History
editNorthern Star Resources (NSR) was founded in December 2003 to search for and develop ore deposits in the East Kimberley region of Western Australia.[2] It was listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in December 2003.[3] In July 2010, it became a gold miner with the purchase of Paulsens Gold Mine.[4]
In October 2020, a merger between NSR and Saracen Metal Holdings, its joint venture partner in the Super Pit gold mine, was proposed. The merger was completed in February 2021 when Saracen was de-listed from the Australian Securities Exchange.[5][6]
