TORONTO, July 17, 2019 -  1911 Gold Corp. (TSXV: AUMB) ("1911 Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, 1911 Gold Canada Corporation ("1911 Gold Canada"), entered into an arms' length agreement to acquire three additional claims, totaling approximately 230 hectares, on the Rice Lake belt in Manitoba, Canada.
