Under stream agreements, it provides upfront funding in exchange for the right and obligation to buy an agreed share of a mine’s output at contract-defined prices over the agreement’s life; delivered metal is then sold to customers, typically at spot or average spot prices. Its royalty interests provide contractual payments linked to production or revenue.
