The Odyssey underground project supports royalty on part of the Canadian Malartic gold project. a mine life to at least 2039 and post 2029 is expected to produce an average of 545,400 ounces of gold per year. Production from the Odyssey The project is located in Quebec’s Abitibi mining district and rivals Detour project is expected to commence at Odyssey South by ramp access in Lake as Canada’s largest gold producer. The royalty covers seven claims on March 2023, with the mined ore to be processed at 51,500 tpd at the the property including the central portion of the open pit as shown in the Canadian Malartic mill. The Odyssey project is forecast to gradually ramp-up production in 2023, and is expected to contribute approximately schematic which equates to approximately 3 km2. Royalty payments are 50,000 ounces of gold in 2023 and 80,000 ounces of gold in 2024 and expected to fluctuate annually based on the location of mining relative 2025 to the Canadian Malartic Complex.

One of Franco- Nevada’s royalty claims covers a portion of the Odyssey South extension On a 100% basis, Canadian Malartic produced 658,792 ounces of gold in and two of Franco-Nevada’s royalty claims cover a portion of East Gouldie, ssets 2022 versus 2021 production of 714,784 ounces of gold. The midpoint as seen in the schematic below. of 2023 gold production at Canadian Malartic is estimated to be 668,000 ounces on a 100% basis (reported by Agnico Eagle to be between 575,000 A 1,800m deep shaft is planned to facilitate production from East and 595,000 ounces assuming 50% ownership of Canadian Malartic for Gouldie with shaft sinking expected to commence in 2023 and shaft the first three months and 100% ownership for the last nine months of commissioning in 2027.

During 2022, the mine continued the transition from the Canadian the 6.9 million ounces expected to be produced from the Odyssey project M Malartic pit to the Barnat pit. In 2023, production is expected to be over the 17-year mine life are from East Gouldie.
