Northern Dynasty: Pebble Partnership Concludes Summer Work Program and Comments on Wildfire Situation in Alaska

Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (TSX:NDM)(NYSE American:NAK) ("Northern Dynasty" or the "Company") reports that its 100%-owned U.S-based subsidiary Pebble Limited Partnership ("Pebble Partnership" or "PLP") has concluded its 2022 summer work program

The six-week helicopter supported program began in mid-May and featured a five-person field team. The main activities of the work program included site care and maintenance and inspection and permanent closure of select drill holes where the collection of baseline hydrology data for the site has been completed.

All field crew members and PLP's onsite field supervisor are residents of the nearby communities of Kokhanok, Iliamna, and Newhalen. Work was conducted with support from the Alaska Peninsula Corporation and Iliamna Development Corporation.

"I want to thank our work crew who completed our summer work program as scheduled," said John Shively, CEO of the Pebble Partnership. "Their reclamation work is exemplary."

"I also want to express our appreciation to the brave men and women who are battling these record-breaking wildfires around our state and who did their best to protect our property. We have made a preliminary assessment of the damage and are in the process of implementing a cleanup plan," Mr. Shively added.

The team plans to begin, as soon as possible, a cleanup program of the logistical storage site, located 17 miles from the community of Iliamna which was damaged by the wildfires burning in southwest Alaska. This site is used to store equipment and material. It was empty of personnel at the time of the wildfire.

Alaska has suffered record-breaking wildfires this year, caused by lightning strikes and hot, dry conditions, with more acreage burned faster than any other year on record.

A Look at Historical Copper Prices (Updated 2024)

Copper has had a volatile few years; however, amid various ups and downs, prices for the red metal hit an all-time high on May 20, 2024, trading at US$5.20 per pound on the COMEX.

Interestingly, by looking backwards it’s easy to see that this spike was an expected feature of the long-term picture for copper prices. The red metal has rebounded after a downtrend from about 2011 to 2015, and over the last few decades prices have increased even more dramatically.

Case in point — at the time of its new high in May 2024, the copper price has increased over 500 percent since January 2000. Although this impressive major increase doesn't account for inflation, it's still a sizeable gain. Let's take a deeper dive into copper prices going back even further.

How to Invest in Copper (Updated 2024)

Copper has long been held up as a key indicator of global economic health, and as the world electrifies it's taking on a new shine, making it a potentially compelling choice for green-minded investors.

Often called Dr. Copper, copper is one of the most followed base metals, and its high ductility and electrical conductivity make it the third most consumed industrial metal, behind iron ore and aluminum, as per the US Geological Survey.

Given its attributes, copper is often used for electrical purposes such as power transmission and generation. And like its base metal sibling nickel, it has a major role in the electric vehicle revolution, with experts at S&P Global expecting consumption of copper to jump 20 percent by 2035 due to demand from the green energy market.
