Northstar Gold ( (TSE:NSG) ) just unveiled an update.

Northstar Gold Corp. has launched a 1,200-metre diamond drilling program at its 100%-owned historic Cam Copper Mine’s Zone 2 lens in northeastern Ontario, aiming to generate a NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate and technical report on the high-grade Besshi-style VMS copper zone. The work underpins a planned “surgical mining” pilot with partner Novamera Inc., which intends to extract approximately 120,000 tonnes of copper-rich material over 31 months using large-diameter precision drilling, real-time downhole imaging and immediate backfilling to reduce dilution, surface disturbance and water discharge; with low upfront capital, a 5% revenue share to Novamera and an off-balance-sheet funding structure, the initiative could provide Northstar with a relatively low-cost, environmentally lean path to near-term production and strengthen its positioning as an early adopter of novel mining technology in the copper sector.

Spark’s Take on TSE:NSG Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:NSG is a Underperform.

Northstar Gold’s financial struggles, marked by no revenue and persistent losses, are major concerns impacting its stock score. Technical indicators show a bearish trend, adding to the negative outlook. Although the discovery of a new gold horizon offers some optimism, the poor valuation and financial performance weigh heavily on the overall score.
