Thistle Resources Files for OTCQB Venture Market Under Symbol "TRCGF", DTC Eligibility and Enhances US Market Access
Thistle's U.S. Market Access Supports Growing US Investor Interest in Gold and Strategic Critical Minerals Projects
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 8, 2026) - Thistle Resources Inc. (TSXV: TRCG) (OTC Pink: TRCGF) (the "Company" or "Thistle") is pleased to announce that the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") has accepted the Company's Form 211 for filing and its common shares have begun trading on the OTC Pink Market in the United States under the symbol "TRCGF".
The Company will temporarily trade on the OTC Pink Market while we await our OTCQB final approval for its common shares to trade on the OTCQB® Venture Market ("OTCQB"). The OTCQB application remains subject to the approval of OTC Markets Group Inc. and the satisfaction of certain listing requirements. The Company's common shares will continue to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "TRCG".
DTC eligibility is expected to simplify the process of trading and transferring the Company's common shares in the United States, reduce costs and administrative requirements for investors and brokerage firms, and improve overall trading efficiency and liquidity. DTC eligibility enables the Company's shares to be electronically cleared and settled through a broad network of U.S. brokerage firms, expanding accessibility for both retail and institutional investors.
Patrick J. Cruickshank, MBA, President, CEO and Director, stated "The commencement of filing for trading on the OTCQB Venture Market in the United States and DTC eligibility represents important milestones for Thistle as we continue to expand our visibility and accessibility to U.S. investors. Investors can now acquire Thistle shares under (OTC Pink- TRCGF) while we await full OTCQB Listing & DTC eligibility. These advancements will provide greater transparency, improved trading accessibility and enhanced liquidity for existing and prospective shareholders as we continue to increase awareness of Thistle throughout North America. We look forward to advancing both projects while expanding our shareholder base through enhanced access to U.S. capital markets."
With growing investor interest in both precious metals and strategic critical minerals, we believe Thistle offers investors a unique combination of exposure to both gold and antimony, one of North America's emerging strategic critical minerals. Our flagship Middle River Gold and Brunswick Antimony Projects provide exposure to two compelling commodity themes at a time when governments and investors are increasingly focused on securing domestic critical mineral supply chains while maintaining exposure to traditional safe-haven assets such as gold.
