(TSX: NDM; NYSE MKT: NAK) (\"Northern Dynasty\" or the \"Company\") has been made aware of a short and distort campaign by Kerrisdale Capital which has recently published a negative opinion piece the central theme of which is that Northern Dynasty's massive copper/gold project in Alaska is uneconomic. Northern Dynasty will be responding with a preliminary rebuttal which will appear on its website by the end of the week. The rebuttal will expose the many inaccuracies and outright misstatements in the Kerrisdale report. Northern Dynasty's Pebble Project is indisputably one of the world's largest undeveloped copper/gold deposits with a potential mine life which is measured in decades. Kerrisdale cites no technical or scientific studies whatsoever and relies on many unnamed persons who were purported to have been involved with the project several years ago. Investors should not rely on the Kerrisdale report and should await the Company's detailed response now in progress.\n\nAbout Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd.\n\nNorthern Dynasty is a mineral exploration and development company based in Vancouver, Canada. Northern Dynasty's principal asset is the Pebble Project in southwest Alaska, USA, an initiative to develop one of the world's most important mineral resources.\n\nRonald W.
