On January 10, 2022, the company revealed that it is set to buy an existing 0.135% net smelter return (NSR) royalty on Hudbay Minerals' Copper World and Rosemont copper projects in Arizona, USA, in a deal worth around US$5.5 million.
The company has struck a royalty purchase agreement with arm's length sellers over the transaction, which covers the Copper World asset, only discovered in 2020, and which already boasts an initial resource of 400 million tonnes. The deal also includes a right of first refusal (ROFR) on a further 0.540% NSR also owned by the vendors covering the same royalty area.
