1911 Gold Corporation Announces Staged Return of Personnel to Site
Favourable weather conditions and the efforts of emergency crews have significantly reduced wildfire risk in the region. The Town of Bissett and the Company's True North site have remained safe throughout the evacuation period, with no damage to infrastructure. Site access routes have been cleared and deemed safe for travel, and camp facilities remained operational during the evacuation to support the firefighting efforts.
Personnel are returning to the site in a structured and phased manner, and full operations are expected to resume in the coming days. As part of its commitment to the safety and recovery of the region, 1911 Gold continues to provide housing to approximately 40 wildfire personnel who remain active in the area.
"Thanks to the tireless efforts of emergency responders, we are now in a position to resume site activities safely," stated Shaun Heinrichs, President and CEO of 1911 Gold. "We are grateful that both the Town of Bissett and our facilities have remained unharmed, and we remain committed to supporting the firefighting efforts as the region recovers."
The Company plans to recommence exploration and development activities at the True North site, including preparations for an underground drill program that is expected to commence later this summer.

Argo Corporation announces completion of distribution of Preferred Shares, Series A under its special stock dividend and conversion by the holders of its secured convertible debentures
TORONTO, Aug. 20, 2025 /CNW/ - Argo Corporation (" Argo" or the " Company") (TSXV: ARGH), (OTCQX: ARGHF), a leader in next-generation transit solutions, is pleased to announce the completion of the distribution of Preferred Shares, Series A of Argo (the " Series A Preferred Shares") under its previously announced special stock dividend (the " Stock Dividend") and the conversion by the holders thereof, of all of its outstanding 12.0% secured convertible debentures previously issued via private placement (the " Debentures") into units of the Company (" Units"). Special Stock Dividend Argo has completed the distribution of its Series A Preferred Shares under its previously announced Stock Dividend today (the " Distribution Date"). Pursuant to the Stock Dividend, all of the Company's holders of common shares (the " Common Shares") were entitled to receive one Series A Preferred Share for each Common Share held. The Common Shares started trading on a "due-bill" basis at the opening of trading on August 13, 2025 (the " Record Date") and will commence trading on an "ex-distribution" basis (i.e., without the entitlement to receive the Stock Dividend) at the opening of markets on August 21, 2025, the first trading day following the Distribution Date. A due bill attached to each Common Share between the opening of markets on the Record Date and the close of markets on the Distribution Date (the " Due Bill Period"). During the Due Bill Period, any seller of Common Shares was deemed to sell and assign the right to the Stock Dividend to the purchaser of such Common Shares. Accounts for registered shareholders and beneficial shareholders (i.e., those who hold Common Shares through an intermediary) have been, or will be, credited with the Series A Preferred Shares on or about the Distribution Date. The complete rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to the Series A Preferred Shares are set out in the articles of amendment of the Company, which are available under the Company's SEDAR+ profile on Conversion of the Debentures and Early Warning Reporting Disclosure As previously announced by Argo on February 8, 2024, the Company issued the Debentures in an aggregate principal amount of $3,536,400 through a private placement. Each Debenture was convertible into Units at a conversion price of $0.06 per Unit, at the sole option of the holder, any time following the completion of a transaction satisfactory to the holder of such Debenture resulting in the distribution of the shares of FoodsUp Inc. owned by the Corporation, or the value related thereto, to its shareholders. Each Unit consists of one Common Share and one common share purchase warrant (each, a " Warrant"). Each Warrant is exercisable into one Common Share at the exercise price of $0.06 per Warrant at any time prior to February 8, 2026, subject to certain adjustments and acceleration provisions. An aggregate of 58,939,998 Units (consisting of 58,939,998 Common Shares and 58,939,998 Warrants) were issued in connection with the conversion of the Debentures (the " Conversion"). Following the Conversion, there are 197,623,000 Common Shares issued and outstanding, with an additional 58,939,998 issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. In connection with the Conversion, certain holders of Debentures will file early warning reports in respect of their ownership of Common Shares and securities convertible or exercisable into Common Shares. The head office of Argo is located at 101-545 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5V 1M1. Copies of the early warning reports will be available on SEDAR+.
