Andean Silver Limited (ASX: ASL) is pleased to announce that it has been added to the VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF, known globally as the GDXJ. The GDXJ is a globally-recognized exchange-traded fund designed to track the performance of the more liquid small and mid-capitalisation companies in the global gold and silver mining industries. Andean's inclusion is effective from market open on Monday, 23 March 2026. Andean Chief Executive Matthew Allen stated that the inclusion reflects the excellent work done by the Andean team at their flagship Cerro-Bayo silver-gold project, including the successful delivery of their exploration program and resource growth since the completion of the acquisition only two years ago. The GDXJ is one of the largest exchange-traded funds dedicated to junior gold and silver companies, with approximately US$9.7 billion in total net assets. Inclusion in this ETF may increase Andean's common share liquidity and further position Andean as an investment opportunity for investors seeking exposure to a diverse collection of precious metals projects in top mining jurisdictions globally.
