Last update: 23 minutes ago

Mining Watch: PolarX says it has mapped a 3.5-kilometer copper-gold anomaly at its Alaska Range project, with surface samples reporting up to 8% copper and 19 g/t gold and follow-up mapping and a magnetotellurics survey planned. Oil & Gas Policy: The Trump administration is pushing to speed permitting for oil developments inside the National Petroleum Reserve–Alaska, aiming for faster reviews that could cut timelines for projects like ConocoPhillips’ Willow—drawing fresh fire from environmental groups. Education Funding: Alaska’s school funding fight is heating up as lawmakers and local leaders argue the formula is shifting costs onto property taxpayers; a proposal would cap local required contributions at 2%. Local Governance: Anchorage’s JBER is seeking public input on a proposed 7-mile barbed-wire fence along base-adjacent neighborhoods, raising concerns for residents and wildlife. Politics Beyond Alaska: Trump’s latest MAGA infighting targets Rep. Lauren Boebert over her support for Thomas Massie, underscoring how loyalty is reshaping GOP primaries.
