Alpha 3 is incorporated in the United Arab Emirates and owns a portfolio of 23 mining royalties in Australia, acquired from Newcrest Mining Ltd.

Altus and AlphaStream Capital Ltd have signed a sales and purchase agreement after which each will own 50% of Alpha 3.

“The proceeds from this deal will be applied to potential further accretive royalty acquisitions, as well as our ‘boots on the ground’ and high-impact royalty generation strategy in Mali, Egypt and other countries in Africa,” said Altus chief executive Steven Poulton.

The company holds a total of 33 royalty interests globally, including royalties on four producing mines.
