Triple Flag stream financing on the Agbaou and Bonikro gold mines
Torys acted as counsel to Triple Flag in its US$53 million gold streaming transaction with Allied Gold Corp. pursuant to streaming agreements with reference to production from each of the Agbaou and Bonikro gold mines in Côte d'Ivoire.
On August 14, 2024, Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp., through its wholly-owned subsidiary Triple Flag International Ltd. (together, “Triple Flag”) completed its previously announced acquisition of 3% gold streams on each of the Agbaou and Bonikro mines operated by Allied Gold Corp. (“Allied Gold”) for a total cash consideration of US$53 million.
The Agbaou and Bonikro mines are located in Côte d’Ivoire within the Birimian greenstone belt, approximately 20 km apart, and operate as a single complex. On a combined basis, Allied is targeting a production rate of 180,000 to 200,000 ounces per annum and a greater than 10-year mine life from the complex. Its production guidance for 2024 is 85,000 to 95,000 ounces of gold.
Under the terms of the transaction, following the initial US$53 million upfront cash payment, Allied Gold will receive ongoing payments equal to 10% of the spot gold price for a portion of its production. Triple Flag will have the right to purchase 3% of the payable gold related to production at each mine, subject to a step-down to 2% after set delivery thresholds.
