“World-class project in the making – The cornerstone Dixie Project royalty is underpinnedby Great Bear Resources’ LP Fault gold discovery, which appears to represent a significant(very) large-scale (potentially open pitable) opportunity. We would argue that said recentlyrecognized ‘Hemlo’ potential stands to unlock shareholder value—upside echoed by a morethan fully funded ~400 hole drill program designed to delineate the LP Fault over ~4-5 km ofstrike length this year, noting the system has already been interpreted to extend over ~18 kmof strike length on Great Bear Resources’ ground.” – Cormark Securities (May 26, 2021)

“A Royalty That Provides Exposure to the Excellent Dixie Project – We believe that theDixie project is one of the best gold discoveries in many years and has already shown itself,through GBR’s aggressive exploration program, to have the potential to host a multi-millionounce gold resource (we currently estimate the mineralized inventory to be approximately 9.6million ounces of gold). GBR plans to release a maiden 43-101 compliant resource in Q4/21to Q1/22 – we think this will be a major milestone for the company and, therefore, for GBRRas well.” – Mackie Research Capital (July 27, 2021)

"diversification doesn't make sense. It's crazy to put money into your 20th choice rather than your first choice.."

Royalty peers often market their offering of a diversified portfolio of assets across multiple jurisdictions,however their key assets are diluted away in large portfolios, with exposure to less favourable jurisdictions
