Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – November 12, 2026) – Scotia Metals Corp. (CSE: SMET) (OTCQB: CSRVF) (FSE: C6R0) (“Scotia Metals” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its common shares have commenced trading on the OTCQB marketplace under the symbol “CSRVF“. The Company’s common shares will continue to trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol “SMET”.
The Company expects that the listing on the OTCQB will provide greater visibility and convenience of trading for US investors, resulting in enhanced liquidity and greater reach.
With the OTCQB listing in the United States, together with its existing listings on the Canadian Securities Exchange and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSE:C6R0), Scotia Metals’ shares are now available to investors across three major markets: the United States, Canada and Europe.
“The listing on OTCQB helps introduce Scotia Metals to a larger audience and improve liquidity in the stock, which is an important factor in the Company’s development,” said Rodrigo Roso, CEO. “The US market is indispensable for accessing larger pools of capital, and the US listing provides US investors easier access to transact Scotia Metals shares. With North America racing to build a domestic lithium supply chain, the capital required to bring new mines online is enormous, and US investors will play a central role in developing it.”
According to Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, North America’s share of global mined lithium supply is forecast to grow from just 1.7% today to 13% by 2050, as global demand more than triples and requires the equivalent of 134 new mines and over US$100 billion in investment.1
