COEUR D'ALENE, ID / ACCESS Newswire / September 16, 2025 / Idaho Strategic Resources, Inc. (NYSE American:IDR) ("IDR", "Idaho Strategic" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it is has been added to the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF ("GDXJ") pursuant to the GDXJ's quarterly review and rebalancing announced on September 14th, 2025, which is expected to be effective at market close on September 19th, 2025.
Idaho Strategic's President and CEO, John Swallow commented, "Idaho Strategic's inclusion in the GDXJ is the latest corporate milestone for the Company since its inclusion in the Russell 3000 index, further raising its profile amongst retail and institutional investors. IDR's inclusion reflects the successful execution of our strategy to organically grow the Company's operations and exploration, along with a global renewed interest in precious metals." Mr. Swallow added, "It would appear the first phase of the re-discovery of our industry is in place. And while many appear to remain single commodity focused, it will be interesting to see how the value drivers for our sector evolve. IDR remains a good example that companies with ounces in the ground and plans for big production are still not looked at the same as producing companies. We have several initiatives underway designed to build upon our current momentum, including resource expansion drilling at the Golden Chest mine, exploration drilling in the broader Murray Gold Belt District, and the construction of our previously mentioned paste backfill system and new Murray Mill facility."
