Upside Gold Corp. announced that its common shares have begun trading on the OTCQB Venture Market in the United States under the symbol UGODF. The company's shares will continue to trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol UG and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol 47I.

This development aligns with the company's focus on advancing the Kena Gold-Copper Project through systematic exploration and drilling programs. The project, located in southeastern British Columbia, consists of 198 mineral claims covering 10,114.8 hectares, along with 11 crown grants covering approximately 92 hectares. It hosts a historical gold resource, including an Indicated Mineral Resource of 32,146,000 tonnes at an average grade of 0.544 g/t Au for 0.561 million ounces of gold, and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 177,507,000 tonnes at an average grade of 0.486 g/t Au for 2.77 million ounces of gold.

The historical resource estimate is detailed in the technical report entitled NI 43-101 Resource Estimate for the Kena and Daylight Properties, prepared by Sue Bird, P.Eng. of Moose Mountain Technical Services and filed on SEDAR. However, a Qualified Person has not classified the historical estimate as current mineral resources, and Upside Gold Corp. is not treating it as such, providing it for informational purposes only. The company cautions that forward-looking information in the announcement involves risks and uncertainties, such as regulatory approvals, commodity price fluctuations, and exploration outcomes. Factors that could impact results include delays in project development, changes in equity markets, and risks outlined in Upside Gold's public documents filed on SEDAR. Despite these uncertainties, the OTCQB listing marks a significant step in enhancing the company's capital markets profile and supporting its long-term growth objectives in the mineral exploration industry.
