Westminster Resources Ltd. to List in Australia and Re-Brand
Jason Cubitt, Westminster's President and CEO, commented, "Australia has a rich mining culture and the ASX is second only to Canada's TSX for the number of listed mineral exploration and development companies. We look forward to gaining exposure to this important retail and institutional market and further diversifying our existing Australian shareholder base with this listing."
As a result of this listing, the Company expects to benefit from both access to capital and overall liquidity as it develops its Latin American projects. With a financing just completed and work programs scheduled at both Peruvian and Chilean operations, Westminster is well positioned to build shareholder value in the coming months.
