Copper, which is essential to EV and renewable energy transitions, represents our largest revenue exposure. Growing exposure to key battery metals - nickel, lithium and cobalt

Potash fertilizer royalties relate to a portfolio of top-tier Canadian mines that are integral to meeting the increasing demand for sustainable food productionwithout additional deforestation

Royalties relate to high-purity iron ore products - that minimize pollution from steel production

ROYALTY LIVES Unrivalled Sustainability & Expandability

Weighted to 2019 revenue contribution levels our royalties have a potential weighted average remaining life of more than 120 years.

Mine lives calculated based on current mineral inventory and 2019 throughput. Coal asset lives denote the expected plant closure and not based on mineral inventory. The 2019 revenue weighted average mine life is based on remaining reserves inclusive of MI resources and

throughput capacity.

HISTORIC ROYALTY ACQUISITION RETURNSPortfolio Performance

Note:

1. Purchase price is based on cash purchase price in CAD. For the acquisition of Callinan Royalties in 2015, the purchase price excludes cash and consideration allocated to non-royalty related assets. (see Note 9, 2016 Annual Financial

Statements), and includes the cost to exercise the option increasing the Gunnison Gross Sales Royalty (exercised in 2018).. The main producing royalty in Callinan is 777 with the Gunnison development stage royalty also part of that

acquisition.

2. After tax unlevered cash flow is the cumulative (since acquisition) reported revenue up to December 31, 2021 after accounting for 27% corporate income tax. For LIORC, the effective tax rate is adjusted to zero to reflect the actual tax rate

on inter-corporate dividends. For the Chapada copper stream, reported revenue is net of a 30% deduction to reflect the cost of purchasing copper, as per the contract. The effective tax rate on Chapada is 0% until the initial deposit of

US$60 million is fully recovered. Voisey’s Bay royalty revenues are shown net of the 20% Newfoundland & Labrador royalty tax.

3. Consensus NAV by asset based on analysts reports from November 2020 - January 2021. The Callinan NAV consensus is based on NAV ascribed to 777 and to Gunnison. ARR NAV refers to the market value of Altius Minerals interest in the

public company (ARR:TSX).
