Frederick Bell, CEO, commented, "Elemental has advanced beyond recognition over the course of 2020. We started the year as a private company undertaking the acquisition of our largest royalty to-date, on Endeavour Mining's Wahgnion mine. That was followed with the successful listing of the Company on the TSX-V alongside the largest fundraise in our history. Finally, our acquisition of a portfolio of precious metals royalties from South32 provides the company with the strongest organic growth pipeline we have ever had. Our largest 2% NSR royalty at Karlawinda is expecting first gold pour this quarter and based on that and the Mercedes royalty alone, we have significantly de-risked revenue growth through to 2023.

We continue to focus on further accretive royalty acquisitions and building out the portfolio alongside continued positive updates from some of our major operating partners, emphasising the optionality we have embedded in our existing uncapped portfolio of producing royalties."

2021 Outlook

In 2021, Elemental expects 4,000 to 4,400 attributable zero-cost gold equivalent ounces¹ from its existing portfolio, weighted towards the second half of the year, with 94% of expected revenue derived from gold and silver. At a US$1,750/oz to US$1,800/oz average received gold price, this would achieve revenue of US$7.0 million to US$7.9 million in 2021.

Notes

1. Non-IFRS Measures

The Company has included certain performance measures which are non-IFRS and is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These non-IFRS measures do not have any standard meaning under IFRS and other companies may calculate measures differently.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes the effects of certain other income/expenses and unusual non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA is comprised of earnings before interest, taxes, depletion, share based compensation, and the non-cash portion of the listing expense. Management believes that this is a useful measure of the Company's performance because it adjusts for items which may not relate to underlying operating performance of the Company and/or are not necessarily indicative of future operating results.

The Company's royalty revenue is converted to an attributable gold equivalent ounce basis by dividing the royalty revenue received in a period by the average gold price for the same respective period. The production forecast was derived using information that is available in the public domain as at the date hereof, which included guidance and estimates prepared and issued by management of the operators of the mining operations in which Elemental holds an interest. The production forecast is sensitive to the performance and operating status of the underlying mines. None of the information has been independently verified by Elemental and may be subject to uncertainty. There can be no assurance that such information is complete or accurate.

Neither the TSX-V nor its Regulation Service Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX-V.) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this press release.
