New Found Gold (TSXV: NFG) gained by 6.98% today to $6.59 per share and now has a market cap of $1.156 billion.
Earthlabs (TSXV: SPOT)'s 0.2% NSR royalty in NFG's flagship Queensway Project covers the highest grade zones and its royalty goes up to 0.5% for the rest of the property.
A 0.2% NSR royalty is worth approximately 2.0% of the property value, because SPOT doesn't need to pay for any of the $50 million+ NFG is spending on drilling each year and SPOT won't need to pay for the $1 billion+ in initial CAPEX to build a future mine.
2.0% of NFG's market cap of $1.156 billion = $23.12 million
There are dozens of royalty companies that would happily pay SPOT $23.12 million for its NFG royalty today!
