We look forward to providing them with our continued support as they transition into mining operations, gold production and further exploration activities in Nigeria."

This transaction coupled with our demonstrated ability to successfully access the capital markets, combines with yet another important milestone for the Company - GRC's inclusion in the GDXJ which further raises the Company's profile among retail and institutional investors. Having meaningfully advanced our goals in a short timeframe, we are poised to take advantage of a strong balance sheet, liquidity position and capital markets presence to successfully compete with the larger intermediate companies in our sector and to further execute on our growth ambitions."

    Nevada increases taxes on gold and silver miners



    Nevada lawmakers have voted to increase the amount of taxes on gold and silver mines in the US state, to deliver funding to education.
    [Blockierte Grafik: https://www.mining-journal.com…nAssociation-1680x600.jpg]
    After "tumultuous negotiations" involving lawmakers, mining lobbyists and the state's largest teacher's union, the Nevada Senate and Assembly on Monday approved a proposal to impose an additional tax on mines which grossed more than US$20 million annually, the Associated Press reported.


    The bill will go to Governor Steve Sisolak for approval.



    Nevada Mining Association president Tyre Gray said the passage of AB495 was due to Nevadans working together to find solutions to complex problems.


    "As a result of months of discussion, we have found middle ground that protects the careers of 37,000 Nevadans and creates the Mining Education Fund, which will benefit our K-12 students for generations," he said.


    "Thank you @nevadamining for coming to the table with this historic funding for our kids!" Assemblywoman Jill Tolles tweeted a short while ago.


    It's understood the bill would preserve Nevada's net proceeds on minerals tax structure, which requires miners be taxed at less than 5% of net proceeds.


    It would add a 0.75% excise tax on gold and silvers miners who reported gross revenue of $20-$150 million, and 1.1% on mines which reported any higher, AP reported.


    The Clark County Education Association said a bipartisan relationship had made the passage of the bill possible.

    Zitat von Hiasd

    Hallo sorgenfrei
    würdest du das Angebot von Gold royalty annehmen und cash nehmen oder in deren shares tauschen?
    Der Aufschlag ist schon mal top...

    Hallo @Hiasd


    deine Frage ist im Moment nicht zufriedenstellend zu beantworten. Es gibt zur Zeit noch zu viele Unbekannte.
    Zum Ersten, wie werden sich die beiden Aktien in den nächsten 3 Monaten entwickeln? Wenn GROY abschmiert, dann ist Cash die bessere Variante. Wie werden sich die Ely Aktionäre entscheiden? Wollen sie eher Cash oder GROY Aktien? Oder kommt es zur pro-rata Zuteilung?
    Dann hängt es auch davon ab, ob du langfristig investiert bist oder eher kurzfristig. Wie sind die Erfolgsaussichten für Royalty- Unternehmen generell und die neue Gold Royalty im speziellen? Wie hoch ist dein Bestand an Ely Aktien und wie hoch bist du im Gewinn? Bei reiner Cash Zuteilung kommt das Finanzamt um die Ecke und will einen großen Batzen vom Gewinn; bei Aktienzuteilung sind sie außen vor.
    Es gibt noch mehr Aspekte, nur stehen im Moment zu viele Fragezeichen im Raum und es heißt erstmal beobachten.
    Wie ist deine Meinung?


    Viele Grüße, S.

    Gold Royalty and Ely Gold to Combine to Create a Leading Growth and Americas-focused Precious Metals Royalty Company
    https://www.newswire.ca/news-r…ty-company-892160729.html


    Gold Royalty Corp. ("GRC") (NYSE American: GROY) and Ely Gold Royalties Inc. ("Ely Gold") (TSXV: ELY) (OTCQX: ELYGF) are pleased to announce that they have entered into a definitive agreement (the "Agreement"), dated June 21, 2021, pursuant to which GRC will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Ely Gold (the "Ely Shares") by way of a statutory plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).
    Under the terms of the Agreement, which was negotiated at arms-length, each holder of Ely Shares will have the option to receive consideration per Ely Share of either: (i) C$1.46 in cash, or (ii) 0.2450 of a GRC common share ("GRC Share"), subject to pro-ration based on a maximum aggregate cash consideration of C$84 million and a maximum aggregate number of GRC Shares issued of approximately 41.5 million.
    The share exchange ratio implies a mix of C$0.42 in cash plus 0.1742 of a GRC Share per Ely Share on a fully diluted, in-the-money, and fully pro-rated basis (assuming the maximum aggregate cash consideration of C$84 million). Such consideration represents a premium of approximately 42%1 to Ely Gold shareholders based on the 30-day volume weighted average price of the GRC Shares and Ely Shares ending on June 18, 2021. At closing, assuming maximum aggregate cash consideration of C$84 million, existing GRC and Ely Gold shareholders will own approximately 55% and 45%, respectively, of GRC after giving effect to the Arrangement ("New GRC") on a fully diluted, in-the-money, and fully-prorated basis.


    Transaction Highlights

    • Creation of a Leading Growth and Americas-Focused Precious Metals Royalty Company – the transaction creates a new, sizable Americas-focused royalty company with a peer-leading resource endowment and a robust development pipeline, including nearly 100 royalties on various production, near-production, development and exploration assets.
    • Clear Path to Share Price Re-Rate – New GRC will have increased scale, diversification and growth, which may catalyze a significant share price re-rating benefiting all shareholders of New GRC.
    • Enhanced Balance Sheet & Access to Capital – New GRC will have approximately US$33 million in cash (pro forma as at June 18, 2021, assuming maximum aggregate cash consideration is elected and the exercise of all outstanding in-the-money securities), greater access to equity and debt capital markets and the critical mass to drive significant growth through acquisitions.
    • Enhanced Capital Markets Profile – New GRC will continue to be listed on the NYSE American and is expected to have increased trading liquidity and attract greater support from institutional investors.
    • Experienced Management Team – New GRC will have a highly credible and established management team with 275+ years of combined experience and a proven track record of creating value and sourcing accretive deals.
