Report for quarter ended 30 June 2019
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Nova Minerals Limited (“Nova” or the “Company”) continued its fast-track exploration strategy at the District Scale Estelle Gold Project in Alaska to take it to its maiden inferred resource in the September quarter to outline the size and scope of the project area, achieving significant milestones during the Quarter, including running IP and commencement of this resource drilling to define the resource. The maiden resource is one of 15 known large prospects across the project area.
In addition, At the Estelle Oxide project Nova’s 2018 mapping campaign conducted by Pacific Rim Geological Consulting of Fairbanks Alaska demonstrated that higher gold values are associated with bismuth telluride and arsenopyrite mineral phases and this mineralogy is hosted by sheeted quartz veins containing narrow alteration selvages (Figure 1). These geological observations are consistent with observations in the published research (Goldfarb et al., 2007) for gold mineralization that fits the Intrusive-Related Gold Systems (IRGS) genetic model. Similar IRGS deposits in the region is the 9.2 million oz Au Fort Knox mine or the 6.0 million oz Au Dublin Gulch project both located within the Tintina Gold Province (Figures 2) (ASX: 19 June 2019)

Furthermore in relation to our gold portfolio, Newmont Goldcorp ran a heritage survey that was completed over the Officer Hill and Paris prospects in April 2019. Newmont Goldcorp received the Sacred Site Clearance Certificate from the Central Land Council (CLC) in June. Drilling commencement was subsequently announced to the ASX on the 17 July 2019 (Figure 3).

The Company is also at the backend of the Snow Lake Resources Ltd. Listing on the CSE. The Snow Lake team continued to progress with desktop works and initial discussions with strategic investor, off-take and project development partners, with the Company executives attending strategic meetings, to further advance interest from such strategic partners for the potential full project development in the quickest time as practical.
Nova has mandated KPG Capital & Co to act as advisor in negotiating the potential sale or Joint Venture with interested parties to achieve maximum value from Windy Fork REE Project to enhance the company’s shareholder value.
The Nova board is currently in discussions with the Halcyon Resources Pty Ltd in relation to extracting value from its interest the Tambellup Kaolin Deposit, which is High Purity Alumina (HPA) and high purity silica from kaolin clay using their innovative production method, the Griffin Process.
In addition to the placement of $500,000 to professional and sophisticated investors in early July 2019, the Company subsequently announced that it had accepted $2,508,000 million from a a significantly oversubscribed Share Purchase Plan, , which after much work has taken place now puts Nova in a strong financial position to fast track its project portfolio. Shares under the placement and SPP were offered at 2 cents per share.
The milestones achieved this Quarter reinforces the Company is genuinely on track and continues delivering on its strategy of creating value for shareholders. Nova remains confident that key upcoming milestones will prove successful to demonstrate the resource and exploration scale of the District Scale Estelle Gold Project and the further potential to

PROJECT OVERVIEW
ESTELLE GOLD PROJECT
The Estelle is a district scale gold project with a 2.2 – 5.3 million ounce gold exploration target (ASX Announcement 6 December 2018) on one of 15 prospects which sits adjacent to Goldmining Inc. Whistler project (9.5Moz AuEq) and in the same assemblage of rocks that hosts Northern Dynasty’s giant Pebble copper-gold-molybdenum-silver deposit (105 Moz Au).
A direct correlation exists between gold grade and vein density at the Oxide prospect (ASX: 19 June 2019) similarly reported at the Fort Knox (+ 4 Moz) and Dublin Gulch (+ 6 Moz) RIRGS deposits (Hart, 2007). Study results suggest that the 1) association of Au with Bi-Te, 2) association of Au with sheeted veins containing arsenopyrite, and 3) restriction of alteration to narrow selvages adjacent to veins at the Estelle Property are consistent with the genetic deposit model for RIRGS deposits*.

Prioritised Systematic Exploration Strategy
The Company’s ranked and prioritised systematic exploration strategy and activities at Estelle are guided by an exploration “Project Pipeline” process to maximise the probability of multiple major discoveries ( Table 1 )( Figure 2 and 4 ). Each Milestone is defined by a specific deliverable and has each criteria needs to be ticked to determine which prospect must pass through before moving to the next Milestone. Economic criteria and probability of success increase as projects move along the pipeline. The methodology helps to ensure work is carried out across all stages of the process, cost are kept minimal and that focus is kept on the best quality targets and that the pipeline is kept full with early Milestone projects.
