Evolve Gold Miners Fund Announces Filing of Final Prospectus

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 25, 2020) - Evolve Funds Group Inc. (NEO: GLC) ("Evolve") is pleased to announce that Evolve Gold Miners Fund (the "ETF"), a new class of shares of Evolve Fund Corp. (formerly Gold Miners Split Corp.) (the "Company") has filed a final prospectus dated September 25, 2020 (the "Prospectus") in respect of the initial and continuous distribution of exchange traded fund shares of the ETF (the "ETF Shares") in all provinces and territories of Canada. Pursuant to the Prospectus, the ETF Shares are continuously offered for sale to the public at a price per share equal to the net asset value per ETF Share.

The ETF Shares began trading on the facilities of the Neo Exchange Inc. under the symbol "GLC" on September 25, 2020.

The ETF invests in a portfolio comprised primarily of common shares of gold mining issuers included in the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index, the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index and/or the MVIS Global Junior Gold Miners Index.

"As gold prices strengthen on the back of the global pandemic, we believe there remains a long-term investment opportunity in the gold mining sector," said Elliot Johnson, Chief Investment Officer at Evolve. "Given the uncertainty in the post-pandemic world, now might be the time for investors to consider gold mining equities. We launched the Evolve Gold Miners Fund to provide investors with access to an undervalued, growth sector that historically moves in the opposite direction to the broad equity markets."

Evolve, the manager of the Company, provides investment advisory services and portfolio management services to the Company.
