Bunker Hill Mining Corp., a prominent mining company, has achieved a significant corporate milestone with its approval for listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX). The company remains firmly on schedule to restart its operations in June 2026, as announced in a recent press release from March 23, 2026.
Graduation to Senior Exchange
Sam Ash, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bunker Hill Mining, expressed pride in this development, stating that it represents a crucial step in the company's turnaround journey initiated by its new leadership team in 2020. He emphasized that this move underscores the substantial progress made in building a robust, sustainable, and modern business framework.
Ash highlighted that transitioning to the TSX is not merely a change in listing status but a reflection of the inherent strength of the Bunker Hill mine, the expertise of the operating team, and a steadfast commitment to high standards of corporate governance, transparency, and financial discipline.
Market Impact and Operational Focus
With the Common Shares expected to begin trading on the TSX under the ticker symbol "BNKR" starting March 25, 2026, this graduation is anticipated to enhance the company's profile within the global investment community. It is projected to increase visibility among long-term institutional investors and improve trading liquidity.
Despite market volatility influenced by global events, such as those in the Middle East, Bunker Hill's team remains dedicated to the safe restart of operations, ongoing exploration activities, and maximizing shareholder value through 2026 and beyond. Concurrently, the shares will be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange, with no action required from shareholders.
Progress Toward Restart
The project, encompassing construction and commissioning, is currently 87% complete, positioning it on track for the planned restart in June 2026. The processing facility in Kellogg, Idaho, is advancing through the final phases of dry commissioning ahead of schedule, with electrical systems and final piping installations underway in the Tailings Filter Press.
Hiring efforts are progressing rapidly, with new team members joining weekly. At the Wardner Mining base near the Russell Portal and mine entrance, concrete has been poured for the Paste Plant, which has arrived in Seattle from Australia and will be transported to the site within the next week. All underground development continues ahead of schedule, with the main ramp expected to reach the 9-Level and connect with the Kellogg Tunnel in April.
This strategic move to the TSX, coupled with the steady progress in operational readiness, signals Bunker Hill Mining's commitment to revitalizing its mining activities and delivering long-term value to stakeholders.
