Scottie Resources Agrees C$8.1 Million Financing From Franco-Nevada
By Robb M. Stewart
Scottie Resources has agreed to sell a production royalty to Franco-Nevada as part of a financing arrangement with the larger mining company.
Scottie, which owns mineral claims British Columbia's resource-rich Golden Triangle area,
said Tuesday it will sell a 2% gross production royalty for 8.1 million Canadian dollars ($6 million), which will apply to all minerals produced on claims in the Stewart Mining Camp.
Franco-Nevada also agreed to buy shares of Scottie, covering the entire back end of a total C$1.5 million private placement at a price to flow-through subscribers of C$0.275 a share.
The company said that alongside the funding from Franco-Nevada and proceeds of around C$3.6 million raised at its January private placement it was in a strong financial position for future operations.
"This transaction validates the progress we've made and recognizes the value opportunity present at Scottie," Chief Executive Brad Rourke said.
