stimulation fluid through a conservative controlled flowback, and are in various stages of frack fluid recovery. While the wells are still cleaning up, they have been continuing to increase their production rates as more fracture stimulation fluid is recovered. For the last four days, the 1H well has been averaging 571 Barrels of oil equivalent per day ('BOEPD') with 473 Barrels of oil per day ('BOPD'), the 2H well has been averaging 643 BOEPD with 523 BOPD, the 3H well has been averaging 416 BOEPD, with 339 BOPD and the 4H has been averaging 322 BOEPD with 271 BOPD. The Lovina wells are producing much higher percentages of oil than many of our previously drilled wells. The higher oil percentage and the longer well lengths, with the controlled conservative flowback have led to a longer cleanup cycle compared to past Kolibri wells. Production tubing strings will be run in the wells starting next week, which previously led to significantly higher production rates in the offset well. FORGUSON WELL The Forguson 17-20-3H well has been successfully fracture stimulated and is anticipated to begin its flowback in the next few days. Kolibri is operator and has a 46% working interest in this well, which is testing the economics of our 3,000 acres located on the eastern side of our acreage. BARNES 6-31-2H and 6-31-3H WELLS A drilling rig is scheduled to move in on August 11, 2025, to begin drilling the Barnes 6-31-2H and Barnes 6-31-3H wells. These wells are planned to be 1.5-mile laterals, in which Kolibri has a 99.9% working interest. Once the drilling of both wells is complete, completion operations are planned to occur simultaneously with the two previously drilled Velin wells. Wolf Regener, President and CEO, commented, 'We are thrilled about the high oil percentage of the Lovina wells, which we believe generally leads to higher netbacks for the Company and will lead to slower decline rates. We are also looking forward to seeing what the ultimate productivity of these wells will be. The east side acreage, where the Forguson well is located and Kolibri has approximately 3,000 net acres, is not included in the December 31, 2024, reserve report. The Caney target for the Forguson well has very similar characteristics and thickness to the main part of the field in Kolibri's proved acreage, except that it is shallower. If the Forguson well proves to be economic, in addition to adding cash flow, it could lead to many additional development locations for the Company. We are looking forward to the additional production and cash flow from all of these wells, which we expect will significantly increase the Company's cash flow and add incremental value to our shareholders.' About Kolibri Global Energy Inc. Kolibri Global Energy Inc. is a North American energy company focused on finding and exploiting energy projects in oil and gas. Through various subsidiaries, the Company owns and operates energy properties in the United States. The Company continues to utilize its technical and operational expertise to identify and acquire additional projects in oil and gas. The Company's shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the stock symbol KEI and on the NASDAQ under the stock symbol KGEI. Product Type Disclosure This news release includes references to sales volumes of "oil", "natural gas", and 'barrels of oil equivalent' or 'BOEs'. 'Oil' refers to light crude oil and medium crude oil combined, and "natural gas" refers to shale gas, in each case as defined by NI 51-101. Production from our wells, primarily disclosed in this news release in BOEs, consists of mainly oil and associated wet gas. The wet gas is delivered via gathering system and then pipelines to processing plants where it is treated and sold as natural gas and NGLs. Cautionary Statements In this news release and the Company's other public disclosure: The Company's natural gas production is reported in thousands of cubic feet ("Mcfs"). The Company also uses references to barrels ("Bbls") and barrels of oil equivalent ("Boes") to reflect natural gas liquids and oil production and sales. The references to Boes reflect natural gas, natural gas liquids and oil. Boes may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A Boe conversion ratio of 6 Mcf:1 Bbl is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the current price of crude oil as compared to natural gas is significantly different from the energy equivalency of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value. Discounted and undiscounted net present value of future net revenues attributable to reserves do not represent fair market value. Possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves. There is a 10% probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the sum of proved plus probable plus possible reserves. Readers should be aware that references to initial production rates and other short-term production rates are preliminary in nature and are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance or of ultimate recovery. Readers are referred to the full description of the results of the Company's December 31, 2024 independent reserves evaluation and other oil and gas information contained in its Form 51-101F1 Statement of Reserves Data and Other Oil and Gas Information for the year ended December 31, 2024, which the Company filed on SEDAR+ on March 13, 2025. Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Information Certain statements contained in this news release constitute "forward-looking information" as such term is used in applicable Canadian securities laws and 'forward-looking statements' within the meaning of United States securities laws (collectively, 'forward looking information'), including statements regarding the timing of and expected results from planned wells development, wells performing as anticipated, including anticipated increases in production, cash flow, higher netbacks, rates of return and efficiencies, statements regarding timing of flowback, that the Barnes 6-31-2H and Barnes 6-31-3H wells will be 1.5 mile laterals, statements regarding drilling and completion operations, and statements regarding additional development locations for the Company. Forward-looking information is based on plans and estimates of management and interpretations of data by the Company's technical team at the date the data is provided and is subject to several factors and assumptions of management, including that indications of early results are reasonably accurate predictors of the prospectiveness of the shale intervals, that required regulatory approvals will be available when required, that no unforeseen delays, unexpected geological or other effects, including flooding and extended interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions, equipment failures, permitting delays or labor or contract disputes are encountered, that the necessary labor and equipment will be obtained, that the development plans of the Company and its co-venturers will not change, that the offset operator's operations will proceed as expected by management, that the demand for oil and gas will be sustained, that the price of oil will be sustained or increase, that the gathering system issues will be resolved, that the Company will continue to be able to access sufficient capital through cash flow, debt, financings, farm-ins or other participation arrangements to maintain its projects, and that global economic conditions will not deteriorate in a manner that has an adverse impact on the Company's business, its ability to advance its business strategy and the industry as a whole. Forward-looking information is subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause plans, estimates and actual results to vary materially from those projected in such forward-looking information. Factors that could cause the forward-looking information in this news release to change or to be inaccurate include, but are not limited to, the risk that any of the assumptions on which such forward looking information is based vary or prove to be invalid, including that the Company or its subsidiaries is not able for any reason to obtain and provide the information necessary to secure required approvals or that required regulatory approvals are otherwise not available when required, that unexpected geological results are encountered, that equipment failures, permitting delays, labor or contract disputes or shortages of equipment, labor or materials are encountered, the risks associated with the oil and gas industry (e.g. operational risks in development, exploration and production; delays or changes in plans with respect to exploration and development projects or capital expenditures; the uncertainty of reserve and resource estimates and projections relating to production, costs and expenses, and health, safety and environmental risks, including flooding and extended interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions), the risk of commodity price and foreign exchange rate fluctuations, that the offset operator's operations have unexpected adverse effects on the Company's operations, that completion techniques require further optimization, that production rates do not match the Company's assumptions, that very low or no production rates are achieved, that the gathering system operator doesn't get the issues resolved, that the price of oil will decline, that the Company is unable to access required capital, that occurrences such as those that are assumed will not occur, do in fact occur, and those conditions that are assumed will continue or improve, do not continue or improve, and the other risks and uncertainties applicable to exploration and development activities and the Company's business as set forth in the Company's management discussion and analysis and its annual information form, both of which are available for viewing under the Company's profile at any of which could result in delays, cessation in planned work or loss of one or more leases and have an adverse effect on the Company and its financial condition. The Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, other than as required by applicable law.

TSX futures rise with corporate earnings, tariffs on watch
(Reuters) -Futures for Canada's main stock index on Thursday edged higher with strong corporate earnings boosting sentiment, while investors also weighed the impact of U.S. tariff implementation. Futures on the S&P/TSX index rose 0.6% by 06:15 a.m. ET (1015 GMT), after the TSX hit a fresh record high on Wednesday. U.S. President Donald Trump's higher tariff rates kicked in, with Canada facing a 35% rate after failing to reach a trade agreement ahead of the deadline. Corporate earnings continued in full swing a day after e-commerce firm Shopify became the index's most valuable publicly traded company after delivering an upbeat revenue forecast. On the day, Canadian Natural Resources surpassed expectations for second-quarter profit on higher oil and natural gas production. Space firm MDA beat second-quarter revenue estimates driven by higher work volumes in the Satellite Systems business. Maple Leaf Foods raised its fiscal-year outlook and beat second-quarter analysts' estimates for revenue and profit. Data on Wednesday showed that the downturn in Canada's services economy eased in July with firms more optimistic about the outlook for activity, according to S&P Global's Canada services PMI. In commodities, gold prices edged higher on safe-haven demand, driven by U.S. tariffs, while copper and other base metals rose on U.S.-China trade deal hopes. Oil prices steadied on a potential Trump meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the coming days. Toronto's TSX index climbed to a new record high on Wednesday, boosted by Shopify, with technology shares leading gains.
