FAQ

Why Bullish?

The expansion of the Binduli North project is likely to enhance revenue, similar to past mining expansions that positively affected royalty stock prices. For example, other companies that leveraged operational improvements often saw a corresponding uptick in stock valuation soon after announcements of increased production capacity.

How important is it?

The announcement directly impacts Vox's financial forecasts, showing solid growth potential for VOXR shares. Investors generally respond favorably to consistent revenue growth signals from key projects, which boosts interest in stocks like VOXR.

Why Long Term?

Revenue from the expanded operations is expected to be realized over the mine's nine-year lifespan, providing sustained financial benefits. Long-term improvements in infrastructure and production rates historically lead to stable revenue streams, as seen in similar royalty-based mining operations.

Vox Royalty Corp. (TSX:VOXR)(NASDAQ:VOXR) ("Vox" or the "Company"), a returns focused mining royalty company, is pleased to announce a significant development at the producing, gold royalty-linked Binduli North gold project in Western Australia. Norton Gold Fields Pty Ltd ("Norton"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hong Kong and Shanghai-listed, Zijin Mining Group Co., Ltd., has received regulatory approval for a new Mining Proposal (defined below) that includes a planned major expansion to processing throughput and infrastructure.Spencer Cole, Chief Investment Officer stated: "The approval of an expanded Mining Proposal marks a major milestone for our producing Janet Ivy gold royalty at Binduli North. With a 40% increase in crushing and grinding capacity up to 7Mtpa, and a life-of-mine plan of up to 8Mtpa over approximately nine years with mineralization open along strike and at depth, this update significantly enhances royalty revenue potential on our uncapped production royalty. At this expanded 7Mtpa run-rate Vox management expects this royalty to potentially generate over US$2M in annual revenue1, which equates to an annual 50% cash return1 on its initial purchase price. The addition of (i) a mobile crushing circuit, (ii) expanded stockpiles, and (iii) processing flexibility between heap leach and the Paddington Mill further de-risk this long-life gold operation. We are encouraged by Norton's continued investment in and operational momentum at one of Vox's key producing Australian gold royalty assets."Figure 1 - Binduli Gold Heap Leach Operations and 2.4MW Solar Farm (background)(Source: https://nortongoldfields.com.au/our-assets/)Binduli North Expansion Highlights2:Vox holds an uncapped A$0.50/tonne production gold royalty interest over the Janet Ivy mining leases M26/446 and M26/833, which cover the majority of the Mining Proposal mine design tonnage results.The updated Mining Proposal (Version 7.2) ("Mining Proposal") was approved on July 16, 2025, by the Western Australian Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety ("DMIRS"). The Mining Proposal included the following key updates:40% Throughput Increase Approved: Overall crushing and grinding circuit capacity has been expanded from 5Mtpa to 7Mtpa, enabled by the addition of a new mobile crushing and feeding circuit.Operation and Life of Mine: Tonnes treated per annum expected to be up to 8Mtpa for an approximate life of operation of nine years. Total design volume for the Binduli North Heap Leach Facility is 58.1Mt.Enhanced Processing Flexibility: Low-grade waste material is expected to be crushed and screened at the new mobile facility, with material either stacked on the heap leach facility or transported to the Paddington Mill for processing.Infrastructure Expansion: Approval to develop additional stockpiles, process ponds, and heap leach circuit upgrades to support increased volumes.Approvals Timeline: According to MINEDEX, the Mining Proposal was submitted to DMIRS on May 1, 2025, and approved approximately ten weeks later on July 16, 2025, highlighting the speed of approval potential for certain Western Australian brownfields expansions.Background on Binduli Gold Project3:The Binduli Gold Operation is centrally located approximately 10km west of the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder, Western Australia, and is a large-tonnage heap leach and open‑pit mining hub comprising Binduli North (royalty-linked) and Binduli South (not royalty linked, undeveloped). The Binduli North tenements include the Fort William, Fort Scott, Karen Louise open pit gold deposits and the large royalty-linked Janet Ivy gold deposit.The Janet Ivy gold mineralisation extends over a 1.3km strike extent, and to an average vertical depth of 130 - 150m from surface. Mineralisation remains open along strike and at depth.Binduli North began ore processing in September 2022, marking the official commencement of production in mid‑2022. In 2024, the mine produced approximately 51,450 ounces of gold in its second full year of production.For more information on Janet Ivy, please visit the Norton website at https://nortongoldfields.com.au/binduli-gold-operation-centre/.About VoxVox is a returns focused mining royalty company with a portfolio of over 60 royalties spanning six jurisdictions.
