Item Two - Date of Material Change
Item Three - Press Release
The attached press release was issued in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Item Four - Summary of Material Change
On April 9, 2003, NovaGold Resources Inc. announced that a new joint Placer Dome, NovaGold and AMEC resource estimate confirms NovaGold’s November 2002 amounts regarding the Donlin Creek gold deposit in Alaska. Measured and indicated category resources are significantly increased since November 2002. The new resource estimate represents a 62% increase in measured and indicated resources and 138% increase in inferred resources over the Placer Dome December 2000 estimate. It was also announced that the Donlin Creek joint venture is to complete a pre-feasibility study by the fourth quarter 2003.
Item Five - Full Description of Material Change
On April 9, 2003, NovaGold Resources Inc. announced that a new joint Placer Dome, NovaGold and AMEC resource estimate confirms NovaGold’s November 2002 amounts regarding the Donlin Creek gold deposit in Alaska. Measured and indicated category resources are significantly increased since November 2002. The new resource estimate represents a 62% increase in measured and indicated resources and 138% increase in inferred resources over the Placer Dome December 2000 estimate. It was also announced that the Donlin Creek joint venture is to complete a pre-feasibility study by the fourth quarter 2003.
The Donlin Creek Joint Venture (NovaGold 70% / Placer Dome 30%) has just completed a new resource estimate for the Donlin Creek gold deposit in Alaska. This new resource estimate
confirms the November 2002 estimates completed by NovaGold and AMEC E&C Services Limited and significantly increases the Measured and Indicated Resource category. Compared with the last estimates completed by Placer Dome in December 2000, the Measured and Indicated Resource categories (using a 1.5 gram-per-tonne (g/t) cut-off grade) have increased 62% to 11.1 million ounces of gold grading an average of 3.0 g/t gold. In addition, the Inferred Resource has increased 138% to 14.3 million ounces of gold grading 3.1 g/t. Within this is a higher grade resource that includes 4.7 million ounces grading 5.1 g/t of Measured and Indicated material and an additional Inferred Resource of 6.8 million ounces grading 5.5 g/t using a 3.5 g/t cut-off.
Since the project has now advanced to the Pre-Feasibility Stage, this estimate and all future estimates, will only report as resources the mineralization that falls within a potentially economic pit model. The amounts in the current estimate represent 90% of the Inferred Category mineralization and 99% of the Measured and Indicated Category mineralization that falls within a pit model and is classified as resource. Previous estimates by Placer Dome, NovaGold and AMEC would have used 100% of these amounts. The additional mineralization that is located outside of the pit model could eventually be included in future estimates as the pit model deepens and expands along strike with further drilling.
A table entitled "Donlin Creek Resource Estimates" was also included. A 1.5 g/t economic cutoff grade is being used for the project based on an assumed 20,000 to 30,000 tonne per day mill processing rate.
The new resource estimates are based on an updated 3D geologic and mineralization model that integrates 58,000 meters (192,000 feet) of drilling completed by NovaGold in 2001 and 2002 and 93,000 meters (304,000 feet) of drilling previously completed by Placer Dome. The model contains a total of 85,760 assays from 172,000 meters (564,000 feet) of drilling and trenching.
The most recent drill programs and sampling protocol were managed by NovaGold with oversight provided by Phil St. George, Vice President of Exploration and Project Manager for NovaGold Resources. All drill samples were analyzed by fire assay at ALS Chemex Labs in Vancouver, B.C., Canada. Database quality control and quality assurance standards were overseen by independent engineering firm AMEC E&C Services Limited (AMEC) of Vancouver. Dr. Harry Parker, P.Geo., of AMEC (formerly MRDI) and Marc Jutras, P.Eng., Senior Geostatistician, of Placer Dome, supervised the resource estimate and approved of all procedures, protocols and methodology used in the estimation. Dr. Parker and Mr. Jutras are Qualified Persons as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
The completion of the updated resource estimate is the first development milestone for the new Donlin Creek Joint Venture. The joint venture is on track to complete the project Pre-Feasibility study in the fourth quarter of 2003. The study is being conducted by AMEC E&C Services Limited, an independent engineering services company. Engineering studies currently underway include: detailed pit designs, mill process work, site facilities layout and on-going environmental monitoring in anticipation of future mine permitting.
As a priority development project for Placer Dome, NovaGold shareholders should see
considerable added value as the Donlin Creek Project advances through Pre-Feasibility, Feasibility and to a positive construction decision. Placer Dome must expend in excess of US$30 million, complete a bankable Feasibility Study and make a decision to construct a mine producing at least 600,000 ounces of gold annually before November 14, 2007 in order to earn an additional 40% interest in the project. The Donlin Joint Venture is looking at a high-tonnage operation in the range of 20,000 to 30,000 tonnes per day that potentially would produce over 1 million ounces of gold per year. NovaGold’s annual share of this gold production would range from 300,000 to 400,000 ounces of gold per year.
NovaGold will review developments at Donlin Creek, Rock Creek and other projects as well as its annual financial results as part of a soon to be schedule conference call.
NovaGold is a precious metals company focused on the exploration and development of gold properties in North America. NovaGold is well financed, has no debt, and one of the largest unhedged gold resource bases of any junior gold company. Shares of NovaGold are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (symbol NRI). Annual and quarterly financial reports, news releases and other information are available online at: www.novagold.net.
