October 16, 2024 – Vancouver, BC: Elemental Altus Royalties Corp. (“Elemental Altus” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: ELE, OTCQX: ELEMF) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding agreement (the “Agreement”) to acquire an additional 50% ownership of 24 existing royalties (the “Portfolio”) from AlphaStream Limited (“AlphaStream”) for a consideration of US$28 million in equity (the “Acquisition”). The Portfolio includes Elemental Altus’ existing producing gold royalties on the Bonikro Gold Project (“Bonikro“), the Ballarat Mine (“Ballarat“), South Kalgoorlie Operations (“SKO”) and 21 additional royalties located in Australia. Upon completion of the Acquisition, Elemental Altus, through a 100% interest in the Portfolio, will hold an effective 4.5% NSR royalty on Bonikro, a 2.5% NSR royalty on Ballarat, and a A$10/oz royalty and A$1 million Discovery Bonus on SKO.

Acquisition Highlights:

• Producing Gold Royalties: immediate cash flow with approximately US$6 million additional revenue forecast in 2025 by consolidating the Portfolio
• Margin Expansion: expected pro forma 2025 revenue increase of ~25% to US$31 million¹, driving a material step up in free cash flow with no increase in management costs
• Substantial Leverage to Gold: the Portfolio provides immediate exposure to gold prices that are significantly above consensus forecasts
• Exploration Optionality: upside already demonstrated across the Portfolio with operators in Australia including Northern Star Resources Limited, Evolution Mining Limited, Hancock Prospecting Pty Ltd, Mineral Resources Limited and Zijin Mining Group Company Limited
• Increased Financial Strength: further improves financial flexibility with regards to acquisitions, deleveraging profile and dividends
• Strategic Shareholder: AlphaStream join the Register as another cornerstone shareholder moving forward with the right to nominate a director to the Board

Frederick Bell, CEO of Elemental Altus, commented:

“Building on top of our organic growth in 2025 and 2026, this acquisition provides a step change in revenue with accompanying margin expansion and introduces a new strategic shareholder in AlphaStream. The assets are well known to Elemental Altus through our existing joint ownership over the last 3 years and the producing assets have been substantially de-risked over that time. We also continue to see material exploration upside across the portfolio, most notably at the Hampton-Boulder-Jubilee and Hercules deposits at Northern Star’s SKO in Western Australia.

By securing further interests on the Bonikro, SKO and Ballarat operations, we expect to add to our near and long-term revenue profiles and significantly expand margins; providing increased free cash flow generation and scale, adding high quality exploration optionality and further enhancing the Company’s precious metals focus.

We believe the Portfolio offers material upside in the current gold price environment alongside asset outperformance. In particular, SKO has averaged ~US$1 million per annum on a 100% basis over the last two years when including Discovery Bonus payments, and Ballarat has a committed new owner focused on reinvesting into operations to build a long-term successful mine. At Bonikro, royalty production is at record levels while the gold price is at all-time highs, and further upside from embedded optionality in 21 Australian royalties offers potential outsized returns, de-risked by the quality of operators on many assets all located in a top tier mining jurisdiction. Of note, at the Zuleika South & Rose Hill royalty, which covers the Hercules discovery, Northern Star are undertaking definition drilling which is expected to feed into internal mine planning studies to determine how the project may be developed. At Mt Monger, operations are being ramped up following the merger of Red 5 and Silver Lake; and a pre-start study completed at the Ashburton Project includes potential for a small deposit at Merlin to be incorporated into near-term mine scheduling. Evolution Mining’s Kintore Project and associated exploration potential has been flagged as an advanced project sitting in the Kunanalling Shear Zone which already hosts several operating mines, while the Mulgarrie royalty operated by Zijin has been mined intermittently over the course of the last 2 years as a satellite deposit.”

Prashant Francis, the co-CEO of AlphaStream (who is expected to be nominated to the Board subject to TSXV approval), commented:

“AlphaStream looks forward to working with Elemental Altus in its shared vision of building a pre-eminent royalty and streaming company. Having successfully partnered with the company on the Portfolio, we are excited about the prospects for the future.”

Key Royalties – with Elemental Altus’ increased royalty rate, post-transaction

Bonikro – 4.5% NSR

The Bonikro open-pit gold mine is located in Côte d’Ivoire, 230km north-west of Abidjan and has produced over 1.4Moz of gold at an average grade of 1.63g/t of gold since production commenced in 2008. The Bonikro Project is comprised of the Bonikro open pit and a 2.5Mtpa processing plant, as well as the satellite Hire and Dougbafla deposits². The project is operated by Allied Gold Corp (TSX: AAUC) and has Reserves of 571,000 ounces of gold as of December 31, 2023³.

Elemental Altus’ royalty covers the entirety of the PB5 pushback, the next in a series of successive pushbacks of the open pit originally designed by previous operator Newcrest. Elemental Altus’ royalty operates on a sliding scale, with a maximum royalty rate of 4.5% NSR when the average gold price during the period is above US$1,450 per ounce. The PB5 project has successfully ramped up since commencement in 2023, with Allied guiding production of 95,000-105,000 ounces for 2024 across the entire project³. The royalty is capped at 560,000 ounces of gold production (~444,000 ounces of the cap currently remain), and it is understood that the production cap will be reached during the current mine plan.

Ballarat – 2.5% NSR

Ballarat is an underground gold mine located 100km northwest of Melbourne in the major gold-producing city of Ballarat, Victoria, Australia, in the south-western part of the Lachlan Fold Belt within the Palaeozoic sedimentary rocks of the Bendigo-Ballarat subdivision. The mine hosts significant historical workings and has been in modern operation since 2006, producing 35,000-40,000 ounces per annum. Gold mineralisation occurs within discontinuous, irregular quartz veins associated with Lower Ordovician sandstones, siltstones and mudstones that are weakly metamorphosed and folded about north-south trending axes.

Approximately 70% of the recovered gold is ‘free’ and separated by gravity methods before being directly smelted into bars, with the other 30% present as sulphide-bound gold which is extracted by cyanide leach⁴; and a mill upgrade, to improve recoveries, is being contemplated. Ballarat is operated by private company Victory Minerals and is mined by a combination of conventional drive development and mechanised open stoping. The royalty area covers 32km² and is capped at A$50 million (~A$29 million of the cap currently remains).

SKO – A$10/oz and A$1 million Discovery Bonus

The South Kalgoorlie Operations are located in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia within the prolific Eastern Goldfields Superterrane. Gold mineralisation is associated with greenstones with volcano-sedimentary rocks in multiple orogenic lode gold style deposits, controlled by generally NNW-trending shear zones; and minor paleoplacer deposits. The main mineralised orebody Hampton-Boulder-Jubilee (“HBJ”) remains open down plunge with limited effective deep drilling undertaken to date on the narrow, subvertical higher grade lodes.

Elemental Altus’ royalty covers 176km², including the long-term producing underground HBJ gold mine complex, owned and operated by Northern Star Resources (ASX: NST) since 2018. The mine is a primary source of ore feed of Northern Star’s regional Kalgoorlie Operations, providing ore to both the Kanowna Belle and KCGM mills⁵. The royalty agreement includes a Discovery Bonus of A$1 million payable for each new ore body on the royalty tenement package with production and / or Reserves greater than 250,000 ounces of gold. To date, Northern Star has paid two Discovery Bonuses from the SKO operations, and recent exploration drilling has indicated the potential for subsequent bonuses to be paid.
