Ongwe Minerals Inc. has commenced trading on the Namibia Securities Exchange (NSX) under the symbol “ONG”, following the completion of all listing requirements.
The dual listing, effective 15 April 2026, allows the company to maintain its primary listing on the TSX Venture Exchange while expanding its presence in Namibia’s capital market.
Chief Executive Officer Dave Underwood said the listing is aimed at strengthening the company’s engagement with local investors.
“The dual listing of Ongwe on the Namibian Securities Exchange is a very important step in building Ongwe’s local Namibian capital markets presence. Ongwe is fortunate to have a dedicated and substantial base of Namibian shareholders, many of whom have shared in the prior successes of the Ongwe team, through Osino Resources and Koryx Copper, both of whom were listed and raised significant capital on the Namibian exchange,” he said.
He added that the NSX listing is designed to improve access for investors and support future capital raising.
“This listing is specifically designed to streamline the process for both institutional and retail investors to trade our shares or participate in upcoming capital raises. Beyond simply strengthening our ties with the local investment community, this move reflects our deep-seated confidence in Namibia’s status as a top-tier mining jurisdiction. By diversifying our shareholder base and bolstering market liquidity, we are building a more resilient platform for future growth, while simultaneously ensuring that Namibian citizens have a direct path to benefit from the country’s mineral wealth,” Underwood said.
Ongwe Minerals is a Canadian-listed gold exploration company focused on Namibia, with projects in the north-west Damara gold belt.
At the Omatjete Gold Project, early exploration has identified the Manga Gold Prospect, which spans approximately 4.5km by 1km and has shown promising gold-in-soil anomalies alongside initial drilling results. The project is located along the Okondeka Fault Zone.
The Khorixas Gold Project, located about 60km west of Osino’s Eureka deposit, hosts two surface discoveries, Belmont and K17. The Belmont prospect covers approximately 12km by 6km, with multiple target zones identified.
The company’s leadership team has been involved in several gold discoveries and developments in Namibia, including Twin Hills, Eureka and the Otjikoto gold mine.
