Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – May 16, 2024) – Argo Gold Inc’s. (CSE: ARQ) (OTC Pink: ARBTF) (XFRA: A2ASDS) (XSTU: A2ASDS) (XBER: A2ASDS) (“Argo” or the “Company”) Year-End 2023 Reserves Report (“Reserves Report”), with an effective date of December 31, 2023, is summarized below. The Reserves Report was completed by Petrotech and Associates, an independent qualified reserves evaluator based in Calgary, Alberta, and was prepared in accordance with the Canadian Oil and Gas Evaluation Handbook (“COGE Handbook”) and National Instrument 51-101 Standards of Disclosure for Oil and Gas Activities (“NI 51-101”). The evaluation was conducted using the Sproule December 31, 2023, Price Forecast for Heavy Crude Oil (12°API) at www.sproule.com, adjusted for each property.

The Reserves Report includes Argo’s interest in the three current producing oil wells at Lindbergh and Lloydminster, Alberta; and three undeveloped planned development oil wells at Lindbergh. The report does not include the second oil well at Lloydminster planned for summer 2024, as this oil well was not confirmed until 2024.
