First Tellurium Corp. has successfully uplisted from the OTC Pink Market to the OTCQB Venture Market. The uplisting has been approved by OTC Markets Group Inc. and the company commenced trading on the OTCQB on Tuesday, June 20, 2023. The company will continue to trade under the symbol FSTTF.

"Upgrading our OTC market listing has been an important, long-term goal of the company," said First Tellurium president and chief executive officer Tyrone Docherty. "This milestone gives us far greater access and exposure to the crucial U.S. investment market, allowing us to attract a larger shareholder audience.

"The OTCQB is recognized as an established public market by the [U.S.] Securities and Exchange Commission, and it offers investors transparent, high-quality trading."

First Tellurium's Klondike tellurium-gold project in Colorado and Deer Horn tellurium-gold-silver-copper project in British Columbia anchor the company's objective to supply critical and essential metals for North American markets. Tellurium, used in high-efficiency cadmium-telluride (Cd-Te) solar panels, next-generation lithium-ion batteries and thermoelectric devices (changing heat into energy), is an essential element for the world's transition to green energy.
