Novo Resources Corp. said July 27 that it exercised its right to acquire a 0.5% of a 1% net smelter royalty on its Comet Well gold project in Pilbara, Western Australia.
The move came after International Prospect Ventures Ltd. decided not to acquire the 0.5% NSR on Comet Well.
Novo will pay a total of C$1.8 million and issue to 138,946 shares within a year after receiving approval from the TSX Venture Exchange.
The company also agreed to issue a sub-royalty equivalent to 9% of its shares.
