Scotia Metals Corp. Announces U.S. Listing on OTCQB

(CSE: SMET) (OTCQB: CSRVF) (FSE: C6R0) Scotia Metals Corp. announced that its common shares have commenced trading on the OTCQB marketplace under the symbol 'CSRVF'. The company's shares will continue to trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol 'SMET' and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under 'C6R0'. The company expects that the OTCQB listing will provide greater visibility and convenience of trading for US investors, resulting in enhanced liquidity and greater reach. With the OTCQB listing in the United States, together with its existing listings on the Canadian Securities Exchange and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Scotia Metals' shares are now available to investors across three major markets: the United States, Canada, and Europe. Rodrigo Roso, Chief Executive Officer & Director, stated that the listing on OTCQB helps introduce Scotia Metals to a larger audience and improve liquidity in the stock, which is an important factor in the company's development. He also noted that the US market is indispensable for accessing larger pools of capital, and the US listing provides US investors easier access to transact Scotia Metals shares. Roso highlighted that with North America racing to build a domestic lithium supply chain, the capital required to bring new mines online is enormous, and US investors will play a central role in developing it. According to Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, North America's share of global mined lithium supply is forecast to grow from just 1.7% today to 13% by 2050, as global demand more than triples and requires the equivalent of 134 new mines and over US$100 billion in investment. The OTCQB Market is for early stage and developing U.S. and international companies, and companies are current in their reporting and undergo an annual verification and management certification process. Scotia Metals Corp.'s principal asset is the 100%-owned Acadia Lithium Project (formerly known as the L3 Lithium Project) in southwestern Nova Scotia, Canada. The Acadia Lithium Project comprises 43 exploration licences covering 37,268 hectares and 2,320 mineral claims, making it the largest lithium land package in Atlantic Canada. The project spans more than 80 kilometres of prospective LCT pegmatite strike on trend with the Brazil Lake spodumene deposit. The project benefits from deep-water port access, grid power, paved road and airport infrastructure, and year-round operating conditions.
