When this deposit is approved for development (And it will be sooner or later),
20 years mine life will just be the start. The deposit is open in a number of directions and is mammoth. Not many other deposits world wide with a 100 million plus ounces of gold out there. Then there’s the copper. This is more likely a 50 to 75 year mine life. If NDM can get the ROD they will be well on the way to making this happen.
Should gold go to $2000 an ounce the majors will be coming over the hill. This deposit will be a key anchor for any of the large companies.
Im in now cause if the ROD is issued this is an easy triple bagger from here and the wait is not long to find out.
The locals will realize electricity natural gas and jobs. The state will realize royalties. It’s a win win.
Development can be done without impacting the salmon.
Biggest impact on the salmon is overfishing. That also must be controlled with due diligence.
