U.S. Gold Corp. (NASDAQ: USAU) (the "Company" or "U.S. Gold") is pleased to announce that the Company has been included in the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ("GDXJ") exchange-traded fund ("ETF"), effective at the close of markets on March 20, 2026, pursuant to the GDXJ quarterly rebalance.
The GDXJ is an ETF that tracks an index of small- and mid-cap companies primarily involved in gold and silver mining, providing investors indirect exposure to precious metals through junior mining equities.
This quarters rebalance included a total of 27 additions to the GDXJ index, with 17 of those being North American companies.
We believe our inclusion in the GDXJ will enhance U.S. Gold's visibility among institutional and retail investors, improve trading liquidity, and broaden our appeal as we continue to derisk and develop our portfolio of gold and gold-copper assets in Wyoming, Nevada, and Idaho. This is an exciting step forward for the Company and our shareholders.
Luke Norman, Executive Chairman of U.S. Gold Corp., added, "Inclusion in the GDXJ represents another validation of U.S. Gold's strategic positioning and strengthens our access to capital markets. As a U.S. focused junior with advanced, permitted assets in stable jurisdictions, the GDXJ inclusion will continue to attract greater institutional interest, improve share liquidity, and support our ongoing efforts to secure financing for project development. It underscores the growing recognition of high-quality North American juniors in a market increasingly favoring domestic, derisked opportunities."
U.S. Gold Corp. is a U.S.-focused gold exploration and development company advancing high-potential projects in Wyoming, Nevada, and Idaho. The Company is committed to creating value through disciplined project advancement, strategic exploration, and responsible operations in stable jurisdictions.
