“after market close, NOVAGOLD (NG) released 3Q results. The company reiterated its significant mile marks achieved in 3Q, including the Record of Decision (ROD) for Donlin and the successful sale of Galore Creek. After receiving the ROD in 3Q, the company now looks to solidify its execution plan and integrate its drill program results into its resource model before moving on to an updated feasibility study to reflect an optimized development plan. As a result of work optimization at Donlin, reduced permitting expenditures, and the sale of Galore Creek, NG improved their budget for the year—expecting to spend $23.5M in 2018 or $4.5M less than 2Q guidance.”
