ANCHORAGE, Alaska, June 2, 2025 – U.S. GoldMining Inc. (NASDAQ: USGO) (referred to as “U.S. GoldMining” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce its inclusion in the Russell 3000® Index, a broad market index. This follows a preliminary list published by FTSE on its website related to the index’s annual review. The change is expected to take effect after the U.S. Market closes on June 27, 2025.
The Russell US indexes are reviewed annually, capturing the 4,000 largest US stocks as of April 30, ranked by their total market capitalization. Being a member of the Russell 3000® Index for a year means automatic inclusion in either the large-cap Russell 1000® Index or the small-cap Russell 2000® Index, along with relevant growth and value style indexes. FTSE Russell determines membership in its Russell indexes mainly through objective market-capitalization rankings and style attributes.
Investment managers and institutional investors widely use Russell indexes for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. According to data from the end of June 2024, approximately $10.6 trillion in assets are benchmarked against the Russell US indexes, which are part of FTSE Russell, a global index provider.
Tim Smith, Chief Executive Officer of U.S. GoldMining, stated: “The preliminary inclusion in the Russell 3000® Index is a significant recognition of U.S. GoldMining’s accomplishments. This highlights the value creation at our Whistler Gold-Copper Project (the “Project”) in Alaska in the short time since our IPO in April 2023. The numerous high-priority exploration targets at the Project, combined with the recently announced plans to start an initial economic assessment, give us strong encouragement about the potential to unlock substantial additional value for stakeholders. This is especially true given recent record-high gold prices and the predicted strong future demand for copper.”
