Sitka Gold Begins Trading on the OTCQB Venture Market

“As a gold, silver and copper focused exploration company with a portfolio of projects located across North America, and more specifically, in Nevada, Arizona, Yukon and Nunavut, it was a logical step for Sitka to list on the OTCQB,” said Cor Coe, CEO and Director of Sitka. “Our listing on the OTCQB will help to increase Sitka’s visibility and accessibility to a growing audience of U.S. investors as the Company advances its multiple gold, silver and copper projects. On that note, the Company just received drill permits for its newly staked claim block at the Alpha Gold property in Nevada and anticipates mobilizing a drill rig to test a newly identified Carlin-style gold deposit target there in the next few weeks.”

About the OTCQB

The OTCQB offers developing Canadian companies the benefits of being publicly traded in the U.S. with lower cost and complexity than a U.S. exchange listing. Streamlined market standards enable Canadian companies to provide a strong baseline of transparency to inform and engage U.S. investors. To be eligible, Canadian companies must be current in their SEDAR reporting and undergo an annual verification and management certification process.

As a verified market with efficient access to U.S. investors, the OTCQB helps Canadian companies build shareholder value with a goal of enhancing liquidity and achieving fair valuation. As a result, more Canadian companies are traded on OTC Markets than on New York Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange Market Nasdaq combined. The key benefits of trading on the OTC Markets includes efficient market standards, transparency and visibility. Companies may leverage their SEDAR disclosure (SEC Exchange Act Rule 12g3-2(b)). There are no Sarbanes-Oxley and SEC Reporting requirements to trade on OTCQB, bypassing burdensome, costly and duplicative NYSE and Nasdaq listing requirements.

OTCQB is recognized by the SEC as an established public market. OTCQB companies provide current company information and meet financial standards that enable brokers to more easily quote and trade a security. Companies engage a far greater network of U.S. investors, data distributors and media partners, ensuring U.S. investors have access to the same high-quality information that is available to investors in Canada, but through U.S. platforms and portals to conduct research.
