The Registrant is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b‑4 under the Exchange Act. Equity securities of the Registrant are accordingly exempt from Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c), and 14(f) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 3a12‑3 thereunder. Insiders of the Registrant are also exempt from Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this Annual Report on Form 40‑F are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Additionally, the safe harbor provided in Section 21E of the Exchange Act and Section 27A of the Securities Act applies to any forward-looking information provided pursuant to “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” and “Disclosure of Contractual Obligations” in this Annual Report on Form 40‑F.

MINERAL RESOURCE AND MINERAL RESERVE ESTIMATES

Unless otherwise indicated, all mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates included in the documents incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 40‑F have been prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification System. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian securities administrators, which establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates, and other scientific and technical information, contained in the documents incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 40‑F may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies.

DIFFERENCES IN UNITED STATES AND CANADIAN REPORTING PRACTICES

The Registrant is permitted, under the multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States, to prepare this Annual Report on Form 40‑F in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which are different from those of the United States.

The Registrant prepares its consolidated financial statements, which are filed with this Annual Report on Form 40‑F, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Such financial statements may not be comparable to financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts in this Annual Report on Form 40‑F are in United States dollars. The exchange rate of Canadian dollars into United States dollars, on December 31, 2025, based upon historical rates published by the U.S. Federal Reserve, was U.S.$1.00 = C$1.3690.

Purchasing, holding, or disposing of securities of the Registrant may have tax consequences under the laws of the United States and Canada that are not described in this Annual Report on Form 40‑F.

Based upon that evaluation, the Registrant’s PEO and PFO have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the design and operation of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that (i) information required to be disclosed in reports that the Registrant files or submits to regulatory authorities is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by regulation, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Registrant’s PEO and PFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting & Auditor Attestation

This Annual Report on Form 40-F does not include a report of management’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) or an attestation report of the Registrant’s registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for newly public companies.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Registrant completed the acquisition of EMX Royalty Corporation ("EMX"), which significantly expanded the Registrants's operations.

Management is in the process of integrating EMX's internal controls with those of the Registrant. Other than the foregoing, during the year ended December 31, 2025, there were no changes in the Registrant's ICFR that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant's internal control over financial reporting.
