It is a great economic opportunity for the region and the State.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Donlin Gold project is located in Alaska, the second largest gold-producing state in the U.S. with approximately 39 million ounces of gold grading 2.24 grams per tonne in the measured and indicated mineral resource categories (100 per cent basis), Donlin Gold hosts one of the largest and highest-grade undeveloped open-pit gold endowments in the world.<\/p>\n<p>The planned pits in which the existing resources are sited occupy only three kilometres of an eight-kilometre mineralized belt, which itself is located on less than 5 per cent of Donlin Gold\u2019s land position.<\/p>\n<p>Current activities at Donlin Gold are focused on the drill program, optimization efforts, community outreach, and advancing the remaining State permitting actions.<\/p>\n<p>Donlin Gold is a committed partner to the Alaska Native communities both surrounding the project and within the State as a whole. This commitment underpins Donlin Gold\u2019s approach and is also reflected in the way in which the asset itself is structured.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/tanzania\">Tanzania<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
