Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 20, 2026) – Americas Gold and Silver Corporation (TSX: USA) (NYSE American: USAS) (“Americas” or the “Company”), a growing North American precious metals and antimony producer, is pleased to announce that the Company will be added to the Van Eck Junior Gold Miners ETF (“GDXJ®”) effective at the market close on March 20, 2026.
Paul Andre Huet, Chairman and CEO, commented: “Following on from the very positive announcement last year on April 28 noting our addition to and inclusion in the Solactive Global Silver Miners Index (“SIL”), I am very pleased to announce yet another strong step forward for Americas shareholders.
“We have met the criteria for inclusion in the GDXJ, which seeks to replicate as closely as possible, before fees and expenses, the price and yield performance of the MVIS® Global Junior Gold Miners Index (MVGDXJTR). This index is designed to track the overall performance of small-capitalization companies that are involved primarily in the mining of gold and/or silver1.
“Americas inclusion in this major index has the potential to maintain and attract additional global institutional investment into the Company and increase liquidity, with the GDXJ being an important benchmark requirement for many large investment funds. Congratulations to the entire team on this strong step forward in the markets. We look forward to more success in broadening our investor audience as we execute our plans to grow as a premier silver and critical metals producer.”

About Americas Gold and Silver Corporation
Americas Gold and Silver is a rapidly growing North American mining company producing silver, copper, and antimony from high-grade operations in the U.S. and Mexico. In December 2024, Americas acquired 100% ownership of the Galena Complex (Idaho) in a transaction with Eric Sprott, former 40% Galena owner, in exchange becoming Americas’ largest shareholder. This transaction consolidated Galena as a cornerstone U.S. silver asset and the nation’s largest antimony mine. In December 2025, Americas acquired the fully permitted, past-producing Crescent Silver Mine (9 miles from Galena) with the world’s 3rd highest-grade silver resource, creating significant potential future synergies through shared infrastructure and processing. In February 2026, Americas formed a 51/49 joint venture with US Antimony to build a new antimony processing hub at Galena, creating a U.S. “mine-to-finished product” antimony solution. Americas also owns and operates the Cosalá Operations in Sinaloa, Mexico. Americas is fully funded to aggressively grow production at the Galena Complex, Crescent and in Mexico with an aim to be a leading North American silver producer and a key source of U.S.-produced antimony.
