EMX Assigns Arizona Exploration Permit to Arizona Sonoran Copper Company in Return for Cash and Royalty Payments

10.02.2022  |  Newsfile

Vancouver, February 10, 2022 - EMX Royalty Corp. (NYSE American: EMX) (TSXV: EMX) (FSE: 6E9) (the "Company" or "EMX") is pleased to announce the execution, by its wholly-owned subsidiary Bronco Creek Exploration Inc., of an Assignment and Assumption agreement as well as a Royalty Agreement (the "Agreements") for transfer of EMX's Arizona State Exploration Permit ("Permit") to Cactus 110 LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. ("ASCU"). EMX's Permit covers a portion of the Parks Salyer copper target, located approximately 1,500 meters southwest of the historic Sacaton open pit copper mine. Sacaton was previously operated by Asarco from 1972-1984 and is now being developed by ASCU and is known as the Cactus Project. The Agreements provide EMX with a one-time cash payment for the assignment of its rights under a State of Arizona Exploration Permit as well as a 1.5% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty interest, work commitments, annual advance royalty payments, and certain milestone payments. EMX is pleased to see the Permit advance with ASCU as it continues to advance activities at its Cactus project.

Commercial Terms Overview. (All dollar amounts in USD) Pursuant to the Agreements, ASCU will assume all rights under EMX's Arizona State Exploration Permit by making payments of $5,000 upon execution and $195,000 upon transfer and registration of the Permit to Cactus 110 LLC ("Registration Date"). EMX will retain a 1.5% NSR royalty interest on the Permit. ASCU may buy back one percent (1%) of the royalty for a payment of $500,000 to EMX. EMX will receive annual advance royalty ("AAR") payments of $50,000. The AAR payments cease upon commencement of commercial production and can be bought out at any time for a payment of $1,000,000. ASCU will make milestone payments of $1,500,000 upon declaration of a mineral resource containing 100 million pounds or more of copper and another payment of $1,500,000 upon further declaration of an additional 100 million pounds of copper contained in a resource. In the two years following the Registration Date, ASCU will make yearly exploration expenditures totaling $2,000,000 prior to the first anniversary and a cumulative total of $4,000,000 prior to the second anniversary.

Parks Salyer Permit Overview. EMX's Parks Salyer Permit is located approximately 5 kilometers northwest of the city of Casa Grande, and approximately 900 meters southwest of the historic Sacaton open pit copper mine in central Arizona. Sacaton is a porphyry copper-molybedenum deposit within the Laramide arc in the southwestern U.S. The Parks Salyer Permit is comprised of one State of Arizona Exploration Permit totaling 158 acres and covers a portion, roughly one third of the poorly drill defined Parks Salyer copper target area. The target lies beneath post-mineral gravels and contained within a fault-bounded horst block, and has potential for supergene enriched copper and hypogene sulfide mineralization. The target is supported by historic induced polarization geophysical surveys and drilling within and adjacent to the EMX royalty ground.

Comments on Adjacent Properties. The nearby Sacaton mine provide geologic context for EMX's Project, but this is not necessarily indicative that the Project hosts similar tonnages or grades of mineralization.
