Almaden Minerals Ltd.: Almaden Announces Intention to Migrate Canadian Exchange Listing from the TSX to the TSX Venture Exchange

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Almaden Minerals Ltd. ("Almaden" or "the Company"; TSX: AMM; OTCQB: AAUAF) announces its intention to migrate its Canadian stock exchange listing from the TSX to the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").

In order to complete this migration, the Company has applied to voluntarily delist its shares from the TSX, and has received conditional approval from the TSXV to list its shares as a Tier 2 Mining Issuer. Shareholder approval of the migration is not required under the policies of the TSX as the TSXV is an acceptable alternative market. Almaden expects the migration to facilitate seamless trading in its common shares, which will continue to trade under the symbol "AMM" on the TSXV.

Almaden is pursuing this migration due to the costs associated with a TSX listing versus a TSXV listing and because Almaden's ongoing business may not be compatible with TSX continued listing requirements. Almaden expects the delisting from the TSX to occur at the close of business on August 12, and the listing on the TSXV to commence at the open of business on August 13, 2025.

On behalf of the Board of Directors,

"J. Duane Poliquin"
J. Duane Poliquin
Chair
Almaden Minerals Ltd.
