Canary Gold Corp. announced that its common shares will commence trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol "CNYGF" at the open of trading on March 19, 2026. This development represents a strategic expansion of the company's market presence, particularly aimed at increasing accessibility for U.S.-based investors. The OTCQB, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., is a recognized U.S. public market for entrepreneurial and development-stage companies that meet current reporting standards.
Mark Tommasi, President of Canary Gold, stated that listing on the OTCQB marks an important step in expanding the company's market presence. He emphasized that this enhanced North American exposure is expected to help broaden the shareholder base and elevate the company's profile during a pivotal period of exploration advancement. The company continues to trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol "BRAZ" and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol "K5D".
The move to the OTCQB is significant for investor accessibility, as it facilitates trading in U.S. dollars during U.S. market hours. Real-time quotes and market information for Canary Gold will be available at https://www.otcmarkets.com under the ticker "CNYGF", which is anticipated to support increased liquidity and broader investor engagement. This accessibility is crucial for a company in the exploration phase, as it relies on capital markets to fund its ambitious projects.
This milestone coincides with the company's active advancement of its district-scale Madeira River Project in Brazil. A 20,000-metre, dual-rig drill program is currently underway at the project, which is located in Rondônia State. The project represents a large, underexplored land position prospective for gold hosted in Mocururu duricrust and related paleo-channel systems within the broader Madeira River region. Canary Gold's strategy involves systematically advancing the project through modern exploration, target generation, and drilling with the goal of defining the scale of the gold system across its land package.
The importance of this news extends beyond mere stock listing. For the mining industry, particularly in the junior exploration sector, access to U.S. investors represents a critical source of capital. The OTCQB listing provides a regulated pathway for U.S. investors to participate in Canary Gold's exploration story, potentially accelerating the company's ability to fund its drilling campaigns and advance its Brazilian assets. For global commodities markets, successful exploration in Brazil's historically productive gold regions could contribute to future gold supply, though such outcomes remain speculative at this early stage.
Investors should note that trading on the OTCQB does not change the fundamental nature of the company's business or guarantee commercial success. The company's forward-looking statements regarding exploration programs and potential results involve risks and uncertainties, as detailed in its continuous disclosure filings.
