A base-metals exploration and development company working in the remote Ambler Mining District of northwest Alaska, where it is advancing the Arctic and Bornite projects rich in copper, zinc, lead, gold and silver. Born out of NOVAGOLD Resources, it launched on its own in 2012 as NovaCopper before renaming itself Trilogy Metals in 2016 to reflect the many metals across its projects. The name nods to a "trilogy" of deposits in one remote corner of the state.
