Corporate Update
APPLICATION FOR SHARE TRADING ON THE OTCQX MARKET
IronRidge targeting North American investors
IronRidge Resources Limited (AIM: IRR, "IronRidge" or the
"Company") is pleased to announce that it has filed an application
for the Company to trade on the OTC Market's OTCQX Best Market
("OTCQX") trading platform in the USA, which will make IronRidge's
shares more widely available to North American investors.
The Company has identified a supporting broker and market maker
and is completing the necessary regulatory documentation and
application materials for submission to the OTC Market's compliance
group.
Trading on the OTC QX market will have no impact on the trading
of IronRidge 's existing ordinary shares on AIM and no new ordinary
shares will be issued as part of the cross-trade facility.
IronRidge will continue to adhere to all regulatory requirements
relating to its listing on the AIM market of the London Stock
Exchange and will have no Sarbanes-Oxley or SEC reporting
requirements.
The OTCQX is in the top tier of OTC markets and lists companies,
including blue-chip level companies, which are not listed on
traditional exchanges in the USA. Companies listed on the OTCQX
market have to follow certain rules and criteria and are subject to
their home market regulation, in this instance the AIM market of
the London Stock Exchange plc in the U.K.
The Company believes that listing on the OTCQX Market, under the
ticker symbol "IRRLF", is a natural step forward to address global
Lithium interest and will potentially provide enhanced investor
benefits, including easier access in the United States, and greater
liquidity.
Commenting, Vincent Mascolo, Chief Executive Officer of
IronRidge, said:
" Following our recent landmark partnership with Piedmont
Lithium Inc., which will fully fund the Company's standout Ewoyaa
Lithium Project in Ghana to production for US$102m , coupled with
President Joe Biden 's comments concerning the importance of
Lithium, we have started a process of inter-listing the Company's
shares in New York on the OTC Market's OTCQX trading platform which
is a natural and beneficial step for the Company and all
shareholders. The Board looks forward to updating shareholders on
progress in this respect in due course."
