Vox Royalty Corp. has re‑structured its 35 % gold offtake from the Santa Luz, Fazenda and RDM mines in Brazil by moving the remaining delivery obligations to a new production‑linked stream at Equinox Gold Corp.’s Greenstone mine in Ontario, Canada. The new stream will provide 29 % of the refined gold produced at Greenstone, with a minimum delivery of 63,600 ounces for 2026, while the existing Greenstone offtake—acquired in September 2025—remains in priority and will deliver up to 58,500 ounces annually through March 1 2027.
The restructuring transfers roughly 226,000 ounces that were previously scheduled from the Brazilian assets to the Canadian mine. It aligns Vox’s portfolio with Equinox’s strategic focus on high‑grade, near‑production projects and coincides with Equinox’s sale of its Brazilian operations to CMOC Group for $1.015 billion. By consolidating its exposure to a single, commercially producing asset, Vox reduces geographic risk and positions itself to benefit from Greenstone’s projected 250,000‑300,000‑ounce output in 2026 at cash costs of $1,350‑$1,450 per ounce.
Greenstone achieved commercial production in November 2024 and is expected to deliver the full 2026 guidance range. The new offtake stream’s minimum delivery requirement provides Vox with a predictable baseline, while the 29 % share of refined gold offers upside if production exceeds guidance. The shift also removes the need to monitor the Brazilian mines, which are being divested, thereby simplifying Vox’s royalty administration and reducing exposure to potential operational disruptions in Brazil.
CEO Kyle Floyd said the move “increases Vox’s exposure to one of Equinox’s cornerstone assets and aligns our portfolio with high‑grade, near‑production gold projects.” He added that the transaction “strengthens our position in a Tier 1 Canadian mine and supports our strategy of focusing on assets with proven commercial viability.” The agreement reflects Vox’s broader acquisition strategy, which has expanded its portfolio through the 2025 Deterra Royalties deal and continues to target large‑cap operators.
The restructuring is expected to improve Vox’s revenue stability and enhance its risk profile by concentrating on a single, high‑grade asset with proven commercial output. It also positions the company to capture upside from any production growth at Greenstone, while eliminating the need to manage the Brazilian offtake streams that are being sold. Overall, the transaction supports Vox’s long‑term strategy of building a portfolio of high‑quality, near‑production gold royalties.
