Big Ridge Gold Announces OTCQB Listing and
DTC Eligibility
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 2, 2021) - Big Ridge Gold Corp. (TSXV: BRAU) (OTCQB:
ALVLF) ("
Big Ridge
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce that the company's common shares
are now trading on the OTCQB Venture Market ("OTCQB"), a US trading platform operated by the OTC
Markets Group, under the symbol "ALVLF".
"Listing on OTCQB is part of a longer-term strategy to expose the Company to a broader audience,"
said Mike Bandrowski, President and CEO of Big Ridge. "We believe trading on OTCQB will help the
company increase liquidity by providing our current and future American retail investors with a trading
platform."
OTCQB is the premier marketplace for entrepreneurial and development stage U.S. and international
companies that are committed to providing a high-quality trading and information experience for their US
investors. To be eligible, companies must be current in their financial reporting, pass a minimum bid
price test, and undergo an annual company verification and management certification process. The
OTCQB Venture quality standards provide a strong baseline of transparency, as well as the technology
and regulation to improve the information and trading experience for investors.
In addition, Big Ridge announced today that its common shares are now eligible for electronic clearing
and settlement through the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") in the United States. Through the OTCQB
listing, American investors may now more easily trade the Company's stock in addition to Big Ridge's
listing on the TSX Venture Exchange.
DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, a U.S. company that manages the
electronic clearing and settlement of shares of publicly traded companies. Securities that are eligible to
be electronically cleared and settled through DTC are considered to be "DTC eligible". The electronic
clearing and settlement of Big Ridge's shares in the United States is far more convenient and reduces
the costs incurred in trading shares. With Big Ridge's shares now traded electronically, existing investors
will benefit from greater liquidity over time and execution speeds, while new investors will face fewer
restrictions on their ability to acquire shares.
