NEW SOUTH WALES – NEW GOLD PORTFOLIO

John Bull Gold Project (Farm-in with TechGen Metals)

The John Bull Gold Project (John Bull) is an advanced exploration opportunity, located in the emerging New England district in NSW. The tenure consists of two tenements and covers some 32 sq km (Figure 1). The agreement with TechGen Metals Limited (TechGen) grants Novo an option to acquire an 80% interest in the Mick Bull tenement EL9121 and a 70% interest in the John Bull tenement EL8389.

An intensive three-week field campaign was completed in March 2025 at John Bull. This work aimed to establish both the local geology and key mineralisation controls at the main drilling area at John Bull (Figure 2), in addition to understanding the mineralisation in a more regional context.

The field programs included various scale mapping and rock chip sampling, in addition to infill and step out soil sampling to be used for characterising local geology, identifying new targets, and investigating current high-value prospects for potential depth or strike extensions or zones of higher-grade mineralisation.

Final results from the field programs are pending.

Tibooburra Gold Project (Farm-in with Manhattan Corporation)

The Tibooburra Gold Project (Tibooburra) is an advanced exploration opportunity, located in northwestern NSW and covers much of the historic Albert Goldfield. Tenure includes six granted exploration licences over 630 sq km (Figure 3). The agreement with Manhattan Corporation Limited (Manhattan) grants Novo an option to acquire a 70% interest in the tenements comprising Tibooburra.

The Tibooburra project area itself displays more than 200 historic workings and over 34 km of mineralised trend on multiple lines of workings. Several immediate targets have been delineated by previous workers including New Bendigo, Clone, Pioneer, Elizabeth Reef and Good Friday (Figure 4). However, outside of the New Bendigo prospect, little systematic modern exploration has been conducted. The area is significantly under-explored, and satellite imagery and interpretation shows abundant cover, particularly in the south.

A three-week field campaign comprising geochemical surface sampling and detailed mapping of the main ~ 3 km strike at the Clone prospect was designed to assess prospectivity of the trend, and was completed in February 2025, with all assay results returned. The field programs were designed to investigate controls on gold mineralisation and allowed Novo to design a follow up RC drilling program to validate previous drill results. Novo is anticipating that this program may significantly extend known mineralisation along strike, down dip and down-plunge.

Results from all aspects of the exploration work proved extremely promising, supporting the decision to commit to ~2,000 m of RC drilling at Clone, which is scheduled to commence in April 2025.

Mineralised late-stage NNW to NW trending moderately southwest dipping shears (interpreted as reverse faults) have been identified as the focus for much of the historical workings at Clone. Generally, the best mineralisation occurs where these structures bend in a more northerly direction, producing 1 m to 10 m wide shear zones. The main shear, the Clone Thrust, is traceable over 3 km strike and trends under cover to the NW and SE. Several splay structures are also present and are potentially part of the fertile architecture of the belt (Figure 5 and Figure 6). NNE trending cross-cutting faults are common, with interpreted sinistral movement on the main shear zones. Mineralised veining includes west dipping late-stage quartz veins which vary between laminated, massive, brecciated and sheared, and contain rare sulphide and green sericite.

Results from minus 80# mesh soil sampling has defined a 600 m long coherent > 30 ppb Au anomaly with peak results of 1,585 ppb Au and 1,440 ppb Au associated with the Clone Thrust and splay structures over the main target area.

Rock chip sampling (Figure 5 and Figure 6) yielded peak results of 89.6 g/t Au and 41.9 g/t Au from mullock dump samples at the northern end of the main Clone workings. In the southern part of the main workings, peak results include 31.4 g/t Au and 10.4 g/t Au from within the west dipping Clone Thrust (Figure 5). Several samples collected in the main area graded > 3 g/t Au.

The drill program at Clone will focus over a strike of several hundred metres and is designed to test the recently confirmed high-grade gold targets.

All compliance required for drilling is complete including a heritage survey conducted with the Tibooburra Local Aboriginal Land Council (TLALC). An Assessable Prospecting Operations (APO) application for all proposed drillholes and the northern access track was successfully approved in March 2025. An approved APO is required under the State Environmental Planning Policy when undertaking ground disturbing activities e.g. drilling or access track clearing.

Mineralisation at Clone remains open in all directions, with targeted mineralised basement trending under cover sediments to the south. The cover sediments extend for some 15 km providing opportunities for exploration targeting potential ‘blind discoveries.’

Forward Programs - NSW Projects

Novo is planning to conduct additional field reconnaissance at John Bull prior to planning approx. 1,500 m RC drilling for late Q2 2025 across priority targets.

At Tibooburra, earthworks to support the planned RC drill program will be conducted in mid April 2025 with RC drilling expected to commence in late April.

WESTERN AUSTRALIAN GOLD PORTFOLIO

Onslow District – Toolunga Project

The Toolunga Project completes a strategic landholding of 1,524 sq km targeted across the junction of major tectonic boundaries in the north of WA. The project comprises six Exploration License Applications for 634 sq km of 100% owned tenure, with a further 890 sq km in four Exploration License Applications (Figure 7) via an option arrangement with OD4 Rocklea Pty Ltd (OD4R) on the Cane River Project (under which Novo would acquire a 70% interest if the option is exercised).

The Toolunga tenure is underexplored using systematic, modern exploration technologies yet displays prospectivity for precious and base metal discovery and aligns with Novo’s corporate strategy of exploring for targets with > 1 Moz Au potential. Desktop assessment of historic data and remote area geophysics continues to develop conceptual targets for on ground follow up on grant of tenure (Figure 8).

Balla Balla Gold Project

Balla Balla is an early-stage exploration project centred on the Sholl Shear Zone (Figure 9) where Novo has identified several prospects over a 10 km trend. These include interpreted fertile structures and important splay faults of the Sholl Shear Zone that will be targeted in Novo’s maiden AC program. The program will test below shallow cover and commenced in late-March 2025.

Forward Programs – Pilbara and Onslow District

At Toolunga regional and follow-up exploration campaigns are planned to commence on tenement grant, including geophysical surveys, mapping and geochemical sampling programs over known targets to validate historic results and to rapidly advance drill targets.

Novo’s maiden AC drilling at Balla Balla will continue to completion, with results expected by the end of Q2 2025. Compliance elements of the RC drill program testing Au, PGE and base metal targets in the Karratha District are near completion. Mapping and sampling campaigns are also planned to continue along prioritised areas of the Tabba Tabba Shear Corridor in the Egina Gold Camp and at Miralga.

VICTORIAN GOLD PORTFOLIO

Belltopper Gold Project

A detailed review of historic data associated with the Missing Link Reef at Belltopper was completed. The work has assessed mining activities on the reef from as early as 1880, including geological and production information, which will be utilised to support future aspects of the Exploration Target at Belltopper.

CORPORATE

Investment in San Cristobal Mining Inc.

Novo continues to hold 1.24 m shares in privately-owned San Cristobal Mining Inc. (San Cristobal) for a total value of A$20 million (C$17.86 million).

In January 2025, San Cristobal declared a dividend of US$0.756 per common share and Novo received US$935,000 (C$1,351,000).

Project Generation

Novo continues to focus its efforts on a dedicated and disciplined project generation to identify value accretive opportunities across targeted gold and copper assets that complement the Company’s current portfolio and ASX and TSX investor base.

Comet Well and Purdy’s North

Novo’s board of directors has resolved to seek interest from parties to acquire or be part of a joint venture in relation to, the Comet Well and Purdy’s North project.

As part of this decision, a sale process of the Mechanical Ore Sorter is underway.

Relinquishment of Tenure

The Company’s exploration programs across key Pilbara areas continue to be successful in identifying priority targets for exploration follow-up drilling, along with identifying tenure that provides little further exploration value or follow-up.

As a result, tenure which does not complement Novo’s exploration strategy continues to be relinquished to reduce land tenure holding costs.

The Company currently manages an estimated ~5,200 sq km of 100% owned tenure, of which 465 sq km is under Joint Venture. In addition, ~1,780 sq km of tenure forms the Egina Joint Venture (De Grey) or Harding Dam Battery Metal Joint Venture (SQM Priority tenements), both managed by JV partners. Novo has reduced annual holding costs by entering into joint ventures, or by relinquishing or divesting tenure of limited prospectivity.

Financial Update

As of 31 March 2025, Novo had a cash balance of A$10 million (C$9 million).

In addition, Novo has an investment portfolio of shares held in ASX-listed and unlisted companies that is valued at approximately A$35.6 million (C$31.9 million), consisting of:

*An Exploration Target as defined in the JORC Code (2012) is a statement or estimate of the exploration potential of a mineral deposit in a defined geological setting where the statement or estimate, quoted as a range of tonnes and a range of grade (or quality), relates to mineralisation for which there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource. Accordingly, these figures are not Mineral Resource or Ore Reserve estimates as defined in the JORC Code (2012). The potential quantities and grades referred to above are conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. These figures are based on the interpreted continuity of mineralisation and projection into unexplored ground often around historical workings. The Exploration Target has been prepared in accordance with the JORC Code (2012), as detailed in the Company’s ASX announcement released on 25 September 2024 (available to view at www.asx.com.au). The Tonnage range for the exploration target is 1.5Mt to 2.1Mt, the Grade range is 6.6g/t Au to 8.4g/t Au and the Ounces range from 320koz Au to 570 koz Au. The Company confirms that it is not aware of any new information that material affects the information included in the original market announcement and that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the original market announcement continue to apply and have not materially changed. Dr Christopher Doyle (MAIG) and Dr Simon Dominy (FAusIMM CPGeo; FAIG RPGeo), are the qualified persons, as defined under National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, responsible for, and having reviewed and approved, the technical information relating to the Exploration Target.
