About NovaGold

NovaGold is a precious metals company engaged in the exploration and development of mineral

properties in Alaska, U.S.A. and British Columbia, Canada. The Company is focused on advancing its

two core properties, Donlin Creek and Galore Creek, with the objective of becoming a low-cost millionounce-

a-year gold producer, and offers superior leverage to gold and copper with one of the largest

reserve/resource bases of any junior or mid-tier gold company. NovaGold has a strong track record of

expanding deposits through exploration success and forging collaborative partnerships, both with local

communities and with major mining companies. The Donlin Creek project in Alaska, one of the world’s

largest undeveloped gold deposits, is held by a limited liability company owned equally by whollyowned

subsidiaries of NovaGold and Barrick Gold Corporation. The Galore Creek project in British

Columbia, a large copper-gold-silver deposit, is held by a partnership owned equally by wholly-owned

subsidiaries of NovaGold and Teck Resources Limited. NovaGold also owns a 100% interest in the highgrade

Ambler copper-zinc-gold-silver deposit in northern Alaska and has other earlier-stage exploration

properties. NovaGold trades on the TSX and NYSE-AMEX under the symbol NG. More information is
