Gold Royalty’s diversified portfolio consists of over 200 royalties located in mining friendly jurisdictions throughout the Americas. This provides investors with lower risk exposure to gold with free exploration upside on the underlying projects.
Asset Classification Definitions:
Producing | A project is considered to be “Producing” when the underlying property, or part of it, is subject to actively mining the deposit(s) to produce a payable product and the Company’s royalty is cash flowing based on this production. |
Developing | A project is considered to be “Developing” when the project has sufficiently initiated or completed economic studies (e.g., Preliminary Economic Assessment, Pre-Feasibility Study or Feasibility Study) or where the operator has otherwise disclosed an active plan or decision to construct mine workings including a reasonable estimate with projected costs and timeline to commence development which will lead to eventual production. In most cases, the project will have a Mineral Resource estimate and in some cases there may also be a Mineral Reserve estimate. Generally, Developing projects will be in active construction or development towards production, while others are sufficiently advanced and will be based upon sufficient confidence of the operator that construction and development towards production will occur. Developing projects also include assets which previously produced and have been placed on Care and Maintenance or assets that are currently producing but the Company’s royalty does not cover the producing part of the mine. |
Advanced-Exploration | A project is considered to be “Advanced-Exploration” when exploration work has advanced sufficiently to prepare a Mineral Resource estimate or material exploration activities are occurring or are planned to occur that are designed to support a Mineral Resource estimate. on the property. Exploration work may include enhancing geological studies, drilling programs, technical studies, and any other work including permitting activities that would de-risk the project. Advanced Exploration projects may have had study work initiated or completed to better understand economic potential on the property, but which has generally not resulted in work being approved, initiated or advanced that would substantially progress the project towards development and eventual production. |
Early-Exploration | A project is generally considered to be “Early-Exploration” when there has been primarily early-stage exploration activities (such as geophysics, geochemical sampling, lithological / structural mapping, etc.) or insufficient exploration work to prepare a Mineral Resource estimate. In some cases, the project may have a historical Mineral Resource estimate or an Inferred Mineral Resource estimate but without current material exploration work being performed or proposed to further advance the project. |
Our strategy is to build a diversified asset base, with a focus on gold and other precious metals, by being a preferred partner to operating companies in the global mining industry.
