OceanaGold Begins Trading on the OTCQX

VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 18, 2023 /CNW/ - OceanaGold Corporation (TSX: OGC) ("OceanaGold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has qualified to trade on the OTCQX market in the United States. OceanaGold begins trading today on the OTCQX® Best Market under the symbol "OCANF". U.S. investors can find current financial disclosure and real-time level 2 quotes for the company on www.otcmarkets.com.

Gerard Bond, President & CEO of OceanaGold said, "Trading on the OTCQX will enhance access to OceanaGold shares for more U.S. investors. This is part of our broader strategy to be closer and more accessible to our North American investors, following the delisting from the ASX in 2022."

Upgrading to the OTCQX Best Market is an important step for companies seeking to provide transparent trading for their U.S. investors.  For companies listed on a qualified international exchange, streamlined market standards enable them to utilize their home market reporting to make their information available in the U.S. To qualify for OTCQX, companies must meet high financial standards, follow best practice corporate governance and demonstrate compliance with applicable securities laws.

B. Riley Securities, Inc. acted as the company's OTCQX sponsor.
