Yukon Gold Corporation, Inc. Lists on Frankfurt
Stock Exchange
Toronto,
September 5, 2007 Yukon Gold Corporation, Inc. (“Yukon Gold” or the
"Company"), (TSX:YK) (OTCBB:YGDC) is pleased to announce that
its common shares are now also listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the
ticker symbol W8Y and the German securities code (WKN) A0JJ6Z.
Yukon Gold CEO, Paul Gorman commented, "European
investors have a strong interest for investing in both base and precious metals
companies. Particularly Canadian based companies with projects where there is
leverage to rising commodity prices plus the blue-sky potential of an
aggressive exploration program that can significantly increase mineral
resources. This new listing provides the company with increased exposure to
worldwide capital markets. This is a major step towards furthering the
objectives of improving our visibility with the investment community and
increasing investor awareness globally."
"Listing on the Frankfurt exchange will
increase the profile of Yukon Gold with both private and institutional
investors in Germany and
across Europe. It will now allow investors
timely access to the Company’s shares and increase Yukon Gold’s
profile. This opportunity to broaden our shareholder base comes at an excellent
time for our company as we move into the next phase of our corporate growth
initiative," stated Mr. Gorman
Recently, there has been an influx of
junior resources companies listing on the Frankfurt
market, resulting in tremendous growth in shareholder awareness and shareholder
value of those companies. This new listing in Germany will not dilute Yukon
Gold’s shares.
Trading on the TSX, Nasdaq OTC BB and on
the Frankfurt Stock Exchange will assist building a better investor foundation
to move forward. The Frankfurt Stock Exchange provides full-service trading
capabilities, which include a trading floor as well as an electronic trading
exchange, XETRA.
