Business Wirea day ago
ST. JOHN'S, Newfoundland and Labrador--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Altius Minerals Corporation (TSX: ALS) (OTCQX: ATUSF) Altius Minerals Corporation ('Altius') has received a final award decision by an arbitration tribunal relating to the extents of its royalty interests within the emerging Silicon gold district (Arthur Gold district) in Nevada.
The tribunal has determined that the lands that are subject to the Altius 0.5% NSR royalty under the royalty agreement between the parties dated Feb. 20, 2015 include the entirety of those encompassed within the 26.8 km 2 base area of interest (base AOI) described in the royalty agreement and also additional areas around the base AOI that total approximately 168.8 km 2, for a combined royalty area within the district that totals approximately 195.6 km 2.
The final award meets the royalty area requirement set out in the recent sales agreement between Altius and Franco-Nevada Corporation for a 1.0% NSR royalty that is to cause an additional US$25 million contingent payment to Altius, following the expiry of any relevant appeal or challenge periods.

About Altius
Altius's strategy is to create per share growth through a diversified portfolio of royalty assets that relate to long life, high margin operations. This strategy further provides shareholders with exposures that are well aligned with global growth trends including increasing electricity based market share within energy usage, global infrastructure build and refurbishment growth, increased EAF based steelmaking, steadily increasing agricultural fertilizer requirements and the enhanced appetite for financial asset diversification through precious metals ownership. These macro-trends each hold the potential to cause higher demand for many of Altius's commodity exposures including potash, high purity iron ore, renewable energy, base metals, and gold. In addition, Altius runs a successful Project Generation business that originates mineral projects for sale to developers in exchange for royalties and that has a demonstrated track record of driving outsized direct returns from its overall royalty investment portfolio. Altius has 46,315,304 common shares issued and outstanding that are listed on Canada's Toronto Stock Exchange. It is a member of both the S&P/TSX Small Cap and S&P/TSX Global Mining Indices and the S&P/TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats Index.

US oil and gas rig count holds steady this week, Baker Hughes says

(Reuters) -U.S. energy firms this week held the number of oil and natural gas rigs operating steady, energy services firm Baker Hughes said in its closely followed report on Friday. The oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, remained at 539 in the week to August 15. Baker Hughes said oil rigs rose by one to 412 this week, while gas rigs fell by one to 122. The oil and gas rig count declined by about 5% in 2024 and 20% in 2023 as lower U.S. oil and gas prices over the past couple of years prompted energy firms to focus more on boosting shareholder returns and paying down debt rather than increasing output. The independent exploration and production (E&P) companies tracked by U.S. financial services firm TD Cowen said they planned to cut capital expenditures by around 4% in 2025 from levels seen in 2024. That compares with roughly flat year-over-year spending in 2024, increases of 27% in 2023, 40% in 2022, and 4% in 2021. Even though analysts forecast U.S. spot crude prices would decline for a third year in a row in 2025, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projected crude output would rise from a record 13.2 million barrels per day (bpd) in 2024 to around 13.4 million bpd in 2025. On the gas side, the EIA projected a 65% increase in spot gas prices in 2025 would prompt producers to boost drilling activity this year after a 14% price drop in 2024 caused several energy firms to cut output for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic reduced demand for the fuel in 2020. [NGAS/POLL] The EIA projected gas output would rise to 106.4 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) in 2025, up from 103.2 bcfd in 2024 and a record 103.6 bcfd in 2023. Sign in to access your portfolio

Trump aides create loyalty list ranking corporations by support

(Bloomberg) — President Donald Trump's aides have created a scorecard ranking hundreds of companies based on their efforts to support his signature tax cut law, a White House official said Friday. The US-Canadian Road Safety Gap Is Getting Wider Festivals and Parades Are Canceled Amid US Immigration Anxiety To Head Off Severe Storm Surges, Nova Scotia Invests in 'Living Shorelines' Five Years After Black Lives Matter, Brussels' Colonial Statues Remain For Homeless Cyclists, Bikes Bring an Escape From the Streets The list ranks 553 different businesses as either 'strong, moderate, or low' partners on the megabill, which extended and expanded tax cuts from the president's first term and provided billions of dollars in additional funding for immigration enforcement. It's not clear how the scores will affect the way the federal government deals with the firms, but the official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, suggested that companies' rankings could change based on present and future support for presidential initiatives. Trump has made unusual, high-profile interventions in the business world since returning to the White House in ways that critics have said run counter to the Republican Party's traditional commitment to free-market capitalism. The president has defended himself as a pro-business leader. Recently, the Trump administration has considered taking an equity stake in Intel Corp. (INTC) and got Nvidia Corp (NVDA). and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) to pay the government 15% of revenues from chip sales to China. The creation of the list comes as Trump has struggled to sell the public on the benefits of the legislation. Just 32% of Americans say they approve of the tax and spending bill versus 46% who disapprove, according to a Pew Research poll released this week. The president's job approval sat at just 38% in the same survey. But the administration is ratcheting up efforts to sell the benefits of the legislation, with Trump on Thursday holding an event at the White House to tout a new $6,000 deduction for seniors on Social Security benefits. Cabinet officials have scheduled events across the country in support of the legislation. Companies favorably ranked by the White House included DoorDash Inc. (DASH) and Uber Technologies Inc. (UBER), according to Axios, which first reported the existence of the list. The rideshare companies have touted a provision that allows some taxpayers to deduct as much as $25,000 in reported cash tips from their income taxes. Airlines including United Airlines Inc. (UAL) and Delta Air Lines Inc. (DAL) were credited for their efforts supporting the bill's $12.5 billion allocation for new air traffic control infrastructure.
