Southern Cross Gold Announces Trading On OTCQX Best Market
Vancouver, British Columbia and Melbourne, Australia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 19, 2025) - Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd (TSX: SXGC) (ASX: SX2) (OTCQX: SXGCF) (FSE: MV3) ("SXGC", "SX2" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its common shares have been approved to trade on the OTCQX® Best Market. The Company's shares will commence trading at the open of the market on August 19, 2025, under its existing ticker symbol "SXGCF". Shareholders will not need to take any action. The OTCQX Market is the highest level of OTC Markets, which operates markets on which more than 12,000 U.S. and international securities trade. Trading on OTCQX enhances visibility and accessibility to U.S. investors. The Company's common shares continue to trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol "SXGC" and on the Australian Securities Exchange under the symbol "SX2". Michael Hudson, President & CEO, states: "Trading on the OTCQX Best Market marks a pivotal moment for Southern Cross Gold. Moving from the Pink Market, where we've seen 10% of our global trading volume, to OTCQX opens the door to significantly greater U.S. investor participation. "With SXG now trading on the ASX, TSX, and OTCQX, we've achieved true round-the-clock trading across the world's major mining investment markets. This global platform connects Australian investors who understand our local advantages, Canadian investors with deep mining expertise, and now enhanced access for U.S. investors seeking exposure to critical minerals and exceptional gold grades. "Sunday Creek has delivered exceptional results - 66 intersections exceeding 100 g/t AuEq x m from just 88 km of drilling - establishing it as one of the Western world's most significant gold-antimony discoveries. Our inclusion in the US Defense Industrial Base Consortium underscores the strategic importance of this dual-metal asset, particularly given antimony's critical role in defense and semiconductor applications. "The OTCQX quotation removes barriers that previously limited U.S. investor access, providing better liquidity and broader broker coverage. With our strong cash position and aggressive 200-km drill program underway, we're excited to engage with an expanded U.S. investor base as we advance this world-class discovery just 60 km from Melbourne." The OTCQX Market is designed for established, investor-focused U.S. and international companies. To qualify for OCTQX, companies must meet high financial standards, follow best-practice corporate governance, and demonstrate compliance with applicable securities laws. Graduation to the OTCQX Market marks an important milestone for companies, enabling them to demonstrate their qualifications and build visibility among U.S. investors. About Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. (TSXV: SXGC) (ASX: SX2) (OTCQX: SXGCF) Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. controls the Sunday Creek Gold-Antimony Project located 60 km north of Melbourne, Australia. Sunday Creek has emerged as one of the Western world's most significant gold and antimony discoveries, with exceptional drilling results including 66 intersections exceeding 100 g/t AuEq x m from just 88 km of drilling. The mineralization follows a "Golden Ladder" structure over 12 km of strike length, with confirmed continuity from surface to 1,100 m depth. Sunday Creek's strategic value is enhanced by its dual-metal profile, with antimony contributing approximately 20 % of the in-situ value alongside gold. This has gained increased significance following China's export restrictions on antimony, a critical metal for defense and semiconductor applications. Southern Cross' inclusion in the US Defense Industrial Base Consortium (DIBC) and Australia's AUKUS-related legislative changes position it as a potential key Western antimony supplier. Importantly, Sunday Creek can be developed primarily based on gold economics, which reduces antimony-related risks while maintaining strategic supply potential. Technical fundamentals further strengthen the investment case, with preliminary metallurgical work showing non-refractory mineralization suitable for conventional processing and gold recoveries of 92-96% through gravity and flotation. With a strong cash position, over 1,000 Ha of strategic freehold land ownership, and a large 60 km drill program planned through Q3 2025, SXGC is well-positioned to advance this globally significant gold-antimony discovery in a tier-one jurisdiction. This announcement has been approved for release by the Board of Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. NI 43-101 Technical Background and Qualified Person Michael Hudson, President and CEO and Managing Director of SXGC, and a Fellow of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, and Mr Kenneth Bush, Exploration Manager of SXGC and a RPGeo (10315) of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists, are the Qualified Persons as defined by the NI 43-101. They have prepared, reviewed, verified and approved the technical contents of this release. Analytical samples are transported to the Bendigo facility of On Site Laboratory Services ("On Site") which operates under both an ISO 9001 and NATA quality systems. Samples were prepared and analyzed for gold using the fire assay technique (PE01S method; 25 g charge), followed by measuring the gold in solution with flame AAS equipment. Samples for multi-element analysis (BM011 and over-range methods as required) use aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS analysis. The QA/QC program of Southern Cross Gold consists of the systematic insertion of certified standards of known gold and antimony content, blanks within interpreted mineralized rock and quarter core duplicates. In addition, On Site inserts blanks and standards into the analytical process. SXGC considers that both gold and antimony that are included in the gold equivalent calculation ("AuEq") have reasonable potential to be recovered and sold at Sunday Creek, given current geochemical understanding, historic production statistics and geologically analogous mining operations. Historically, ore from Sunday Creek was treated onsite or shipped to the Costerfield mine, located 54 km to the northwest of the project, for processing during WW1. The Costerfield mine corridor, now owned by Mandalay Resources Ltd contains two million ounces of equivalent gold (Mandalay Q3 2021 Results), and in 2020 was the sixth highest-grade global underground mine and a top 5 global producer of antimony. SXGC considers that it is appropriate to adopt the same gold equivalent variables as Mandalay Resources Ltd in its 2024 End of Year Mineral Reserves and Resources Press Release, dated February 20, 2025. The gold equivalence formula used by Mandalay Resources was calculated using Costerfield's 2024 production costs, using a gold price of US$2,500 per ounce, an antimony price of US$19,000 per tonne and 2024 total year metal recoveries of 91% for gold and 92% for antimony, and is as follows: AuEq = Au (g/t) + 2.39 x Sb (%) Based on the latest Costerfield calculation and given the similar geological styles and historic toll treatment of Sunday Creek mineralization at Costerfield, SXGC considers that a AuEq = Au (g/t) + 2.39 x Sb (%) is appropriate to use for the initial exploration targeting of gold-antimony mineralization at Sunday Creek. JORC Competent Person Statement Information in this announcement that relates to new exploration results contained in this report is based on information compiled by Mr Kenneth Bush and Mr Michael Hudson. Mr Bush is a Member of Australian Institute of Geoscientists and a Registered Professional Geologist and Member of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and Mr Hudson is a Fellow of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. Mr Bush and Mr Hudson each have sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration, and to the activities undertaken, to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. Mr Bush is Exploration Manager and Mr Hudson is President, CEO and Managing Director of Southern Cross Gold Consolidated Ltd. and both consent to the inclusion in the report of the matters based on their information in the form and context in which it appears. Certain information in this announcement that relates to prior exploration results is extracted from the Independent Geologist's Report dated 11 December 2024 which was issued with the consent of the Competent Person, Mr Steven Tambanis.

MINNEAPOLIS, July 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — PetVivo Holdings, Inc. (OTCQX PETV; OTCID: PETVW) working in cooperation with its wholly-owned subsidiary PetVivo Animal Health, Inc. (collectively 'PetVivo' or the 'Company'), an emerging biomedical device company focused on the commercialization of innovative medical devices and therapeutics for horses and companion animals, such as Spryng® with OsteoCushion® Technology and PrecisePRP®, today announced that the Company has qualified to trade on the OTCQX® Best Market. PetVivo Holdings Inc. upgraded to OTCQX from the OTCQB® Venture Market. PetVivo Holdings Inc. begins trading today on OTCQX under the symbol 'PETV.' U.S. investors can find current financial disclosure and Real-Time Level 2 quotes for the company on . The OTCQX Market is designed for established, investor-focused U.S. and international companies. The OTCQX Market has 625 securities as of today, while the broader OTC Markets Group includes approximately 12,000 securities. To qualify for OTCQX, companies must meet high financial standards, follow best practice corporate governance, and demonstrate compliance with applicable securities laws. Graduating to the OTCQX Market marks an important milestone for companies, enabling them to demonstrate their qualifications and build visibility among U.S. investors. PetVivo's signature product, SPRYNG with OsteoCushion Technology, is an intra-articular injectable veterinary medical device consisting of sterilized, extra-cellular matrix microparticles. The microparticles of Spryng have been found to adsorb onto the joint synovial lining of animals and subsequently integrate with the animal's subsynovial tissue. Such action promotes the restoration of proper joint mechanics, thereby aiding in the management of noninfectious sources of joint pain such as joint instability, degenerative joint disease and osteoarthritis. PetVivo's other innovative product, PrecisePRP, is a first-in-class off-the-shelf platelet-rich plasma (PRP) product designed for use by veterinarians. PrecisePRP is a leucoreduced, allogeneic, pooled, freeze-dried PRP intended to provide a species-specific source of concentrated platelets in plasma for intra-articular administration in dogs and horses. Unlike any PRP mechanical kits currently on the market, PrecisePRP™ does not require a blood draw or centrifugation making it a truly off-the-shelf product that is easy and convenient. Perhaps more important is the uniformity and consistency that PrecisePRP® guarantees. Each vial of PrecisePRP® contains a consistent dose of 4 billion platelets per vial at a concentration of 500,000 platelets per microliter and is leucoreduced with less than 1500 white blood cells per microliter.
