March 16 (Reuters) - Elliott Investment Management on
Thursday raised its stake in gold-focused streaming and royalty
firm Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp TFPM.TO to 67% from
64.7%.
The hedge fund acquired 4.7 million shares in Triple Flag at
C$16.50 per share.
Triple Flag provides upfront financing to miners in exchange
for a share of future revenue or production. It has vested
interests in royalty, concerning Alamos Gold Inc's
Young-Davidson mine located in Ontario, and Kirkland Lake Gold
Ltd's Fosterville underground mine in Australia.
The mine financing company in 2021 had raised more than $250
million in an initial public offering, the biggest Toronto Stock
Exchange mining debut since 2012.
Elliott previously had bought 129.1 million shares in the
Canada-based company, according to an SEC filing.
