HighGold Mining Now Trading on US OTCQX Market with DTC Eligibility for Ease of US Shareholder Transactions
Vancouver, June 22, 2020 - HighGold Mining Inc. (TSXV: HIGH) (OTCQX: HGGOF) ("HighGold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its shares have been qualified to begin trading on the OTCQX® Best Market ("OTCQX") beginning today. HighGold was listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX-V) in September 2019 and followed with trading on the OTCQB Market in December 2019. HighGold shares will begin trading on OTCQX under its current trading symbol "HGGOF" effective June 22, 2020.
The OTCQX is the top tier of the three OTC (Over-the-Counter) markets. Stocks that trade on this market must meet more stringent qualification criteria compared to the two lower tiers. HighGold looks forward to continuing to work with OTC Markets and anticipates a greater presence at the virtual investor conferences held by the OTC Markets Group.
In addition to the move to the OTCQX, HighGold has qualified for DTC (Depository Trust Company) eligibility. "We have been advancing the DTC eligibility process for the past many months recognizing that this eligibility simplifies US trades in Canadian stocks and reduces trading costs for our US shareholders," commented HighGold President and CEO Darwin Green. "Graduation to the OTCQX in combination with DTC eligibility are both anticipated to enhance liquidity within US markets."
