Grande Porta Stock Price, News & Analysis

Grande Portage Resources (OTCQB:GPTRF) has announced significant progress in technical and permitting initiatives for its New Amalga Gold Project in Southeast Alaska. The company has secured a five-year Fish Habitat Permit from Alaska Department of Fish & Game and completed several key technical studies including an initial Geotechnical and Hydrogeological Review by SRK Consulting and an aerial LiDAR scan.

The company has contracted two independent ore offtake studies and retained Ensight LLC as its NEPA consultant. The project envisions a small-footprint underground mining operation without an ore processing plant, leveraging its strategic location near tidewater and existing paved highway for third-party processing.

A recent MOU between Alaska and the Federal Permitting Council could help streamline the project's permitting process through the FAST-41 program.

Grande Portage Resources (OTCQB:GPTRF) has submitted an easement application to the State of Alaska for its New Amalga Gold project. The proposal includes development of a 1.3-mile (2 km) gravel road and two equipment staging areas.

The planned road development will reduce helicopter shuttle distances for drilling equipment and supplies by over 60% compared to the current staging area in Juneau Mendenhall Valley. This initial segment represents approximately one-third of the total distance needed from Glacier Highway to the project site.

The company envisions future development of a small-footprint underground mining operation without on-site processing facilities, leveraging the project's proximity to existing infrastructure for third-party processing.

The permit covers installation of environmental monitoring infrastructure, including meteorological data collection stations, stream gauging sensors, and communication systems.

The company has completed fieldwork including fish-habitat stream identification and wetlands mapping. Notably, the project's design excludes on-site ore processing, instead planning for off-site third-party processing due to the site's proximity to tidewater and existing infrastructure. This approach aims to minimize environmental impact by eliminating the need for a concentrator, tailings facility, and permanent waste rock storage.

Grande Portage Resources announced significant progress in the development of the Cascade Point Marine Terminal near Juneau, Alaska. The Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (DOT&PF) is initiating a $20-30 million design-build contract for Phase 1 of a passenger ferry terminal at the site. The project includes earthworks, marine area materials, bridge replacement, and year-round access road construction. Grande Portage and Goldbelt Inc. (site owner) have a Letter of Intent to develop a freight barge terminal for ore transportation from the New Amalga Gold Project. While the ore terminal can be developed independently, the passenger ferry terminal's infrastructure development will reduce time and costs for the future ore terminal construction, creating synergies for both projects and benefiting the local economy.

Grande Portage Resources (GPTRF) has staked 64 new federal claims adjacent to its existing New Amalga Gold project in Southeast Alaska. These claims will accommodate future surface facilities for a potential underground mine, including infrastructure for electrical utilities, equipment maintenance, ore sorting, and other operational needs. The company plans to utilize off-site processing through a third party, leveraging the project's proximity to tidewater and existing paved highway (less than 4 miles away). This strategy eliminates the need for on-site ore processing facilities, reducing construction costs and environmental impact. Key benefits include no on-site tailings disposal, no permanent waste rock storage, and no chemical reagents usage. Environmental studies are ongoing to optimize facility layout while protecting local ecosystems.
