Purecore Metals OTCQB Listing

Purecore Metals Inc., a Canadian critical minerals company focused on uranium and copper, announced on August 18, 2026 that its common shares commenced trading on the OTCQB Venture Market Venture Market in the United States under the symbol 'PPURF'. The listing is non-dilutive, with no capital raised and no new shares issued. The Canadian Securities Exchange remains the primary listing, where shares trade under 'PURE'. The company has applied for Depository Trust Company (DTC) eligibility to support electronic clearing and settlement in U.S. brokerage accounts. The listing aims to expand U.S. investor access, particularly given the strong U.S. demand for uranium, with U.S. utilities having 184 million pounds of unfilled uranium requirements through 2034. Canada is the largest supplier of uranium to the U.S., and Purecore holds an option on the Yurchison Uranium Property in the Canada — Athabasca Basin. The company also owns the Bankier Property in British Columbia. The listing follows increased U.S. policy attention on nuclear capacity and uranium supply from allied jurisdictions.
