ceo.ca

Gleason & Sons LLC today announced today it has acquired over 3 million common shares of Empress Royalty ("Empress" or "the Company") (TSXV:EMPR)(OTCQX:EMPYF) via a series of open market purchases in recent weeks and months, bolstering its holdings by 50%.

The recent purchases take Gleason & Sons' overall holding to 9.9 million shares, or approximately 8.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of Empress. The current market value of these shares is over C$3.75 million.

"We are pleased to continue increasing our long-term investment in Empress as its management team executes on its plan of creating new, producing gold and silver royalties and streams," said Stefan Gleason, managing director of Gleason & Sons.

"Empress is also now ‘locked and loaded' with a large credit facility that should enable the Company to substantially expand and diversify its royalty holdings in a mostly non-dilutive manner.

"Empress has identified a sub-sector that has scant access to royalty financing, and the Company has the expertise to underwrite these high-yield opportunities as well as the commitment to conduct the due diligence needed.

"Furthermore, unlike many of its peers, Empress has kept its overhead expenses low. Meanwhile, the Company's prior investments have created an expansion of payable ounces, revenues, and net income at the most opportune time, given the unfolding rally in gold prices.

"We believe the Company remains significantly undervalued and anticipate making additional share purchases over time," Gleason concluded.

China to invest in Canadian mining despite crackdown, envoy says

https://www.mining.com/web/china-to-invest-in-canadian-mining-despite-crackdown-envoy-says/

Ambassador Cong Peiwu said the Canadian government is “wrong” to prevent Chinese investors from buying majority stakes in domestic mining companies, like it did in 2022 when it forced three Chinese state-owned firms to divest from a trio of lithium companies.

“Politicizing normal commercial cooperation and using national security as a pretext for political interference is wrong. China has expressed firm opposition to this,” said Cong in an interview with Bloomberg News on Wednesday.

“We’ll continue to do business on the basis of mutual respect and mutual benefit.”

The comments follow remarks by Canada’s Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson last week warning miners that Chinese stakes will face strict national security reviews.

Chinese investment has continued to flow through Canada’s mining sector more than a year after Trudeau moved to tighten its foreign ownership rules. This year alone, Zijin Mining Group Co. initiated plans to buy a 15% stake in Canadian copper company Solaris Resources Inc., Ganfeng Lithium Group Co Ltd. moved to take a 15% stake in Vancouver-based Lithium Americas Argentina Corp. and Yintai Gold agreed to buy gold explorer Osino Resources Corp. for C$368 million ($271 million).

Canadian government officials, speaking on condition they weren’t named, have told Bloomberg they are tracking the issue closely and are considering whether further measures are needed beyond the current national security review regime.

While Wilkinson warned that recent transactions will be subject to rigorous reviews, Cong urged Canada’s government to “respect market laws, rather than shouting slogans against China and waging these wrong-placed accusations against China by over-stretching the concept of national security.”

China has found an ally in Canada’s cash-strapped junior mining firms, some of which have called on Ottawa to relax tougher rules on Chinese investment while the sector struggles to raise capital while commodity prices are low.

Cong said China’s investments provide much-needed funding to those firms at a time when metals have become an essential ingredient to the global transition away from fossil fuels. Minerals including lithium, copper, nickel and cobalt are key components of electric vehicles, solar panels and wind turbines, though countries like Canada and the US have pushed to build a domestic supply chain to reduce China’s dominance in the global mining industry.

Thacker Pass Update: Conditional Commitment for $2.3 billion DoE Loan

https://polaris.brighterir.com/public/trident/news/rns/story/x81yjjw

Trident Royalties Plc (AIM: TRR, OTC: TDTRF), the diversified mining royalty company, is pleased to note recent positive announcements by Lithium Americas Corporation ("LAC", NYSE: LAC) in relation to its Thacker Pass Lithium Project ("Thacker Pass"). Trident holds a net 1.05% gross revenue royalty over Thacker Pass (after expected exercise of a partial royalty buyback, which would see $13.2 million to Trident).

Adam Davidson, Chief Executive Officer of Trident commented:

"Thacker Pass is a high priority asset with considerable strategic value for the United States, and the commitment of a $2.26 billion loan from the U.S. Department of Energy underscores the level of support to bring this asset to production. The DoE loan is expected to coincide with the release of the second tranche of funding from General Motors of $330 million, such that the capex for Phase 1 production is largely secured.

"We anticipate first production from Thacker Pass within three years and the associated royalty payments thereafter. As previously disclosed, we expect Thacker Pass royalty receipts to have a dramatic impact on our revenue, with $10.5 million generated per year at Phase 1 production and a $25,000 lithium price, increasing to $21 million per year at Phase 2."
