The Granite Creek (Pinson) project is located near Winnemucca, Nevada, at the intersection of the Getchell Gold Belt and the Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend. Franco-Nevada holds a 1-2% NSR on approximately 20 sections within the Getchell trend. This royalty includes both a section and a smaller royalty on another half section associated within Granite Creek’s operating area, formally known as Pinson. Granite Creek (Pinson) is south of Nevada Gold Mines’ Turquoise Ridge mine and 13 km from its Twin Creeks mine complex. The historic Pinson mine produced 985,000 ounces of gold from 1980 through 1999 by open-pit mining. Pinson was placed on care and maintenance in 2015. In August 2020, Pr emier Gold Mines USA, Inc. acquired the outstanding interests of Osgood Mining Company LLC (“Osgood”) from affiliates of Waterton Global Resource. In December 2020, Equinox Gold and Premier announced that they had entered into a definitive agreement whereby Equinox Gold would acquire all the outstanding shares of Premier. Concurrently, Premier spun-out its US-focused gold production and development assets into i-80 Gold, which included the Granite Creek project (previously known as the Pinson project). The transaction closed in April 2021. In February 2022, i-80 Gold announced that 2021 drilling was successful in delineating high-grade mineralization in multiple areas surrounding the existing mine workings. Test mining is underway underground, and i-80 Gold is targeting production ramp-up in 2022. Mined material will be processed at Nevada Gold Mines’ nearby Twin Creeks facility until i-80 Gold’s Lone Tree facility is operational.
