The company is also acquiring a gold stream from the Vatukoula Gold Mines in Fiji for an upfront deposit of $30 million. Stream deliveries will be in fixed amounts for the first six years of mine life, growing from 2,280 oz. gold in the first two years to 5,340 per year for the following four years. After six years the stream will be variable for the life of the mine. Delivery is to begin in August.

Sandstorm anticipates additional revenue of C$12 million to C$15 million per year. The company has also raised its 2021 guidance to 62,000 to 69,000 gold equivalent ounces. Its portfolio now includes 229 streams and royalties, of which 29 cover producing mines.
