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.

The OTC Markets, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., offer early stage and developing U.S. and

international companies the benefits of being publicly traded in the United States without the complexity

and cost of a U.S. exchange listing. The OTC Pink Market provides brokers a platform for transparent

trading with the goal of enhancing liquidity, achieving fair valuation and providing efficient access to U.S.

investors. The OTCQB Venture Market, to which the Company has applied, is a premier marketplace for

entrepreneurial and development-stage companies; to qualify, companies must be current in their

financial reporting, meet minimum bid price requirements, complete annual verification and

management certification, and maintain compliance with applicable securities laws. Investors can find
