ALTIUS REPORTS Q2 2023 EXPECTED ATTRIBUTABLE ROYALTY REVENUE(1) OF $18.7 MILLION
Altius Minerals Corp. expects to have Q2 2023 attributable royalty revenue of approximately $18.7-million.
Potash
portfolio revenue during the quarter was $6.1-million mainly reflecting lower average realized prices relative to the prior quarter and the prior-year comparable quarterly period.
Base and battery metal
(primarily copper) revenue was $4.8-million for the quarter. Differences relative to the prior-year comparable quarterly period reflect the scheduled closure of the 777 mine in Q2 of 2022 and lower realized pricing at Chapada.
Iron ore
revenue in the form of dividends from Labrador Iron Ore Royalty Corp., which serves as a pass-through vehicle for royalty income and equity dividends related to the operations of Iron Ore Company of Canada (IOC), was $2.4-million.
Thermal (electrical) coal
revenue during the quarter was $2.6-million. The prior-year comparable quarter included approximately $1.6-million by way of a retroactive adjustment to royalties received during 2021 and Q1 2022.
Renewable energy
royalty revenue of $1.3-million relates to consolidation of the corporation's 58-per-cent interest in Altius Renewable Royalties Corp. and reflects continued ramp-up of portfolio production, which was partly offset by lower average realized prices.

About Altius
Minerals Corp.
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 sustainability-related global growth trends, including the electricity generation transition from fossil fuel to renewables, transportation electrification, reduced emissions from steelmaking and increasing agricultural yield requirements. These macro trends each hold the potential to cause increased demand for many of Altius's commodity exposures, including copper, renewable-based electricity, several key battery metals (lithium, nickel and cobalt), clean iron ore and potash. In addition, Altius runs a successful project generation business that originates mineral projects for sale to developers in exchange for equity positions and royalties. .
