On the basis of the below, and the latest quarterly up to date figures, who fully understands the cost ATM are currently paying on the Orion Royalty???
Royalty
Β· The Company has today entered into a Royalty Agreement with Uis Tin Mining Proprietary Limited ("Uis"); OMF Limited; Greenhills Resources Limited and Andrada Mining (Namibia) (Proprietary) Limited pursuant to which Uis, the subsidiary of the Company, grants to OMF Limited up to US$12.5 million unsecured gross royalty over tin production, which is drawn down at staggered rates based on increasing contained tin gross revenue produced at the Uis Mine.
Β· A base rate of 5.13% at the current production run rate with a 15-month fixed commitment from drawdown to allow the proceeds to be converted into additional production. If the increased production has not been achieved within 15 months, then the rate temporarily increases to 9.63% until the increased production is achieved, with a linear decrease from this rate to 5.13% from 1000 tpa to 1599 tpa.
Β· At an annualised contained tin production between 1,600 tpa to 2,000 tpa the rate will further reduce from 4.50% to 3.61%, ultimately reducing to 0.86% with the Phase 2 expansion.
Β· Once the royalty has been paid against 95,500 tonnes, the rate then further reduces by 75% in respect of the first 9,800 tonnes, or 87.5% in respect of the production in excess of 9,800 tonnes for the remainder of that year. The 75% rate reduction for the first 9,800 tonnes in a year and by 87.5% for amounts in excess of 9.800 tonnes in that year then applies separately for each subsequent year.
