(TSX-V: TECT; OTCQX: TETOF), a mineral exploration company, has qualified to trade on the OTCQX® Best Market. Tectonic Metals Inc. upgraded to OTCQX from the OTCQB® Venture Market.

The OTCQX Market is designed for established, investor-focused U.S. and international companies.

Graduating to the OTCQX Market marks an important milestone for companies, enabling them to demonstrate their qualifications and build visibility among U.S. investors.
Tony Reda, Co-Founder, President & CEO of Tectonic Metals, commented: "Trading on the OTCQX is a major milestone that furthers our strategy to expand Tectonic's reach across North American capital markets. The completion of our largest financing to date, which raised more than C$92 million in March 2026, was a key catalyst that supported this transition. With five rigs now turning at our Flat Gold Project in Alaska as part of our largest-ever drill program, we are well positioned to broaden our U.S. investor base and increase market awareness at a pivotal stage in the Company's growth."
