2021 Sustainability Report2022 Sustainability Reporting Data Sheet

NOVAGOLD is a precious metals company and focused on the advancement of its Donlin Gold project in Alaska, owned in equal partnership with Barrick Gold Corporation. The project is federally permitted and is at the development stage.

Donlin Gold LLC is a committed partner with the Alaska Native Corporations who own the mineral and surface rights on which the project is located, as well as the Native communities surrounding the project site and throughout the state. An important factor that distinguishes the Donlin Gold project from most other mining assets in Alaska is that the project is located on Alaska Native-owned, private land that was designated for mining activities over fifty years ago. The commitments that we have made to our Alaska Native Corporation partners to protect the lands and peoples of the Y-K region are at the heart of all our sustainability planning, implementation, performance assessment, and reporting efforts. In 2022, we continued our long-standing record of mitigating impacts to the environment, ensuring the health and safety of our employees, and investing in the communities and people of the places we work.

NOVAGOLD believes it is appropriate to increase transparency, accountability, and enhance the suite of ESG metrics the company discloses to stakeholders.
