Vancouver, British Columbia, March 26, 2020 (NYSE American: EMX; TSX Venture: EMX) – EMX Royalty Corporation (the “Company” or “EMX”) is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced acquisition of net smelter returns royalty interests covering 18 properties in Chile from Revelo Resources Corp. (“Revelo”) for US$1,162,000. Of that amount, US$ 369,907 was applied to fully repay EMX for an outstanding loan due from Revelo.
Under TSX Venture policy, the transaction was non-arm’s length due to a common director and, therefore, that director abstained from participating in all negotiations and from voting on the transaction which was approved by the independent directors of both companies.
