Wheaton Precious Metals: Transforming Mining Finance Through Streaming

A look at how Wheaton's unique model reshapes investor exposure to precious metals

Wheaton Precious Metals pioneered the streaming model in 2004, creating a new way for mining companies to receive upfront capital in exchange for a portion of their future production—typically gold or silver. With a fixed production payment averaging just $500 per gold-equivalent ounce, the model provides mining operators with critical funding while giving Wheaton and its shareholders exposure to resource upside with reduced risk. By partnering with producers of base metals like copper, Wheaton receives the byproduct gold and silver—allowing them to build a diverse portfolio of precious metal streams across multiple jurisdictions. This long-term approach has built investor confidence and made Wheaton a leader in mining finance innovation.
