Northern Star to Invest up to $60M for 70% of Alaska Range PolarX has secured a landmark farm-in agreement with Northern Star Resources (ASX: NST), giving Northern Star the right to earn up to 70% of the Alaska Range Project by spending $60 million. This partnership validates the project’s scale and potential. 2. High-Grade Copper and Gold Resource with 70% IRR The Caribou Dome deposit within the Alaska Range has delivered scoping study results showing an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of ~70% (based on metals prices two years ago), underlining its strong economics and global significance as one of the highest-grade undeveloped copper projects in the USA. 3. Exploration Upside Along 35km Strike Length PolarX controls an under-explored 35km mineralised corridor, including soil anomalies up to 11km by 8km in size. Northern Star’s backing allows for big-company exploration programs—geophysics, helicopter surveys, and systematic drilling—that were previously unaffordable for PolarX. 4. Strategic Positioning in Critical Minerals With copper recently added to the US Critical Minerals List, PolarX’s Alaskan copper-gold assets are strategically aligned with America’s push for secure, domestic supply. The jurisdictional advantage of being in the USA enhances the project’s attractiveness to global investors. 5. 100% Ownership of Humboldt Range in Nevada Outside the Alaska JV, PolarX retains full ownership of the Humboldt Range Project in Nevada, located next to major heap-leach gold and silver operations such as Florida Canyon and Rochester. Drill-ready and surrounded by multimillion-ounce deposits, Humboldt represents a second growth pillar for the company.
