Welcome to NovaGold Resources Inc.

NovaGold Resources Inc. (NYSE-AMEX, TSX: NG) is a growth company focused on gold exploration, development and mining. NovaGold owns 50% of the Donlin Creek gold project in Alaska, one of the world's largest gold deposits, in an agreement with Barrick Gold (50%). NovaGold and Teck Resources have created a 50/50 partnership at the Galore Creek copper-gold-silver project in northwestern British Columbia. And NovaGold also owns 100% of Nome Operations, which is 90% built and expected to produce 100,000 ounces of gold annually when production commences.

NovaGold's Donlin Creek property is advancing through permitting toward a construction decision. When built, the mine is expected to produce nearly 1.5 million ounces of gold annually for the first 12 years of a 20+ year mine life, at cash costs in the lower half of the industry.

The Company’s net resource inventory is 15.2 million ounces of Proven & Probable gold reserves, with a Measured and Indicated resource base of 9.0 million ounces of gold, 93.8 million ounces of silver and 6.0 billion pounds of copper and additional Inferred Resources of 5.3 million ounces of gold, 62.6 million ounces of silver and 3.0 billion pounds of copper. This reserve/resource base is comparable to many of the world's most prominent producers.

NovaGold strongly believes that exploration success is one of the best ways to create shareholder value, and has consistently expanded the Company's resource base. At total acquisition and discovery costs of less than $4 per ounce of gold and 2 cents per pound of copper, these discovery rates far surpass industry averages and will continue to be a major catalyst for NovaGold’s growth.

With the diversification of three separate multi-million-ounce quality projects, which are at different stages in the production pipeline, NovaGold has one of the strongest production growth profiles in the sector. NovaGold has the potential to produce more than 1 million ounces of gold, 4 million ounces of silver and 200 million pounds of copper annually with Nome Operations, Galore Creek and Donlin Creek fully producing.

NovaGold is unhedged and committed to operating to the highest environmental standards at all of its projects. Using industry best practices, we work closely with our local Native Alaskan and First Nations partners to develop projects that provide long-term benefits to those communities, including direct employment and opportunities to build new support-service businesses.

On a current resource valuation, production growth profile and social responsibility basis, we believe you will find that NovaGold offers one of the most compelling gold growth opportunities on the market.
