Viva Gold Corp. Common Shares Now DTC Eligible
VANCOUVER, BC – October 1st, 2018 – Viva Gold Corp. (TSX-Venture: VAU; OTCBB:
VAUCF) (the “Company” or “Viva”) is pleased to announce that common shares of Viva Gold are now
Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) eligible in the United States. This electronic method of clearing
securities speeds up the receipt of stock and cash, reduces costs, and boost efficiencies in the marketplace.
Additionally, being DTC eligible increases the number of brokerage firms able to trade the stock, as many
brokerages do not allow the trading of non DTC eligible stocks due to the associated costs. The Company
believes this will provide improved liquidity for existing shareholders and new investors alike.
