(TSXV: WGO) (OTCQX: WHGOF) (FSE: 29W) announced on July 21, 2026 that it has filed the management information circular and related meeting materials for its annual general and special meeting of shareholders to be held on August 11, 2026.

The technical report, titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Bridget Property in the Dawson Range Copper - Gold Belt, Casino area, Yukon, Canada," was prepared by Jean Pautler, P.Geo., of JP Exploration Services Inc., with an effective date and report date of May 15, 2026.

Key Highlights

  • The annual general and special meeting is scheduled for August 11, 2026, at which shareholders will be asked to vote on the Arrangement Resolution approving the spin-out.
  • The spin-out is structured as a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), pursuant to an arrangement agreement between the Company and Spinco dated May 5, 2026.
  • Shareholders will receive one (1) Spinco share for every five (5) common shares of White Gold (WGO Shares) held immediately prior to the effective date of the spin-out, distributed as a dividend-in-kind.
  • There will be no change in shareholders' holdings in the Company as a result of the spin-out.

  • The board of directors unanimously recommends that shareholders vote FOR the Arrangement Resolution.
  • The Company engaged Equity Catalyst Partners for a term of six (6) months to provide marketing services designed to enhance White Gold's investor visibility and awareness.

Strategic and Operational Context

According to the Company, the board believes the spin-out is in the best interests of the Company. The board stated the arrangement will provide shareholders with direct exposure to a portfolio of critical mineral exploration projects to be advanced by a dedicated team and resources, which portfolio is expected to benefit from a supportive policy environment while providing shareholders with focused exposure to commodities that are increasingly central to Canada's long-term economic and supply chain strategies.

Chief Executive Officer David D'Onofrio stated: "We are very excited to be advancing the proposed W2 Spin-Out designed to unlock the value of our prospective critical mineral projects by creating a dedicated publicly listed vehicle, with shares to be distributed to White Gold shareholders, as we continue to advance and execute on our stated milestones for 2026. With three drills now turning on our largest ever diamond drill program across our flagship White Gold project, which ranks among Canada's highest-grade undeveloped open-pit gold resources, designed to pursue continued resource growth and make more new discoveries, the upcoming maiden Preliminary Economic Assessment, and more, we believe 2026 has the potential to be a transformational year for White Gold."
