"We are very pleased to be adding a new gross royalty interest on the Bradshaw gold deposit to our portfolio, alongside significant exploration land coverage and equally important, Gold Royalties' first contractual right to jointly co-invest in what may become a substantive gold royalty stream for us in the future. This accretive proposed transaction will add in-situ royalty coverage of nearly 15,000 ounces of gold (net to Gold Royalties) at a carried-to-production acquisition cost of approximately $50 per ounce," stated Ryan Kalt, President and Chief Executive Officer of Gold Royalties.

About the Royalty Interest

The Bradshaw Gold Deposit

The Bradshaw Gold Deposit (formerly the Frankfield East Gold Deposit), is owned and operated by Gowest and is located in Ontario. The ore body comprises a resource base consisting of 945,600 ounces of gold in the Indicated category (6.0 million tonnes at a grade of 4.9 grams per tonne) and 536,800 ounces of gold in the Inferred category (3.7 million tonnes at a grade of 4.2 grams per tonne) (see Gowest news release dated November 20, 2012).

The Bradshaw Gold Deposit is a component of Gowest's broader North Timmins Gold Project (the "North Timmins Project"). The Bradshaw Gross Royalty and the Gold Stream ROFR apply coverage to the Bradshaw Gold Deposit, and the Exploration Gross Royalty and the Gold Stream ROFR apply coverage to the predominance of the broader North Timmins Project.

The North Timmins Project is situated in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt, an area underlain by Archean rocks of the Abitibi Subprovince of the Superior Province of the Canadian Shield. The belt contains a variety of geological terranes, including the Porcupine, Upper Tisdale and Kidd-Munro assemblages that are present in the North Timmins Project area (see Gowest website, www.gowestgold.com).
