Announces call to discuss acquisition on Wednesday, September 13, 2023, at 10 a.m. EDT

All amounts in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / September 12, 2023 / Vox Royalty Corp. (TSX:VOXR)(NASDAQ:VOXR) ("Vox" or the "Company"), a returns focused mining royalty company, is pleased to announce that it has completed the strategic acquisition of a portfolio of 9 advanced development and exploration-stage royalties in Australia (the "Portfolio") from an Australian company (the "Seller"), as announced on July 31, 2023 (the "Transaction").

Spencer Cole, Chief Investment Officer stated: "We believe that this portfolio acquisition is one of the most exceptional transactions in Vox's corporate history. It provides Vox with exposure to ~50,000 gold equivalent ounces ("GEOs") under royalty coverage at a cost of ~$100/ounce with annual revenue potential from Red Hill of +$5M for a period of up to 10 years and Horseshoe Lights of $1M - $2M for a period of up to 6 years, with further exploration opportunity. The Red Hill royalty generated over A$7,000,000 in historical royalty revenue at much lower gold prices. We are excited about increasing our sector-leading portfolio weighting to Western Australia, enhancing our exposure to gold and copper and leverage to Tier One operators such as Northern Star Resources. This acquisition represents the initial accretive deployment of funds raised during Vox's public offering that was completed in June 2023."

Kyle Floyd, Chief Executive Officer added: "I am very excited to announce the closing of this portfolio of Australian royalties. I am grateful for the significant efforts of our team, over many years and countless hours, that resulted in this success. This acquisition further elucidates Vox's differentiated capabilities in finding, researching and procuring high quality royalty assets. We believe our competitive advantages and discipline will continue to deliver sector leading returns on invested capital complimented with immense long-term optionality. I am grateful for our supportive shareholders that understand our long term vision and supported us with the capital needed to secure assets such as these. We have completed what I believe is a transformational acquisition that dramatically increases our value for all of our shareholders."

Transaction Highlights

• Addition of 9 Australian royalties in Western Australia and Northern Territory, heavily weighted to gold and copper;
• Potential for near-term production from the Red Hill brownfields gold discovery (Inferred resource of 32.4Mt @ 1.1g/t for 1.2Moz gold) via the Kanowna Belle mill 3km west of Red Hill or the Fimiston mill 22km to the south-west at the Kalgoorlie Superpit operated by Northern Star Resources Ltd (ASX:NST) ("Northern Star");
• Further production potential from the past-producing Horseshoe Lights copper-gold project, with evaluation of historic Direct Ship Ore copper stockpiles to unlock early cashflow opportunities ongoing;
• Strengthens Vox's proportion of royalty assets located in lower risk political jurisdictions of Australia, Canada and USA, totalling more than 80% of all royalty assets, with a total of 46 royalties located in Australia;
• The Red Hill gold royalty historically generated A$7,064,196 of royalty revenue for the Seller from past production between 2003 and 2008, when gold prices were approximately $400/oz to $700/oz, with peak annual royalty revenue of A$2,633,510 in FY2007 from production by previous operator Barrick Gold Corporation (TSX:ABX) of 1,445,293 tonnes @ 1.86g/t for 81,159 ounces recovered; and
• Based on Vox management estimates driven by the resource estimates of Red Hill and Horseshoe Lights referenced below, the acquisition provides exposure to approximately 50,000 royalty-linked GEOs¹, using long-term broker consensus commodity prices.

Portfolio Overview

Note * : Payable >910Klb U3O8 cumulative production

The aggregate purchase price for the portfolio consists of cash and non-cash consideration. The cash consideration of A$6,750,000 was delivered on September 12, 2023 from cash on hand, and the non-cash consideration comprises Vox providing ongoing royalty related services to the vendor from Vox's proprietary database of royalties, to identify additional historical legacy royalties owned by the Seller.

Based on a number of expected near-term catalysts for a number of the royalty assets in the Portfolio, Vox management expects this acquisition will add near-term revenue for Vox, and result in significant additional medium- to long-term revenue for many years to come.

Key Assets

Kanowna Belle / Red Hill - 4% GRR^(1)(2(3))

The Red Hill deposit is located 3km east of Northern Star's Kanowna Belle mine and processing plant and 22km north-east of Northern Star's Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines Operations ("KCGM") and Fimiston processing plant in Western Australia. The project was historically mined as an open pit operation between 2001 and 2007, producing approximately 467,000oz of gold.

At Red Hill, gold mineralisation is present in quartz stockwork vein arrays hosted within a large porphyry intrusion. Mineralised veins typically dip shallowly to the north and may contain sulphides and visible gold.

Surface drilling recommenced at Red Hill in 2021 to outline the full extent of the mineralised porphyry intrusion below the current pit floor and along strike in both directions. The program to date has successfully outlined significant broad zones of gold mineralisation to a vertical depth of 400m. Recent drilling results highlight the significant scale of the Red Hill mineralised system, which remains open in all directions.

Recent exploration drilling in 2022 and 2023 returned broad intersections of gold mineralisation which is amenable to bulk mining scenarios. Exploration drilling has delivered exceptional results over the past 12 months resulting in a significant increase in the Inferred Mineral Resource⁽¹⁾ to 32.4Mt @ 1.1g/t for 1.2Moz. Red Hill is a free-milling ore source with high historical metallurgical recoveries of 95%.

The royalty covers mining lease M27/57, which is located over the centre of the deposit and which Vox management estimates covers the majority of the Inferred resource.

Upcoming expected catalysts for Red Hill royalty:

• Future drilling focusing on upgrading the resource classification;
• Potential resource expansion along strike and down dip; and
• Red Hill bulk mining scenarios and future development options for both Kanowna Belle 2Mtpa mill and KCGM Fimiston mill (13Mtpa expanding to 27Mtpa).

Horseshoe Lights Copper-Gold Project - 3% NSR^(4)(5)(6)

The Horseshoe Lights Copper-Gold Project is located 60km west of Sandfire Resources Ltd's DeGrussa Copper-Gold Mine, in Western Australia. The historic open pit Horseshoe Lights Mine operated up until 1994 and produced 316,000 ounces of gold and 55,000 tonnes of contained copper including over 110,000 tonnes of Direct Shipping Ore, which graded between 20-30% copper.

The Horseshoe Lights ore body is interpreted as a deformed Volcanogenic Hosted Massive Sulphide ("VMS") copper-gold deposit that has undergone supergene alteration to generate the gold-enriched and copper-depleted cap that was the target of initial mining. Past mining was focused on the Main Zone, a series of lensoid ore zones, which transitioned with depth from a gold-rich oxide zone through zones of high-grade chalcocite mineralisation into massive pyrite-chalcopyrite.

A previous Scoping Study completed by Horseshoe Metals in December 2014 targeted a 1Mtpa open pit mining operation producing upto 47,375t recovered copper, 12,730oz gold and 271,101oz silver in total over a potential 6 year mine life. Drilling carried out in 2022 and 2023 has highlighted multiple zones of high-grade copper mineralisation at the Main and Matters Zones - outside of the existing resource. This includes intercepts of 55m @ 0.88% Cu from 22m and 19m @ 1.49% Cu from 269m. The royalty covers mining lease M52/743, which covers the full resource, stockpiles and exploration areas targeted for further drilling and resource expansion.

Table 1 summarises the total measured, indicated and inferred Mineral Resources for the Horseshoe Lights Project as of June 30, 2023.

Cautionary Statements to U.S. Securityholders

This press release and the documents incorporated by reference herein, as applicable, have been prepared in accordance with Canadian standards for the reporting of mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates, which differ from the previous and current standards of the U.S. securities laws. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms "mineral reserve", "proven mineral reserve", "probable mineral reserve", "inferred mineral resources,", "indicated mineral resources," "measured mineral resources" and "mineral resources" used or referenced herein and the documents incorporated by reference herein, as applicable, are Canadian mineral disclosure terms as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the "CIM") - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the "CIM Definition Standards"). In addition to NI 43-101, a number of resource and reserve estimates have been prepared in accordance with the JORC Code (as such term is defined in NI 43-101), which differ from the requirements of NI 43-101 and U.S. securities laws but is defined in NI 43-101 as an "acceptable foreign code". Readers are cautioned that a qualified person has not carried out independent work to validate the JORC Code resource and reserve estimates referenced herein.

For U.S. reporting purposes, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") has adopted amendments to its disclosure rules (the "SEC Modernization Rules") to modernize the mining property disclosure requirements for issuers whose securities are registered with the SEC under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which became effective February 25, 2019. The SEC Modernization Rules more closely align the SEC's disclosure requirements and policies for mining properties with current industry and global regulatory practices and standards, including NI 43-101, and replace the historical property disclosure requirements for mining registrants that were included in SEC Industry Guide 7. Issuers were required to comply with the SEC Modernization Rules in their first fiscal year beginning on or after January 1, 2021. As a foreign private issuer that is eligible to file reports with the SEC pursuant to the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system, the Company is not required to provide disclosure on its mineral properties under the SEC Modernization Rules and will continue to provide disclosure under NI 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards. Accordingly, mineral reserve and mineral resource information contained or incorporated by reference herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by companies domiciled in the U.S. subject to U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

As a result of the adoption of the SEC Modernization Rules, the SEC now recognizes estimates of "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources." In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of "proven mineral reserves" and "probable mineral reserves" to be "substantially similar" to the corresponding CIM Definition Standards that are required under NI 43-101. While the SEC will now recognize "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources", U.S. investors should not assume that all or any part of the mineralization in these categories will be converted into a higher category of mineral resources or into mineral reserves without further work and analysis. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater amount of uncertainty as to its existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as reserves. Accordingly, U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources, or inferred mineral resources that the Company reports are or will be economically or legally mineable without further work and analysis. Further, "inferred mineral resources" have a greater amount of uncertainty and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. Therefore, U.S. investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of inferred mineral resources will be upgraded to a higher category without further work and analysis. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of "inferred mineral resources" may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. While the above terms are "substantially similar" to CIM Definitions, there are differences in the definitions under the SEC Modernization Rules and the CIM Definition Standards. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that the Company may report as "proven mineral reserves", "probable mineral reserves", "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources" under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the reserve or resource estimates under the standards adopted under the SEC Modernization Rules or under the prior standards of SEC Industry Guide 7.

Technical and Third-Party Information

Except where otherwise stated, the disclosure in this press release is based on information publicly disclosed by project operators based on the information/data available in the public domain as at the date hereof and none of this information has been independently verified by Vox. Specifically, as a royalty investor, Vox has limited, if any, acc ess to the royalty operations. Although Vox does not have any knowledge that such information may not be accurate, there can be no assurance that such information from the project operators is complete or accurate. Some information publicly reported by the project operators may relate to a larger property than the area covered by Vox's royalty interests. Vox's royalty interests often cover less than 100% and sometimes only a portion of the publicly reported mineral reserves, mineral resources, GEOs and production from a property.

References & Notes:

1. The following methodology has been used by Vox management to calculate GEOs:
   1. Red Hill: management estimates 65% of the Mineral Resource is subject to the royalty, at a royalty rate of 4.00%. A factor of 95% has been applied to gold to convert between contained and payable metal.
   2. Horseshoe Lights: management estimates 100% of the Mineral Resource is subject to the royalty, at a royalty rate of 3.00% (subject to NSR deductions). A factor of 90% has been applied to gold to convert between contained and payable metal.
   3. GEOs have been calculated assuming the following long-term, broker-consensus commodity prices as at 31 July 2023: $1,624/oz gold; $3.59/lb copper and $22/oz silver. Commodity prices are used to calculate the relative value of commodities with respect to gold; accordingly, the ratio between prices is more important than the individual commodity prices.
