In the energy sector, the company has built a complementary portfolio of oil and gas royalties focused on basins in North America and Europe, providing balanced exposure to both minerals and hydrocarbons.
Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Franco-Nevada was re-established in 2007 following a spin-out from a predecessor mining company.

The company is led by Executive Chairman David Harquail and President & Chief Executive Officer Paul Brink, whose collective experience spans finance, resource development and capital markets. Their leadership has guided Franco-Nevada to maintain a strong balance sheet and pursue opportunities that enhance long-term shareholder value.
Franco-Nevada’s royalty and streaming agreements provide exposure to projects across North America, Latin America, Africa, Australia and select European jurisdictions. By partnering with established mining and energy operators, the company benefits from a diversified revenue stream that is resilient to commodity price cycles and operational disruptions. Franco-Nevada continues to seek new royalty and streaming opportunities, emphasizing jurisdictions with supportive regulatory frameworks, strong infrastructure and attractive resource potential.
