Royal Gold subsidiary sold over 63K of gold equivalent ounces in Q4

It reported 21,000 gold oz, 461,200 silver oz and 400 copper tonnes in inventory by the end of the year

Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD)’s subsidiary sold thousands of gold equivalent ounces in the last quarter of 2022 reaching over US$24.9 million.

The Denver-based royalty company announced it sold  63,100 gold equivalent ounces (GEOs) including 46,000 gold ounces, 706,600 silver ounces and 2,000 tonnes of copper via its subsidiary RGLD Gold AG.

RGLD Gold AG’s average realized gold, silver and copper prices for the fourth quarter were US$1,710 per ounce, US$20.09 per ounce and US$8,004 per tonne (US$3.63 per pound), respectively. The cost of sales was approximately US$396 per GEO for the fourth quarter which would total around US$25 million.

The cost depends on each streaming agreement and its the result of the company’s purchase of gold, silver or copper for cash payments at a set contractual price, or a percentage of the prevailing market price of gold, silver or copper when purchased.

The company reported 21,000 ounces of gold, 461,200 ounces of silver and 400 tonnes of copper in inventory by the end of the year.
