Heraldo de Madrid - Alaska Energy Metals Hails Positive Presidential Executive Order Concerning Resource Development In Alaska

AEMC President & CEO Gregory Beischer commented: "A new era has dawned in Alaska. The new administration is aware of the country's vulnerability to metal supply chain disruption and is taking concrete steps to help Alaska achieve its potential to help with economic and national security for the country. AEMC's Nikolai project is already among the largest nickel resources globally and contains four other critical and strategic metals. We believe our project is likely to get strong support and will play a key role in achieving the new administration's long-term goals concerning critical metal onshoring."

By an Executive Order the President has made sweeping changes that will positively affect resource development in Alaska. The entire Executive Order can be viewed at this link. The order addresses all Alaska resources including oil, gas, minerals, forestry and fisheries.

Highlights for Alaska's mining industry include:

• Recognition that Alaska contains abundant, untapped mineral resources.

• USA to fully avail itself of Alaska's vast lands and resources for the benefit of the Nation.

• Consider building national stockpiles of Critical and Strategic metals.

• Maximize the development of production on Federal and State lands in Alaska.

• Promote liquid natural gas production from the North Slope oilfields (potentially providing low cost energy for mining projects).

• Reopen the regulatory process that would allow construction of the Ambler road, providing access to the rich mineral districts of the northwestern part of Alaska.
