“With a foundation of Nisg̱a’a Nation’s five royalties in four agreements, Nations Royalty’s vision is to unite First Nations and Indigenous groups across Canada and internationally, welcoming external investors to join the Company as shareholders. Together, they will combine royalties, income and commodity streams and annual benefit payment entitlements from resource projects, tapping into the growth, diversification and value potential typical of publicly traded royalty companies. As a leader in the spirit of economic reconciliation, Nations Royalty’s mission includes capacity building of Indigenous People in public companies and capital markets.”
Eva Clayton, President of Nisg̱a’a Lisims Government, stated: “our shareholding in Nations Royalty is an important step in optimizing Nisg̱a’a’s value in the Tier 1 mines and development projects located in the Golden Triangle. Nations Royalty’s vision presents a unique opportunity for the Nisg̱a’a Nation, other First Nations and Indigenous groups, and investors to access a portfolio encompassing precious and critical metal mines, oil and gas ventures, and renewable energy projects. With guidance from renowned mining entrepreneur, Frank Giustra, our ambition is to grow Nations Royalty into one of the top global royalty companies.”
K’alii-Aksim-Lisims, the Nass River, flows through a land of sacred mountains and dense forests on Canada’s Pacific Coast. The Nisg̱a’a people have lived in the Nass River Valley since before recorded time.
The Nisg̱a’a Final Agreement, British Columbia’s first modern treaty, recognizes Nisg̱a’a Lands and Nisg̱a’a Government. An example of hope, trust, and cooperation, the Nisg̱a’a Final Agreement is being studied by governments and Indigenous people the world over.
