It is one of the richest and most-prospective known copper-dominant districts located in one of the safest geopolitical jurisdictions in the world.

Both deposits are located within the Company's land package that spans approximately 143,000 hectares. The Company has an agreement with NANA Regional Corporation, Inc., a Regional Alaska Native Corporation that provides a framework for the exploration and potential development of the Ambler mining district in cooperation with local communities.
