Corus to stop distributing Nickelodeon, four other kids' entertainment channels
The company says in a statement it will stop distributing ABC Spark, Nickelodeon, Disney French (La Chaine Disney), Disney XD and Disney Jr. channels as of Sept. 1.
A spokesperson says the move comes after a 'comprehensive review' of Corus' portfolio of channels surrounding the 'evolving needs of our audiences and distribution partners.'
Corus says it will still operate the Disney Channel across its TV and streaming platforms.
Last month, the company said it slashed seven per cent of employee costs in its most recent quarter and was continuing to look for savings amid an advertising revenue slump.
Chief executive John Gossling told analysts that Corus anticipates TV advertising revenue to decline about 20 per cent year-over-year in the current quarter as 'geopolitical and economic uncertainty' linger.

Orla Mining Reports Pit Wall Event at Camino Rojo
VANCOUVER, BC, /CNW/ - Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA; NYSE: ORLA) ("Orla" or the "Company") reports that an uncontrolled material movement event occurred today on the pit wall at its Camino Rojo Oxide Mine in Zacatecas, Mexico. The event occurred along the temporary north wall of the open pit, which included ore material expected to be mined as part of the ultimate open pit. There were no injuries or equipment damage as a result of the material movement, which was detected early by the pit monitoring systems. The event was caused by significant rain. There was no environmental damage resulting from the incident; however, rainwater diversion channels will need to be re-established to prevent further material subsidence in the pit. While the main access throughout the pit was not affected, mining in the pit has been temporarily suspended. Pit access has been restricted to the necessary technical and operating personnel to support the appropriate geotechnical assessments required for safe remediation and resumption of mining activities. Crushing and stacking of stockpiled material onto the heap leach will continue in the interim. The Company is currently assessing any potential impact of the pit wall event on its full-year production guidance for Camino Rojo. The relevant authorities are being notified as appropriate, and Orla is implementing appropriate remediation measures. The safety of all personnel remains the Company's top priority as it undertakes a comprehensive analysis to ensure the ongoing stability of mining operations. About Orla Mining Ltd. Orla's corporate strategy is to acquire, develop, and operate mineral properties where the Company's expertise can substantially increase stakeholder value. The Company has three material projects, consisting of two operating mines and one development project, all 100% owned by the Company: (1) Camino Rojo, in Zacatecas State, Mexico, an operating gold and silver open-pit and heap leach mine. The property covers over 139,000 hectares which contains a large oxide and sulphide mineral resource, (2) Musselwhite Mine, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, an underground gold mine that has been in operation for over 25 years and produced over 6 million ounces of gold, with a long history of resource growth and conversion, and (3) South Railroad, in Nevada, United States, a feasibility-stage, open pit, heap leach gold project located on the Carlin trend in Nevada. The technical reports for the Company's material projects are available on Orla's website at and on SEDAR+ and EDGAR under the Company's profile at and respectively.

Franco-Nevada Announces Acquisition of 1.0% NSR on AngloGold's Arthur Gold Project in Nevada
(in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted) TORONTO, July 23, 2025 /CNW/ - Franco-Nevada Corporation ("Franco-Nevada" or the "Company") (TSX: FNV) & (NYSE: FNV) is pleased to announce that its wholly-owned subsidiary has acquired an existing 1.0% net smelter return royalty (the "Royalty") on AngloGold Ashanti plc's ("AngloGold") Arthur Gold Project (previously the Expanded Silicon Project) from Altius Minerals Corporation ("Altius") for $250 million in cash, plus a contingent cash payment of $25 million payable subject to the achievement of certain conditions as described below. The Arthur Gold Project is one of the largest and fastest growing new gold discoveries in the United States. The ongoing drill program expanded the resource by 20% year over year, taking the most recently stated gold Mineral Resource base to 3.4 million ounces of Indicated Mineral Resources and 12.9 million ounces of Inferred Mineral Resources. "We are pleased to acquire this existing Royalty on the Arthur Gold Project, which is one of the most exciting new gold discoveries in Nevada," said Paul Brink, President & CEO of Franco-Nevada. "AngloGold, a tier-1 operator, has been rapidly growing the resource base at Arthur since its initial discovery in 2018. This acquisition will further add to our portfolio of Nevada royalties, and we look forward to the long-term growth potential of the asset and the overall district as AngloGold continues to advance the project." Transaction Highlights Royalty on a Tier-1 gold asset in Nevada: The Royalty applies to a substantial land package in the Beatty District of Nevada covering the vast majority of the existing Mineral Resource of the Arthur Gold Project (including both Merlin and Silicon deposits) within a base area of interest with no step-downs or buydown provisions, providing the potential for decades of stable gold cash flow once in production. The ongoing arbitration will determine the extent of the expanded royalty footprint, which is expected to expand by several multiples upon the area encompassed by the base area of interest to include substantially all of the existing Mineral Resource of the Arthur Gold Project and providing further exposure to the large and highly prospective land package 1. Extensive Mineral Endowment with Exploration Potential: The Arthur Gold Project has a large and rapidly growing Mineral Resource base across the Merlin and Silicon deposits for a total of 3.4 Moz of gold Indicated Mineral Resources (122 Mt at 0.87 g/t Au) and 12.9 Moz of gold Inferred Mineral Resources (391 Mt at 1.03 g/t Au). The project is one of Nevada's most exciting new discoveries with Mineral Resources having grown rapidly since first discovery in 2018 and the maiden Resource estimate in 2021. AngloGold has completed 430 km of drilling as of year-end 2024, inclusive of 132 km of drilling completed in 2024 with two reverse circulation and seven diamond core rigs. Project Advancing Under Strong Operator: AngloGold is currently focused on advancing a PFS for the project with expected completion by the end of 2025 or early 2026. The Arthur Gold Project is envisioned as a large oxide project with both heap leach and milling operations. The project is a Tier-1 opportunity for AngloGold. In addition to completing a PFS, key priorities for AngloGold in 2025 include advancing further infill drilling, a potential upgrade in resources to reserves, and executing strategic land and water rights acquisitions. Key Transaction Terms Franco-Nevada has acquired the 1.0% NSR royalty from Altius for $250 million, with a further $25 million in cash payable dependent upon the final award outcome of an ongoing arbitration process between Altius and AngloGold that confirms that the full extent of the royalty beyond the base area of interest is substantially consistent with that of Altius' interpretation of a partial award of the arbitration tribunal that it reported on earlier this year. The transaction was structured as an asset sale and Franco-Nevada will deplete the full purchase price on a units of production basis for tax depletion purposes. Funding of the transaction was completed with cash on hand, and a $175 million draw from the Company's $1 billion corporate credit facility. Altius holds the remaining 0.5% NSR royalty, with respect to which Franco-Nevada has been granted certain pre-emptive rights on a sale by Altius. Advisors BMO Capital Markets and TD Securities acted as financial advisors to Franco-Nevada.
