In the competitive metals royalty and streaming industry, Ecora Resources (TSX: ECOR) stands apart by targeting non-precious metals pivotal to the energy transition, CEO Marc Bishop Lafleche asserts.

Like other royalty and streaming companies, Ecora offers non-dilutive, flexible financing and long-term partnership opportunities that represent a stable capital source for miners, Lafleche says.
