Nova Minerals Outlines Estelle 15,000m Exploration and Project Advancement Plan
Anchorage Alaska, May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nova Minerals Limited ('Nova' or the 'Company') (NASDAQ: NVA) (ASX: NVA) (FRA: QM3) ) is pleased to announce that preparations are now well underway for the upcoming field season at its over 500km2 flagship Estelle Project located in the Tintina Gold Belt in Alaska. A 15,000m drill program is set to commence shortly which will focus on key targets at RPM, Stibium, and Korbel. Highlights Helicopters, pad building crews, drillers, and geologists are now onsite to commence preparations for the 2025 field program, with drilling expected to commence in the coming weeks (Figures 1 and 2). The 2025 field campaign will concentrate on infill and expansion drilling at RPM and Korbel, supporting the advancement of feasibility studies and streamlining the permitting process (Figure 3, 4, 5 and 8). Initial drilling will also commence at the Stibium prospect, where surface sampling programs have identified an extensive 800m long by 400m wide gold-antimony rich zone with results up to 141 g/t Au and 60.5% Sb (ASX Announcement: 14 January 2025), aiming to establish a maiden mineral resource estimate for both gold and antimony (Figures 6 and 7). A comprehensive multi-element surface sampling exploration program will be carried out across the broader Estelle project area (Figure 9). Nova's application for potential U.S. Department of Defense funding—aimed at accelerating the establishment of a mineral resource estimate, as well as processing, refining, and eventual antimony production at Estelle—continues to advance. Pending a successful outcome of its funding application, the Company intends to deploy additional diamond drill rigs to expand the 2025 drilling program. This would allow for extended drilling at the Stibium prospect and the potential commencement of initial drill testing at the highly prospective Styx target. A majority of the drilling undertaken this year will be assayed for gold, antimony, and a suite of multi-elements, with results to be released to the market progressively as laboratory assays are received. Nova CEO, Mr Christopher Gerteisen commented: 'We are excited to commence the 2025 field season with a 15,000-metre drilling program aimed at unlocking further value across our Estelle Project. This campaign will focus on advancing the RPM and Korbel gold deposits toward feasibility and permitting, while also initiating a maiden resource at the Stibium prospect for both gold and antimony. With both metals trading near historic highs, the strategic significance and potential economic return of these near-surface assets underscore Nova's strong growth trajectory and long-term value proposition.' 2025 Field Program Preparations Preparations are now well underway for the upcoming field season at Nova's Estelle Project in Alaska. The Whiskey Bravo airstrip has been cleared, and over the past few weeks, fuel and supplies have been flown in, with deliveries still ongoing. Generators are up and running, the camp has been de-winterized, and pad construction and support crews, along with the geology team, have begun arriving on site. The first helicopter arrived this week, and initial drill teams have been mobilized, with more expected in the coming weeks. They will be preparing 2 diamond drill rigs and the company-owned reverse circulation (RC) rig, with drilling anticipated to begin, weather permitting, in the coming weeks. Over the winter, the RC rig was also fitted with a new compressor, to enable deeper drilling up to 100 meters. With both gold and antimony prices near all-time highs, Nova is set to significantly ramp up its operations this season. Up to 40 people will be housed at our fully operational camp, which will serve as the central hub for drill teams, providing logistical support and ensuring all necessary resources are in place for the season ahead. Figure 1. Camp and pad building crew on site Figure 2. Preparations for the 2025 field season are well underway 2025 Program Plans To ensure cost efficiency, the 2025 drilling campaign will utilize two diamond drill rigs alongside the Company-owned reverse circulation (RC) rig. The program is scheduled to run for a minimum of three months during the Alaskan summer, taking advantage of near 24-hour daylight to enable continuous, round-the-clock drilling on a rotational basis, seven days a week. While the 2025 program is primarily focused at RPM, Korbel, and Stibium, the drilling strategy remains dynamic and will be continuously evaluated. Adjustments will be made as needed based on initial drill core observations as the campaign advances, and additional diamond drill rigs will be added if the Company is successful in its application for U.S. Department of Defense funding to fast track its antimony assets. A majority of the drilling undertaken this year will be assayed for gold, antimony, and a suite of multi-elements, with results to be released to the market progressively as laboratory assays are received. Figure 3. Map of the Estelle project property showing the areas targeted for drilling in 2025 RPM Approximately 10,000m of drilling is planned at RPM, with four primary objectives: 1. Further definition of the RPM Deposit (Figure 4). a. Test strike extensions to the east to test below a heavily fractured zone (160m @ 0.6 g/t Au) from hole RPM-004 (ASX Announcement: 18 October 2021). This interval was hosted in hornfels and drilling plans to intercept the hornfels/intrusive contact as intrusive was observed below in RPM-003. The hornfels/intrusive contact hosts a bulk of the high-grade mineralization encountered at RPM, and testing this eastern extent will follow an observed fault zone that appears to be the primary pathway for late-stage mineralization at RPM. b. Upgrade the measured and indicated resources at the main RPM deposit and test intrusive dikes to the south. c. Continue to expand the RPM resource in the valley to the west, by targeting the hornfels/intrusive contact. 2. Exploration drilling to the north of the current RPM North deposit targeting geochemical anomalies along the ridge line (Figure 5). 3. Reverse-circulation (RC) drilling in the RPM glacial debris lobe area, where surface sampling in 2024 identified rock samples up to 52.3 g/t Au and till samples averaging 1.1 g/t Au over a 1.7 km strike length (ASX Announcement: 3 February 2025 and Figure 5). 4. Hydrology wells to improve knowledge of surface and groundwater hydrology around the deposit, and to expand environmental baseline surveying to advance feasibility studies while also positioning the project for future permitting. Figure 4. 2025 drill target areas at/near the RPM deposit Figure 5. 2025 exploration drill targets outside the main RPM deposit zone Stibium Approximately 3,000m of drilling is planned at the Stibium prospect, targeting the establishment of a maiden mineral resource estimate for both gold and antimony (Figures 6 and 7). Surface sampling has defined a substantial mineralised zone, approximately 800m long and 400m wide, with high-impact results including (ASX Announcement: 14 January 2025): 12 rock samples > 30% Sb with a high of 60.5% Sb 10 soil samples > 0.1% Sb with a high of 2.8% Sb 16 rock samples > 5 g/t Au with a high of 141 g/t Au 35 soil samples > 1 g/t Au with a high of 25.6 g/t Au This target will be expanded to include further diamond drill rigs if the Company is successful in its application for U.S. Department of Defense funding to fast track its antimony assets. Figure 6. Antimony soils heat map with rock samples highlighting resource drill targets Figure 7. Gold soils heat map with rock samples highlighting resource drill targets Korbel Approximately 2,000m of drilling is planned at Korbel, where Nova has already defined a multi-million-ounce, bulk-tonnage gold resource. This campaign will primarily focus on evaluating a potential higher-grade starter pit at Korbel Main, with the flexibility to extend the drilling to additional high-priority targets across the broader valley. Figure 8. Map of the Korbel Valley area showing potential 2025 drill targets Surface Exploration Sampling and Mapping Program An extensive regional surface exploration program will run in parallel with drilling, with field teams conducting geological mapping, geochemical sampling, and target delineation across the broader Estelle Project area. This work will specifically focus on identifying and advancing new high-priority prospects to support future resource growth. High-priority areas will include adding coverage north of Korbel, increasing sample density between Portage Pass and Tomahawk, and follow-up mapping and sampling at West Wing, Styx, and the greater Train area (Figure 9). Korbel, West Wing, and Styx all offer a good opportunity to discover increased mineralization near the intrusive/hornfels (Kahiltna Flysch) contacts. In addition, infill sampling will be conducted at RPM and Styx. Figure 9. Map of the Estelle project highlighting areas for surface sampling work in 2025 Feasibility Study Test-Work Alongside its ongoing exploration and drilling programs, Nova is making significant progress in its metallurgical, environmental, and process engineering test work.

Nova Minerals Stock Down 12% But Insiders Still In AU$127k Profit
Insiders who purchased Nova Minerals Limited (ASX:NVA) shares in the past 12 months are unlikely to be deeply impacted by the stock's 12% decline over the past week. After accounting for the recent loss, the AU$556.3k worth of shares they purchased is now worth AU$683.6k, suggesting a good return on their investment. Although we don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, we do think it is perfectly logical to keep tabs on what insiders are doing. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider purchase was by CEO & Executive Director Christopher Gerteisen for AU$200k worth of shares, at about AU$0.24 per share. Even though the purchase was made at a significantly lower price than the recent price (AU$0.29), we still think insider buying is a positive. Because the shares were purchased at a lower price, this particular buy doesn't tell us much about how insiders feel about the current share price. Nova Minerals insiders may have bought shares in the last year, but they didn't sell any. You can see the insider transactions (by companies and individuals) over the last year depicted in the chart below. By clicking on the graph below, you can see the precise details of each insider transaction! Check out our latest analysis for Nova Minerals Nova Minerals is not the only stock that insiders are buying. For those who like to find small cap companies at attractive valuations, this free list of growing companies with recent insider purchasing, could be just the ticket. I like to look at how many shares insiders own in a company, to help inform my view of how aligned they are with insiders. I reckon it's a good sign if insiders own a significant number of shares in the company. From our data, it seems that Nova Minerals insiders own 5.9% of the company, worth about AU$5.6m. But they may have an indirect interest through a corporate structure that we haven't picked up on. Whilst better than nothing, we're not overly impressed by these holdings. It doesn't really mean much that no insider has traded Nova Minerals shares in the last quarter. However, our analysis of transactions over the last year is heartening. We'd like to see bigger individual holdings. However, we don't see anything to make us think Nova Minerals insiders are doubting the company. While it's good to be aware of what's going on with the insider's ownership and transactions, we make sure to also consider what risks are facing a stock before making any investment decision. At Simply Wall St, we've found that Nova Minerals has 6 warning signs (3 are concerning!) that deserve your attention before going any further with your analysis.
