Gold Royalty Corp. Provides Royalty Portfolio Update

15.11.2021  |  CNW

VANCOUVER, Nov. 15, 2021 - Gold Royalty Corp. ("Gold Royalty" or the "Company") (NYSE American: GROY) is pleased to announce an update on the Company's producing, development, and exploration stage royalties and royalty generation activities. Recent property advancement updates from project operators have highlighted exploration success and significant project development milestones. Selected key highlights for the projects underlying Gold Royalty's assets include:

Producing and Development Stage Assets

Canadian Malartic (Agnico Eagle & Yamana JV) - Odyssey Project (3.0% Net Smelter Return Royalty "NSR") - Cornerstone Royalty Continues to Advance with Ramp & Shaft Construction

On October 27, 2021, Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. ("Agnico Eagle") announced that during the third quarter of 2021, underground development of the ramp at Odyssey continued. While underground development was slightly below plan, Agnico Eagle disclosed that approximately 1,118 linear metres of ramp development has been completed in 2021, which is ahead of schedule and at a lower development unit cost than anticipated. The ramp is designed to support mining the upper zones of the Odyssey Project and provide access for further underground exploration.

The concrete headframe pour started on September 29, 2021 and was completed in October 2021. The structural steel installation is expected to start in the fourth quarter of 2021. The contract for the shaft sinking is expected to be awarded in the fourth quarter of 2021 and begin in the fourth quarter of 2022. The headframe construction is on schedule and budget.

On November 2, 2021, Agnico Eagle announced an update on exploration drilling at the Odyssey project. This included recent underground drill results in the Odyssey Internal Zone and the Jupiter Zone which Agnico disclosed continue to demonstrate the potential to add mineral resources in close proximity to the Odyssey North and Odyssey South deposits and planned infrastructure that is currently under development. Gold Royalty holds a 3% NSR that covers a significant portion of the Odyssey Underground project. In addition, Agnico Eagle disclosed the results from the easternmost hole at the East Gouldie deposit, which is trending east, towards the Company's 1.5% NSR over the Midway project (1.0% can be purchased for US$1 million). The latest intercept returned 4.8m at 6.3 g/t gold at a depth of 1,989m and is located approximately 750-1,000 metres from the Midway royalty boundary.

For more information, refer to Agnico Eagle's press releases dated October 27, 2021, and November 2, 2021, each filed on www.sedar.com.

Wallbridge Mining - Fenelon Gold Project (2.0% NSR) - Multi-Million Ounce Deposit with Significant Expansion Potential

On November 9, 2021, Wallbridge Mining Company Ltd. ("Wallbridge") announced the results of the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") for the Fenelon Gold Project. The estimate combined potential surface and underground extraction scenarios and contained a total Indicated Resource of 2.13 million ounces: 36.02 Mt grading 1.84 g/t gold and a total Inferred Resource of 1.47 million ounces: 28.99 Mt grading 1.57 g/t gold.

Marz Kord, President & CEO of Wallbridge noted "Our maiden MRE demonstrates how Fenelon has rapidly evolved and continues to grow. We started with a small high-grade deposit and now, with the discovery of and subsequent drilling on the Tabasco/Cayenne and Area 51 zones, we have a multi-million-ounce deposit amenable to potential open pit and underground bulk mining… [Fenelon] remains open in multiple directions laterally and at depth indicating significant potential for expansion. Our next step is additional drilling to add to these resources prior to proceeding with an economic study and to identify new mineralization elsewhere on the Detour-Fenelon Gold Trend."

Gold Royalty holds a 2% NSR Royalty over the Fenelon Gold Project. For more information, refer to Wallbridge's press release dated November 9, 2021, filed on www.sedar.com.

Nevada Gold Mines (Barrick & Newmont JV) - REN Project (1.5% NSR & 3.5% NPI) - Barrick Highlights Potential Significant New Discovery - Potential for Near-Term Production

On November 4, 2021, Barrick Gold Corp. ("Barrick") announced their third quarter results including an update on operations, development, and exploration at the Carlin complex. The Carlin complex includes the Goldstrike mine, which has produced over 60 million ounces of gold, as well as the REN project, over which Gold Royalty holds a 1.5% NSR and a 3.5% NPI. The REN project is operated by Barrick and owned by Nevada Gold Mines, a Joint Venture between Barrick (61.5%) and Newmont (38.5%).

Barrick President and CEO, Mark Bristow, highlighted on Barrick's third quarter earnings call that underground resource drilling at REN has confirmed Barrick's model and the significant upside potential on the western side of the deposit next to infrastructure. With the latest results, Barrick expects to report a maiden resource at REN by the end of the year and that the project has potential to add to the Carlin complex life of mine profile in the short term.

Recent drill results identified a potentially significant +700m strike length discovery, 250m from infrastructure along JD1/Corona Zone. Drill result highlights include:

  • MRC-21001: 12.8m at 26.39g/t and 7.6m at 13.77g/t located 130m west of RU-24c: 45.7m at 32.54g/t

  • MRC-21010: 8.0m at 16.95g/t, 3.8m at 24.76g/t

Nevada Gold Mines recently consolidated the northern extension of the Carlin complex by acquiring 100% of the South Arturo and Rodeo Creek properties through an asset swap with i-80 Gold. The South Arturo and Rodeo Creek properties lie to the northwest of REN and further highlights Nevada Gold Mines' focus on the northern region of the Carlin trend. Further potential lies in the Banshee Zone, which is trending towards the southern edge of Gold Royalty's 1.5% NSR and 3.5% NPI coverage area.

Gold Royalty holds a 1.5% NSR Royalty and a 3.5% Net Profit Interest over the REN Project as well as a 2% NSR Royalty over the Rodeo Creek property.

First Majestic - Jerritt Canyon Mine (0.5% NSR and Per Ton Royalty) - Ramping up Production and Exploration Activities Under New Ownership

First Majestic Silver Corp. ("First Majestic") reported third quarter results from Jerritt Canyon which produced 26,145 ounces of gold, representing a 39% increase compared to the prior quarter. The mill processed a total of 230,415 tonnes of ore with an average gold grade and recovery of 4.19 g/t and 84%, respectively. This was the first full quarter of production at the mine since First Majestic acquired it in April 2021.

Major capital projects continue at Jerritt Canyon with First Majestic completing the structural fill for the tailings lift on TSF2 and installing approximately 25% of the new liner. In addition, the annual maintenance overhaul for the dual roasters was near completion at the end of September. As a result of this planned 14-day maintenance shutdown, approximately 30k tonnes of ore were added to stockpiles which First Majestic expects to be processed in the fourth quarter.

On the exploration front, a total of six drill rigs, consisting of three surface rigs and three underground rigs, were active at Jerritt Canyon at the end of the quarter. First Majestic's investment into exploration, the tailings facility, and a new management team supports the potential to fill the processing plant's 4,000 tpd capacity which is currently averaging 2,500 tpd, with First Majestic projecting production of approximately 200,000 ounces per year by 2024.

Gold Royalty holds a 0.5% NSR Royalty and a Sliding Scale Per Ton Royalty over the Jerritt Canyon mine. For more information, refer to First Majestic's press release dated October 12, 2021, its management's discussion and analysis for the third quarter of 2021, each filed on www.sedar.com and corporate presentation available on First Majestic's website: www.firstmajestic.com

Fortitude Gold - Isabella Pearl Mine (0.375% - 2.50% NSR) - Meaningful Infrastructure Expansion and Exploration Investments

Fortitude Gold Corp. ("Fortitude") reported third quarter production from the Isabella Pearl mine of 11,478 ounces of gold at a total cash cost of $624 per gold ounce (after by-product credits), making it one of the world's lowest cost gold producers in the quarter. Fortitude maintains their 2021 annual upper range guidance of 45,000 ounces of gold production for 2021.

Construction of an expansion to the heap leach pad at Isabella Pearl is currently underway with completion expected in early 2022. This pad expansion is expected accommodate of Fortitude's processing needs through 2024 and gives flexibility to expand the heap leach pad further if needed in the future. An added benefit to this pad expansion is the new mine plan project boundary was pushed to the west and now encompasses a large part of the Scarlet drill target which Gold Royalty holds a 2.5% NSR Royalty over. This provides added flexibility with exploration and possible pit development within the new project boundary.

Near mine exploration drill results (650 metres north-west of Isabella Pearl) released on August 24, 2021, by Fortitude from the Scarlet area returned substantial widths and gold grades that intercepted oxide mineralization with potential to be processed the existing heap leach pad and gold process plant Drill highlights include 19.81m at 1.57 g/t gold, 19.81m at 1.56 g/t gold, 16.76m at 2.23 g/t gold and 24.38m at 1.60 g/t gold. The drill program at Scarlet was designed to further define the lower oxide-sulfide boundary, as well as test the margins of the known mineralization. Scarlet remains a high priority target for additional delineation drilling.

Gold Royalty holds additional royalties on key exploration areas near the Isabella Pearl Mine, including a 2.5% NSR on County Line, 2.0 - 3.0% NSR at Mina Gold and 2.0% NSR on certain claims at Camp Douglas, potentially extending Gold Royalty's cash flows from Isabella Pearl well into the future. For more information, refer to Fortitude's press releases dated July 21, 2021, August 24, 2021 and November 2, 2021 and its Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2021, each available at www.sec.gov
