Bitcoin Miners Dominate Tuesday’s 10 Best-Performing Stocks

1. NovaGold Resources Inc. (NYSEAMERICAN:NG)

NovaGold Resources extended its winning streak for a second straight day on Tuesday, jumping 39.87 percent to close at $4.35 apiece following news that it would acquire a 50-percent stake in Donlin Gold LLC for $1 billion.

NG said in a statement that it partnered with Paulson Advisers LLC for the acquisition of Barrick’s 50-percent stake in Donlin, which owns and develops the Donlin Gold project in Alaska.

Of the total, NG will acquire the 10-percent share, increasing its total ownership in the company to 60 percent from 50 percent previously.

Paulson, on the other hand, will take the remaining 40 percent interest at a price of $800 million.

Following the closing of the transaction, the two companies target to immediately commence the various workstreams to update the Feasibility Study, including assembling a specially dedicated team to take over efforts as well as shift the program’s focus to the conversion and expansion of Donlin Gold’s reserves and resources.
