Learning Together While Building Trusted Relationships
Ambler Metals Hosts Doyon Region Tribal Chiefs and NANA Region Tribal
Presidents
August 12, 2022 – Anchorage, Alaska – As part of exploration efforts to develop its sizable
holdings in the Ambler Mining District in Alaska, Ambler Metals is investing in one of its most
important partnerships; the surrounding communities of the Arctic and Bornite project sites.
Recently Ambler hosted a site visit for Chiefs from the Doyon region and NANA region tribal
leadership.
The site visit provided an excellent opportunity for open dialogue and fostered important
discussions related to the project’s positive impact throughout local economies. Tribal leaders
were able to experience first -hand a wide variety of work that is being conducted by
shareholders and expand their understanding of the long -term benefits of workforce
development spanning exploration, construction, operations, reclamation, and closure.
“One of our core values is respect – for people, the land, the culture and the environment ,”
says Ramzi Fawaz, President and CEO, Ambler Metals.
“There is no better way to learn from one another than to spend time in conversation,
listening, gaining knowledge from the long-time stewards of the land, and working together
toward common goals.”
The tribal leaders held a private roundtable discussion in conjunction with the site visit. Their
future engagement and input will help significantly shape the project so that the land and
people of the region can continue to thrive in traditional ways, wh ile bringing new economic
opportunities to the area. The project has the potential to provide hundreds of jobs throughout
its lifetime, lower transportation costs of fuel and other supplies, and fund essential
government services in a remote region of the Arctic.

expertise and expanding our relationships,” says Fawaz.
