U.S. investors can find current financial disclosure and Real-Time Level 2 quotes for the company on www.otcmarkets.com.

Robert Eckford, CEO of Rua Gold, commented: "The graduation to the OTCQX Best Market is a natural progression aligned with the Company's growth. This milestone coincides with the launch of an expanded exploration program at our gold-antimony project in the Reefton Goldfield on the South Island of New Zealand. This advancement enhances our visibility among U.S. investors, improves liquidity, and underscores our commitment to creating long-term shareholder value as we execute our 2026 growth plan."

Upgrading to the OTCQX Best Market is an important step for companies seeking to provide transparent trading for their U.S. investors. For companies listed on a qualified international exchange, streamlined market standards enable them to utilize their home market reporting to make their information available in the U.S. To qualify for OTCQX, companies must meet high financial standards, follow best practice corporate governance and demonstrate compliance with applicable securities laws.

Along with trading on OTCQX, common shares of Rua Gold will continue to trade on the TSX and NZX.
