 PROFILE
Franco-Nevada Mining owns gold mines, but the company doesn't waste much money exploring. Instead, it buys stakes in operating gold, silver, and platinum mines so it can collect royalties without having to worry about capital obligations or environmental liabilities. Franco-Nevada has proven and probable precious metals reserves totaling 13.2 million ounces in six countries. The company, which also owns oil and gas royalties in Canada, and nickel royalties in the Dominican Republic, has agreed to acquire a 20% stake in Australia-based gold miner Normandy Mining. South Africa scuttled Franco-Nevada's planned merger with Gold Fields Ltd. because it would provide little benefit to the South African economy.
