Athena Gold Corporation (CSE:ATHA)(OTCQB:AHNR) ("Athena Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the completion of its redomicile from the State of Delaware to the Province of British Columbia, Canada, by way of a merger into its British Columbia subsidiary, Nova Athena Gold Corp. ("Nova Athena") under section 275 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), together with concurrent name change, to form the amalgamated corporation which will continue under the name "Athena Gold Corporation" (the "Resulting Issuer") (the "Redomestication").

The Redomestication was approved by the holders of the Company's common shares at its Annual General and Special Meeting (the "Meeting") held March 27, 2025, by an affirmative vote of approximately 78.75% of the votes cast in respect thereof by shareholders present in person or by proxy at the Meeting.

The Company has set April 24, 2025, as the "Record Date", subject to approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange. At that time, the Resulting Issuer's common shares will commence trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange under its new ISIN/CUSIP Number. The new ISIN Number is CA04684R1055 and the new CUSIP Number is 04684R105.

Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Amalgamation dated February 4, 2025, the Company's shareholders will receive one common share in the capital of Nova Athena for each common share of the Company with the Resulting Issuer retaining its current name, Athena Gold Corporation, and current trading symbol "ATHA" on the Canadian Securities Exchange and on the OTCQB under trading symbol "AHNR".

As a result of the Redomestication, the Resulting Issuer's authorized capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares and an unlimited number of preferred shares. Prior to the Redomestication the Company's authorized capital consisted of (i) 250,000,000 common shares, of which 194,803,633 common shares were issued and outstanding and 30,490,303 common shares were reserved for issuance, consisting of an aggregate of 25,260,303 share purchase warrants and 5,230,000 stock options; and (ii) 5,000,000 preferred shares, of which none were issued. On the Record Date of April 24, 2025, the Resulting Issuer will have 238,668,850 common shares issued and outstanding including 43,865,217 common shares previously issued to acquire the Laird Lake and Oneman Lake gold projects in Ontario and 30,490,303 common shares reserved for issuance, consisting of an aggregate of 25,260,303 share purchase warrants and 5,230,000 stock options. No preferred shares will be issued. The common shares held by Athena Gold in Nova Athena will be cancelled without payment of capital.

The Company's transfer agent, Endeavor Trust Corporation ("Endeavor"), has mailed out a letter of transmittal ("Letter of Transmittal") to all registered shareholders of Athena Gold whose common shares are held in the form of physical share certificates. Registered shareholders are required to deposit their original share certificate(s), together with a duly completed Letter of Transmittal, with Endeavor. Once received, Endeavor will deliver shares in the name of the Resulting Issuer to the registered shareholder in accordance with the terms of the Letter of Transmittal. A copy of the Letter of Transmittal will be available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca or can be obtained by contacting Endeavor. If a shareholder holds their common shares through the Direct Registration System (DRS), no action is required. Shareholders who hold their common shares through an intermediary (i.e., a bank, trust, company, securities broker, trustee, or other) should contact that intermediary for instructions or questions.

Further details regarding the terms and conditions of the Redomestication are set out in the Proxy Statement dated February 4, 2025, which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Redomestication is expected, among other things, to significantly reduce Athena Gold's regulatory compliance costs, enhance its ability to access the capital markets and increase the number of potential investors.

Editor's Picks: Gold Price Breaks US$3,400, Silver Added to Draft US Critical Minerals List

The gold price was on the rise this week, breaking through US$3,400 per ounce once again.

It's been pushed higher by US dollar weakness, as well as Federal Reserve turmoil.

President Donald Trump has been pressuring Fed Chair Jerome Powell to cut interest rates for months, and on Monday (August 25) the situation developed further when Trump posted a letter on his social media platform Truth Social. In it, he said he was removing Lisa Cook from her position on the central bank's board of governors due to allegations of mortgage fraud.

Top 5 Canadian Mining Stocks This Week: Trifecta Shines with 117 Percent Gain

Welcome to the Investing News Network's weekly look at the best-performing Canadian mining stocks on the TSX, TSXV and CSE, starting with a round-up of Canadian and US news impacting the resource sector.

Statistics Canada released its second-quarter gross domestic product (GDP) figures on Friday (August 29). The data showed that the Canadian economy shrank 0.4 percent in the second quarter and declined 1.6 percent on an annualized basis. The decrease comes following first-quarter gains of 0.5 percent and a 2 percent annualized increase.

Much of the decrease was attributed to a 7.5 percent drop in exports compared to Q1. Canadian exports had risen 1.4 percent in the first three months of the year as US companies increased imports to get ahead of incoming tariffs.Excluding the lower costs at the pumps, CPI remained steady at 2.5 percent, the same increase as May and June.

Navigating Uncertainty: How Trump's Tariffs Are Affecting the Gold Market

The gold price has been on the rise in 2025 as a slew of factors work in its favor.

Central bank buying has long been a key point of support, as has escalating conflict in the Middle East and elsewhere. A newer addition is tariff tensions as the Trump administration fleshes out trade policies.
