Exceptional Drill Results: Drill results confirm consistent mineralization across multiple zones, including standout intervals up to 23.49 g/t gold, reinforcing Donlin Gold’s position as one of the most significant gold development projects globally.Strategic Resource Conversion: Following the landmark $1 billion transaction with Paulson Advisers LLC (“Paulson”), the 2025 drill program pivoted to focus on conversion of resources and geotechnical work to support the Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS) — bringing new scale and momentum to the project.Donlin Gold BFS Bids: The Request for Proposal (RFP) for the BFS was issued to top-tier qualified engineering firms, with selection expected in the fourth quarter of 2025. VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NOVAGOLD RESOURCES INC. (“NOVAGOLD” or the “Company”) (NYSE American, TSX: NG) is pleased to report that with a focus on resource conversion as well as growth, the 2025 Donlin Gold drill program has returned multiple high-grade gold intercepts that achieve both objectives. The program supports the next phase of technical work, reinforcing the renewal of momentum toward a BFS of what would be, at present estimates of scale and grade, one of America’s largest gold mines — offering shareholders exposure to an outstanding gold asset in one of the world’s most stable and mining-friendly jurisdictions. With a dedicated team of up to 80 locally hired personnel and contractors operating on-site, the 2025 drill program has successfully intersected high-grade gold mineralization across multiple zones. These results provide critical data for engineering, mine planning, and resource modelling, marking a pivotal milestone in the Company’s path toward delivering a BFS. The top five intervals from the in-pit exploration drilling include: DC25-2252 intersected 51.90 m grading 3.77 g/t gold starting at 305.60 m drilled depth. The true width of mineralization across this interval is estimated to be 47 m.DC25-2258 intersected 7.35 m grading 23.49 g/t gold starting at 525.34 m drilled depth. The true width of mineralization across this interval is estimated to be 45 m.DC25-2253 intersected 16.33 m grading 6.57 g/t gold starting at 330.91 m drilled depth, including a sub-interval of 4.52 m grading 14.02 g/t starting at 340.19 m drilled depth. The true widths of mineralization across this interval and sub-interval are estimated to be 14 m and 4 m, respectively.DC25-2257 intersected 9.12 m grading 8.32 g/t gold starting at 393.34 m drilled depth. The true width of mineralization across this interval is estimated to be 7 m.DC25-2253 intersected 6.37 m grading 10.29 g/t gold starting at 315.01 m drilled depth. The true width of mineralization across this interval is estimated to be 6 m. “It is most rewarding to see what we believe are such great returns on our investment to date in the 2025 Donlin Gold drill program”, said Greg Lang, NOVAGOLD’s President and CEO. “The consistency and strength of the high-grade gold intercepts continue to validate the exceptional quality of this asset. These results not only reinforce Donlin Gold’s standing as one of the most responsible and significant development-stage gold projects in the world, but also provide critical data needed to advance our geological modelling and engineering work. We look forward to receiving the BFS bids from top engineering firms and announcing the selected lead for the BFS work in the coming months — an essential milestone in unlocking the full value of the project for our shareholders and the communities in which we serve.” Figure 1 Donlin Gold Drill Hole Collar LocationsThe figure shows the 2025 program grid and in-pit exploration drilling, highlighting those for which assays are reported per the tables in the Appendix, and the assays that remain pending. Additionally, the planned drill holes highlighted in orange represent the in-pit geotechnical drilling that will be completed in the coming weeks. The completed drill holes, drill hole orientations, depths and significant intervals are shown at the end of this release in Tables 1 and 2 of the Appendix. Following the transformative $1 billion transaction with Paulson to acquire 50% of the Donlin Gold Project which closed on June 3 (see the news release titled, “NOVAGOLD and Paulson Advisers Complete $1 Billion Acquisition of Barrick Mining's 50% Interest in Donlin Gold - NOVAGOLD RESOURCES INC.”), NOVAGOLD and Paulson (the “Owners”) pivoted and expanded the drill program to focus on resource conversion and growth, in-pit geotechnical drilling to improve modelling for long-term stability and mine design, and material sites for construction of the access road from the upriver port to Donlin Gold. Drill Program Contributes to Advancing the Donlin Gold Project The 2025 Donlin Gold drill program was expanded to support a new resource model and the advancement of the BFS, reinforcing the project’s long-term development strategy. This year’s program primarily focused on three activities: 1. grid drilling to further develop the modifying factors and input parameters and assumptions for future mine planning; 2. in-pit exploration drilling focused on enhancing geological modelling and supporting resource conversion; and 3. in-pit geotechnical drilling to improve modelling for long-term stability and mine design, and material sites for construction of the access road from the upriver port to Donlin Gold — workstreams required for the BFS. To date, the program has included the completion of 19 grid infill holes in the East American Creek Magnetic Anomaly (ACMA) grid deposit totaling 5,079 meters, aimed at verifying short scale continuity of mineralization and improving resource confidence and key inputs for mine planning. In-pit exploration drilling comprised 24 holes totaling 10,370 meters, targeting areas of the pit containing Inferred Resources with the potential to be converted to Indicated Resources. An additional 30 holes totaling 3,000 meters of geotechnical drilling was added to the program this year contributing to pit wall stability analysis and mine design, including drilling on the material sites for construction of the access road from the Jungjuk port on the Kuskokwim River to Donlin Gold. All drilling was conducted using core methods to ensure precision and high-quality geological data. This expansion occurred to enhance geotechnical modelling and infrastructure planning, further strengthening the project’s foundation. NOVAGOLD anticipates releasing additional drill results in the coming months, which will provide further insight into the deposit’s potential and further support the development of Donlin Gold as a premier gold asset in Alaska. Select activities originally scheduled for 2025 were redirected to support the BFS, with no material impact anticipated on Donlin Gold’s budgeted expenditures. Community Engagement The 2025 drill program at Donlin Gold and other ongoing project activities continue to reflect NOVAGOLD’s deep commitment to responsible development and meaningful collaboration with Alaska Native communities. As part of this year’s expanded operations, locals from 19 Yukon-Kuskokwim (Y-K) villages were hired to support drilling activities, logistics, and environmental monitoring — underscoring the project’s role as a central economic driver. Engagement efforts extended across the Y-K region, with Donlin Gold maintaining active engagement with village corporations, tribal councils, and regional organizations to ensure transparent communication and shared benefits. These initiatives align with NOVAGOLD’s broader sustainability goals, which prioritize environmental responsibility and the preservation of traditional ways of life. Donlin Gold’s engagement efforts span over 60 communities in the Y-K region, with outreach in collaboration with Calista Corporation and The Kuskokwim Corporation. Activities and interactions include direct engagements with stakeholders, supporting and participating in cultural events, forming partnerships and creating regional programs in the key focus areas of health and safety, environment, education, and cultural preservation. Guided by transparency, respect, and long-term partnership, the Company is committed to advancing responsible development that creates long-lasting value for all stakeholders. By integrating traditional knowledge, respecting subsistence practices, and maintaining open lines of communication, Donlin Gold is setting a benchmark for responsible resource development in Alaska. These efforts strengthen trust while sharing the project’s benefits broadly. QA/QC Procedures The QA/QC procedures for the 2025 Donlin Gold project drill program and sampling protocol were developed and managed by Donlin Gold and overseen by NOVAGOLD. The chain of custody from the drill site to the sample preparation facility was continuously monitored. All samples are HQ-diameter core. Approximately 97% core recovery has been achieved during the 2025 drill program. Core was logged, cut, and sampled at site by Donlin Gold employees. Samples were primarily collected on one- to two-meter lengths. Sampled half-core was crushed and pulverized in Bureau Veritas’ sample preparation facilities in Fairbanks, Alaska. Pulps were sent to Bureau Veritas’ lab in Vancouver, British Columbia for gold assays and multi-element analysis. The pulps were then sent to an ALS Limited lab in Vancouver, British Columbia for CNL/LECO analysis. Quality control samples were inserted (standards at 5% of primary samples, blanks at 5% of primary samples and duplicates at 2.5% of primary samples) into each batch of samples. The review of the quality control samples did not indicate any bias or error. Out of bounds quality control samples were handled with appropriate reruns and investigations. There are no known factors that would materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the drill program data referred to in this release. Downhole directional surveys were completed on all reported completed holes by Boart Longyear drill operators, and collar surveys were completed by Donlin Gold staff under the supervision of Professional Licensed Surveyors from Brice Engineering LLC. Each of Bureau Veritas, ALS Limited, Boart Longyear, and Brice Engineering LLC are independent of Donlin Gold and NOVAGOLD. Scientific and Technical Information NOVAGOLD is a registrant with the SEC and is reporting its Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves in accordance with Subpart 229.1300 of Regulation S-K – Disclosure by Registrants Engaged in Mining Operations (“S-K 1300”) as of November 30, 2021. While the S-K 1300 rules are similar to National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) rules in Canada, they are not identical and therefore two reports have been produced for the Donlin Gold project. In 2020, NOVAGOLD engaged Wood Canada Limited (“Wood”) to update the Second Updated Feasibility Study on Donlin Gold completed in 2011 (the “2011 Technical Report”). This update resulted in a report titled “NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Donlin Gold Project, Alaska, USA” with an effective date of June 1, 2021 (the “2021 Technical Report”). In 2021, NOVAGOLD also engaged Wood to prepare a Donlin Gold technical report summary in accordance with S-K 1300. The resulting report is titled “S-K 1300 Technical Report Summary on the Donlin Gold Project, Alaska, USA” (“S-K 1300 Technical Report Summary”), dated November 30, 2021. Wood incorporated 2020 costs and gold price guidance to meet NOVAGOLD’s reporting requirements. The resultant 2021 Technical Report and S-K 1300 Technical Report Summary showed no material change to the previously reported mineral resources or mineral reserves. Certain scientific and technical information contained herein with respect to the Donlin Gold project is derived from the 2021 Technical Report and the S-K 1300 Technical Report Summary.

intervals and not necessarily true thickness of mineralization due to drilling at a low angle relative to the interpreted mineralization controls. True width of intercepts has been estimated based on the latest geological model and it is subject to refinement as additional data becomes available. Except where specifically disclosed, the true width of intercepts is unknown at this stage. Mineralized intervals meet or exceed 3 meters in length above 1 g/t. A maximum of 4 meters of continuous dilution (< 1 g/t) is permitted. Assays from DC25-2231, DC25-2232, DC25-2234 through DC25-2239, and DC25-2041 through DC25-2251 represent holes from the East ACMA grid infill drilling. Assays from DC25-2252 through DC25-2274 and DC25-2276 represent holes from the in-pit exploration drilling. DC25-2233 was redrilled as DC25-2235 and DC25-2240 was redrilled as DC25-2241, both due to deviation outside of acceptable limits. Assay data are not yet available from 0 m to 315.38 m in DC25-2255, 121.76 m to 241.37 m in DC25-2258, 154.11 m to 466.04 m in DC25-2259, 154.94 m to 429.77 m in DC25-2260, and all of holes DC25-2261 through DC25-2274 and DC25-2276.
