Gold Royalty Completes Acquisition of Existing Royalty on Producing Copper-Silver Cozamin Mine
Pursuant to the transaction, Gold Royalty indirectly acquired the Royalty for US$7.5 million in cash consideration.
Cozamin is a producing mine operated by Capstone Copper Corp. The Royalty applies to two concessions (Calicanto and Vicochea). Gold Royalty received the option to acquire a 1% NSR royalty on five additional concessions if such royalties are granted to Endeavour in the future. Pursuant to such option, Gold Royalty may acquire such additional royalties, subject to existing rights of first refusal, in exchange for US$300,000, in the case of the Mise concession and US$50,000 in the case of each other concession. Such option consideration may be satisfied, at the option of Gold Royalty, through the issuance of common shares of the Company.
As announced on July 31, 2023, the Company’s board of directors suspended dividends under its dividend program in connection with the completion of the Cozamin royalty acquisition in order to focus capital on executing its strategic priority of growing cash flow and net asset value per share through accretive acquisitions.
