Northstar Gold

What Northstar Gold does

Northstar Gold Corp is a pre-revenue junior mining exploration and development company focused on copper and gold assets in Ontario's Abitibi Greenstone Belt. Listed on the CSE (NSG), OTC (NSGCF), and FSE (3WV), the company holds 100% interest in the flagship 1,114-hectare Miller Copper-Gold Property located 18 km southeast of Kirkland Lake Gold's Macassa South Mine Complex, which hosts two distinct deposit styles: the Allied Gold Zone (a near-surface alkalic intrusion-hosted gold-telluride-copper system with a 2022 SRK exploration target of 250,000-500,000 oz Au at 1.39-2.04 g/t Au) and the Cam Copper VMS project (Zone 2 exploration target of 75,000-140,000 tonnes grading 9-18% Cu). Northstar also holds three additional 100%-owned exploration properties in northern Ontario (Rosegrove 1,150 ha, Bryce Gold 4,650 ha, and Temagami-Milestone Cu-Ni-Co) where it is actively seeking exploration partners.

The company's core technology is its partnership with Novamera Inc. for proprietary Surgical Mining services, an AI-powered precision extraction method combining large-diameter rotary drilling from surface, real-time downhole imaging, robotic drilling, and AI-driven modeling, with immediate backfilling and a closed-loop water system. Under a definitive October 2025 Services Agreement, Novamera will extract approximately 116,000 tonnes of Zone 2 material over 31 months via 93 extraction holes in exchange for a 5% NSR revenue share, with Northstar providing a US$1.535 million staged advance payment. Geological and block models are produced by Caracle Creek Consulting and CGK Consulting using Maptek Vulcan software.

Northstar's business model is pre-revenue exploration-stage: it raises capital through non-brokered private placements of hard-dollar units, critical minerals flow-through shares, and advance-royalty units (which return 50% of project free cash flow to investors until 4x principal), and through government co-investment (notably $4 million from DIGITAL in an ~$11 million consortium). Anticipated future revenue streams include copper and gold production from Cam Copper and Allied Gold Zone, royalty-style revenue sharing with Novamera, and potential offtake or strategic-buyer transactions. Customers and end-buyers are not yet disclosed; the company targets strategic and institutional investors aligned with critical minerals objectives and the broader critical minerals industry.
