Strategic Royalty Acquisition Sparks Investor Interest in This Small-Cap
On an overall risk-off day, there was a notable development in the mining sector that stood out. A key announcement related to a producing asset led to increased investor interest and ultimately sent shares of one mining royalty company higher.
Shares of Vox Royalty Corp. (TSX:VOXR) (NASDAQ:VOXR) were on the move higher as the company announced that they would be acquiring a cash-flowing 2.5% net smelter return (NSR) royalty on the producing Kanmantoo copper-gold mine in South Australia for $11.7 million, funded through a drawdown from its credit facility with Bank of Montreal. Operated by Hillgrove Resources and located 55km from Adelaide, the royalty steps down to 0.5% after 85,000 tonnes of copper are produced, with approximately 72,435 tonnes remaining as of April 30, 2025.
The Kanmantoo underground copper-gold mine is a fully operational site expected to produce 12,000 to 14,000 tonnes of copper in 2025, along with notable gold and silver byproducts. Previously mined as open pits from 2010 to 2020 with production of 137,000 tonnes of copper and over 55,000 oz of gold, underground operations began in May 2023 and reached commercial production by July 2024.
The mine benefits from A$200 million in established infrastructure, including a 3.6Mtpa processing plant currently running at ~40% capacity, and offers significant expansion potential.
With a total resource of 18.9Mt at an average grade of around 0.77% Cu and 0.14g/t Au, and a regional exploration target of 25–40Mt at up to 1.4% Cu, the site holds strong exploration upside.
A 60,000m drilling program underway in 2025 aims to update the resource estimate and potentially extend mine life. Development is also accelerating at the gold-rich Nugent deposit, with first ore expected in Q4 2025 and recent high-grade drill results supporting its potential.
Shares of VOXR are currently up 4.99% at $4.63 while U.S. listed shares (VOXR) are up 4.92% at $3.305 in mid-morning trading.

N.S. shakes up requirements for metal mines in bid to speed up approvals
Nova Scotia Environment Minister Tim Halman says he's acting on years of requests from the mining industry to change the regulatory requirements for some major projects. The changes are the latest move in the Houston government's plan to ramp up resource development. "We are embracing the fact that strong environmental protection, economic opportunity and regulatory clarity are not competing priorities. They must work together, and in Nova Scotia they will," Halman said at a news conference Friday. Halman's department is removing 15 requirements from the application for industrial approvals, which a project needs before it can start operating. The changes apply only to metal mining projects, while all other major projects will still have to meet the pre-existing requirements for industrial applications. 15 requirements pushed down the road The 15 requirements that were dropped include noise and air emissions monitoring plans, the submission of reclamation securities and signed authorization from landowners, among other items. The requirements are not being completely discarded but are being pushed further down the road. The requirements will be conditions of industrial approval, with deadlines coming at various stages of construction and operation of the mine. Officials from Halman's department called it a "phased" approach and said it will help speed things up. "When a company receives industrial approval, it may be many months or years before they begin construction," said Janet MacKinnon, executive director of sustainability and applied science. "So we wouldn't necessarily need that information until they were ready at that phase of their project to start building or start constructing or start operating." 'Quicker is better' Metal mining projects have to undergo a Class I environmental assessment, which takes 50 days, before moving on to industrial approval, which takes 60 days. Those timelines are set in legislation. The period in between receipt of environmental approval and the submission of an application for industrial approval is highly variable, said Paul Keats, and that's the area the province is aiming to address. Keats, director of the regional integration, compliance and operations unit at the Environment Department, said the months or years that can go by in between the two stages is dictated in part by the applicant's ability to meet all the requirements for industrial applications. He said a group of 10 staff has been assigned to work exclusively on industrial approvals for metal mining projects. "We are going to be here to help clients understand the requirements and help them get through a successful approval quicker," he said. He couldn't say exactly how much time he expects the new process to shave off. "Quicker is better," said Keats. MacKinnon said Mi'kmaw leaders were "made aware" of the changes to the industrial approval process and will continue to be consulted on a project-by-project basis.
