Northern Star Resources is an Australian gold mining company with operations in Western Australia and Alaska.
History

In October 2020, a merger between NSR and Saracen Mineral 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.[4][5]
