Nord Precious Metals Announces OTCQB US Symbol Change to "NPMMF"

Nord Precious Metals Mining Inc. has updated its trading symbol on the OTCQB Venture Market to "NPMMF" to better align with its corporate branding and focus on its Northern Ontario assets. The company is advancing its flagship Castle Silver project, which includes high-grade silver discoveries and significant historical resources in the Gowganda Camp. This transition highlights Nord's integrated approach to mining, combining silver production with the recovery of strategic battery metals like cobalt and nickel.

Nord Precious Metals Mining Inc. has transitioned its OTCQB trading symbol from "CCWOF" to "NPMMF" following approval from FINRA, effective June 29, 2026. The company selected the new symbol to more accurately represent its corporate name and its primary operations at the flagship Castle Silver project in Northern Ontario. The 63-square-kilometer property is a significant asset in the Gowganda Camp, now hosting three of the region's five most productive historical silver mines: Siscoe-O'Brien, Castle, and Millerett.

The company's exploration efforts are highlighted by the Castle East discovery, where previous drilling identified a historic inferred resource of 7.56 million ounces of silver at an average grade of 8,582 g/t Ag within the Robinson Zone. Nord is also targeting a substantial tailings resource of approximately 1.94 million tonnes grading 47.5 g/t Ag, which contains nearly 2.96 million ounces of silver. While these figures are currently classified as historical, the company is actively engaged in diamond drilling and analytical work to expand mineralization and update the resource estimates to current NI 43-101 standards.

To maximize the value of its high-grade silver and cobalt assets, Nord operates TTL Laboratories, the only permitted high-grade milling facility in Ontario's historic Cobalt Camp. The company utilizes the Re-2Ox hydrometallurgical process, which has been validated at a pilot scale to produce technical-grade cobalt sulphate while removing arsenic from complex ores. This integrated strategy allows Nord to contribute to the critical minerals supply chain, supported by additional interests such as a 35% ownership in Coniagas Battery Metals and the St. Denis-Sangster lithium project near Cochrane, Ontario.
