Hi-View Resources Inc. will transition its trading symbol from HVWRF (OTCQB) and HVW (CSE) to GXLD on January 12, 2025. The re-branding is designed to enhance name recognition among institutional and retail investors, and to reflect the company’s shift to a focused copper-gold exploration profile. By unifying trading under GXLD on the Canadian Securities Exchange, Hi-View anticipates improved liquidity and tighter bid-ask spreads. Market makers have already signaled readiness to support the new symbol, and the company expects average daily turnover to increase by at least 20% in the first quarter following the change.

Hi-View controls over 27,791 hectares of high-priority exploration ground in the Toodoggone region of northern British Columbia, including the Golden Stranger, Lawyers claims and Borealis projects. These flagship assets exhibit multi-element anomalies—up to 673 ppm Cu and 0.531 ppm Au at Lawyers East, and surface mineralization grading 8.31 g/t Au over 6.9 meters at Golden Stranger. Additional optioned properties such as Saunders, Northern Claims and Nub further diversify the company’s land holdings. The consolidation of these assets under the GXLD banner underscores Hi-View’s commitment to building a district-scale copper-gold portfolio.

CEO R. Nick Horsley emphasized that the new symbol aligns with the company’s next growth phase and will strengthen its corporate identity. Management forecasts a disciplined capital deployment, targeting systematic exploration programs funded by recent equity financings totaling approximately CAD 6.2 million in 2024. Investors are encouraged by the company’s plan to pursue further financings at improved valuations, with the ultimate goal of advancing priority targets—such as the newly identified molybdenum anomaly at Lawyer’s East—to drill-ready status by mid-2025.

In early 2025, GXLD will mobilize crews to conduct follow-up soil sampling, trenching and geophysical surveys across its porphyry and epithermal targets. The company has earmarked CAD 3.5 million for field programs, with initial focus on delineating extensions of the Golden Stranger Main Zone, where historical trenches returned 3.9 meters at 14.26 g/t Au. Concurrently, reconnaissance work on optioned claims will refine drill targets for a maiden program planned for the third quarter. A Qualified Person under NI 43-101 will oversee data integration and report results to investors in a series of technical updates.
