Canadian mining company Genius Metals Inc. will officially change its name to Morocco Strategic Minerals Corporation, starting January 31, 2025, according to a statement from the company.
The decision, overwhelmingly approved by shareholders at the company’s annual and special meeting on January 16, aligns with the company’s strategic focus on Moroccan mineral exploration.
Shareholders representing more than 99% of votes cast supported the resolution to adopt the new name, which will also be recognized in French as “Corporation de minéraux stratégiques du Maroc.”
The company’s common shares will continue to trade on the Toronto TSX Venture Exchange under the existing symbol GENI until the name change takes effect. Starting January 31, trading will transition to the new symbol, MCC.
Existing share certificates will remain valid until they are transferred, re-registered, or exchanged.
