For their QB2 project, Teck needs to pay a 10% royalty to ENAMI (government).
Who would like to get a 10% royality for ever? Could be interesting!
Based on numbers from my previous post, if Teck does it again and sells 30% for 1.25B to Sumitomo, keeps 60% for them and give us a non-funded 10%, they could basically bring Schaft Creek in production for free! Yes... for free!
Obvisouly, with this option, our share price would skyrocket and people could probably manage to get out at their convenience over 2$. I'm sure even Ernesto would appreciate getting around 35M per year on his initial investment.
