EMX has also been granted a 3% net smelter return (NSR) royalty on the Projects, as well as other consideration to EMX's benefit. The TSX Venture Exchange has approved the transfer of the Njuggträskliden and Mjövattnet exploration licenses from EMX to BEMC, subject to customary final filings.
BEMC is a recently formed private company focused on battery metal assets in Scandinavia, and is a subsidiary of Boreal Metals Corp. ("Boreal") (TSXV: BMX). In addition to EMX's direct ownership in BEMC, which includes an initial 5.9% share equity position resulting from the sale of the Guldgruvan cobalt project2, EMX also has an indirect ownership interest via its 17.9% interest in Boreal, which owns the remaining 90.1% of BEMC. These interests provide EMX and its shareholders immediate exposure to equity upside, while the royalty interests provide longer term exposure to mineral production revenues and the optionality of continued exploration success and discovery.
