HOUSTON, July 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MTM Critical Metals Ltd (ASX: MTM; OTCQX: MTMCF), rebranding soon as Metallium Ltd, has achieved a pivotal milestone in its North American expansion strategy by ascending to the OTCQX® Best Market, the top tier of the over-the-counter trading landscape. The upgraded listing underscores the company’s growing prominence in the U.S. capital markets and aims to broaden its appeal to institutional and retail investors alike.
The transition from the OTCQB® Venture Market reflects MTM’s strategic push to enhance liquidity and accessibility for U.S.-based traders. “Elevating to OTCQX isn’t just a symbolic achievement—it’s a critical enabler for our shareholder base,” said Michael Walshe, Managing Director and CEO of MTM Critical Metals. “With trading now streamlined in U.S. dollars during local hours, and our inaugural Flash Joule Heating facility underway in Texas, we’re positioning ourselves at the nexus of sustainable materials innovation and investor opportunity.”
Walshe emphasized that the move aligns with MTM’s broader ambitions to bolster “Blue Sky” regulatory compliance across multiple states, potentially paving the way for a Level 1 American Depositary Receipt (ADR) program. “This upgrade amplifies our visibility as we pivot toward large-scale commercialization,” he noted.
MTM’s U.S. subsidiary, Flash Metals USA Inc, recently secured a strategic site in Texas for its first commercial plant. The facility will target high-value metals recovery—including gallium, germanium, rare earth elements, and precious metals—from mineral concentrates and electronic waste streams, leveraging proprietary thermal technology designed to bypass traditional smelting processes.
The company’s trajectory has been further buoyed by a recent $50 million institutional capital raise, which Walshe described as “fuel for accelerating our U.S. commercialization roadmap.” He added, “Our rebrand to Metallium Ltd signifies a new chapter: marrying cutting-edge, low-carbon extraction methods with supply chain resilience in critical materials.”
Innovation Meets Industrial Strategy
Flash Metals USA’s proprietary Flash Joule Heating (FJH) process represents a paradigm shift in metals recovery. The patented technology uses rapid thermal pulses to extract strategic metals from waste and ore without acids or energy-intensive smelting—a solution aligned with U.S. industrial decarbonization goals. The modular design of MTM’s Texas plant allows scalability, targeting markets such as semiconductors, renewable energy infrastructure, and advanced electronics.
With rare earths and tech metals gaining geopolitical significance, MTM’s upgraded market presence positions it to capitalize on soaring demand. Industry analysts highlight that efficient domestic supply chains for these materials could mitigate reliance on overseas sources, a priority underscored by recent federal incentives.
Corporate Profile
MTM Critical Metals Ltd (soon Metallium Ltd) operates through its U.S.-based subsidiary Flash Metals USA, focusing on sustainable resource recovery. Its flagship FJH technology is heralded for its potential to disrupt traditional mining and recycling sectors by slashing both costs and carbon footprints.
