Highlights
Nova Minerals CEO, Mr. Christopher Gerteisen, commented:
“"I am pleased to announce that our 2026 field season is now underway and continuing to ramp up, with up to four drill rigs focused on expanding our gold and antimony resources. The Company continues to execute on the Department of Defense-funded antimony project, supported by US$43.4 million in funding, with procurement of key mining and processing equipment now complete. Antimony ore extraction and process plant construction remain on schedule to commence this year.
In parallel, we have successfully completed a ZTEM geophysical survey, which will significantly enhance our targeting capabilities and support our generative exploration programs. These programs are now underway with the objective of making new discoveries and advancing more than 20 existing prospects across the Estelle Gold and Critical Minerals Project, which spans over 200 square miles.
These exciting operational milestones, combined with the successful completion of our U.S. redomicile, represent a transformational period for Nova Minerals as we continue to advance rapidly toward antimony and gold production. We are building momentum on multiple fronts and remain focused on creating long-term value for our shareholders while strengthening America's domestic supply of critical minerals and precious metals."
