13:00 Uhr  |  CNW

BOISE, Nov. 14, 2024 - Perpetua Resources Corp. (Nasdaq: PPTA) (TSX: PPTA) ("Perpetua Resources" or "Perpetua" or the "Company") announced today that its unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the period ended September 30, 2024 were filed. For details, please see the Company's filings available on EDGAR and SEDAR.

Perpetua Resources' vision is to provide the U.S. with a domestic source of the critical mineral antimony, develop one of the largest and highest-grade open pit gold mines in the country and restore an abandoned brownfield site. Perpetua Resources is focused on advancing the permitting for the Stibnite Gold Project ("Stibnite Gold Project" or "Project") through the National Environmental Policy Act ("NEPA") process and construction readiness for the Project.

Third Quarter 2024 and Recent Highlights:

  • Zero lost time incidents or reportable environmental spills.
  • United States Forest Service ("USFS") published the Final Environmental Impact Statement ("FEIS") and issued a Draft Record of Decision ("DROD") for the Stibnite Gold Project.
  • The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service issued its Final Biological Opinion on September 6, 2024 and the National Marine Fisheries Service issued its Final Biological Opinion on October 7, 2024.
  • Engaged RBC Capital Markets and Endeavour Financial to assist with the evaluation of potential strategic and financing opportunities and to support the Company's application process in connection with the Export-Import Bank of the United States ("U.S. EXIM") $1.8 billion Letter of Interest received in April 2024.

"Perpetua Resources continued to gain momentum in the third quarter of 2024 and reached another major milestone with the U.S. Forest Service publishing a Draft Record of Decision and Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Stibnite Gold Project," said Jon Cherry, President and CEO of Perpetua Resources. "We were excited to see the Draft Record of Decision outline the decision to authorize the project plan and look forward to delivering a win-win-win for Idaho, the environment, and America's national security."

Permitting and Construction Readiness Activities Update:
On September 6, 2024, the USFS published the FEIS and a DROD with respect to the Project. The publication of the DROD commenced a 45-day pre-decisional objection period, which expired on October 21, 2024. The objection period will be followed by another 45-day resolution period prior to the publication of the final Record of Decision ("ROD"). The resolution period is expected to expire on or about December 5, 2024, which may be extended by the USFS in its sole discretion. Based on the USFS schedule published in October 2024, the ROD is anticipated to be published by the end of 2024. Perpetua also continued to advance work on several ancillary permits which are being progressed in parallel with the NEPA process. Construction Readiness activities during the third quarter focused on basic, value and detailed engineering for the Project.

About Perpetua Resources and the Stibnite Gold Project
Perpetua Resources Corp., through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is focused on the exploration, site restoration and redevelopment of gold-antimony-silver deposits in the Stibnite-Yellow Pine district of central Idaho that are encompassed by the Stibnite Gold Project. The Project is one of the highest-grade, open pit gold deposits in the United States and is designed to apply a modern, responsible mining approach to restore an abandoned mine site and produce both gold and the only mined source of antimony in the United States. Further advancing Perpetua Resources' ESG and sustainable mining goals, the Project will be powered by one of the lowest carbon emissions grids in the nation and a portion of the antimony produced from the Project will be supplied to Ambri, a U.S.-based company commercializing a low-cost liquid metal battery essential for the low-carbon energy transition. Perpetua Resources has been awarded a Technology Investment Agreement ("TIA") of $59.2 million in Defense Production Act Title III ("DPA") funding to advance construction readiness and permitting of the Project. Antimony trisulfide from Stibnite is the only known domestic source of antimony that can meet U.S. defense needs for many small arms, munitions, and missile types. In addition to the company's commitments to transparency, accountability, environmental stewardship, safety and community engagement, Perpetua Resources adopted formal ESG commitments which can be found here.

Forward-Looking Information and Cautionary Note

Investors should be aware that the publication by the USFS of the FEIS and the draft ROD, and the publication of the USFS permitting schedule, does not indicate any commitments on the part of the USFS with regard to the content or timing of a final ROD. The draft ROD is subject to a 45-day objection period, followed by a 45-day resolution period, which may be extended by the USFS in its sole discretion. Furthermore, the USFS is not bound by the permitting schedule and anticipated milestones may be delayed materially or not be satisfied. In addition, investors should be aware that the U.S. EXIM Letter of Interest is non-binding and conditional, and does not represent a financing commitment. A funding commitment is conditional upon completing the application, due diligence and underwriting process and receiving all required Project approvals. Additionally, funding under the DPA TIA is available only for the specified costs related to permitting, environmental baseline data monitoring, environmental and technical studies, and advancing construction readiness and is not available to fund the Company's costs under its Administrative Settlement and Order on Consent obligations and certain corporate expenses.
