Upgrading to the OTCQX Market is an important step for companies seeking to provide transparent trading for their U.S. investors.

Thomas Credland, Head of Corporate Development for Rupert Resources said, "We are delighted to graduate to the OTCQX as we expand our U.S. retail and institutional register following our successful C$47.8million financing in June of this year. This the ideal time to engage more fully with a sophisticated new audience as we to work towards a maiden resource for Rupert's 100% owned Ikkari Discovery in Northern Finland, less than 18 months after it was first drilled in the Q2 2020 which we believe has the potential to become one of the most significant new discoveries of this gold cycle."
