About Nations Royalty Corp.

The company’s vision is to unite first nations and indigenous groups across Canada, welcoming external investors to join the company as shareholders. Together, they will combine royalties, income and commodity streams, and annual benefit payment entitlements from resource projects, tapping into the growth, diversification and value potential typical of publicly traded royalty companies. As a leader in the spirit of economic reconciliation, Nations Royalty’s mission includes capacity building of indigenous people in public companies and capital markets.

Nations Royalty’s foundation begins with the right to receive five annual payment entitlements in place in respect of the following properties in Canada:

  • The high-grade, large, underground Brucejack gold mine operated by Pretium Resources Inc., a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Newmont Corp.;
  • The KSM copper-gold-silver-molybdenum deposit, currently in development by Seabridge Gold Inc.;
  • The Premier gold project, currently being commissioned by Ascot Resources Ltd., with first gold pour completed in April, 2024;
  • The Red Mountain gold deposit, owned by Ascot Resources;
