About Orogen Royalties Inc
Orogen is a royalty and mineral exploration company with a diversified portfolio of precious metal royalties and copper, gold, and silver projects across Canada, the United States, Mexico, Argentina, Kenya, and Colombia. Its business comprises two segments: mineral royalties and exploration project generation. The Company also owns a geological database covering regions of Mexico, Central Asia, the South Pacific, western Canada, and the western United States. Orogen identifies, stakes, and acquires early‑stage projects, advancing them enough to demonstrate geological potential before partnering with companies capable of funding and delineating mineral deposits. The Company retains upside through royalties and milestone paymentswhile expanding its royalty portfolio through new acquisitions. Using a prospect generation model, Orogen manages exploration and financial risk, enabling disciplined growth of its royalty assets while maintaining exposure to discovery. This counter‑cyclical approach allows Orogen to acquire projects when valuations are low and monetize them when market conditions improve. This strategy has produced two significant discoveries: the Ermitaño project, now in production under First Majestic Silver Corp., and the Arthur Gold project (formerly the Expanded Silicon project), being advanced by AngloGold Ashanti NA.
