Stock of the week: Osisko Gold Royalties
Osisko Gold Royalties with another top-class deal!
Osisko Gold Royalties recently announced one of the largest deals of its history.
A few days ago, the company announced that it has entered into a binding term sheet to provide Falco Resources Ltd. with a senior secured silver stream credit facility with reference to up to 100% of the future silver produced from the Horne 5 property located in Rouyn-Noranda, Québec from Falco. As part of the Silver Stream, Osisko will make staged upfront cash deposits to Falco of up to CA$180 million and will make ongoing payments equal to 20% of the spot price of silver, to a maximum of US$6 per ounce.
Horne 5 is a development-stage project located in Rouyn-Noranda, Québec. Horne 5 is located in the former Horne mine that was operated by Noranda from 1927 to 1976 and produced 11.6 million ounces of gold and 2.5 billion pounds of copper. Falco completed a feasibility study for the Project in 2017 that demonstrated positive economics and estimated annual payable gold production of 219,000 ounces at US$399 per gold ounce over a 15-year life of mine. Falco is currently in the permitting process and working on obtaining all third-party approvals to advance project construction. Osisko is the largest shareholder of Falco and currently owns 12.7% of its issued and outstanding common shares of Falco.
This recent announcement marks the beginning of a new chapter in the history of Osisko. Although this deal seems to be a little bit risky, the Horne 5 Silver Stream takes the company’s accelerator model from concept to reality and validates the effort its team has put forward in supporting the advancement of the Project through the development and the feasibility study.

Market Watch:
Silver: all going according to plan!
Silver is going according to plan. Although the spot price saw some decrease – like the big brother gold – the important support at US$16.20 was defended. Now, from a chart technical perspective, there is another significant chance for a further tapering of the closing triangle of the 3-year-chart and also for a heavy breakout into the range of US$18.50 and furthermore to the 3-year-high at US$20.50. From mid-August on, the strongest seasonal phase for silver will begin, which fits perfectly to the chart technical triangle formation.
It is a little bit similar with the gold price. It could be pressed till US$1.250 to stay into the upward trend channel but shouldn’t stay below on a weekly end basis. Speaking of weekly end basis: the weakly trading Friday, the 15 th June 2018 has been used to take heavy pressure on the gold price. Within only 4 hours, 260,000 gold futures have been sold into the market – worth 34 billion US$! An abstruse number, however, the gold price fell only 20 US$.
On the other side there are some rumors, that there is a big buy order of around 5tions from China for a gold price below US$1,300. This plus new fears about the next Euro crisis, and a gaining inflation in the US give the opportunity for the start of a new gold rally from July on.
Gold – Does It Start Now?

First Cobalt extends mineralized zone at Iron Creek
First Cobalt recently announced that drill results from the Iron Creek Project in Idaho, USA continue to extend cobalt mineralization in the Waite Zone by an additional 50 meters to the west as well as to surface. The Waite Zone lies south and parallel to the historic No Name Zone. Mineralization has also been intercepted beyond the footwall of the Waite Zone, providing new targets for future drilling.
High grade intercepts occur within longer intervals of mineralization including 0.52% Co and 1.10% Cu over 4.6 meters within 37.8 meters grading 0.12% Co and 0.41% Cu in the Waite Zone. Several mineralized intercepts were found in the footwall of the Waite Zone, including 0.33% Co over 10.2 meters, reflecting new mineralization that will be tested in follow up drilling
A metallurgical study commenced to assess concentration methods and resulting recoveries for cobalt and copper.
First Cobalt puts the pedal to the metal! Right after the acquisition of US Cobalt, the company extends the mineralized zone of the old US Cobalt project. Hopefully more to come!
