Portfolio Update

Canadian Malartic Partnership (Agnico Eagle & Yamana JV) – Odyssey Underground Project (3.0% NSR) – Odyssey Project Advancing on Schedule

On April 27, 2022 Yamana Gold announced its financial and operational results for the first quarter of 2022 including an update on development advancements at the Odyssey Project. Following significant advancement of the project in 2021, the Odyssey team is focusing on two key milestones:

• Initiation of shaft sinking by the fourth quarter of 2022
• First gold production from Odyssey South in the first quarter of 2023

Yamana stated that “with a significant production platform, material cash flow generation and a prominent position within Quebec’s Abitibi District, Canadian Malartic will remain one of the Company’s cornerstone assets and one of the more prolific and generational mines in the world, particularly as the Odyssey mine is developed and comes into production. [Yamana] is taking a disciplined approach to the development of Odyssey with a conservative outlook for initial throughput and production. While the Odyssey mine is expected to initially process 20,000 tonnes per day and produce 500,000 to 600,000 ounces per year, based on the current mine plan, the Company recognizes that there is a large inventory of ounces that is not currently in the mine plan. Odyssey ores will be processed through a plant with an original design capacity of over 55,000 tonnes per day, processing closer to 60,000 tonnes per day, which far exceeds the initial expected throughput of Odyssey. The plant was designed for the larger open pit operations that will end later this decade, and while the Company will scale the plant to the level required for the underground operations, that plant capacity will always be there. The Company’s approach at its other mines has been to conduct extensive exploration which provides flexibility to maximize and increase throughput, and a similar approach will be taken with Odyssey, where delineation of extensions of underground mineralized zones and new zones of mineralization is already occurring… The Company firmly believes that in its 10-year outlook period, these efforts will lead to more mining areas that will allow the Company to take advantage of available plant capacity, resulting in ore processing that will exceed 20,000 tonnes per day, and sustainable production will then significantly exceed the initial production plan of 500,000 to 600,000 ounces per year.”

Nevada Gold Mines (Barrick & Newmont JV) – REN Project (1.5% NSR & 3.5% NPI) – Maiden Resource Expected to Grow in 2022

On May 4, 2022, Barrick Gold announced its results for the first quarter of 2022, which included a presentation by President and CEO, Mark Bristow who highlighted that REN, the northern underground extension of the Goldstrike Mine, was a project that is expected to grow in 2022, stating “Ren is another expanding opportunity. Last year we declared a maiden inferred resource of 1.2Moz and recent results have not only confirmed the model but have continued to expand the JB Zone resource to the south. Mineralization remains open at both JB and Corona Corridors. We have initiated various mining studies on the geotechnical, ventilation, dewatering parameters to optimally design this part of the [Goldstrike] mine.”

Barrick had previously noted they are targeting to bring REN into the Goldstrike mine plan in the short term. The 1.2Moz maiden inferred resource (5.2Mt at 7.3g/t Au) is expected grow further based on recent exploration results including the following highlights:

• MRC-21016: 36.6 m at 13.95g/t
• MRC-21014: 7.6 m at 17.49g/t
• MRC-21013: 10.7 m at 9.19g/t
• MRC-21015: 12.2 m at 9.63g/t and 14.0 m at 5.25g/t
• MRC-21012: 10.7 m at 10.22g/t

IAMGOLD – Côté Gold Project (0.75% NSR) – Project Remains on Schedule

On May 3, 2022 IAMGOLD reported its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022. IAMGOLD maintained its guidance of commencing production at Côté by the end of 2023 while disclosing a likely material increase in capital costs to complete construction of the project. Gold Royalty highlights that it is insulated from cost inflation as a royalty holder.

Despite potential capital cost increases, IAMGOLD has disclosed that Côté is still positioned to be a robust, Tier I, low-cost and long-life asset with the current mine plan outlining a 36,000 tpd open pit operation with estimated average annual production of 489,000 oz Au over the first 5 years of operation, and average annual production of 367,000 oz Au at an AISC of US$802/oz over the 18-year mine life.

IAMGOLD disclosed in its May 3, 2022 news release that the Côté Project is 49% complete with detailed engineering of the project being 96.6% complete. Mining activities during the quarter focused on overburden pre-stripping and bulk rock excavation in the pit while various facilities are currently under construction at site. Key permits have already been received with some minor permits expected to be obtained before commercial production.

For more information, refer to IAMGOLD’s press releases dated May 3, 2022, and IAMGOLD’s Technical Report on the Côté Gold Project titled “Technical Report on the Côté Gold Project, Ontario, Canada”, with an effective date of October 18, 2021, filed on www.sedar.com.

Wallbridge Mining – Fenelon Gold Project (2.0% NSR) – Multi-Million Ounce Deposit Begins Realizing its Significant Expansion Potential

Following the sizeable maiden resource estimate at Fenelon in 2021 of 2.1Moz of Indicated gold resources (36.0Mt at 1.84g/t Au) and a further 1.5Moz of Inferred gold resources (29.0Mt at 1.57g/t Au), on April 7, 2022, Wallbridge Mining announced a successful start to their 2022, 115,000 metre drill program. It disclosed that the program aims to expand the existing resource footprint laterally, in directions where the mineralization is open, while seeking to discover new satellite zones in proximity of the known deposit. On March 24, 2022 Wallbridge announce the company had completed approximately 1,800 metres of underground development over the course of 2021 and early 2022, providing access to Area 51 gold mineralization and establishing drilling platforms to be used in future resource drill programs.

On April 28, 2022, Wallbridge reported positive assay results from the ongoing drill program at Fenelon, including significant gold mineralization in the Ripley Zone, located one kilometre south of the Fenelon mineral resource footprint. The results demonstrate the potential for this zone to be included in an updated Fenelon mineral resource estimate expected in 2023. 2022 drilling has also discovered additional high-quality gold intercepts inside the 2021 mineral resource estimate and has expanded Area 51 Zone to the southwest.

On April 4, 2022, Wallbridge announced that it appointed Anthony Makuch, former CEO of Kirkland Lake Gold, as Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Makuch commented ““The management team at Wallbridge has assembled a land package of outstanding scale and quality in the Abitibi region of northwestern Quebec, anchored around its cornerstone projects at Fenelon and Martiniere. Both of these projects have significant growth potential, and there is additional prospectivity and potential for new discoveries.”

For more information, refer to Wallbridge’s press releases dated April 4, 2022; April 7, 2022; and April 29, 2022, filed on www.sedar.com and Wallbridge’s Technical Report on the Detour-Fenelon Gold Trend Property, with an effective date of December 23, 2021, filed on www.sedar.com.

Monarch Mining – Beaufor Mine (1.0% NSR & PTR) – Continued Exploration Success at Depth as Beaufor Prepares for Production

On March 17, 2022, Monarch Mining announced drilling results targeting the western strike extension of the Q Zone at its Beaufor Mine located 20 kilometres east of Val-d’Or, Quebec. The target area returned an impressive 6.8 m at 19.05 g/t Au, including 1.4 m at 12.56 g/t Au and 2.0 m at 54.68 g/t Au. These drill results are significant and exciting as they confirm the continuity of this ore zone for at least 150 m westward along strike and 150 m down-dip. Given the positive results, additional holes are now being drilled to allow the zones in question to be converted into reserves and included in a future mine plan. Monarch Mining is continuing its exploration definition drilling, with five underground drill rigs, and expects to restart operations by June 2022.

“The results of this underground drilling program are very encouraging and continue to show the strong potential of the Beaufor Mine at depth,” said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer of Monarch. “We are thrilled to be able to confirm the high-grade nature and significant width of the Q Zone towards the west. Additional drilling is definitely warranted to continue expanding this zone.”

Blackrock Silver – Tonopah West (3.0% NSR) – High Grade Maiden Resource Estimate

On May 2, 2022 Blackrock Silver reported the results of its Maiden Resource Estimate at its Tonopah West project, located in the Walker Lane trend of Western Nevada. The Maiden Resource Estimate outlined a 42.6 Moz silver-equivalent inferred resource (2,975 kt at 208.0 g/t Ag and 2.5 g.t Au).

Andrew Pollard, the Company’s President and CEO, stated, “delivery of this maiden resource represents a historic milestone, as one of the great American silver camps has been re-awakened, at a time where silver serves as much more than just currency, but also as a crucial element required for the emerging global electrified economy. By stope optimizing our initial mineral inventory we’ve engaged the gold standard of detail, rigor and scrutiny for a project of this stage, which further de-risks the deposit while also bolstering the credibility in the baseline credentials of the Tonopah West project.  Representing just eighteen months of drilling data, this maiden mineral resource estimate establishes Tonopah West as one of the highest-grade undeveloped silver deposits of size in the world, with substantial resource expansion potential remaining.”
