About Electric Royalties Ltd.
Electric Royalties is a royalty company established to take
advantage of the demand for a wide range of commodities (lithium,
vanadium, manganese, tin, graphite, cobalt, nickel & copper)
that will benefit from the drive toward electrification of a
variety of consumer products: cars, rechargeable batteries, large
scale energy storage, renewable energy generation and other
applications.
Electric vehicle sales, battery production capacity and
renewable energy generation are slated to increase significantly
over the next several years and with it, the demand for these
targeted commodities. This creates a unique opportunity to invest
in and acquire royalties over the mines and projects that will
supply the materials needed to feed the electric revolution.
Electric Royalties has a portfolio of 12 royalties with 4 more
royalties currently under acquisition. The Company plans to focus
predominantly on acquiring royalties on advanced stage and
operating projects to build a diversified portfolio located in
jurisdictions with low geopolitical risk.
