Santacruz Silver Receives Conditional Approval to Graduate to the Toronto Stock Exchange

Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. (SCZ) has received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) to list its common shares, subject to satisfying customary listing requirements. Upon final approval, the Company’s shares will be voluntarily delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange and commence trading on the TSX under the existing symbol "SCZ".

Shareholders are not required to take any action in connection with the graduation. The Company is currently working to satisfy remaining conditions, including the receipt of final documentation, and will issue a subsequent release confirming the specific trading commencement date once it is confirmed by the TSX.

Executive Chairman and CEO Arturo Préstamo stated the graduation is an important milestone that enhances visibility within the global investment community and provides access to deeper capital markets.

"We are very pleased to have received conditional approval to graduate to the Toronto Stock Exchange, which represents an important milestone for Santacruz. This development reflects the progress we have made in strengthening the Company and represents a significant step forward in our evolution as a growing, diversified Latin American silver and base metals producer," Préstamo said.

He added, "The TSX is one of the world’s premier mining exchanges, and upon completion of the graduation, we believe the listing will enhance Santacruz’s visibility and profile within the global investment community, while providing our shareholders with access to one of the world’s deepest and most sophisticated capital markets."
