## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Allied Gold Announces Filing and Mailing of Management Information Circular in Connection with the Proposed Arrangement with Zijin Gold International**

TORONTO, March 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allied Gold Corporation ("Allied Gold" or the "Company") (TSX: AAUC, NYSE: AAUC) is pleased to announce that it has filed and mailed its management information circular (the "Circular") and related proxy materials (the "Meeting Materials") for the special meeting of shareholders of Allied Gold (the "Meeting") to be held in connection with the proposed plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") between the Company and Zijin Gold International Company Limited ("Zijin Gold"), as previously announced on January 26, 2026. The Meeting Materials have been filed under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at <u>www.sedarplus.ca</u> and on EDGAR at <u>www.sec.gov</u> and are also available on the Company's website at <u>www.alliedgold.com</u>.

**The Arrangement**

Under the terms of the Arrangement, Zijin Gold will acquire, subject to the favourable vote of shareholders relating to the Arrangement, all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Allied Gold from the shareholders of the Company for cash consideration of C$44.00 per share to be paid to shareholders, by way of a statutory plan of arrangement under the *Business Corporations Act* (Ontario).

The Arrangement is expected to close by late April 2026, subject to shareholder approval and customary closing conditions, including certain regulatory approvals.

**Benefits of the Arrangement**

* Immediate and significant premium of approximately 27% to the 30-day volume-weighted average share price on the TSX prior to the announcement of the transaction.

* Consideration represents an all-time high for Common Share price.

* All-cash offer that is not subject to a financing condition and that provides shareholders with immediate liquidity, crystallizing significant and certain value amid extreme volatility in gold prices, and reducing exposure to broader market volatility.

* Strong deal certainty with a highly credible and leading global mining company as purchaser with the financial resources necessary to complete the Arrangement and a demonstrated track record of completed transactions in Canadian capital markets.

* Offer eliminates current and potential risks associated with development and expansion of Allied's near term and longer term development and mining assets

**Board Recommendation**

The board of directors of Allied Gold (the "Board"), based in part on the recommendation of a special committee of independent directors of the Board (the "Special Committee") and the fairness opinion that the Special Committee and the Board received from Scotia Capital Inc., unanimously determined that the Arrangement is fair to the shareholders and is in the best interests of the Company.

**The Board unanimously recommends that the Shareholders vote <u>FOR</u> the Arrangement Resolution.**

The Arrangement is the culmination of a comprehensive strategic review process undertaken by the Board. The Board and the Special Committee, in unanimously determining that the Arrangement is fair and reasonable to the Shareholders and is in the best interests of the Company, and the Board in making its recommendation to shareholders, considered and relied upon a number of factors and reasons as detailed in the Circular.

**Voting Support Agreements**

As part of the Arrangement, directors and officers of Allied Gold representing approximately 15.4% of the issued and outstanding Allied Gold shares have signed voting support agreements, pursuant to which they have agreed, among other things, to vote their Allied Gold shares in favour of the Arrangement.

**The Meeting** 

The Meeting will be held in person on Tuesday, March 31, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) at St. Andrew's Lounge, 27<sup>th</sup> Floor, 150 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario, M5H 1J9.

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on February 23, 2026 are eligible to vote their common shares in person or by proxy at the Meeting.

At the Meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon a resolution to approve the Arrangement. The Arrangement resolution is subject to the approval of 66⅔% of votes cast by shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting, and a simple majority of the votes cast at the Meeting by disinterested shareholders, excluding in respect of 16,585,404 common shares held by directors and officers of the Company as of the record date in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements.

Your vote is important regardless of the number of common shares you own. As a shareholder, it is very important that you carefully read the Meeting Materials and vote your shares.

Shareholders may vote online, by telephone, by mail, or by any other method listed in the form of proxy or voting instruction form included with the Meeting Materials. The Meeting Materials have been mailed to shareholders in accordance with applicable corporate and securities laws and the interim order of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) dated February 25, 2026.

To ensure that your common shares will be represented at the Meeting, you should carefully follow the voting instructions provided in the Meeting Materials. The deadline for receipt of proxies is 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on March 27, 2026, or at least two days (excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays) before any adjourned or postponed Meeting. Non-registered Shareholders will need to submit their voting instructions prior to that time in accordance with the instructions received from their brokers or other intermediaries.
