VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 10, 2021 /CNW/ - Electric Royalties Ltd.
(TSXV: ELEC) (OTCQB: ELECF) ("Electric Royalties" or the "Company")
is pleased to announce that its common shares (the "Common Shares")
are now eligible for electronic clearing and settlement through the
Depository Trust Company ("DTC").
DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corp.
(DTCC), a United States company
that manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly
traded companies in the United
States. Securities that are eligible to be electronically
cleared and settled through DTC are considered to be "DTC
eligible."
DTC eligibility is expected to simplify the process of trading
and transferring the Common Shares and to enhance the liquidity of
the Common Shares in the United
States because of the accelerated settlement period and the
expected reduction in costs for investors and brokers, enabling the
stock to be traded over a much wider selection of brokerage
firms.
About Electric Royalties Ltd.
Electric Royalties is a royalty company established to take
advantage of the demand for a wide range of commodities (lithium,
vanadium, manganese, tin, graphite, cobalt, nickel, zinc &
copper) that will benefit from the drive toward electrification of
a variety of consumer products: cars, rechargeable batteries, large
scale energy storage, renewable energy generation and other
applications.
Electric vehicle sales, battery production capacity and
renewable energy generation are slated to increase significantly
over the next several years and with it, the demand for these
targeted commodities. This creates a unique opportunity to invest
in and acquire royalties over the mines and projects that will
supply the materials needed to feed the electric revolution.
Electric Royalties has a growing portfolio of 17 royalties,
including one royalty that currently generates revenue, with an
additional royalty acquisition in progress. The Company is
focused predominantly on acquiring royalties on advanced stage and
operating projects to build a diversified portfolio located in
jurisdictions with low geopolitical risk, which offers investors
exposure to the clean energy transition via the underlying
commodities required to rebuild the global infrastructure over the
next several decades towards a decarbonized global
economy.
