Business Combinations [Abstract] |
ACQUISITIONS | ACQUISITIONS On December 16, 2014, the Company entered into a merger agreement under which it will issue, in exchange for each issued and outstanding share of Paramount Gold and Silver Corp. ("Paramount"), 0.2016 shares of common stock of the Company, subject to closing conditions being satisfied. Immediately prior to completion of the merger, Paramount will spin-off to its existing stockholders a separate, publicly traded company, expected to be named Paramount Nevada Gold Corp. (“SpinCo”), a subsidiary that owns the Sleeper Gold Project and other assets in Nevada. As part of the transaction, subject to satisfaction of closing conditions, Coeur will make a loan to Paramount in the principal amount of $8.5 million and Paramount will contribute all of the proceeds of such loan to SpinCo as an equity contribution, and SpinCo will issue to Coeur, in exchange for a cash payment by Coeur in the amount of $1.5 million, newly issued shares of SpinCo common stock amounting to 4.9% of the outstanding SpinCo common stock after issuance. On December 16, 2014, the Company acquired a 0.7% NSR royalty on Paramount's San Miguel project in a separate transaction not conditioned on the successful acquisition of Paramount for $5.3 million. On July 2, 2014, the Company acquired a pre-existing 3.0% NSR royalty on the La Preciosa silver-gold project for $12.0 million. On May 27, 2014, the Company's subsidiary, Coeur Capital, Inc., entered into an NSR royalty agreement with Northair Silver Corp. (formerly, International Northair Mines, Ltd., "Northair").

The Company completed the acquisition of Global Royalty Corporation (“GRC”) on December 13, 2013. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination.
