28.04.2021  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, April 28, 2021 - Metalla Royalty & Streaming Ltd. ("Metalla" or the "Company") (TSXV: MTA) (NYSE American: MTA) is pleased to announce that effective immediately it has appointed Douglas B. Silver to the board of directors of the Company, as an independent director, subject to regulatory approval.

"We are privileged to have Mr. Silver, who is one of the most respected leaders in the royalty and streaming business, join the Metalla team," commented Brett Heath, President and CEO of Metalla. "Mr. Silver has overseen US$2 billion worth of successful transactions in the precious metals royalty and streaming sector and will strengthen Metalla's board with his industry-leading experience. We look forward to working with Doug as Metalla continues to emerge as a significant player in the royalty and streaming sector."

Douglas Silver commented, "having created, purchased and sold more than 150 royalties and streams in the past fifteen years, I recognize Metalla's strong portfolio of royalty and streaming assets and believe that it has the potential to emerge into a major industry player. I look forward to working with Brett and his team as we strive to create significant shareholder value."

ABOUT DOUGLAS B. SILVER

Mr. Silver began his career as an exploration geologist for Anaconda Copper Company ("Anaconda"), one of the world's largest copper mining companies. While at Anaconda, he was a co-discoverer of the Silver Creek molybdenum deposit in Colorado. This success saw Douglas get promoted into the first fully dedicated acquisition team where he began a forty-year career of investigating, valuing and purchasing mining assets. In 1987, Mr. Silver was a founding member and head of investor relations for Bond International Gold, which became one of the world's largest gold mining companies which was subsequently acquired by Lac Minerals which was later amalgamated into Barrick Gold Corporation. Bond Gold's NYSE listing was the largest mining IPO in 1989. Douglas then established his private company, Balfour Holdings Inc, where he acted as a strategic advisor to global mineral companies by providing appraisals, valuations, due diligence, investor relations and M&A advice.

In 2003 he co-founded International Royalty Corporation ("IRC"), a company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, and served as its Chairman and CEO. His team built IRC into the world's fourth largest precious metals royalty company in under five years. In 2010 the company was sold for C$749 million to Royal Gold (NASDAQ: RGLD) following a prolonged battle with Franco Nevada for the company. IRC was the largest mining-related IPO on the TSX in 2005 having raised C$190 million. Most of these funds went to purchase a royalty on the giant Voisey's Bay nickel project, which represented the largest royalty transaction ever completed at that time. In 2011 he became a Portfolio Manager for Red Kite Management, a private equity firm, where he was responsible for sourcing, negotiating and closing investments. Subsequently, Red Kite spun out Orion Resource Partners ("Orion") in 2013. Douglas helped grow Orion into the world's largest mining private equity firm (managing ~US$6B) and directly managed the C$1.1 billion portfolio sale of Orion's royalties and streams to Osisko Gold Royalties (NYSE & TSX: OR). Mr. Silver retired from Orion in December 2020.

In 2018, Mr. Silver was inducted into the U.S. National Mining Hall of Fame. He holds an M.Sc. in Economic Geology from the University of Arizona and a B.A. in Geology and Zoology from the University of Vermont. He is also known for his philanthropic work with educators, women's issues and industry non-profits. In 1989, Mr. Silver founded the Denver Gold Group, today the world's most prestigious gold investment conference.
