Almaden Announces Extension of Cure Period for NYSE American Listing
Vancouver, B.C. Almaden Minerals Ltd. (“Almaden” or “the Company”; TSX: AMM; NYSE American: AAU)
announces that, further to its press release of April 21, 2023, it has received an extension of its cure deadline from
October 19, 2023 to April 19, 2024 (“New Cure Deadline”).
As previously announced, Almaden is not in compliance with the continued listing standards of the NYSE
American exchange because the Company’s securities have been selling for a low price per share for a substantial
period of time which NYSE American determines to be a 30-trading-day average price of less than US$0.20 per
share. The Company’s continued listing on the NYSE American exchange is predicated on it demonstrating
sustained price improvement within a reasonable period of time which the staff has determined to be no later than
April 19, 2024.
Almaden is considering its alternatives with respect to the requirement that it regain compliance with the NYSE
American’s continued listing standards within the New Cure Deadline.
On Behalf of the Board of Directors,
“J. Duane Poliquin”
