Star Metro - Vox Royalty Announces Changes To Board of Directors

Kyle Floyd, Chief Executive Officer stated: "On behalf of the Board and management, I am pleased to announce these changes and very excited to welcome Luis Azevedo to Vox. Luis brings a unique combination of technical, legal, and strategic expertise, having spent more than three decades shaping Brazil's mining landscape and entrepreneurially forming companies that have progressed from discovery to production, and ultimately culminated in very successful exits for investors. Luis' deep understanding of both the geological and commercial frameworks in South America will be additive to our global business development efforts and aligns with our mission to be nimble, efficient, and disciplined in creating value for our shareholders."
