Nova Minerals Corp Successfully Completes U.S. Redomicile and Kicks Off 2026 Field Season with Exciting Exploration Updates
Nova Minerals Completes U.S. Redomicile, Kicks Off Ambitious 2026 Field Season
Anchorage, Alaska, June 22, 2026 — Nova Minerals Corp (“Nova Minerals” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: NVA | ASX: NVA) has successfully completed its redomicile to the United States, marking a significant milestone for the company as it embarks on an ambitious field season in 2026. With exploration and development activities now in full swing, Nova is poised to enhance its position in the gold and critical minerals market.
Key Developments
The company’s common stock and listed warrants are now trading on the NYSE American under the ticker symbols “NVA” and “NVAWS,” while Chess Depositary Interests (CDIs) are available on the ASX under the ticker symbol “NVA.” This transition is expected to bolster Nova’s visibility and accessibility to U.S. investors.
In early June, drilling commenced at the Stibium antimony-gold prospect, targeting stibnite-bearing veins identified at the surface. Following this, gold drilling began on June 17 from a new pad at the northern end of the main RPM ridge, focusing on gold geochemical anomalies. The 2026 RPM program aims to explore new zones along the two-mile-long ridge while advancing resource definition at the RPM North and RPM Valley deposits.
A major geophysical survey has also been completed, covering nearly 2,000 line miles with Z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic (ZTEM) technology. This survey has identified numerous reduced intrusion-related gold systems (RIRGS) across the region, promising to enhance exploration targeting at RPM and West Wing.
Infrastructure and Investment
As seasonal conditions improve, field crews are actively engaged in prospect mapping, sampling, and generative exploration programs, primarily in the greater RPM area, West Wing, and Portage Pass. Approximately six miles of trail have been established from the airstrip toward Stibium, with ongoing construction to improve access.
In a strategic move, Nova has increased its investment in Amara Minerals, participating in a A$500,000 share placement. This investment not only provides exposure to Amara’s gold-antimony projects in Australia but also secures a right of first refusal over antimony offtake.
CEO’s Vision
Nova Minerals CEO, Mr. Christopher Gerteisen, expressed enthusiasm about the company’s progress: “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.”
Gerteisen emphasized the significance of the ZTEM geophysical survey, stating it will significantly enhance targeting capabilities and support generative exploration programs aimed at discovering new prospects across the Estelle Gold and Critical Minerals Project, which spans over 200 square miles.
“This transformational period for Nova Minerals is marked by exciting operational milestones as we advance toward antimony and gold production,” he added. “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.”
