Core Silver and Arcus Enter Into Definitive Arrangement Agreement for Business CombinationJuly 9, 2026 6:10 PM
ACCESS NewswireVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / July 9, 2026 / Core Silver Corp. (CNSX:CC)(FSE:8ZR)(OTCQB:CCOOF) ("Core Silver") and Arcus Development Group Inc. (TSXV:ADG) ("Arcus", and together with Core Silver, the "Companies") are pleased to announce that, further to their joint news releases dated April 27, 2026 and June 17, 2026, they have entered into an arrangement agreement dated July 9, 2026 (the "Agreement") for an at-market business combination. Pursuant to the Agreement, Core Silver will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Arcus (each whole such common share, an "Arcus Share", and collectively, the "Arcus Shares") on a 1:1 basis (the "Exchange Ratio") in an all share transaction pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement (the "Transaction").Nicholas Rodway, President and CEO of Core Silver, stated: "The Transaction represents an important step forward in the evolution of Core Silver. By acquiring Arcus, we would create a stronger and more diversified exploration company with exposure to multiple district-scale opportunities including Touleary within the Tintina Gold Belt. We believe the combined company, assuming completion of the Transaction, will be well positioned to pursue new discoveries in a region that is rapidly emerging as one of the most prospective mineral belts in North America."Darryl Jones, Interim CEO of Arcus, further commented: "The proposed Transaction provides Arcus shareholders with continued exposure to Touleary while adding the scale, treasury and broader asset base needed to advance a district-scale exploration strategy. Touleary has a drill-confirmed VMS discovery, multiple untested targets and permits in place for the 2026 field season. We believe the combined company would be well positioned to unlock the project's potential."Benefits to ShareholdersCombining Arcus and Core Silver unlocks benefits for both sets of shareholders that would be unavailable on a standalone basis, including:Continued Exposure and Diversification: for Arcus Shareholders, an opportunity to maintain exposure to the Touleary Property and diversifying their portfolio by gaining exposure to Core Silver's Blue Property in the Atlin area of northwestern British Columbia, Canada.Addition of Property: for Core Silver shareholders, the acquisition of Arcus' Touleary Property, consisting of 397 contiguous mineral claims located in west-central Yukon Territory, provides exposure to a highly prospective property that is fully permitted for drilling in 2026 with eight identified drill-ready target areas.Enhanced Market Profile and Financial Capacity: exposure to a combined company with an enhanced capital markets profile, with improved access to capital and an increased capacity to advance its exploration properties.Synergies: a combined company that has two complementary exploration platforms focused in Canada, expected to result in synergies and improved operational and corporate efficiencies.Strengthened Leadership: a combined leadership team with a strong track record of excellent corporate governance and operational execution in the exploration space.Transaction DetailsPursuant to the Agreement, the Transaction will be effected pursuant to a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Arrangement"), resulting in Arcus becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Core Silver. Under the terms of the Agreement and the Exchange Ratio, each holder of Arcus Shares (each, an "Arcus Shareholder") will be entitled to receive one common share of Core Silver (each whole such common share, a "Core Silver Share" , and collectively, the "Core Silver Shares") in exchange for each Arcus Share, such that, upon completion of the Transaction, existing Core Silver and Arcus shareholders are expected to own approximately 60.8% and39.2%, respectively, of the combined company. Arcus' outstanding convertible securities will be treated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, which provides that they will not be subject to the Arrangement and will remain exercisable for Core Silver Shares in accordance with their terms and conditions following the effective date of the Transaction.In accordance with the Agreement, Arcus will proceed with an application to the Supreme Court of British Columbia for an interim order authorizing, among other things, Arcus to call an annual general and special meeting of Arcus Shareholders to approve the Transaction, which must be approved by a special resolution passed by at least 66 2/3 % of the votes cast by Arcus Shareholders (the "Arcus Meeting"). The Arcus Meeting is expected to take place on August 25, 2026. All of the directors and officers of Arcus, who collectively hold approximately 1% and 2.5% of the outstanding Arcus Shares on a non-diluted and fully-diluted basis, respectively, have entered into voting support agreements with Core Silver, pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to vote their Arcus Shares in favour of the Transaction, including any Arcus Shares acquired prior to the record date on exercise of convertible securities or in the market.The Agreement contains customary provisions for a transaction of this nature, including non-solicitation provisions, a right in favour of Core Silver to match any other acquisition proposal, and a termination fee of $150,000 payable by Arcus or Core Silver, respectively, in certain circumstances. Each of Core Silver and Arcus have made customary representations and warranties and covenants in the Agreement, including covenants regarding the conduct of their respective businesses prior to the closing of the Transaction.The Transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to satisfaction of the closing conditions set out in the Agreement and receipt of all required shareholder approvals, court approval, and applicable regulatory approvals, including approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V").Following the completion of the Transaction, it is expected that the Core Silver Shares will continue trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange, the Arcus Shares will be de-listed from the TSX-V, and Arcus will cease to be a reporting issuer in the applicable jurisdictions, in each case subject to applicable regulatory requirements.The Transaction is a result of arm's length negotiations between the Companies and there is no finder's fee associated with the Transaction.Full details of the Transaction, including the Arrangement, and the exchange of securities thereunder, as described above, will be set out in the management information circular of Arcus prepared in connection with the Arcus Meeting (the "Arcus Circular"), which is expected to be mailed to Arcus Shareholders on or about July 28, 2026, and made available on SEDAR+ under Arcus' issuer profile at www.sedarplus.ca. The Agreement will also be made available on SEDAR+ under the issuer profiles of both Arcus and Core Silver in accordance with applicable securities laws. Arcus Shareholders are encouraged to read the Arcus Circular and the Agreement for additional information regarding the Arcus Meeting and the Transaction.None of the securities to be issued pursuant to the Transaction have been or will be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and any securities issuable in the Transaction are anticipated to be issued in reliance upon available exemptions from such registration requirements pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable exemptions under state securities laws. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.Leadership and GovernanceUnder the Agreement the Companies agreed that, upon the closing of the Transaction, Darryl Jones, interim CEO and a director of Arcus, will be appointed as a member of the board of directors of Core Silver, and the remaining directors and officers of Arcus will resign.

Clark Wilson LLP is acting as legal counsel to Core Silver.On behalf of the board of directors of Core Silver Corp."Nicholas Rodway"Nicholas Rodway, President & CEOOn behalf of the board of directors of Arcus Development Group Inc."Darryl Jones"Darryl Jones, Interim CEOAbout Core Silver Corp.Core Silver Corp. is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and development of mineral projects in British Columbia, Canada. Core Silver currently holds 100% ownership in the Blue Property Mineral Tenure, which covers a land area of 114,074 hectares (~1,140 km²). The project lies within the Atlin Mining District, a well-known gold mining camp located in the unceded territory of the Taku River Tlingit First Nation and the Carcross/Tagish First Nation. The Blue Property hosts a major structural feature known as The Llewellyn Fault Zone ("LFZ"). This structure is approximately 140 km in length and runs from the Tally-Ho Shear Zone in the Yukon, south through the Blue Property to the Alaskan Panhandle Juneau Ice Sheet in the United States. Core Silver believes that the south Atlin Lake area and the LFZ has been neglected since the last major exploration campaigns in the 1980's. The LFZ plays an important role in mineralization of near surface metal occurrences across the Blue Property Mineral Tenure. The past 50 years have seen substantial advancements in the understanding of porphyry, skarn, and carbonate replacement type deposits both globally and in British Columbia's Golden Triangle. Core Silver has leveraged this information at the Blue Property Mineral Tenure to tailor an already proven exploration model and believes this could facilitate a major discovery. Core Silver is excited to become one of Atlin Mining District's premier explorers where its team believes there are substantial opportunities for new discoveries and development in the area.Visit Core Silver's website at www.coresilvercorp.com.About Arcus Development Group Inc.Arcus was established in June 2006 by a group of mineral industry veterans, and a select group of investors with records of entrepreneurial success in a variety of business ventures.

Arcus Development and Core Silver Provide Update on Proposed Business Combination to Create Tintina Belt Exploration Company Anchored by the Touleary VMS DiscoveryJune 17, 2026 7:00 AM
ACCESS NewswireView the Corporate Presentation Outlining the Transaction and Strategic RationaleVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / June 17, 2026 / Arcus Development Group Inc. ("Arcus") (TSXV:ADG) and Core Silver Corp. ("Core Silver") (CSE:CC)(FSE:8ZR)(OTCQB:CCOOF) (together, the "Companies") are pleased to provide an update on the proposed business combination first announced on April 27, 2026 (link), pursuant to which Core Silver would acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Arcus on a 1:1 share exchange basis (the "Proposed Transaction"). If the transaction is completed, the Combined Company would emerge with approximately $6.5 million CAD in cash and a strengthened platform to advance multiple exploration projects concurrently. As previously announced, Core Silver and Arcus also entered into an option agreement dated April 26, 2026 whereby Arcus granted Core Silver an exclusive option to earn a 20% interest in Arcus' Touleary project (the "Touleary Project"). Core Silver would earn the interest by incurring no less than $2,000,000 in exploration expenditures on the Touleary Project on or before the first anniversary of the option.Highlights:The Touleary Project is fully permitted for drilling in 2026.Eight drill-ready target areas identified.Existing VMS discovery from 2011 drilling completed by Arcus:Drill Hole TL-11-01 returning 6.09m of 1.37% Cu, 14.5g/t Ag, & 0.80 g/t Au from 85.61m depth.Drill Hole TL-11-05 returning 14.15m of 1.45% Cu, 16.4 g/t Ag, & 0.73g/t Au from 124.5m depth.Broader 1.2 km geophysical and geochemical anomaly remains largely untested outside the 2011 discovery area.Exposure to both copper and precious metals.Located near proposed Northern Gateway infrastructure corridor."The proposed combination provides Arcus shareholders with continued exposure to Touleary while adding the scale, treasury and broader asset base needed to advance a district-scale exploration strategy," said Darryl Jones, Interim CEO of Arcus. "Touleary has a drill-confirmed VMS discovery, multiple untested targets and permits in place for the 2026 field season. We believe the combined company would be well positioned to unlock the project's potential.""This transaction represents an important step forward in the evolution of Core Silver," said Nicholas Rodway, President & CEO. "By acquiring Arcus, we would create a stronger and more diversified exploration company with exposure to multiple district-scale opportunities including Touleary within the Tintina Gold Belt. We believe the Combined Company, assuming completion of the transaction, will be well positioned to pursue new discoveries in a region that is rapidly emerging as one of the most prospective mineral belts in North America."The proposed transaction is designed to significantly expand Core Silver's asset base through the addition of a complementary copper-focused exploration project, while maintaining strong leverage to silver through the Company's Blue Property in northwestern British Columbia.The Companies caution readers that the Proposed Transaction has not yet been completed and there is no assurance that it will be completed on the terms set out in the binding letter of intent (the "LOI"), or at all. The proposed transaction will be undertaken by way of a plan of arrangement under Section 288 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) ("BCBCA") and is subject to a number of conditions, including, without limitation, the execution by the parties of a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") and the receipt of all shareholder, court, regulatory and stock exchange approvals, as applicable.A key strategic component of the proposed transaction is the addition of the Touleary Project, a volcanogenic massive sulphide ("VMS") discovery located within a well-known copper-endowed district in the Yukon Territory (Figure 1). The Touleary Project has the potential to emerge as a significant new VMS system within one of Canada's most prospective but underexplored mineral belts.The Touleary Project represents a compelling exploration asset due to its combination of favorable geology, district-scale alteration, drill-proven metal endowment and strategic location within an emerging infrastructure corridor (Figure 2). VMS deposits are globally important sources of copper, zinc, lead, silver and gold and are highly sought after due to their potential for high grades, clustered deposits and scalable district development opportunities.In 2011, a total of 935.9 m of diamond drilling was completed in five holes at the Touleary Project by Arcus. The drill program was primarily designed to test down-dip continuity of a mineralized interval exposed in a 2010 excavator trench, which graded 0.82 g/t gold and 14.30 g/t silver over 34 m. The mineralized exposure coincided with a linear magnetic low identified by the helicopter-borne magnetic survey. The holes intercepted elevated copper, zinc, lead, silver and gold bearing VMS style mineralization over a 300 by 100 metre area within a much larger 1,200-metre-long geophysical and geochemical anomaly, suggesting substantial room for expansion and additional discoveries (Table 1).The Touleary Project is currently fully permitted for drilling in 2026, with eight high-priority drill targets already defined (Figure 3).Table 1: Highlights from Arcus 2011 drilling (after Wengzynowski, W.A., 2025). *The historical drill results reported herein were completed by Arcus Development Group Inc. in 2011. The Qualified Person has reviewed available assessment reports, drill logs and analytical certificates and considers the information to be relevant and reliable for the purposes of this disclosure. True widths of mineralization are unknown. The Touleary Project does not contain a current mineral resource estimate or mineral reserve estimate. For more detail, please refer to Arcus' technical report in respect of the Touleary Project dated November 3, 2025, available under Arcus' profile at www.sedarplus.ca. Figure 1: Touleary Project location and infrastructure.The Touleary Project benefits from several key characteristics commonly associated with major VMS systems, including:Location within a well-established copper-rich geological belt with a history of mineral discoveries.A large prospective land package with potential for multiple mineralized systems.Strong exploration upside in an area that has seen limited modern systematic exploration.Exposure to both base and precious metals, providing leverage to multiple long-term commodity demand themes.Proximity to improving regional infrastructure, including the proposed Northern Gateway Road corridor.The proposed Northern Gateway Road (See Fuerte Metals/Talamore Mining Corp. press release dated March 4-2026) and related infrastructure initiatives are viewed by management as transformational for the broader region. Improved access into northwestern Yukon could materially reduce exploration and development costs, improve logistics, lengthen operating seasons and unlock access to vast areas of highly prospective ground across the Tintina Belt that historically remained difficult and expensive to explore.The Northern Gateway Road in the Yukon refers to a planned multi-million-dollar resource and development route designed to connect Dawson City with major mining developments in the west-central region, particularly the Coffee Mine. The road will traverse and service the heart of the prolific White Gold District. It is designed to service major proposed mining operations, including the Coffee Mine and the Casino Mine, while improving exploration access for junior mining companies. Development of the route requires ongoing government-to-government collaboration and agreements with local First Nations to ensure local socioeconomic benefits (Figure 1).TOULEARY PROJECT GEOLOGYThe geology of the Touleary Project is shown in Figure 2. The property is underlain by the metasiliciclastic rocks of the Snowcap Assemblage and volcanic rocks of the Finlayson Assemblage (Ryan and Gordey, 2001). Lesser amounts of younger Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks belonging to the Simpson Range, Sulphur Creek Suite, and Stikine Suite are inferred along narrow regions of the project area in comparison. The current property scale geology map has been derived from the mapping by Ryan and Gordey in 2001 which collected much of the limited data from ridge top traverses, road cuts and lesser creek exposures. No additional detailed geological mapping has been done on the Touleary Project by Arcus with the exception of detailed mapping of excavator trenches in 2010 and diamond drill core in 2011.The characteristics of the two main lithostratigraphic units are summarized as follows:Snowcap Assemblage (Neoproterozoic)Comprises the basement of the YTT and consists dominantly of metasiliciclastic rocks including quartzite, psammite, pelitic and calc-silicate schists. These rocks are typically poly-deformed and metamorphosed to amphibolite facies.Finlayson Assemblage (Devonian)Comprises Upper Devonian to Lower Mississippian metavolcanic and metasedimentary/volcaniclastic stratigraphy. Volcanic assemblages are distinctly bimodal and, where observed in drill core at the Touleary Project, are dominated by mafic endmembers relative to their felsic counterparts. The Finlayson Assemblage hosts VMS mineralization on the Touleary Project and sulphide horizons at the Discovery Zone are mostly developed in felsic volcaniclastic zones within the mafic dominant section. Hydrothermal alteration of these facies is present as talc chlorite where mafic volcanics are present and varying degrees of silicification and sericite alteration where the felsic facies are present.Government geological mapping originally inferred much of the Touleary Project as being underlain by basal stratigraphy of the Finlayson Group successions below the region of active VMS deposition. Detailed analysis of the processed airborne magnetic data coupled with the drill discovery geological information, VTEM data and the property-wide soil geochemistry, allowed for a significant reinterpretation of the geological and structural architecture of the project area. This reinterpretation identified a much more extensive distribution of fertile volcanic host stratigraphy in addition to potential vent complexes, regions of complex folding and directional structural offsets. Figure 2: Touleary property geology; Vent complexes inferred from geophysics and soil sample geochemistry.TOULEARY PROJECT MINERALIZATIONMineralization at the Touleary Project is typical of Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) systems developed in Devono-Mississippian age submarine volcanic host rocks of the Finlayson Assemblage.The closest known examples of comparable VMS systems occur within the Finlayson District ~450 km southeast along the displaced Tintina Fault Zone in southeastern Yukon. Paleogeographic reconstructions suggest the Finlayson District was originally situated adjacent to the Touleary area prior to displacement along the Tintina Fault.Volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits have also been referred to as volcanic-associated, volcanic-hosted, and volcano-sedimentary-hosted massive sulphide deposits. They typically occur as lenses of polymetallic massive sulphide that form at or near the seafloor in submarine extensional volcanic environments. VMS deposits are grouped according to base metal content, gold content and host-rock lithology. Base metal classification is most commonly used with specific deposit types divided into Cu, Cu-Zn, Zn-Cu and Zn-Pb-Cu groups according to their contained ratios of these three metals. Semi-precious and precious metal content (Ag and Au) can potentially contribute significantly to the economics of VMS deposits. The model illustrated below (Figure 3) is a generic seafloor vertical feeder and mound-style system and does not account for post depositional deformation which can significantly transform the geometries of these deposits. Figure 3: Schematic diagram of the modern Trans-Atlantic Geotraverse (TAG) sulphide deposit on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This represents a classic cross-section of a VMS deposit, with concordant semi-massive to massive sulphide lens underlain by a discordant stockwork vein system and associated alteration halo or ‘Pipe'. (after Hannington et al. (1998)*.*Figure 3 is provided solely as a conceptual illustration of a generic VMS system and is not intended to imply that mineralization at Touleary is analogous to the size or grade of the TAG deposit.TARGETS FOR EXPLORATIONFuture exploration at the Touleary Project is proposed to be focused on the following Target areas (See Figure 4):Localized ScaleTarget 1 (Discovery Zone)Additional step out diamond drilling is planned to be conducted in this area to further delineate the 2011 discovery VMS horizons.Following drilling, downhole electromagnetic surveys will be conducted at this area so that the response over known mineralization can be documented and compared to data collected along strike.Target 2Hand-pitting to expose bedrock in localized areas with coincident anomalous soil signatures (Cu, Zn).Target 3Infill soil sampling.Target 4Hand-pitting to expose bedrock in localized areas with coincident anomalous soil signatures (Cu, Zn).Target 5Ground follow up on coincident multi-element geochemical anomalies that are associated with favorable magnetic signatures and well-defined near-surface conductors.Target 6Infill soil sampling to the northeast and southwest.Target 7Hand-pitting to expose bedrock in localized areas with coincident anomalous soil signatures (Cu, Zn).Target 8Ground-based electromagnetic surveys are proposed to be conducted at this area so that response over known mineralization can be documented and compared to data collected along strike.Diamond drilling within the central area of target to identify mineralization and determine host lithologies.Downhole EM surveys following drilling.Target 8 represents a priority exploration target that may reflect a second mineralized horizon.The lead, zinc, silver and copper-rich and gold-poor geochemical signature suggests that there is the potential for a second type of system or a more distal vent setting.Small clusters of less mobile elements (silver and lead) may represent areas where there is less soil dispersion (i.e. nearer to in-situ mineralization) or, if the stratigraphic package is folded, a concentration of mineralization near fold hinges.Mechanized trenching following on trend of the geochemical anomaly.

Darryl Jones, Interim CEOAbout Core SilverCore Silver Corp. is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on the acquisition and development of mineral projects in British Columbia, Canada. Core Silver currently holds 100% ownership in the Blue Property Mineral Tenure, which covers a land area of 114,074 hectares (~1,140 km²). The project lies within the Atlin Mining District, a well-known gold mining camp located in the unceded territory of the Taku River Tlingit First Nation and the Carcross/Tagish First Nation. The Blue Property hosts a major structural feature known as The Llewellyn Fault Zone ("LFZ"). This structure is approximately 140 km in length and runs from the Tally-Ho Shear Zone in the Yukon, south through the Blue Property to the Alaskan Panhandle Juneau Ice Sheet in the United States. Core Silver believes that the south Atlin Lake area and the LFZ has been neglected since the last major exploration campaigns in the 1980's. The LFZ plays an important role in mineralization of near surface metal occurrences across the Blue Property Mineral Tenure. The past 50 years have seen substantial advancements in the understanding of porphyry, skarn, and carbonate replacement type deposits both globally and in British Columbia's Golden Triangle. The Company has leveraged this information at the Blue Property Mineral Tenure to tailor an already proven exploration model and believes this could facilitate a major discovery. Core Silver is excited to become one of Atlin Mining District's premier explorers where its team believes there are substantial opportunities for new discoveries and development in the area.Website: https://coresilvercorp.com/About ArcusArcus was established in June 2006 by a group of mineral industry veterans, and a select group of investors with records of entrepreneurial success in a variety of business ventures. The goal of Arcus is to provide significant shareholder returns through the acquisition of interests in advanced early stage mineral exploration projects.Website: www.arcusdevelopmentgroup.comFor further information, please contact:Core Silver at:Core Silver Corp.
