September 09, 2021 at 11:12 AM EDT

Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 9, 2021) - Cortus Metals Inc. (TSXV: CRTS) (OTCQB: CRTTF) ("Cortus" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its common shares are now listed for trading in the United States on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol "CRTTF". The Company has additionally secured Depository Trust Company ("DTC") eligibility for its common shares traded in the United States. The Company profile can be viewed at the OTC Market website at https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/CRTTF/quote where North American and international investors can find Real-Time level 2 quotes (denominated in US dollars) along with current market information and Company news. Cortus' common shares will continue to trade in Canada on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") under the symbol "CRTS" and primary reporting for public disclosure will continue to be found under the company profile at www.sedar.com.

Cortus CEO, Sean Mager commented: "There is strong interest in Cortus from US-based retail and institutional investors as we continue to define high-priority drill targets and advance our portfolio of 20+ highly prospective epithermal and Carlin-type gold-silver properties in Nevada. Our new OTCQB listing with DTC eligibility now provides exemptions from U.S state securities laws or "Blue Sky" exemptions which will enable US-based investment advisors to research and recommend investment in Cortus. It will also enable US-based investors to execute orders with greater ease on many popular trading platforms such as Fidelity, TD Ameritrade, Charles Schwab, TradeStation, FirstTrade, Interactive Brokers and E-Trade where access to Cortus' common shares listed on the TSXV may have been limited previously."

About the OTCQB
The OTCQB® Venture Market is recognized by the Securities and Exchange Commission as an established public market providing public information for analysis. An OTCQB listing offers early-stage and developing U.S. and international companies the benefits of being publicly traded in the U.S. with lower cost and complexity than a U.S. exchange listing. Streamlined market standards enable Canadian companies to provide a strong baseline of transparency to inform and engage U.S. investors. To be eligible, Canadian companies must be current in their SEDAR reporting and undergo an annual verification and management certification process. As a verified market with efficient access for U.S. investors, OTCQB helps companies build shareholder value with the goal of enhancing liquidity and achieving a fair valuation.

About the Depository Trust Company
The Depository Trust Company is a subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation and manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies. Securities that are eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through the DTC are considered "DTC eligible". This electronic method of clearing securities speeds up the receipt of stock and cash, and thus accelerates the settlement process for investors trading the Company's shares on the OTCQB with reduced costs for U.S. investors and brokers, enabling the Company's common shares to be traded through a much wider selection of firms through an electronic method of clearing securities.
