York Harbour Metals Upgrades Its American Listing to the OTCQB and Obtains DTC Eligibility

Toronto, October 24, 2023 - York Harbour Metals Inc. (TSXV: YORK) (OTCQB: YORKF) (FSE: 5DE0) ("York Harbour" or the "Company") is pleased to report that York Harbour's USA's ticker symbol "YORKF" has been upgraded to trade on the OTCQB Venture Markets.

It is anticipated that York Harbour's upgraded listing to the OTCQB will provide greater liquidity and a more seamless trading experience for our U.S. shareholders. With enhanced reporting requirements and greater transparency required with the OTCQB listing, the upgrade also provides exemptions from U.S. state securities laws or "blue sky" exemptions which may help to further increase liquidity and expand investment advisors' ability to research and recommend investment in York Harbour.

Furthermore, the Company is pleased to announce that it has obtained eligibility with the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") for its common shares now listed on the OTCQB. The DTC is a stock depository that facilitates and simplifies the electronic trading of securities in the United States.

York Harbour's common shares, listed on the OTCQB under YORKF, are now eligible for electronic clearing and settlement through DTC's automated processes. This electronic method of clearing securities speeds up the receipt of stock and cash, as well as accelerates the settlement process for some investors. DTC services also provide cost benefits for investors and brokers trading Canadian securities in the United States. With the shares now traded electronically, existing (and future) investors will benefit from greater liquidity over time and execution speeds, while new investors are far less restricted from participating in York Harbour's stock.

DTC, a subsidiary of the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC), is a member of the United States Federal Reserve System and a registered clearing agency with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
