OD6 Metals (ASX:OD6) is seeking a quotation on the OTCQB Venture Market to improve access for US investors as it advances the Quinn Fluorspar Project in Nevada.
The company’s primary listing will remain on the ASX.
OD6 has appointed US-based Viriathus Capital as its non-exclusive financial adviser to assist with the application, certification, disclosure, and ongoing compliance requirements.
Managing Director Brett Hazelden says the move follows growing North American interest in the company and fluorspar’s role in US supply chains.
“Commencing the OTCQB quotation process is a natural next step in OD6’s strategy as we increase our presence in the United States and advance the Quinn Fluorspar Project in Nevada,” Hazelden says.
“The exceptional grades demonstrated at Quinn, together with its location in Nevada and exposure to a critical mineral for which the United States remains 100% net import reliant, provide a compelling foundation for increasing OD6’s visibility in US capital markets.”
He adds that an OTCQB quotation could make the company more accessible to US investors, broaden its shareholder base, and increase awareness of Quinn.
The OTCQB Venture Market is operated by OTC Markets Group (OTCQX:OTCM) for development-stage US and international companies. It allows qualifying securities to trade in the US while retaining a primary listing on a recognised foreign exchange.
OD6 says the proposed quotation would enable investors to trade its securities during North American market hours. However, it remains subject to OTCQB eligibility requirements and acceptance by OTC Markets Group, with no assurance over the timing or approval of the quotation.
Fluorspar is included on the US Government’s 2025 List of Critical Minerals. US Geological Survey data shows the country remains 100% reliant on net imports for the commodity.
Fluorspar is the main commercial source of fluorine and is used to produce hydrofluoric acid, a feedstock for chemicals used across semiconductor manufacturing, aluminium processing, batteries, uranium processing, and defence applications.
OD6 owns 100% of Quinn through 226 mining claims covering around 1,890 hectares. The project contains more than 20 known fluorspar occurrences along an 8km mineralised corridor.
The company says sampling has returned ‘high-grade’, ‘low-impurity’ mineralisation with the potential to produce acidspar and metspar products following beneficiation. Environmental baseline and archaeological studies are underway, alongside optical sorting and other metallurgical test work.
OD6 Metals is an Australian critical minerals explorer and developer with fluorspar, rare earth elements, and copper projects in the US and Australia.
