/ Project Generation
Orogen and Altius Minerals’ generative exploration alliances focus on identifying new gold, silver, and copper opportunities in Nevada. The alliances combine Orogen’s technical expertise and project generation program funded by Altius with the goal of profitable royalty creation.
Altius Gold Alliance
The Altius Gold Alliance was established in 2022 to generate gold and silver exploration targets in central and southern Nevada, focused on mineral systems considered geologically analogous to the Expanded Silicon Project in Nevada.
The alliance combines Orogen’s technical databases and exploration expertise with funding provided by Altius for targeting, field evaluation, and project acquisition activities. Projects generated through the alliance may be advanced internally or vended to third parties in exchange for equity interests and retained royalty exposure.
