Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp. (with its subsidiaries,
“Triple Flag” or the “Company”) (TSX:TFPM,
TSX:TFPM.U) is pleased to announce the acquisition for US$4.9
million of three pre-existing 2% net smelter returns (“NSR”)
royalties on each of the Aster 2, Aster 3, and Helada properties
from a private third party that are proximal to Gold Fields
Limited’s (“Gold Fields”) Salares Norte project in Chile.
These properties cover prospective exploration ground that Gold
Fields has been exploring.
The Salares Norte project is currently under construction with
anticipated first production in 2023. Once operational, the open
pit mine is forecast to have an average annual production of
450,000 gold equivalent ounces per year for the first seven years,
decreasing to around 355,000 gold equivalent ounces for the
following three years.
The royalties include buy-down provisions that would reduce the
amount of each NSR royalty from 2% to 1%. The amount to be received
by Triple Flag if the buy-down provisions are exercised would be
US$2 million for the Aster 2 royalty and US$4 million for each of
the Aster 3 and Helada royalties.

Forward-Looking Information
This news release contains “forward-looking information” within
the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking
information may be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as “plans”, “targets”, “expects”, “is expected”,
“budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “outlook”, “forecasts”,
“projection”, “prospects”, “strategy”, “intends”, “anticipates”,
“believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or terminology
which states that certain actions, events or results “may”,
“could”, “would”, “might”, “will”, “will be taken”, “occur” or “be
achieved”. Our assessments of, and expectations for, future periods
(including, but not limited to, our 2021 guidance and long-term
production outlook for GEOs, our dividend policy and our
acquisition strategy), are considered forward-looking information.
In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, intentions,
projections or other characterizations of future events or
circumstances contain forward-looking information. Statements
containing forward-looking information are not historical facts but
instead represent management’s expectations, estimates and
projections regarding possible future events or circumstances.
The forward-looking information included in this news release is
based on our opinions, estimates and assumptions in light of our
experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions
and expected future developments, as well as other factors that we
currently believe are appropriate and reasonable in the
circumstances. The forward-looking information contained in this
news release is also based upon the ongoing operation of the
properties in which we hold a stream or royalty interest by the
owners or operators of such properties in a manner consistent with
past practice; the accuracy of public statements and disclosures
made by the owners or operators of such underlying properties; and
the accuracy of publicly disclosed expectations for the development
of underlying properties that are not yet in production. These
assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following:
assumptions in respect of current and future market conditions and
the execution of our business strategies, that operations, or
ramp-up where applicable, at properties in which we hold a royalty,
stream or other interest, continue without further interruption
through the period, and the absence of any other factors that could
cause actions, events or results to differ from those anticipated,
estimated, intended or implied. Despite a careful process to
prepare and review the forward-looking information, there can be no
assurance that the underlying opinions, estimates and assumptions
will prove to be correct. Forward-looking information is also
subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance
or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or
implied by such forward-looking information. Such risks,
uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to,
those set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in our May 19,
2021 prospectus. For clarity, Mineral Resources that are not
Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability and
Inferred Resources are considered too geologically speculative for
the application of economic considerations.
Although we have attempted to identify important risk factors
that could cause actual results or future events to differ
materially from those contained in forward-looking information,
there may be other risk factors not presently known to us or that
we presently believe are not material that could also cause actual
results or future events to differ materially from those expressed
in such forward-looking information. There can be no assurance that
such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and
future events could differ materially from those anticipated in
such information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue
reliance on forward-looking information, which speaks only as of
the date made. The forward-looking information contained in this
news release represents our expectations as of the date of this
news release and is subject to change after such date. We disclaim
any intention or obligation or undertaking to update or revise any
forward-looking information whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable
securities laws. All of the forward-looking information contained
in this news release is expressly qualified by the foregoing
cautionary statements.
Technical and Third-Party Information
Triple Flag does not own, develop or mine the underlying
properties on which it holds stream or royalty interests. As a
royalty or stream holder, Triple Flag has limited, if any, access
to properties included in its asset portfolio. As a result, Triple
Flag is dependent on the owners or operators of the properties and
their qualified persons to provide information to Triple Flag or on
publicly available information to prepare disclosure pertaining to
properties and operations on the properties on which Triple Flag
holds stream, royalty or other similar interests. Triple Flag
generally has limited or no ability to independently verify such
information. Although Triple Flag does not believe that such
information is inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect,
there can be no assurance that such third-party information is
complete or accurate.
