NovaGold Resources Inc. I
Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

Summary (Item 3)
SRK Consulting (US), Inc. (SRK) was commissioned by NovaGold Resources Inc. (NovaGold)
to prepare an independent Technical Report on Resources (Technical Report) of the Ambler
Project (the Project) located in Alaska. This Technical Report has been prepared in general
accordance with the guidelines provided by the National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101)
Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. This assessment is a preliminary resource
estimate of the contained resources at the Project.
Property Description and Location
The Project consists of the Arctic volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposit located in the
southern Brooks Range of northwestern Alaska in the Northwest Arctic Borough. The Project is
geographically isolated with no roads accessing the site and no existing power generating
infrastructure in the region.
The Project is located in the Ambler District, in the southern Brooks Range of northwestern
Alaska at geographic coordinates N67.17º latitude and W156.38º longitude. Work is performed
at the site using Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) North American Datum (NAD) 1927
Zone 4. The center of the Project area is 263km east of the town of Kotzebue, 29km north of the
village of Kobuk, 260km west of the Dalton Highway and 480km northwest of Fairbanks. The
current size of the property is approximately 65km long x 8km wide and comprises a total of
36,750ha.
Ownership
Kennecott Exploration Company, Kennecott Arctic Company (collectively Kennecott) and
Alaska Gold Company are parties to a joint venture agreement on the Project effective March 23,
2004. In this agreement, NovaGold may earn up to 51% in the Project subject to the completion
by NovaGold of the following:
• Performance of certain environmental mitigation efforts within the Ambler District;
• Execution of exploration programs resulting in expenditures of at least US$5,000,000
over the first five years of the Project;
• Delivery to Kennecott by March 23, 2016 of a Pre-Feasibility Study with a positive rate
of return using a discount rate of 10%;
• Obtainment of an executed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with critical Alaskan
stakeholder groups; and
• Expenditures in total of US$20,000,000 prior to March 23, 2016 over a 12-year period.
As of August 2007, NovaGold had achieved the first two requirements of the Joint Venture
agreement. Exploration programs in excess of the minimum requirement have been completed,
and NovaGold has addressed identified environmental concerns associated with the former
Kennecott-operated Arctic camp, the Arctic airstrip and the Picnic Creek campsite.
NovaGold is manager of the project through to the completion of a final feasibility study, at
which time Kennecott has a one-time option to acquire an extra 2% interest in the project from
NovaGold and assume the management of construction and operation of the mine by making a
one-time payment to NovaGold equivalent to 4% of the project's net present value.

Geology and Mineralization


Rocks that form the Ambler schist belt consist of a lithologically diverse sequence of lower,
Paleozoic, possibly Devonian age, carbonate and siliciclastic strata with interlayered mafic lava
flows and sills. The clastic strata, derived from terrigenous continental and volcanic sources,
were deposited primarily by mass-gravity flow into the sub-wavebase environment of an
extending marginal basin.
NovaGold’s work shows that the Ambler sequence underwent two periods of intense, penetrative
deformation. Sustained upper greenschist-facies metamorphism with coincident formation of a
penetrative schistosity and isoclinal transposition of bedding marks the first deformation period.
Pervasive similar-style folds on all scales deform the transposed bedding and schistosity,
defining the second event. At least two later non-penetrative compressional events deform these
earlier fabrics. NovaGold’s observations of the structural and metamorphic history of the
Ambler District are consistent with current tectonic evolution models for the schist belt, based on
the work of others elsewhere in southern Brooks Range (Gottschalk and Oldow, 1988; Till et al.,
1988; Vogl et al., 2002).
The mineralization at the Project and within the Ambler District consists of Devonian age,
polymetallic (Zn-Cu-Pb-Ag) VMS occurrences. VMS deposits are formed by and associated
with sub-marine volcanic-related hydrothermal events. These events are related to spreading
centers such as fore arc, back arc or mid-ocean ridges. VMS deposits are often stratiform
accumulations of sulfide minerals that precipitate from hydrothermal fluids on or below the
seafloor. These deposits are found in association with volcanic, volcaniclastic and/or siliciclastic
rocks. They are classified by their depositional environment and associated proportions of mafic
and/or felsic igneous rocks to sedimentary rocks.
Mineralization occurs as stratiform semi-massive to massive sulfide beds. The sulfide beds
average 4m thick but vary from less than 1m to 18m thick. The bulk of the mineralization is
within four zones located between two thrust faults, the upper Warm Springs Thrust and the
Lower Thrust. A smaller fifth zone is located below the Lower Thrust. All of these zones are
within an area of roughly 1km2, with average zone length ranging from 600m to 850m and width
ranging from 350m to 700m. Depths of known mineralization extend to approximately 250m
below the surface. Host rocks are primarily graphitic chlorite schists and fine-grained quartz
sandstones.
Exploration
Exploration on the Project was intermittent between the discovery of Arctic in 1965 through to
1998. From 1998 until 2003, there was no work performed on the Project. NovaGold entered
into negotiations with Kennecott to explore its Ambler land position in mid 2003. Negotiations
were completed and a joint venture agreement signed on March 23, 2004. Since 2004,
NovaGold has been performing project level and regional mapping, drilling, geophysics and
geochemical surveys.
While efforts during 2004 and 2005 were directed at drilling and delineating the Project, work in
2006 was focused on exploration for new, nearby resources within the claim block. These
activities included mapping, drilling, regional geochemistry and geophysics at the COU, Sun,
Dead Creek and Red prospects. This work was undertaken to expand the resource potential and
to better understand the Project area. This exploration effort was focused both northwest and

southeast of the Project, along structure, and covering approximately 18km. Drilling targets are
chosen based on a combination of geophysics, geochemistry and mapping information.
Exploration activities at Arctic have been performed within industry standards using appropriate
models and techniques for a VMS target. SRK agrees with the techniques used at this project.
Conclusions
The Arctic deposit is a high-grade, volcanic massive sulfide deposit with excellent potential but
logistical challenges.
The following presents the interpretations and conclusions of this Technical Report:
• Geology;
o Geologic interpretations by NovaGold geologists show a complexly folded and
potentially faulted deposit. Based on the widely spaced data available, the current
resource model omits these complexities due to lack of correlatable data.
However, volumetrically this resource estimate should be representative based on
the available samples. The resource estimate has been completed based on
industry standards for this type of deposit with this level of sample spacing.
• Resource;
o The mineral resources have been classified using logic consistent with the CIM
definitions incorporated in NI 43-101. The mineralization of the Project satisfies
sufficient criteria to be classified into Indicated and Inferred resource categories,
and
o Further exploration is required to upgrade the resources thus far identified.
Recommendations
The findings of this Technical Report provide compelling arguments to advance the evaluation
of the Project to the pre-feasibility stage.
Additional activities in support of a pre-feasibility assessment include the following, together
with indicative costs:
• Environmental Assessment US$500,000
• Exploration and Drilling US$2,000,000
• Metallurgical Testwork US$400,000
• Pre-feasibility Report US$200,000
Given the amount of work performed on the project, additional activities are required to confirm
previous work and further define the development scheme.

2 Property Description and Location (Item 6)


2.1 Property Location
The Project is located in the Ambler District (Figure 2-1), in the southern Brooks Range of
northwestern Alaska at geographic coordinates N67.17º latitude and W156.38º longitude. Work
is performed at the site using Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) North American Datum
(NAD) 1927 Zone 4. The center of the Project area is 263km east of the town of Kotzebue,
29km north of the village of Kobuk, 260km west of the Dalton Highway and 480km northwest
of Fairbanks. The current size of the property is approximately 65km long x 8km wide and
comprises a total of 36,750ha.
2.2 Mineral Tenure
The Project land tenure consists of 1,230 contiguous claims, including 789 40-acre State claims,
347 160-acre State claims, 79 40-acre State select claims, 15 20-acre Federal claims, and 272
acres of Federal patented land. These claims are shown in Figures 2-2 and 2-3 and are listed in
Appendix B. These claims are listed and recorded in acres since this is the unit of land measure
in the United States of America. Twenty acres is equivalent to 8ha, 40 acres is equivalent to
16ha and 160 acres is equivalent to 65ha. The Federal patented claim corners at the Project were
located by U.S. Government Surveys (USGS). NovaGold has used some of these points along
with USGS benchmarks to survey drill collars in the district with an Ashtech ProMark2 Global
Positioning System (GPS) unit. A third-party survey of drill collars has not been performed on
the property. Rent for each claim is paid annually to the Alaska Department of Natural
Resources. The Project is located near the southern edge of the center of the claim block.
Mineralization is interpreted to extend west and east and potentially north of the project area and
is covered by claims in these directions.
In 1971, the United States Congress passed the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA)
which settled land and financial claims made by the Alaska Natives and provided for the
establishment of 13 regional corporations to administer those claims. These are known as the
Alaska Native Regional Corporations (ANCSA Corporations). One of these 13 regional
corporations is Northwest Alaskan Native Association (NANA) Regional Corporation. Lands
controlled by NANA bound the southern border of the claim block. In addition, the northern
property border is within 25km of National Park lands.
The Ambler District contains many mineralized prospects and two known significant deposits, in
addition to the Project. The first prospect, located west of the Project, is the Smucker deposit.
Smucker is owned by Teck Cominco Limited (Teck Cominco) and is currently in target
delineation. The second prospect, the Sun deposit, is owned by Andover Ventures Inc.
(Andover) and is in the process of resource definition. These two prospects are shown in Figure

2.2.1 Agreements
Kennecott Exploration Company, Kennecott Arctic Company (collectively Kennecott) and
Alaska Gold Company are parties to a joint venture agreement on the Project effective March 23,

SRK Consulting (US), Inc. February 12, 2008

NovaGold Resources Inc. 2-2
Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

2004. In this agreement, NovaGold may earn up to 51% in the Project subject to the completion
by NovaGold of the following:
• Performance of certain environmental mitigation efforts within the Ambler District;
• Execution of exploration programs resulting in expenditures of at least US$5,000,000
over the first five years of the Project;
• Delivery to Kennecott by March 23, 2016 of a Pre-Feasibility Study with a positive rate
of return using a discount rate of 10%;
• Obtainment of an executed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with critical Alaskan
stakeholder groups; and
• Expenditures in total of US$20,000,000 prior to March 23, 2016 over a 12-year period.
As of August 2007, NovaGold had achieved the first two requirements of the joint venture
agreement. Exploration programs in excess of the minimum requirement have been completed,
and NovaGold has addressed identified environmental concerns associated with the former
Kennecott-operated Arctic camp, the Arctic airstrip and the Picnic Creek campsite.
To the extent that portions of the Project lands are situated on or proximal to lands owned by
Native Alaskan corporations or village groups and/or activities associated with possible mining
(e.g., transportation, etc.) which have the potential to effect these stakeholder groups lands or
subsistence areas, the Project proponent will be required to establish a MOU with these groups
that defines the components of the operation and how it will interact with interests of these
groups.
NovaGold is manager of the project through to the completion of a final feasibility study, at
which time Kennecott has a one-time option to acquire an extra 2% interest in the project from
NovaGold and assume the management of construction and operation of the mine by making a
one-time payment to NovaGold equivalent to 4% of the project's net present value.
2.3 Environmental Liabilities
To date, the Ambler District has been the subject of various early stage exploration programs.
However, there has been no actual mine development or production within the Project area
boundaries, and no evidence of mine workings or mill tailings is present on the property.
In conjunction with the fulfillment of one of the requirements of the aforementioned joint
venture agreement, NovaGold (in 2004) completed certain environmental mitigation programs to
include removal of materials and debris associated with historical exploration activities within
the Ambler District. The joint venture agreement indemnifies NovaGold with respect to any pre-
existing Kennecott or Bear Creek Mining Company (BCMC) environmental liabilities present
prior to execution of the agreement. In addition, there are no indications of any known
environmental impairment or enforcement actions associated with NovaGold’s activities to date.
As a result, NovaGold has not incurred any outstanding environmental liabilities in conjunction
with its entry into the joint venture agreement. Thus, further development of the Project would
not be burdened with any legacy of environmental issues. Prior to approximately 1987, BCMC
was the exploration subsidiary of Kennecott.

2.4 Permits
Various permits are required during the exploration phase of the Project. The permit for
exploration on the property, the State of Alaska Annual Hardrock Exploration Permit, is initially
obtained and thereafter renewed annually through the Alaska Department of Natural Resources –
State Division of Mining, Land and Water (Alaska DNR). NovaGold holds a current exploration
permit in good standing with the Alaska DNR, and has done so each year since 2004. In
addition, since the property is situated within the Northwest Arctic Borough, a Title 9 permit is
required for transportation of personnel by air over Borough lands. NovaGold held this permit in
good standing during the 2004, 2005, and 2006 seasons and renewed this permit for the 2007
exploration season.
A number of statutory reporting and payments are required to maintain the claims in good
standing on an annual basis. Additional permits will be necessary to carry out environmental
baseline studies and detailed engineering studies as the Project moves closer to development.
The Project will require multiple permits from regulatory agencies and other entities at the
Federal, State and local (Borough) levels. Due to the preliminary stages of this Project, it is
difficult to assess what specific permitting requirements will ultimately apply to the Project.

3 Accessibility, Climate, Local Resources,


Infrastructure and Physiography (Item 7)
3.1 Access to Property
There is no developed surface access to the Project area. Primary access is by air using both
fixed wing aircraft and helicopters. There are four well maintained, approximately 1,500m-long
gravel airstrips capable of accommodating charter aircraft. These airstrips are located 66km west
at Ambler, 46km southwest at Shungnak, 36km southwest at Kobuk and 32km southwest at Dahl
Creek (Figure 3-1). Smaller and lesser-maintained dirt airstrips include the 700m-long Bornite
airstrip 27km southwest of the Project and the 518m-long Arctic airstrip located 13km southwest
at the abandoned Shungnak River Camp in the Ambler Lowlands. From these points of fixed
wing access, helicopter use is required to access the Project site and transport personnel,
equipment and supplies. A one-lane dirt track (Figure 3-2) suitable for high-clearance vehicles
or construction equipment links the project site to the Shungnak River Camp and the Arctic
airstrip.
River access to Ambler, Shungnak and Kobuk by barge is occasionally possible via the Kobuk
River from Kotzebue Sound via Hotham Inlet (Figure 2-1). High water during seasonal runoff is
necessary for successful navigation of this route since the Kobuk River is commonly shallow and
impassible upstream of the village of Ambler.
The center of the Project area is 263km east of the town of Kotzebue, 36km northeast of the
village of Kobuk, 260km west of the Dalton Highway, and 480km northwest of Fairbanks. All
distances are direct by air. The current size of the property is approximately 65km long x 8km
wide and comprises a total of 36,750ha. The village of Kobuk, population 111 (2003) is located
36km away and is accessible by fixed wing aircraft.
3.2 Climate
The climate in the Ambler District is typical of a sub-arctic environment. The exploration season
for the Project is from late May until late September. Weather conditions change suddenly
during the field season and can vary significantly from year to year. During this time period
average high temperatures range from 4 to 18°C, while average lows range from -2 to 10°C.
Record high and low temperatures during these months are 29 and -17°C, respectively.
Extended sunlight in late May and early June accelerates melting of the winter snow pack on the
property. By late September or early October, poor weather prohibits safe helicopter travel to
the property. Heavy rains and snow are also possible in August. The winter months are long and
cold as the property is blanketed by snow and ice. During this time, snow cover allows for
increased access to the property by snow machine, track vehicle or by fixed wing aircraft.
Winter temperatures are routinely below -28°C and can exceed -51°C. Annual precipitation in
the region is 546.1mm with the most rainfall occurring from July through October and the most
snowfall occurring from December through April (Alaska Climate Summaries, 2007).
3.3 Physiography
The Project is located along the south side of the Brooks Range, one of the longest mountain
ranges in Alaska. The Brooks Range separates the Arctic region from the Alaskan interior
(Climate of Alaska, 2007). The Project is located on the east side of Subarctic Creek straddling a

Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

970m ridge between Subarctic Creek and the Kogoluktuk River Valley. Subarctic Creek is a
tributary of the Shungnak River. The Project area is marked by steep and rugged terrain.
Elevations range from 30m above mean sea level (amsl) at Ambler, Alaska along the Kobuk
River to 1,180m amsl on the peak immediately north of the project area. The divide between the
Shungnak and Kogoluktuk Rivers in the Ambler Lowlands is just 220m amsl.
Nearby surface water includes Subarctic Creek, both the Shungnak and Kogoluktuk Rivers, the
Kobuk River, and numerous small lakes.
The Kobuk Valley marks the transition zone between boreal forest and arctic tundra. The area is
near the northern limit for trees. Spruce, birch and poplar can be found in better drained portions
of the valley, with lichen and moss covering the ground. Willow and alder thickets as well as
isolated cottonwoods follow drainages, and alpine tundra is found on the higher slopes and
ridges. Tussock tundra and low, heath-type vegetation covers most of the flat floor of the valley
(Kobuk Valley National Park, 2007).
Permafrost is a layer of soil at variable depths beneath the surface where the temperature has
been below freezing continuously from a few to several thousand years. Permafrost exists where
summer heating fails to penetrate to the base of the layer of frozen ground and occurs in most of
the northern third of Alaska as well as in discontinuous or isolated patches in the central portion
of the State (Climate of Alaska, 2007).
3.4 Infrastructure
Because of the remote location of the Project, infrastructure, specifically transport of material
and personnel to and from the Project and power, are the largest cost items. There is no
developed surface access to the Project area and no power infrastructure near the Project area.
3.4.1 Camp Facilities and Airstrip
Drilling and mapping programs are seasonal and have been supported out of the Bornite camp
and Arctic airstrip. The Bornite camp, a permanent facility, and the Arctic airstrip are both
located in the Ambler Lowlands and owned by NANA. NovaGold leases the facilities from
NANA.
3.5 Support Labor
The local workforce of the region could potentially be a substantial source of personnel. In
2006, NovaGold hired local residents from Kobuk, Shungnak and Ambler to work on the Ambler
exploration project. Employees were hired through NANA Management Services employee
leasing, a division of NANA management. NovaGold employed more than 15 local residents on
the Project, including one senior field coordinator, six geotechnicians, two cook’s assistants, two
core splitters and four driller helpers.

4 History (Item 8)
Prospectors came up the Kobuk River into the Ambler Lowlands and parts of the Brooks Range
around 1900. Several small gold placer deposits in the Cosmos Hills were discovered and
worked intermittently. A second wave of prospectors returned to the region after World War II
looking for gold, uranium and copper. Copper mineralization was observed at Ruby Creek in
1905, but not much work occurred there until its rediscovery by Rhinehart Berg in the 1940s. By
1957, Berg exposed significant amounts of high-grade copper mineralization. At this time
BCMC, the exploration subsidiary of Kennecott, optioned Ruby Creek from Mr. Berg
(Kennecott, 1977, Hitzman et al., 1986). The project came to be known as Bornite. Kennecott
later began underground development at Bornite, but an attempt to mine the discovery was short
lived (Dodd et al., 2005).
The following is excerpted from the Alaska Gold Company’s Ambler Project (1816) 2004
Summary Report and has been standardized to this document.
BCMC conducted regional exploration of the Cosmos Hills and the southern Brooks Range
while drilling extensively at Ruby Creek. Stream silts sampling in 1963 revealed a 1,400ppm Cu
anomaly in Arctic Creek. This anomaly contributed to discoveries of massive sulfide at Arctic
and Dead Creeks in 1965 (Kennecott, 1977; Hitzman et al., 1986). In 1967, eight core holes
were drilled at Arctic Creek yielding impressive massive sulfide intercepts over a strike length of
460m. This successful program resulted in the continuation of drilling over the next several
seasons at the Project. In 1966 and 1967, BCMC drilled eight core holes at Dead Creek, also
intercepting massive sulfide. Structural complexities at Dead Creek hindered progress and
BCMC focused on the Arctic Creek area. BCMC intermittently conducted exploration programs
on the Project from August 1967 to 1998. Over that span, 92 holes were drilled at the Project,
including 14 large diameter metallurgical holes, totaling 17,572m. No drilling or additional
exploration on the Project was conducted between 1998 and 2004.
In addition to drilling on the Project, BCMC continued their exploration of other prospects in the
Ambler District. Competing companies, including Sunshine Mining Company, Anaconda,
Noranda, Teck Cominco, Resource Associates of Alaska (RAA), Watts, Griffis and McOuat Ltd.
(WGM), and Houston Oil and Minerals Company, entered into a claim staking war in the district
in the early 1970s. District exploration by Sunshine Mining Company and others resulted in two
substantial discoveries at the Sun Prospect located 60km east of the Project and the Smucker
Prospect located 40km west of the Project. District exploration continued until the early 1980s
on the four larger deposits (the Project, Ruby Creek, Smucker and Sun) as well as many lesser-
defined prospects within the district, including Sunshine Creek, CS, Bud, Horse Creek, Cliff,
Dead Creek, Kogo, Red, BT and Tom Tom. No production has occurred at the Project.
In 1993, Kennecott Minerals, the successor of BCMC, began to re-evaluate the Project. This
included a review of the deposit geology and the assembly of a computer database. A new
computer-generated block model was constructed in 1990 and an updated resource was estimated
from the block model. The result was an internal historical estimate of an inferred resource of
36.3Mt averaging 4.0% Cu, 5.5% Zn, 0.8% Pb, 54.9g/t-Ag and 0.7g/t-Au. Although believed by
NovaGold management to have been relevant and reliable, this historical resource estimate pre-
dates the development of NI 43-101 reporting guidelines, was not estimated in compliance with
NI 43-101 procedures and should not be relied on.

4.1 Historical Testwork


The first three test campaigns performed on the Project ores were conducted at the Kennecott
Research Center between 1968 and 1976. The focus was on selective flotation to provide
separate copper, lead and zinc concentrates for conventional smelting.
The initial amenability testing was carried out in 1968 on individual samples and their
composites made from cores from eight diamond drillholes. Core drilled prior to 1998 was
drilled using NQ- and BQ-sized strings. An additional four samples were obtained from three
holes and tested in 1972. Laboratory scale bench tests included a conventional selective flotation
approach to produce three separate (copper, lead and zinc) concentrates. The major problems
encountered were:
• Difficult copper-lead separation, and
• Zinc deportment to the copper and the lead concentrates.
The highest-grade copper concentrate contained over 30% Cu, 2 to 3% Zn and less than 1% Pb,
but at a low copper recovery of less than 80%. The lead concentrate was low-grade 17 to 36%
Pb and assayed 5 to 25% Cu. The subsequent sphalerite flotation was generally efficient. The
zinc concentrate grade was 55% and the zinc recovery up to 70%, depending on how much zinc
floated in the preceding copper and lead flotation. Silver generally followed galena.
During 1975, large diameter cores from 14 drillholes were used for more detailed testing to
develop the concentrator flowsheet and process parameters. Two composites were prepared:
No.1 (Eastern zone) and No.2 (Western zone). Most of the test work was conducted on the
composite No.1, which represented 75% of the resources. The test program included
mineralogical examinations, bench scale testing of various process parameters for each selective
flotation step and locked cycle tests. Complete analyses were done on a number of concentrates
to identify potential impurities. Preliminary tests for bulk flotation of all sulfides were also
carried out.
Historical testing showed that a clear separation of various sulfide minerals is difficult because of
fine interlocking of mineral grains. It showed that the economically most important minerals,
chalcopyrite and sphalerite, could be recovered into selective copper and zinc concentrates with
commercial concentrate grades and good recoveries. Lead and precious metals easily reported to
the copper concentrate. The production of a selective high-grade lead concentrate was not
successful. Only a low-grade, silver-bearing lead concentrate (17 to 36% Pb) was obtained,
containing high amounts of iron, copper and zinc. Generally, the copper concentrate grade and
recovery depended on the amounts of lead and zinc prevented from floating during copper
flotation and cleaning. Production of two selective copper and zinc concentrates could be
confidently projected, although additional testing would be required to optimize the flow sheet
and all process parameters.
Testing indicated that the talc contained in the ore would have to be floated before selective
flotation of sulfide minerals. The losses of base and precious metals to the talc concentrate were
satisfactory and below 1% each.
Silver was mainly associated with galena. The highest silver recovery to copper concentrate was
achieved when lead was recovered as well. If galena was rejected from the copper concentrate,

Ambler Project.NI 43-101 Resource Report.168401.KG.009.doc
NovaGold Resources Inc. 4-3
Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

20 to 40% of the silver, associated with tetrahedrite and tennantite, remained in the copper
concentrate.
Gold assaying was very sporadic during the three test campaigns and was not provided. It was
noted, however, that at least 70% of the gold reported to the copper concentrate, although not
enough testing was performed to predict gold recovery.
4.1.1 1995 Testwork
The 1976 conceptual study for the selection of the metallurgical process for the Project
established that the Kennecott Sulfite Process (KSP) could be developed as an economic hydro
metallurgical alternative to smelting. Bulk concentrate could be amenable for processing with
this novel technology.
Metallurgical testing was carried out at Hazen Research in 1995 to:
• Produce bulk concentrate for amenability testing;
• Determine technical viability of the key KSP process steps for processing of the Project
bulk concentrate; and
• Optimize flow sheet and parameters for selective flotation, especially to improve
selectivity among copper, lead, zinc and pyrite and obtain additional data on gold
recovery.
Samples used in the 1995 testwork were minus 10 mesh core rejects from the 1975 drilling, kept
in storage since the 1976 testing. A composite No.lA was prepared, similar in composition to the
1976 composite No.1 using the samples from the same holes. Investigations at Hazen Research
confirmed similar mineralogy for the 1976 and 1995 composites.
Initial selective flotation testing failed to reproduce the results obtained during the 1976 testing
under the same process conditions. The surface deterioration of the samples during the long
storage significantly affected the selectivity of the sulfide minerals and their separation into
specific concentrates, even if the total recoveries to all concentrates had not been reduced.
Further attempts to conduct testing to optimize selective flotation under those conditions were
abandoned.
Bulk flotation was not significantly affected by deterioration of samples during storage. The
bulk concentrate produced at Hazen Research contained 10.4% Cu, 2.2% Pb and 15.0% Zn and
recovered 94% Cu, 92% Pb, 97% Zn, 87% Au and 95% Ag. Only the recovery of lead was
slightly lower than obtained during earlier tests.
The testing of the key KSP process steps (roasting, leaching and copper reduction) did not
demonstrate a “fatal flaw” and confirmed the technical viability of the concept. However, a
more complex approach was indicated for zinc recovery from the bulk concentrate when
compared to the lower zinc grade of the copper concentrate considered in the 1976 study. In
addition, precious metals recoveries by cyanidation of the residue were disappointing and the
potential recovery of lead from bulk concentrate in the commercial product was not attempted.
Substantial development work is still required to define each KSP process step and determine its
design parameters, as well as to demonstrate the integrated process on a scale sufficient for a
meaningful evaluation. The same applies to the emerging chloride-based Intec Ltd. copper
process currently being developed for hydrometallurgical treatment of copper concentrates under

the Rio Tinto-Zinc Corporation participation in the sponsorship. Therefore, these


hydrometallurgical options for processing bulk concentrate were not considered for this
evaluation as alternatives to conventional smelting.
The optimization and further development of the flow sheet and process conditions for selective
flotation at Hazen Research in 1995 was prevented by surface deterioration of the available
samples. The test results from the 1968–1976 test work at the KRC were used for flow sheet
development in this evaluation.
The selected process is conventional selective flotation to produce separate copper and zinc
concentrates for shipment to existing smelters for treatment. Most of the lead and precious
metals would report to the copper concentrate.
4.1.2 Historical Exploration
Exploration on the Project has been intermittent since the discovery of Arctic in 1965. Arctic
was discovered during a routine follow up on a copper anomaly identified from a 1963 regional
geochemical survey performed by BCMC. In 1965, BCMC geologists discovered sulfide
minerals in an outcrop on Arctic Ridge while performing a follow-up investigation of a
1,400ppm Cu geochemical anomaly from sampling completed during a 1963 regional
exploration program. This regional exploration program covered the Cosmos Hills and much of
the southern Brook Range and included reconnaissance geological mapping and stream sediment
sampling.
Since 1965, the project has undergone many different periods of exploration activity under two
operators: Kennecott or its subsidiaries and NovaGold. Inaccessibility of the Ambler District,
along with depressed metals prices, caused interest in the district to wane, and significant
exploration in the Ambler District ended in 1985. Kennecott sold Bornite to NANA in 1986.
Lack of road or rail access to the area has hindered development within the Ambler District.
In 1993, Kennecott began a re-evaluation of the Arctic deposit. This included a review of the
deposit geology and the assembly of a computer database. A new computer-generated block
model was constructed in 1995 and an updated resource was calculated from the block model.
The resulting estimated inferred resource totaled 36.3Mt averaging 4.0% Cu, 5.5% Zn, 0.8% Pb,
54.9g/t Ag and 0.7g/t Au. Although believed by NovaGold management to have been relevant
and reliable, this historical resource estimate pre-dates the development of NI 43-101 reporting
guidelines, was not estimated in compliance with NI 43-101 procedures and should not be relied
on.
In September 1997, Kennecott located a total of 2,035 State mining claims covering most of the
known Ambler schist belt. More drilling was performed and, in 1998, an updated resource
estimate was completed using the 1995 model. Economic studies, based on the latest resource
estimate, failed to produce a positive net present value (NPV) and the project was suspended.
No additional exploration on the Project was conducted between 1998 and 2004.
Kennecott reduced its land position in the southern Brooks Range to 829 State of Alaska claims.
In addition to the State claims, Kennecott maintains 15 unpatented Federal mining claims
surrounding 18 private patented claims.

4.2 Historical Drilling


Between 1967 to July 1985, 86 holes were drilled (including 14 large diameter metallurgical test
holes) totaling 16,080m. In 1998, Kennecott drilled six core holes totaling 1,492m in the Arctic
deposit to test for extensions of the known resource, and to test for grade and thickness
continuity. Drilling for all BCMC/Kennecott campaigns in the Arctic deposit area (1966–1998)
totals 92 core holes for a combined 17,572m.
No drilling was performed on the project between 1998 and 2003. NovaGold took control of the
Project in 2004. The 2004–2006 drill programs conducted by NovaGold are described in Section
9, Drilling.
4.3 Historical Geophysics
In 1998, an airborne geophysical survey of the entire claim block generated numerous
electromagnetic anomalies. Additional geophysical surveys have been performed by NovaGold
and will be discussed in Section 8, Exploration.
4.4 Historical Resource Estimates
A resource estimate was performed on Arctic by Kennecott based on 70 holes. This resource
estimate was performed in 1990 and is summarized in Table 4.4.1. This estimate is considered
to be that of an inferred resource. Although believed by NovaGold management to be relevant
and reliable, this historical resource estimate pre-dates the development of NI 43-101 reporting
guidelines, was not estimated in compliance with NI 43-101 procedures and should not be relied
on (Randolf, 1990).

5 Geologic Setting (Item 9)


5.1 Regional Geology
The Ambler District occurs within an east–west trending zone of Devonian to Jurassic age
submarine volcanic and sedimentary rocks (Hitzman et al., 1986). VMS deposits and prospects
are hosted in the Middle Devonian to Early Mississippian age Ambler Sequence, a group of
metamorphosed bimodal volcanic rocks with interbedded tuffaceous, graphitic and calcareous
volcanoclastic metasediments. The Ambler Sequence occurs in the upper part of the Anirak
Schist, the thickest member of the Coldfoot subterrane (Moore et al., 1994). VMS
mineralization can be found along the entire 110km strike length of the district. Hitzman notes
that the 1,980m-thick Devonian age section of the Cosmos Hills, which includes the 915m-thick
Bornite Carbonate Sequence, is equivalent in age to the Anirak Schist and was mineralized
during the Ambler mineralizing event.
The Ambler District is characterized by a series of east–west trending belts of rocks of increasing
metamorphic grade northward across the strike of the units. The structure of the district is
isoclinally folded in the northern area and thrust faulted in the southern half (Schmidt, 1983).
The Devonian to Mississippian age Angayucham basalt and the Triassic to Jurassic age mafic
volcanic rocks are in low-angle thrust contact with various units of the Coldfoot subterrane along
the northern edge of the Ambler Lowlands.
5.1.1 Terrane Descriptions
The terminology of terranes in southern Brooks Range evolved during the 1980s because of the
region’s complex juxtaposition of rocks of various composition, age and metamorphic grade.
Hitzman et al. (1986) divided the Ambler District into the Ambler and Angayucham terranes.
Slightly more recent work (Till et al., 1988; Silberling et al., 1992; Moore et al., 1994) includes
the rocks of the previously defined Ambler terrane as part of the regionally extensive Schist belt
or Coldfoot subterrane along the southern flank of the Arctic Alaska terrane (Figure 5-1) (Moore
et al., 1994), which is the usage in this report. In general, the southern Brooks Range is
composed of east–west trending structurally bound allochthons of variable metasedimentary and
volcanogenic Paleozoic age rocks.
The Angayucham terrane, which lies along southern margin of the Brooks Range, is locally
preserved as a klippen within the eastern Cosmos Hills and is composed of weakly
metamorphosed to unmetamorphosed massive-to-pillowed basalt rocks with minor radiolarian
cherts, marble lenses and isolated ultramafic rocks (Figure 5-2). This package of Devonian to
Late Triassic age (Plafker and others, 1977) mafic and ultramafic rocks is interpreted to represent
portions of an obducted and structurally dismembered ophiolite that formed in an ocean basin
south of the present day Brooks Range (Hitzman et al., 1986; Gottschalk and Oldow, 1988).
Locally, the Angayucham terrane overlies the Schist belt to the north along a poorly exposed
south-dipping structure.
Gottschalk and Oldow (1988) describe the schist belt as a composite of structurally bound
packages composed of dominantly greenschist facies tectonite rocks, including pelitic to semi-
pelitic quartz-mica schist with associated mafic schists, metagabbro and marbles. Locally, the
schist belt includes the middle Devonian age Bornite carbonate sequence, the lower Paleozoic
age Anirak pelitic, variably siliceous and graphic schists, and the mineralized Devonian age
Ambler sequence consisting of volcanogenic and siliciclastic rocks variably associated with

marbles, calc-schists, metabasites and mafic schists (Figure 5-2) (Hitzman et al., 1982; Hitzman
et al., 1986). The lithologic assemblage of the schist belt is consistent with an extensional,
epicontinental tectonic origin.
Structurally overlaying the schist belt to the north is the Central belt. The Central belt is in
unconformable contact with the schist belt along a north-dipping low-angle structure (Till et al.,
1988). The Central belt consists of lower Paleozoic age metaclastic and carbonate rocks, and
Proterozoic age schists (Dillon et al., 1980). Both the Central belt and Schist belt are intruded by
meta-to-peraluminous orthogneisses, which locally yield a slightly discordant U-Pb-TIMS zircon
crystallization age of middle to late Devonian (Dillon et al., 1980; Dillon et al., 1987). This
igneous protolith age is supported by Devonian orthogniess ages obtained along the Dalton
Highway, 161km to the east of the Ambler District (Aleinikoff et al., 1993).
5.1.2 Regional Tectonic Setting
Rocks exposed along the southern Brooks Range consist of structurally bound, and possibly far
traveled, imbricate allochthons that have experienced an intense and complex history of
deformation and metamorphism. Shortening in the fold and thrust belt has been estimated to
exceed 500km (Oldow et al., 1987) based on balanced cross sections across the central Brooks
Range. In general, the metamorphic grade and tectonism in the Brooks Range increases to the
south and is greatest in the schist belt. The tectonic character and metamorphic grade decreases
south of the schist belt in the overlaying Angayucham terrane.
In the late Jurassic to early Cretaceous age, the Schist belt experienced penetrative thrust-related
deformation accompanied by recrystallization under high-pressure and low-temperature
metamorphic conditions (Till et al., 1988). These north-directed compressional tectonics were
likely related to crustal thickening caused by obduction of the Angayucham ophiolitic section
over a south-facing passive margin. Thermobarometry of schists from the structurally deepest
section of the northern schist belt yield relict metamorphic temperatures of 475 ± 35°C and
pressures from 7.6 to 9.8kbar (Gottschalk and Oldow, 1988). Metamorphism in the schist belt
grades from lowest greenschist facies in the southern Cosmos Hills to upper greenschist, locally
overprinting blueschist mineral assembles in the northern belt (Hitzman et al., 1986).
Compressional tectonics, which typically place older rocks on younger, do not adequately
explain the relationship of young, low-metamorphic-grade over older and higher-grade
metamorphic rocks observed in the southern Brooks Range hinterland. Mull (1982) interpreted
the schist belt as a late antiformal uplift of the basement to the fold and thrust belt. More recent
models propose that the uplift of the structurally deep schist belt occurred along duplexed, north-
directed, thin-skinned thrust faults, followed by post compressional south-dipping low angle
normal faults along the south flank of the schist belt, accommodating for an over-steepened
imbricate thrust stack (Figure 5-3) (Gottschalk and Oldow, 1988; Moore et al., 1994). Rapid
cooling and exhumation of the schist belt began at the end of the early Cretaceous age at 105 to
103Ma, based on Ar40/Ar39 cooling ages of hornblende and white mica near Mt Igikpak, and
lasted only a few million years (Vogl et al., 2002). Additional post extension compressive events
during the Paleocene age further complicate the southern Brooks Range (Mull, 1985).
5.2 District/Property Geology
Rocks that form the Ambler schist belt consist of a lithologically diverse sequence of lower
Paleozoic possibly Devonian age carbonate and siliciclastic strata with interlayered mafic lava

flows and sills. The clastic strata, derived from terrigenous continental and volcanic sources,
were deposited primarily by mass-gravity flow into the sub-wavebase environment of an
extending marginal basin.
NovaGold’s work shows that the Ambler sequence underwent two periods of intense, penetrative
deformation. Sustained upper greenschist-facies metamorphism with coincident formation of a
penetrative schistosity and isoclinal transposition of bedding marks the first deformation period.
Pervasive similar-style folds on all scales deform the transposed bedding and schistosity,
defining the second event. At least two later non-penetrative compressional events deform these
earlier fabrics. NovaGold’s observations of the structural and metamorphic history of the
Ambler District are consistent with current tectonic evolution models for the schist belt, based on
the work of others elsewhere in southern Brooks Range (Gottschalk and Oldow, 1988; Till et al.,
1988; Vogl et al., 2002).
5.2.1 General Description of the Stratigraphy of the District
The local base of the Ambler section consists of variably metamorphosed carbonates historically
referred to as the Gnurgle Gneiss. NovaGold interprets these strata as calc-turbidites, perhaps
deposited in a sub-wavebase environment adjacent to a carbonate bank. Calcareous schists
overlie the Gnurgle Gneiss and host sporadically distributed mafic sills and pillowed lavas.
These fine-grained clastic strata indicate a progressively quieter depositional environment up
section, and the presence of pillowed lavas indicates a rifting, basinal environment. The
overlying Arctic-sulfide host section consists mostly of fine-grained carbonaceous siliciclastics
and indicates further isolation from a terrigenous source terrain. The section above the Arctic
host contains voluminous reworked silicic volcanic strata with the Button Schist at its base. The
paucity of volcanically derived strata below the Arctic host section and abundance above
indicates that the basin and surrounding hinterlands underwent major tectonic reorganization
during deposition of the Arctic section. Greywacke sands that NovaGold interpret as channeled
high-energy turbidites occur throughout the section but concentrate high in the local stratigraphy.
Several rock units show substantial change in thickness and distribution between the Arctic
Ridge, geographically above the Arctic deposit, and the Riley Ridge to the west. This
distribution shows patterns that may have resulted from structural controls imposed on the basin
during initial deposition:
• The Gnurgle Gneiss is thickest in exposures along the northern extension of Arctic Ridge
and appears to thin to the west;
• Mafic lavas and sills thicken from east to west. They show thick occurrences in upper
Subarctic Creek and to the west, but are sparsely distributed to the east;
• The quartzite section within and above the Arctic sulfide does not occur in abundance
east of Arctic Ridge; it is thicker and occurs voluminously to the west;
• Button Schist thickens dramatically to the west from exposures on Arctic Ridge;
exposures to the east are virtually nonexistent; and
• Greywacke sands do not exist east of Subarctic Creek but occur in abundance as massive,
channeled accumulations to the west, centered on Riley Ridge.
These data are interpreted by NovaGold to define a generally north–northwest-trending
depocenter through the central Ambler District. Diamictite occurrences described below in

Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

concert with these formational changes suggest that the depocenter had a fault-controlled eastern
margin. The basin deepened to the west; the Riley Ridge section deposited along a high-energy
axis, and the Center of the Universe (COU) section lies distally from a depositional energy point
of view. This original basin architecture appears to have controlled mineralization of the sulfide
systems at Arctic and Dead Creeks, concentrating fluid flow along the extensional structures in
the eastern basin margin. Deposit and district geology is shown in Figure 5-4.
5.3 Deposit Geology
Russell (1995) and Schmidt (1983) describe three mineralized horizons that comprise the
Project: the Main Sulfide Horizon, the Upper South Horizon and the Warm Springs Horizon.
The Main Sulfide Horizon was further subdivided into three zones: the southeast zone, the
central zone and the northwest zone. Previous deposit modeling was grade-based resulting in
numerous individual “ore zones” representing relatively thin sulfide horizons.
Work from the 2004 campaign suggests that mineralization at the Project can be explained using
two locally folded and refolded mineralized horizons. The primary exception is in the area of
Warm Springs and east of Warm Springs where mineralization occurs stratigraphically higher
than anticipated using this model. Thrust faulting may have an effect on ore horizon geometry in
this area.
5.3.1 Local Lithology
Five lithologic groups and/or types described by URSA Engineering (1998) and Russell (1995)
and found within the Project area include:
• Metarhyolite: Includes the Button Schist, which is described as a porphyroblastic quartz
feldspar porphyry. It also includes a variety of less porphyroblastic felsic schists
considered to be metamorphosed rhyolitic volcaniclastic and tuffaceous rocks. Members
of this group occur both stratigraphically above and below the main mineralized sequence
at the Project. These units have been interpreted as separate metavolcanics, though
similarities occur between the basal Button Schist and the uppermost units described by
Schmidt (1983);
• Quartz Mica Schist: Locally contains varying proportions of carbonate, chlorite, graphite
and feldspar. Protolith for these rocks may have been tuffaceous sediments,
volcaniclastics and dirty carbonates;
• Talc Schist: Highly talc chlorite altered products of metavolcanic or graphitic schist units
with talc in excess of 30%. Original texture often destroyed by alteration;
• Graphitic Schist: Dark grey to black, fissile, well-foliated quartz-banded schist found
throughout the deposit; and
• Base-Metal, Sulfide-Bearing Schist: This is the ore-bearing lithology at the Project.
These contain highly-altered schists containing varying amounts of talc, chlorite, barite,
quartz, muscovite, carbonate and massive, relatively non-schistose zones.
Studies in 2004 suggest the base-metal, sulfide-bearing schist is more a product of alteration than
primary lithology and, as a result, should be included in the quartz mica schist group.

NovaGold Resources Inc. 5-5
Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

5.3.2 Alteration
Schmidt (1988) defined three main zones of hydrothermal alteration occurring at the Project as:
• A main chloritic zone occurring within the footwall of the deposit consisting of phengite
and magnesium-chlorite;
• A mixed alteration zone occurring below and lateral to sulfide mineralization consisting of
phengite and phlogopite along with talc, calcite, dolomite and quartz; and
• A pyritic zone overlying the sulfide mineralization.
Portable Infrared Mineral Analyzer (PIMA) data collected from all 2004 and 2005 drillholes and
select pre-2004 holes indicate talc and magnesium chlorite to be the dominant alteration products
associated with the sulfide-bearing horizons. Talc alteration grades outward to mixed talc-
magnesium chlorite with minor phlogopite, into zones of dominantly magnesium chlorite, then
into mixed magnesium chlorite-phengite with outer phengite-albite zones of alteration.
Thickness of alteration zones vary with stratigraphic interpretation, but tens of meters for the
outer zones is likely, as seen in phengite-albite exposures on the east side of Arctic Ridge.
5.4 Structure
Earlier studies (Russell 1977, 1995; Schmidt, 1983) concluded the mineralization at the Project
was part of a normal stratigraphic sequence striking northeast and dipping 10º to 35º southwest.
Structural interpretation concluded that the limits of the upper limb have been fairly well defined
by existing drilling, but mineralization in the lower limbs remain open at depth.
Russell (1995) includes the following discussion on the structural setting surrounding the Arctic
deposit area. “The structural geology of the Ambler District and the Arctic deposit is discussed
in some detail by Hitzman et al. (1986) and Schmidt (1983, 1986). The present east–west trend
of the structural grain in the Ambler District is due to the Jurassic to Cretaceous age Brooks
Range Orogeny. The first deformational episode widely affecting the Ambler Sequence was an
intense, tight to isoclinal, Jurassic(?) age event, which produced the Arctic Synform, an
overturned syncline whose horizontal N70ºW axis lies a short distance north of the Arctic
deposit. The parallel Kalurivik Arch, a relatively broad antiform, is the result of a Middle
Cretaceous structural event that produced more open folds (Schmidt, 1983). Between these two
major structural events were several more localized episodes. Any or all of these structural
events could have had a major impact on the Devonian-age Arctic deposit.” This would suggest
the possibility of a more complex setting at the Project than earlier proposed.
Subsequent reinterpretation by Kennecott in 1998 and 1999 suggests the entire sequence at
Arctic may indeed be overturned. Proffett (1999) reviewed the Arctic geology and suggested a
folded model, indicating potential for continued mineralization at depth associated with the
overturned limb of a large recumbent fold, and proposed the mineralized sequence at the Project
was part of an anticline opening to the east and closing to the west. Proffett’s interpretation is
that this was an F2 fold superimposed on a broad north-trending F1 fabric.
Lindberg (2004) supports a folded model similar to Proffett, though he feels the main fold at the
Project is northwest closing and southeast opening. Lindberg named this feature the Arctic
Antiform, and interpreted this structure to be an F1 fold.
Intrafolial folding occurs throughout the property as documented in several previous reports,
including Russell (1995). Folding is commonly observed in outcrop and drill core, both within

Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

lithologic units and massive sulfide zones. Lindberg believes the majority of folding within the
mineralized horizons occurs in the central part of the deposit within a southwest plunging
“cascade zone.” The increased thicknesses of mineralized intervals in this part of the property
can in part be explained by the multiple folding of two main ore horizons as opposed to
numerous individual mineralized beds as shown in the 1995 geologic model. The cascade zone
appears to be confined to the upper sulfide limbs of the Arctic antiform. An isopach map of the
base of the lower limb sulfide bed shows little to no disruption, indicating a sheet-like
morphology (Dodd et al., 2004). This is in contrast to an isopach map of the top of the upper
limb sulfide bed, which shows a more disrupted surface plane and some indication of possible
thrusting to the South (Dodd et al., 2004).
Drillholes south and east of the Arctic deposit failed to intersect the lower Button Schist where
anticipated. Results of 2006 mapping at Arctic suggest that an F2 fold event may fold the lower
Button Schist back to the north under the deposit in this area (Otto, B.R., 2006). Some deep
drilling in the deposit is necessary to test this concept.
Low-angle thrust faults extending into this area from the south may be responsible for some
displacement observed at the Arctic deposit. Fault zones were observed in this area, but
conclusions are mixed with limited drill data.

6 Deposit Type (Item 10)


The mineralization at the Project and within the Ambler District consists of Devonian age,
polymetallic (Zn-Cu-Pb-Ag) VMS occurrences. VMS deposits are formed by and associated
with sub-marine volcanic-related hydrothermal events. These events are related to spreading
centers such as fore arc, back arc or mid-ocean ridges. VMS deposits are often stratiform
accumulations of sulfide minerals that precipitate from hydrothermal fluids on or below the
seafloor. These deposits are found in association with volcanic, volcaniclastic and/or siliciclastic
rocks. They are classified by their depositional environment and associated proportions of mafic
and/or felsic igneous rocks to sedimentary rocks. There are five general classifications based on
rock type and depositional environment:
• Mafic rock dominated often with ophiolite sequences, often called Cyprus type;
• Bimodal-mafic type with up to 25% felsic volcanic rocks;
• Mafic-siliciclastic type with approximately equal parts mafic and siliclastic rocks, which
can have minor felsic rocks and are often called Beshi type;
• Felsic-siliclastic type with abundant felsic rocks, less than 10% mafic rocks and shale
rich; and
• Bimodal-felsic type where felsic rocks are more abundant than mafic rocks with minor
sedimentary rocks, also termed Kuroko type.
Prior to any subsequent deformation and/or metamorphism, these deposits are often bowl- or
mound-shaped with stockworks and stringers of sulfide minerals found near vent zones. These
types of deposit exhibit an idealized zoning pattern as follows:
• Pyrite and chalcopyrite near vents;
• A halo around the vents consisting of chalcopyrite, sphalerite and pyrite;
• A more distal zone of sphalerite and galena and metals such as manganese; and
• Increasing manganese with oxides such as hematite and chert.
Alteration halos associated with VMS deposits often contain sericite, ankerite, chlorite, hematite
and magnetite close to the VMS with weak sericite, carbonate, zeolite, prehnite and chert more
distal. These alteration assemblages and relationships are dependent on degree of post
deposition deformation and metamorphism. A modern analog of this type of deposit is found
around fumeroles or black smokers in association with rift zones.
In the Ambler District, VMS mineralization occurs along the western schist belt over a strike
length of approximately 100km. These deposits are hosted by a volcanogenic sequence
consisting of volcaniclastic, siliciclastic and calcareous metasedimentary rocks interlayered with
mafic and felsic metavolcanic rocks. Sulfide occurs above the mafic metavolcanic rocks but
below the Button schist, which has been interpreted as a volcaniclastic rock. The presence of the
mafic and felsic metavolcanic units is used as evidence to suggest formation in a rift-related
environment, possibly proximal to a continental margin. A sulfide-smoker occurrence has been
identified near Dead Creek northwest of the Project and suggests local hydrothermal venting
during deposition. However, the lack of stockworks and stringer-type mineralization suggests
that the Project is not a near-vent type VMS. Although this is a stratiform VMS, drill cores from

Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

the 2004 and 2005 drilling programs within the deposit exhibit characteristics and textures
common to replacement-style mineralization, and it is interpreted that at least some of this
mineralization may have formed as diagenetic replacements.
At the Project, sulfides occur as semi-massive (10 to 30% sulfide) to massive (>30% sulfide)
layers, typically dominated by pyrite with substantial disseminated sphalerite and chalcopyrite
and trace amounts of galena. This sulfide accumulation at the Project is thought to be correlative
to those seen at the Dead Creek and Sun deposits. The VMS deposits in the Ambler District are
unusually sheet-like compared with other VMS deposits worldwide. This is likely a result of
attenuation and folding of the section caused by high-pressure deformation during the late
Jurassic to early Cretaceous age Brooks Range orogeny. This structural attenuation as well as
metamorphic recrystallization makes it difficult to interpret the genesis of this deposit. However,
the sulfide formation is not consistent with a specific type of VMS and may be a hybrid style of
mineralization that formed in a magmatically active marginal rift basin.
There is also an occurrence of epithermal discordant vein and fracture hosted base metal (Pb-Zn-
Cu) mineralization identified at the Red prospect in the Kogoluktuk Valley, east of the Project.
This occurrence also contains substantial fluorite veins suggesting high temperature
hydrothermal activity. Although not yet fully understood, the genesis of this occurrence is
considered to be related to the regional system that formed the VMS deposits in the Ambler
District.
Knowledge of the position and genetic relationship within the VMS system is important to
targeting the richest zones. The information collected from mapping, sampling and geophysics
at the Project and regional levels within the Ambler District is being used to define the position
of Arctic relative to an ancient spreading center.
6.1 Exploration Target
While efforts during 2004 and 2005 were directed at drilling and delineating the Project, work in
2006 was focused on exploration for new, nearby resources within the claim block. These
activities included mapping, drilling, regional geochemistry and geophysics at the COU, Sun,
Dead Creek and Red prospects. This work was undertaken to expand the resource potential and
to better understand the Project area. This exploration effort is focused both northwest and
southeast of the Project, along structure, and covering approximately 18km. Drilling targets are
chosen based on a combination of geophysics, geochemistry and mapping information.

7 Mineralization (Item 11)


Mineralization occurs as stratiform semi-massive to massive sulfide beds. The sulfide beds
average 4m thick but vary from less than 1m to 18m thick. The bulk of the mineralization is
within four zones located between two thrust faults, the upper Warm Springs Thrust and the
Lower Thrust. A smaller fifth zone is located below the Lower Thrust. All of these zones are
within an area of roughly 1km2, with average zone length ranging from 600m x 850m and width
ranging from 350m to 700m. Depths of known mineralization extend to approximately 250m
below the surface. Host rocks are primarily graphitic chlorite schists and fine-grained quartz
sandstones.
Marginal to the main deposit, mineralization is locally present as discontinuous thin, “wispy”
sulfide bands. No stockworks or stringers in association with the mineralization have been
observed. These features are common in near-vent VMS deposits. Much of the core from the
2004 and 2005 programs within the deposit exhibits characteristics and textures common to
replacement-style mineralization.
Mineralization is predominately coarse-grained sulfides consisting mainly of chalcopyrite,
sphalerite, galena, pyrite and pyrrhotite, and may or may not include tetrahedrite. Tetrahedrite-
tennantite, electrum and enargite are also present in minor amounts. Pyrite is commonly
associated with the massive sulfide horizons, and pyrrhotite and arsenopyrite are present in lesser
amounts. Gangue minerals associated with the mineralized horizons include quartz, barite, white
mica, black chlorite, calcite, dolomite and cymrite, while talc is common in the footwall.

8 Exploration (Item 12)


Exploration on the Project was intermittent between the discovery of Arctic in 1965 through to
1998. From 1998 until 2003, there was no work performed on the Project. NovaGold entered
into negotiations with Kennecott to explore its Ambler land position in mid 2003. Negotiations
were completed and a joint venture agreement signed on March 23, 2004. Since 2004,
NovaGold has been performing project level and regional mapping, drilling, geophysics and
geochemical surveys.
8.1 Drilling
The 2004 drilling focused on the Project area and was principally designed to verify the grade
and continuity of the mineralized intercepts encountered in the previous drill campaigns. Eleven
holes totaling 2,996m were drilled in potential extensions of mineralization and on an adjacent
geophysical anomaly. During 2005, approximately 3,030m of core drilling was completed, and
in the 2006 field season an additional 3,010m of drilling in 12 drill holes was completed. The
2006 program focused on regional extensions and included drilling at the Dead Creek, Sun, COU
and Red prospects. The drilling was carried out by Boart Longyear, a contract diamond driller.
8.2 Regional Mapping
Regional mapping completed during the 2005 field season extended across Riley Ridge to
Limestone Creek, with a limited amount of work completed on Dead Creek Ridge by Doyle
Albers. From this work came recognition of the importance of the large airborne
electromagnetic low resistivity anomaly west of Riley Ridge.
Local and regional mapping performed during the 2005–2006 mapping program enabled Paul
Lindberg, contracted to NovaGold, to complete a model of an unfolded view of the Project
geology. These results provide a good platform on which to build subsequent models of original
zoning patterns, changing thicknesses and other laterally variable characteristics of the deposit.
8.3 Regional Geochemistry
A total of 2,106 stream silt and soil samples were collected during the 2004 mapping program as
part of an effort to develop a regional geochemistry model for future district exploration. This
program was carried out by NovaGold personnel and the model is still being developed.
8.4 Geophysics
During 2005, two Time Domain ElectroMagnetic (TDEM) induction ground surveys were
performed at the Project and COU. COU is within the claim block and is a significant anomaly
of similar size and tenor a few kilometers to the northwest of Arctic. The 2006 exploration
program was focused on a more regional basis to extend existing mineralization and to identify
new mineralized targets within the claim block, and included 13 TDEM surveys performed to
enhance previous work performed by Kennecott in 1998. Data evaluation is ongoing.
8.5 Portable Infrared Mineral Analyzer (PIMA) Data
PIMA data were collected by NovaGold personnel from all 2004 drillholes as well as select pre-
1998 drillholes. The data collection supplemented previous data collected from the 1998
Kennecott program. Data were collected on a sample interval basis for the 2004 core with a
reading approximately every 0.5m. Readings on the pre-1998 core were taken on both sample

intervals as well as drill run intervals where no assay sample was taken. Alteration mineral type
and relative intensity was interpreted from the spectra and entered into the database. Evaluation
of these data is ongoing.
8.6 Oriented Core
Oriented data were collected from select angle drillholes. The clay impression method was used
to orient the core with data capture done using a circular protractor for beta values and a standard
protractor for alpha values. The majority of oriented measurements were of foliation with a
northwest strike and a southwest dip, similar to those observed on the surface.
Exploration activities at Arctic have been performed within industry standards using appropriate

9 Drilling (Item 13)


9.1 Drill Program and Objectives
The 2004 drilling focused on the Project area and was principally designed to verify the grade
and continuity of the mineralized intercepts encountered in the previous drill campaigns.
Alternate geologic models for the Project were investigated through surface mapping, drill core
re-logging and re-interpretation of previous drill results. Eleven holes totaling 2,996m were
drilled. Significant mineralized intervals were encountered in eight of the eleven holes drilled in
the program. The twin and infill drilling confirmed previously drilled intervals of base-metal
mineralization.
Drilling in 2005 again focused on extending and confirming mineralization, particularly in the
lower limb of the Arctic antiform at the Project. Approximately 3,030m of core drilling was
completed and, although good mineralization was encountered in several holes, structural
discontinuities appear to limit expansion of mineralization to the south and east. Results suggest
that the model remains open to the northeast and that the faulted off-root zone has yet to be
identified. Drill spacing for all programs is dependent on the steep, rugged terrain for locating
drill rigs; however, it varies from 90 to 120m. Sections have been drawn at 61m intervals.
During the 2006 field season, an additional 3,010m of drilling in 12 drillholes was completed.
This drill program was focused on a more regional basis to extend existing mineralization and to
identify new mineralized targets within the claim block.
The drill programs used a single skid-mounted LF-70 core drill, drilling HQ core with Boart
Longyear as the drill contractor. The drill was skidded to the various drill pads using a D-8
bulldozer located on site. The D-8 was also used in road and site preparation. Fuel, supplies and
personnel were transported by helicopter.
Field collar surveys were done with an Ashtech GPS survey system using post-processing
software to obtain survey coordinates. The Riley Vertical Angle Bench Mark was used as the
base for all surveys in 2004. Final surveys are listed in the Ambler survey files. The majority of
pre-2004 drill collars were also surveyed as part of data verification.
Downhole surveys were collected using a reflex camera. Individual survey readings were
collected at the site; data was collected at 50m intervals from the bottom of the hole. Data were
initially captured on paper and subsequently entered into an electronic spreadsheet. All data
were incorporated into a single Access database.
All NovaGold drill core was logged, photographed and sawn, with half sent to the lab for
analysis and half stored near the property. Core logging was done using metric measurements.
Lithology and visual alteration features were captured on observed interval breaks.
Mineralization data, including total sulfide (recorded as percent), sulfide type (recorded as a
relative amount), gangue and vein mineralogy were collected for each sample interval with an
average interval of approximately 2m. Structure data were collected as point data. Geotechnical
data [core recovery, rock quality designation (RQD)] were collected along drill run intervals.
Using the 2004 logging procedure as a guide, data from the earlier campaigns were taken from
those drill logs and entered into the database, with a focus on mineralization information.
The overall objectives of the three drill programs were:

• Verification of mineralized intercepts from previous drill campaigns (twin holes);


• Continuity of ore grade intercepts in the central part of the resource area (infill holes);
• Exploring possible extensions of ore zones; and
• Recording data electronically and building a 3-D model of the deposit.
9.2 Drill Results
Significant mineralized intervals were encountered in eight of the eleven holes drilled in 2004.
Twin and infill drilling confirmed previously drilled intervals of high-grade base-metal
mineralization. The results of the 2004 drilling program show a high degree of variability in
thickness and grade within areas of the deposit.
Drillholes designed to test extension of the ore deposit failed to extend significant ore grade
mineralization. Some holes encountered locally anomalous or sub-ore grade material, possibly
representing distal mineralization. An abrupt decrease in grade occurred in AR04-81 below a
fault zone, suggesting that the mineralized zones may be offset or folded south of the known
deposit. AR04-87 was abandoned due to an inability to penetrate a major fault zone, and was
subsequently re-drilled as AR04-88. This hole ended at 387.6m in altered quartz muscovite
schist, short of the targeted Button Schist.
For 2005, the highest priority objectives included:
• Determining the limits of the deposit to the south and east of the known mineralization by
drilling sufficiently deep holes to test extension of the lower, overturned limb of the
deposit; and
• Gathering information useful for a new resource calculation and scoping study scheduled
for 2006.
In April 2005, NovaGold made plans to drill 3,000m on the south and east fringe of the deposit
through the projected elevation of the lower sulfide limb, completing a downhole TDEM
geophysical survey and extending the geologic mapping from the Project area northwest toward
Dead Creek. Work completed toward extending the lower sulfide limb included nine holes
totaling 3,030m. Of these, two failed to achieve their targeted depth.
Frontier Geosciences, Inc. was contracted to complete downhole probing of selected holes at the
Project. They also completed a large loop TDEM survey over the Project area. Because
mapping indicated permissive stratigraphy coincident with the airborne anomaly west of Riley
Ridge, Frontier completed an additional TDEM loop survey over the anomaly core.
NovaGold geologists completed geochemical sampling of all NovaGold core and spot sampling
of much of the historical BCMC/Kennecott Minerals Arctic core. This work is ongoing and will
allow NovaGold to build a reasonably comprehensive lithogeochemical model of the Arctic
deposit.
The 2006 drilling program completed 3,010m in 12 holes. This program was performed to test
mineralization extensions and geophysical anomalies outside the immediate Project area, but
within the claim block. These holes were drilled at the Dead Creek, Sun, COU and Red
prospects.

Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

At Dead Creek, the holes were located based on a combination of geophysics and geology. Each
hole penetrated the targeted stratigraphy, and showed that the sulfide system diminishes to the
north and east but remains open to the south and west. One of the Back-Door Creek holes
penetrated an 8m zone that contained several 2 to 7cm-thick pyrrhotite bands, but with only a
trace of chalcopyrite. This zone correlates stratigraphically with a mineralized interval in a
nearby historical hole, suggesting metallic mineral zonation from pyrite and base-metal sulfide to
pyrrhotite.
Drilling in the Sunshine Creek area tested the western extent of mineralization observed in
historical drill holes, which is interpreted to be two sulfide-bearing horizons that lie sub-parallel
to the stratigraphy, above a carbonate package. NovaGold interprets the two mineralized
horizons as limbs of an F2 anticline. Drill intercepts from 2006 that correlate with these two
horizons had significantly lower grade and were thinner than historical intercepts. Preliminary
results indicate that the sulfide horizon becomes dominated by pyrrhotite to the west. NovaGold
currently interprets this compositional change to represent a more distal portion of the
mineralized system.
Drilling at COU was performed to investigate an electromagnetic anomaly and consisted of one
hole. The source of this anomaly was a thick sequence of graphitic black schist that contained
abundant continuous pyrrhotite bands. Downhole a few hundred meters it was recognized that
the hole was still in the hanging wall to the stratigraphic package that hosts the Project. This
resulted in extending the hole. The hole was stopped slightly above its target because of safety
considerations. This hole has proven vital to NovaGold’s understanding of the regional F2 folds
and to the stratigraphic stacking order in this area.
NovaGold drilled four holes into the Red prospect, located in the lowlands of the Kogoluktuk
Valley, about 5km east of the Project. These holes tested an electromagnetic anomaly and
intersected a sulfide vein system hosted by siltstone believed to underlie the Gnurgle Gneiss.
The veins have a quartz-calcite-fluorite gangue, and their margins commonly contain
concentrations of secondary brown biotite, suggesting an affinity to relatively high-temperature
potassic alteration. The F1 structural fabric deforms the veins, suggesting that they are relatively
old. The vein style of mineralization makes this occurrence unique in the district.
An ongoing effort to gather and compile data for a new resource model for the Project includes
re-logging of historical drill core, detailed logging of individual ore intersections at 1:50 scale
and work with hole-to-hole correlations.
Drilling at Arctic has been performed within industry standards using appropriate methods and
techniques for a VMS target. SRK agrees with the techniques used at this project.
Multiple drillhole intersections have resulted in a reasonably accurate knowledge of the
orientation of the mineralization. Mineralization follows enclosing stratigraphic layering and is
further defined, except where tightly folded, by bedding parallel to bedding subparallel foliation.
Most holes intersect the mineral zone nearly perpendicular to foliation and to the mineralization,
so the intersections represent near true thickness. Exceptions are where mineralized zones wrap
around tight fold hinges, but these instances are rare.

10 Sampling Method and Approach (Item 14)


The sampling protocol for all the NovaGold drill programs at the Arctic deposit from 2004–2007
is the same. Core logging geologists mark the sample intervals, which range from 1 to 3m in
length. Varying rock types, lithologic contacts and mineralized zones influence sample interval
selection. Sample boundaries are placed at lithologic contacts. Each hole was sampled in its
entirety, even in areas that encountered significant intervals of unmineralized core. Sample
intervals of 2 to 3m are most common in weakly to unmineralized core, and sample intervals of 1
to 2m are more common in mineralized zones or areas of varying lithology. Sample intervals
used are well within the width of the average mineralized zone in the resource area. This
sampling approach is considered sound and appropriate for this style of mineralization and
alteration. Core recovery was good to excellent, resulting in quality samples with little to no
bias. There are no known drilling and/or recovery factors that could materially impact accuracy.
ALS Chemex in Vancouver, B.C. was used for all analyses conducted by NovaGold.
Core drilling within the resource area was specifically targeted for geologic control and to best
define zones of mineralization for the resulting resource estimate. Drilling outside of the
resource area was focused to explore for additional mineralization and to gain a better
understanding of the geologic controls to mineralization.
After logging, the core was digitally photographed and cut in half using diamond core saws.
Specific attention to core orientation was maintained during core sawing to ensure the best
representative sampling. One-half of the core was returned to the core box for storage on site
and the other half was bagged and labeled for sample processing and analysis.
Sampling of drill core prior to 2004 by Kennecott and BCMC focused primarily on the
mineralized zones. During the 1998 campaign, Kennecott did sample some broad zones of
alteration and weak mineralization, but much of the unaltered and unmineralized rock remains
unsampled. ALS Chemex was also used for analyses conducted by Kennecott.
Earlier BCMC sampling was even more restricted to mineralized zones of core. Intervals of
visible sulfide mineralization were selected for sampling and analyses were conducted by Union
Assay Office Inc. of Salt Lake City, Utah. Numerous intervals of weak to moderate
mineralization remain unsampled in the historical drill core. NovaGold conducted some limited
sampling of this historical drill core to gain a better understanding of trace element distribution
around the Arctic deposit. During the relogging of much of this historical core, 1m intervals
were selected over each 10m of unmineralized core. These 1m intervals were sawn in half, with
one-half returned to the box and the other half placed in a bag, labeled and sent to the laboratory
for analysis. This type of sampling was used to determine trace element distribution about the
deposit; none of the mineralized zones were sampled in this way.
With the lack of outcrop in a folded metamorphic terrane, it is necessary to have a good
understanding of the geologic model to predict positioning of the drill to get a sample of true
thickness in the mineralized zone. NovaGold has been diligently relogging core and mapping
the project to gain this understanding. The use of oriented core is very important to this
interpretation. SRK has confidence that the samples collected at the Project are representative of
the geometry of the mineralized zone.

11 Sample Preparation, Analyses and Security


(Item 15)
The core from the NovaGold programs was sawn in half, with half sent to labs in Fairbanks, AK
for sample preparation and the other half returned to the core box for storage. Samples were
crushed to 70% <2mm and a nominal 250g split was sent to Vancouver, B.C. for analysis by
ALS Chemex. There the splits were pulverized to 85% <75um. Initial gold analysis was done
by fire assay atomic absorption (FA-AA) on a nominal 30g split of the pulp. Samples returning
over limit gold values (>10ppm) were rerun using fire assay techniques. Initial results for all
other elements (27) were done via four acid digestion ICP analysis on a nominal 25g split of the
pulp. Samples with over limit values for copper (>10,000ppm), lead (>10,000ppm), zinc
(>10,000ppm) or silver (>100ppm) were rerun using atomic absorption (AA) techniques.
Gold values for duplicate samples (both blind and laboratory) from 2004 and for those samples
re-assayed from earlier programs locally showed high variability, indicating a possible nugget
effect. As a result, a series of samples was selected for mass spectrometer analysis (MSA)
analysis. Results are pending.
A Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) program was instituted for the 2004 drill
program. Samples were broken into 20 sample batches that included three QA/QC samples. The
QA/QC samples included one duplicate, one blank and one standard. Duplicate samples were
prepared at the prep facility by taking a second split from the entire prepped sample. A local
limestone source was used as the blank material. A series of samples taken from the source area
and assayed confirm that the limestone is a suitable blank material. The standard material was
obtained from WCM Minerals of Burnaby, B.C. A base-metal standard was selected that best
represented the grade of the Arctic ore. Samples were either in the custody of NovaGold
personnel or the assay labs at all times.
11.1 Pre-1998 Assay Reruns
A search was made through Kennecott’s Reno, NV warehouse for sample pulps from pre-1998
drill campaigns. A total of 290 pulps was located, mainly from the earliest drill programs, and
sent to ALS Chemex Labs in Vancouver, B.C. for analysis. The samples were analyzed for gold
by FA-AA as well as 27 additional elements by ICP analysis (see analytical description).
Samples were arranged in batches of approximately 20, each with inserted QA/QC samples.
A comparison of the average base and precious metal assay results for the 2004 assays versus
those from previous drill campaigns is listed below (Table 11.1.1).
Table 11.1.1: Pre-1998 Pulp Rerun Comparisons
Element # Sample Pairs Ave: Original Assays Ave: Re-assays 2004 % Diff.: 2004 vs. Orig.
Copper 272 2.91% 2.65% -10.10
Lead 134 1.09% 1.30% +16.40
Zinc 199 5.00% 4.80% -4.11
Silver 212 54.15ppm 55.05ppm +1.63
Gold 119 0.802ppm 0.767ppm -4.65

Of the 290 total pulps, 11 contained insufficient volume for any analysis. The variable number
of sample pairs is the result of either insufficient sample size for analysis of select elements in

2004 (mainly over limits) or because some elements were not selected for assay in earlier
campaigns.
Zinc, silver and gold analyses all compared favorably. While lead showed the largest variability,
the average grades are relatively low, thereby having little effect on the tonnage value. Copper
values also had high variability and averaged 10% lower than the original values.

ALS Chemex has attained ISO 9001:2000 registration. In addition, the ALS Chemex
Vancouver laboratory is accredited to ISO 17025 by Standards Council of Canada for a number
of specific test procedures including fire assay Au by AA, ICP and gravimetric finish, multi-
element ICP and AA assays for Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn.

11.2 Reliability of Results


The apparently poor reproducibility of historical assay values is likely a sign of a highly variable
deposit, and not an assaying issue. While sample assays are suitable for this Technical Report,
further analysis and comparisons are recommended for prefeasibility.
The QA/QC data appear to be reasonable for a program of this scope; a few discrepancies exist
which are normal. No formal assessment of the QA-QC data from the 2004-2005 data has been
made. This should also be done before prefeasibility, and any significant problems addressed by
re-assaying samples which had issues.

12 Data Verification (Item 16)


12.1 Data Acquisition and Verification
12.1.1 NovaGold Verification
NovaGold performed a review of existing Ambler data at the Kennecott offices in Salt Lake
City, Utah with a focus on data relating to the Arctic deposit. Numerous reports and studies
were scanned. All available assay certificates as well as the current database were copied and/or
scanned.
All pre-2004 drill assay values in the database provided by Kennecott were compared to assay
values from the original assay certificates. Local discrepancies, mainly associated with precious
metal results, were identified and corrected.
12.1.2 SRK Verification
SRK was supplied with paper and scanned electronic certificates for the pre-2004 programs.
Assay certificates for 472 samples out of 1,854 of these samples were unavailable for review.
SRK checked 10% of pre-2004 assay certificates against the database. Only minor typographical
discrepancies were found and corrected. All of the highest 5% grades of all five elements were
checked where available.
SRK also received electronic certificates as text files in comma-separated values (CSV) format
for 2,612 assays (88% of the NovaGold Arctic samples) from the 2004–2005 drilling/sampling
program, which also included numerous samples selected from previously drilled core. All of
these assays were verified successfully with the provided database.
QA/QC data were also made available for the 2005 sampling program, consisting of 166
duplicate samples, 282 standards and 293 blanks. These samples were well within acceptable
limits.
Although a few of the paper certificates were unavailable, the available certificates provided
reasonable assurance that the database is accurate.

13 Adjacent Properties (Item 17)


There are three properties adjacent to Arctic: Sun, Smucker and Ruby Creek (Bornite). Sulfide
systems similar in character to Arctic occur at the exploration properties of Sun and Smucker
(Figure 2-4), held by Andover and Teck Cominco, respectively. Copper mineralization at
Bornite, held by NANA, occurs with hydrothermal dolomitization of the Bornite carbonate
sequence (Hitzman et al., 1986). The information for Sun, Smucker and Bornite, and the
comparisons with Arctic, is in no way indicative that a mineral deposit of similar size or grade
does occur or will be found at the Project. The qualified persons have been unable to verify the
information on adjacent properties contained herein.
13.1 Sun Prospect
The Sun prospect is also referred to as the Hot prospect. It is described as a copper, zinc, lead
and silver deposit and is east of Arctic in the same terrane and lithologic sequence. The deposit
is currently in reserve development and is being assessed as a potential open pit and underground
mine site. Andover owns 100% of the property but former owner Hastings Base Metals
Corporation retains a 1.5% net smelter return (NSR) on production. A resource estimate was
performed on Sun by Anaconda based on surface drilling programs. The resource estimate,
summarized in Table 13.1.1, was performed in 1977, has been publicly disclosed and is
considered to be inferred resources. This historical resource estimate pre-dates the development
of NI 43-101 reporting guidelines, was not estimated in compliance with NI 43-101 procedures
and should not be relied on (Metals Economics Group, 2007).

13.2 Smucker Prospect


This prospect is located west of Arctic in the same terrane and lithologic sequence and is
described as a copper, zinc, silver and lead prospect currently in target outline. Targeting is for a
potential underground mine, but there are no published resource and reserve estimates for this
project (Metals Economics Group, 2007).
13.3 Bornite Property
The Bornite property is also called Ruby Creek or Cosmos Creek. The property is currently held
by NANA and has underground workings. It is described as being on care and maintenance and
in target outline (Metals Economics Group, 2007). This property is a copper and cobalt deposit
with both Mississippi Valley and Olympic Dam type deposit affinities. It is hosted by a tabular
hydrothermal breccia in dolomite and limestone (Williams, 2000). Ore mineralization includes
chalcopyrite, bornite, chalcocite, tennantite and galena with pyrite, pyrrhotite and dickite as
gangue minerals (Metals Economics Group, 2007). The site currently has a flooded shaft and an
unknown amount of underground workings. A resource was estimated by Hitzman (1986),
which listed the Ruby Creek deposit as 90Mt at 1.2% copper. This historical resource estimate
pre-dates the development of NI 43-101 reporting guidelines, was not estimated in compliance
with NI 43-101 procedures and should not be relied on. Hitzman is a highly respected geologist

The Arctic deposit is a VMS deposit in talc schists. The principal minerals containing metals of
interest are chalcopyrite (Cu), tetrahedrite (Cu, Ag), galena (Pb, Ag) and sphalerite (Zn). The
present study considers production of concentrates for shipment to an existing off-site
conventional smelter. Metallurgical testing and the selection process are summarized in this
section.
14.1 Metallurgical Testwork
14.1.1 1998–1999 Testwork
A metallurgical testwork program was performed for Kennecott by Lakefield Research
(Lakefield) in 1998, with a report issued in January 1999. In previous work completed in the
1970s, high levels of lead and zinc were found to report to the copper concentrate, which would
at best incur significant smelter penalties, and at worst would not be acceptable to a copper
smelter. The objective of the Lakefield test program, therefore, was to define a metallurgical
flow sheet that would produce three marketable concentrates: lead/precious metals, copper and
zinc.
Two composites were prepared from five drillholes for the metallurgical test program and are
thought to be representative of various ore characteristics of the deposit. The first composite,
which was defined as the Upper Zone, showed much better metallurgy than the Lower Zone.
The Lower Zone samples contained significant quantities of easily floating talc. Table 14.1.1.1
summarizes the results from the metallurgical test program.

Conclusions from the test program are summarized below:

• Copper and zinc concentrates grading 26% Cu and 59% Zn, respectively, in the Upper
Zone should be readily marketable;
• The lead concentrate grades for both ore zones were less than 50% Pb, relatively low by
world standards;
• The lead recoveries for both ore zones were also low at 68.1% for the low talc and only
31.7% for the high talc with the talc pre-float;
• A talc pre-float appears to be more effective for the Lower Zone material than talc
depression, confirming the earlier work at the KRC;
• Primary grinds were generally finer than in previous work (P80 of 74µm versus 120µm);
and
• Gold and silver recoveries were generally lower than the projections in the 1996 study
but more in line with the actual testwork data from the 1970’s.
The data obtained from the Lakefield tests, as expressed in the points above, provided a
significant improvement from previous testwork campaigns in the ability to separate payable
metals into saleable concentrates.

15 Mineral Resource Estimate (Item 19)


15.1 Resource Estimation
SRK used Maptek’s Vulcan software to create the geologic and block models and estimate
grade. The resource estimate includes all data produced through 2005; no additional data has
been generated since 2005, thus the effective date of this report is January 31, 2008.
15.1.1 Drillhole Database
The drillhole database consists of 119 core holes, 96 of which intercepted significant
mineralization. Of the 25,000m drilled, 4,808 intervals were sampled representing 9,128m of
sampled drilling. Sample lengths vary from 0.1 to 12m, and average about 1.9m. Each interval
contains assays for copper, zinc, lead, gold and silver, as well as codes for lithology and
mineralized zone. Drillhole collars for the holes used in this estimate are listed in Appendix C,
and their locations are shown in Figure 15-1.
A separate database table includes specific gravity (SG) measurements for 404 samples taken
from 47 drillholes.
Downhole surveys were recorded in 50 to 150ft intervals for the majority of the drillholes. A
standard “typical deviation” had been applied to 40 holes, which were unsurveyed. Due to the
assumed regional structural fabric, this practice is reasonable, although the actual hole deviations
may vary greatly depending on structures encountered, lithologic contacts, drilling rigs and
drilling conditions. For a Technical Report, the sample locations are sufficient. SRK
recommends that a detailed study of downhole surveys be performed to verify that a general
artificial survey is appropriate for all parts of the deposit. In future, all holes require downhole
surveys.
Zone codes were assigned to the drillhole database to match the modeled massive sulfide units as
described below in Section 15.1.2. These were chosen based upon a combination of logged
lithology and assayed grades and were coded based on the geometric relationship to the
interpreted geology.
15.1.2 Univariate Statistics
Univariate statistics were calculated on all mineralized intercepts as shown in Appendix D.
Based on breaks in the populations as observed in the probability plots, caps were determined for
each element. These caps and their effects are listed in Table 15.1.2.1 and broken out by
massive sulfide and host (non-massive sulfide) categories.

15.1.3 Geology
Based upon cross sectional interpretations supplied by NovaGold, five “zones” representing
massive sulfide lenses were modeled. Two of these represent the upper and lower limbs of a
basic recumbent fold structure hinged to the northwest and dipping to the southwest roughly 20°,
and two others are splayed horizons sandwiched between the main limbs. The fifth zone is a
single limb northwest and below the other zones across a fault referred to as the “Lower Thrust”.
Previously existing Vulcan models supplied the basic geometries for this model but were not
suitable for capturing data in an appropriate manner for estimation. These zones were modeled
to fit this geometry using grid models of elevation and vertical thickness. The grid interpolation
method used chosen intercepts as data points with both elevation and vertical thickness. These
attributes were interpolated into 5m x 5m grid cells that were then manipulated to provide a top
and bottom surface for each lens. An advantage of this method is that it does a very good job of
respecting the locations of the original intercepts while maintaining a reasonable/logical
geometry. Due to the sparse data that this is based upon, it has been assumed that more drilling
data and further refinement of the model will occur before final mine planning is done. These
zones are coded as follows, and illustrated in Figures 15-2 and 15-3.
1 = Main upper limb.
2 = Intermediate upper lens.
3 = Intermediate lower lens.
4 = Main lower limb.
11 = Lower thrust extension.
Intervals of massive sulfide that could not be clearly correlated to this general interpretation were
assigned a code of 5 or 6 so they could be easily identified in future attempts at correlation.
Although the cross sectional interpretation clearly shows several faults cutting across the sulfide
bodies, the sparsity of data supporting isolated blocks of sulfides led to the use of a simpler
interpretation to reflect supportable volume estimates of sulfides. As more drilling information
is gained these models should be revised.
These lenses were in general not extrapolated more than 50m beyond the edge of mineralized
intercepts. In some areas the distance between intercepts internal to the mineralization exceeded
50m.
15.1.4 Compositing
Composites were created in 1m downhole intervals, broken at changes in zone codes. This
length was used as a compromise to capture short intervals that were typically sampled on
massive sulfides, while still allowing high- and low-grade intervals to exist within the narrow
lenses. Unsampled and unlogged intervals were counted as having zero grades for all metals.
15.1.5 Specific Gravity
Previous resource estimations for the Project used an average SG of 3.48 for mineralized
material. There is no documentation explaining how this number was derived. In 1998,
Kennecott had SG analyses done on 38 core samples of which 22 were from mineralized zones
and 16 from other lithologies. Analyses were split between Chemex Laboratories and Golder
and Associates. Mineralized samples were defined for SG measurements as massive sulfide

Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

(>50% total sulfides) or semi-massive sulfide (<50% total sulfides). Lithologic samples were
also collected, some of which contain up to 10% sulfides. The mineralized samples showed a
large difference from the previous estimated density number used.
The following year, in 1999, Kennecott selected 231 samples from the pre-1998 drill campaigns
for SG analysis. The samples were shipped to Anchorage but were not forwarded to a lab for
analysis.
Due to the large discrepancy between previous SG measurements, a more extensive field SG
program was implemented. In 2004, the 231 samples from the pre-1998 drill campaigns were
collected from Kennecott’s Anchorage warehouse and sent to Chemex Laboratories for bulk
density analysis. In addition to these 231 samples, 33 samples from the 2004 program were
included, mainly to check field procedures.
Field SG measurements were collected using an Ohaus triple beam balance. Select core samples
were first dried and then a weight-in-air value was obtained followed by a weight-in-water, with
the sample suspended by a wire into a water-filled bucket. The density was calculated using the
following formula:
Weight in air
(Weight in air – Weight in water)
A total of 127 usable field SG measurements was obtained.
The 2004 lab program produced significantly lower SG results for mineralized samples
compared to the earlier programs. The average of the field results were within 1% of the lab
results, confirming the accuracy of the field procedures. In comparison to the earlier programs,
the 2004 SG measurements were 7.4% lower for massive sulfide samples and 14.5% lower for
semi-massive sulfide samples. The average of the lithology samples was similar in all programs.
Table 15.1.5.1 shows the results obtained for these three programs.

All Programs 4.16 171 3.49 103 2.84 155

The difference between the 2004 lab results and those from previous studies may be the result of
selection bias in the earlier programs as well as mineralogy within individual samples. With the
exception of the lithology samples, the averages from the earlier programs were obtained using
fewer samples. Samples from the pre-1998 drill campaigns were from NQ- and BQ-sized core,
while samples from the 1998 and 2004 drilling programs were collected from HQ-sized core. In
addition, the length of sample taken from the pre-1998 averaged 7.27cm, whereas samples of
2004 core averaged 9.05cm. As a result, sample size may also be a factor in the SG variation
from program to program. With more data, a better correlation between total estimated sulfide
and SG may be defined. This could then be used in future resource estimations.
For the purpose of this resource estimate, the non-rejected SG measurements were categorized
by rock type and vary from 2.62 to 4.87 with an average of 4.4 for massive sulfide (MS). The

MS zones modeled are actually composed of a mixture of MS and semi-massive sulfide (SMS),
and the combination of these samples have an average SG of 4.2 (Table 15.1.5.2). Actual values
within each zone were used to interpolate SG into the block model using inverse distance
squared, but where SG sample density was too sparse, a default value of 4.2 was used in the
mineralized zones. A default of 2.9, the average SG of non-rejected quartz mica schist samples,
was used for all host rock.

15.1.6 Variogram Analysis and Modeling


Due to the wide spacing of data and the complex geometry of the sulfide lenses, a thorough
directional variogram study is impractical. General directional variograms were generated for
each element and, due to the drill spacing and orientation, the best variograms are in the
orientation of azimuth 150, plunge 30 (as shown in Appendix E). Ranges of 40 to 50m are
observed in all elements but gold, which has a range of 25m.
The block model was defined with an orientation of 49° to parallel the trend of the dominant
recumbent fold. Blocks are 5m x 5m in the X and Y dimensions, and variable to within the
closest 0.2m in the Z dimension in order to fit the volume of the narrow flat MS zones, as
defined by the wireframe solid models.
Due to the convoluted, but narrow geometry of the sulfide zones, the estimation used a spherical
search restricted within the zones. Multiple passes were used—50m, 100m and 150m—to fill as
many blocks as possible with the zones. The first search pass used a minimum of two samples,
with no more than three from any one drillhole. Subsequent search passes omitted these
restrictions. All elements were estimated simultaneously using the same parameters. Although
gold had a shorter range than the other elements, it is not a significant economic contributor to
this model, so using a slightly longer range was not viewed as an issue.
Because some isolated MS intercepts were not easily correlated to the modeled zones, they
remain outside of these zones. To associate a limited volume to these intercepts, a very narrow
“pancake” search of 40m x 40m x 5m was used outside of the modeled zones (also referred to as
zone 0). Two different generalized orientations were used to match the two dominant fabrics
observed outside of the modeled zones. An “upper/South” limb orientation strikes 85°, dipping
22° to the South, and a lower/North limb orientation strikes 356°, dipping 32° West. Although
these orientations may not always exactly match the local fabric, they allow these uncorrelated
samples to represent a reasonable tonnage of inferred resource. All estimation parameters are
defined in Table 15.1.6.1.
After the metal grades were estimated, a simplified Gross Metal Value (GMV) was calculated
based on metal prices applied to each individual grade. The GMV is equal to the sum of each
grade multiplied by the value of the metal unit as shown in Table 15.1.6.2.

Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

Using a range of GMV cutoffs verses indicated and inferred resources and grade in percent
copper equivalents, SRK developed a preliminary grade-tonnage curve (Figure 15-4). A $100
GMV cutoff was selected using this grade-tonnage curve.
In addition, underground mining methods have been used as a basis for modeling this deposit.
An open pit option was not considered because of the following reasons:
• Preliminary geotechnical analysis indicated that attainable pit wall angles would have to
be relatively shallow, necessitating high stripping ratios; and
• The potential acid rock generation issues associated with the massive sulfide mineralogy
exposed in an open pit and waste piles adding potential mitigation costs and permitting
requirements.

15.1.7 Resource Classification


The mineral resources have been classified according to the CIM Standards on Mineral
Resources and Reserves: Definitions and Guidelines” (November 2005) as described in the
Glossary (Section 21).
Resources in the MS zones, which were estimated by the first (50m) search, were classified as
indicated. This is roughly based on a distance that is twice the variogram range and within one
cross section distance inside a modeled shape, which is based on correlated intervals. All blocks
outside of the MS zones, and all other estimated blocks too distant from the samples for the first
pass, were classified as inferred. No resources were classified as measured. Inferred resources
have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined
legally or economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of inferred resources will ever
be upgraded to a higher category.

15.1.9 Resource Potential


There are many intercepts in the vicinity of the modeled zones that have not been correlated with
this model. Infill drilling will undoubtedly increase the knowledge of how these intercepts fit the
picture, and may potentially lead to an increase in the resources quantum.
In preparing the Technical Report presented herein, SRK has applied modifying factors based on
testwork undertaken to date and/or general industry accepted practice for a project of this nature.

18 Interpretation and Conclusions (Item 21)


The Arctic deposit is a high-grade, volcanic massive sulfide deposit with excellent potential but
logistical challenges.
The following presents the interpretations and conclusions of this Technical Report:
• Geology;
o Geologic interpretations by NovaGold geologists show a complexly folded and
potentially faulted deposit. Based on the widely spaced data available, the
currently modeled resource model omits these complexities due to lack of
correlatable data. However, volumetrically this resource should be representative
based on the available samples. The resource has been completed based on
industry standards for this type of deposit with this level of sample spacing.
• Resource;
o The mineral resources have been classified using logic consistent with the CIM
definitions incorporated in NI 43-101. The mineralization of the Project satisfies
sufficient criteria to be classified into Indicated and Inferred resource categories,
o Further exploration is required to upgrade the resources thus far identified, and
o Resource estimation is based on underground mining methods.
• Environmental and Permitting;
o Development of the Project will be subject to extensive environmental baseline
analyses, impact assessment and evaluation, and associated permitting
requirements reflective of the cumulative impacts associated with full project
build-out, and the sensitive environment in which it is to be constructed.

19 Recommendations (Item 22)


The findings of this Technical Report provide compelling arguments to advance the evaluation
of the Project to the pre-feasibility stage.
Additional activities in support of a pre-feasibility assessment include the following, together
with indicative costs:
• Environmental Assessment US$500,000
• Exploration and Drilling US$2,000,000
• Metallurgical Testwork US$400,000
• Pre-feasibility Report US$200,000
Given the amount of work performed on the project, additional activities are required to confirm
previous work and further define the development scheme. A revised economic analysis should
be carried out.

21 Glossary
21.1 Mineral Resources & Reserves
Mineral Resources
The mineral resources and mineral reserves have been classified according to the “CIM
Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves: Definitions and Guidelines” (November 2005).
Accordingly, the Resources have been classified as Measured, Indicated or Inferred, the
Reserves have been classified as Proven, and Probable based on the Measured and Indicated
Resources as defined below.
A Mineral Resource is a concentration or occurrence of natural, solid, inorganic or fossilized
organic material in or on the Earth’s crust in such form and quantity and of such a grade or
quality that it has reasonable prospects for economic extraction. The location, quantity, grade,
geological characteristics and continuity of a Mineral Resource are known, estimated or
interpreted from specific geological evidence and knowledge.
An ”Inferred Mineral Resource” is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade
or quality can be estimated on the basis of geological evidence and limited sampling and
reasonably assumed, but not verified, geological and grade continuity. The estimate is based on
limited information and sampling gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such
as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drillholes.
An ”Indicated Mineral Resource” is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or
quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics can be estimated with a level of confidence
sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and economic parameters, to support
mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. The estimate is based on
detailed and reliable exploration and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques
from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drillholes that are spaced closely
enough for geological and grade continuity to be reasonably assumed.
A ”Measured Mineral Resource” is that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or
quality, densities, shape, physical characteristics are so well established that they can be
estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the appropriate application of technical and
economic parameters, to support production planning and evaluation of the economic viability of
the deposit. The estimate is based on detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing
information gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches,
pits, workings and drillholes that are spaced closely enough to confirm both geological and grade
continuity.
Mineral Reserves
A Mineral Reserve is the economically mineable part of a Measured or Indicated Mineral
Resource demonstrated by at least a Preliminary Feasibility Study. This Study must include
adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic and other relevant factors
that demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic extraction can be justified. A Mineral
Reserve includes diluting materials and allowances for losses that may occur when the material
is mined.

Ambler Project.NI 43-101 Resource Report.168401.KG.009.doc
NovaGold Resources Inc. 21-2
Ambler Project NI 43-101 Technical Report on Resources

A “Probable Mineral Reserve” is the economically mineable part of an Indicated, and in some
circumstances, a Measured Mineral Resource demonstrated by at least a Preliminary Feasibility
Study. This Study must include adequate information on mining, processing, metallurgical,
economic, and other relevant factors that demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic
extraction can be justified.
A “Proven Mineral Reserve” is the economically mineable part of a Measured Mineral Resource
demonstrated by at least a Preliminary Feasibility Study. This Study must include adequate
information on mining, processing, metallurgical, economic, and other relevant factors that
demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that economic extraction is justified.
