Description

Less than a year after its launch as a public company, LunR Royalties is already looking to compete for much larger precious-metals deals after establishing its first major cash-flowing asset at Fruta del Norte. Speaking with Kitco Mining’s Paul Harris at the 2026 Mining Forum Americas, CEO Adam Lundin said LunR is prepared to evaluate transactions ranging from $50 million to as much as $1.5 billion. The company’s approximately $670 million Fruta del Norte silver stream has already started generating revenue, while a $150 million credit facility gives LunR additional capacity to pursue future deals. “Try and punch above our weight,” Lundin said, while stressing that growth must remain disciplined. LunR is also looking beyond Lundin Group companies for future royalties and streams, including overlooked precious-metal byproducts at major producing mines. Lundin said that even without another acquisition, continued growth at Fruta del Norte and the eventual development of Lunahuasi and Los Helados could potentially triple current cash flow over time. The company is also open to partnering with larger royalty groups on major transactions where a syndicated approach makes sense, with Lundin saying shareholder returns remain the ultimate measure of success.
