Sale Consolidates Large Copper/Gold Porphyry District in White Pine County, Nevada

Vancouver, December 10, 2019 - Ely Gold Royalties Inc. (TSXV: ELY) (OTCQB: ELYGF) ("Ely Gold") or the ("Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Nevada Select Royalty, Inc ("Nevada Select") are pleased to announce that they have signed a definitive option agreement (the "Agreement") for the sale of 100% of its Butte Valley Project to Six Mile Mining Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Quaterra Mining Inc (TSXV: QTA) (OTCQB: QTRRF) (collectively "Quaterra").

The Butte Valley Project

Nevada Select's Butte Valley Project consists of seventy-eight (78) unpatented mining claims (the "Nevada Select Claims") located in White Pine County, Nevada. Butte Valley was discovered in the 1960s through the drilling of a large magnetic anomaly. The sulfide system, which covers an area of at least two square miles, is totally blind and is buried below approximately 2,000 feet of gravels and a gravity slide block. Historically, seventeen widely spaced holes have been drilled in the project, with the last drilled in 1980. Multiple property targets exist, which are prospective for both high-grade skarn and chalcocite-enriched porphyry copper-gold mineralization. Quaterra has also announced the signing of a lease agreement with a Nevada prospecting syndicate, giving it the option to purchase 600 additional unpatented claims to consolidate the Butte Valley District.

The Agreement

Under the terms of the Agreement to earn 100% of the Nevada Select Claims, Quaterra will pay Nevada Select a total of $250,000 in cash payments made as follows (all amounts in US dollars):

  • $15,000 paid on the Effective Date;
  • $35,000 on the first anniversary of the Effective Date;
  • $50,000 on the second anniversary of the Effective Date;
  • $50,000 on the third anniversary of the Effective Date; and
  • $50,000 on the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date.

On the Effective Date Quaterra will also reimburse Nevada Select $24,711 for the 2020 claim fees, taxes and staking costs. Nevada Select will retain a two percent (2%) net smelter returns royalty on the Nevada Select Claims. Quaterra can purchase one percent (1%) of the royalty for US$10,000,000 at any time within ten (10) years of the Effective Date.

Trey Wasser, President and CEO commented, "This transaction supports our business model of staking key claims in order to consolidate under-explored districts in Nevada while generating royalty interests. Quaterra's expertise in copper porphyry exploration and their current land position makes them an ideal partner for our Butte Valley Project."
