ASX RELEASE 10 November 2025

2025 AGM - Letter from Nova Chairman, Mr. Richard Beazley

Dear fellow shareholders

During the past year, our seventh year operating at Estelle, we believe that Nova has definitively matured in its mission to transform Estelle into a world class, tier one, global gold producer and to potentially help secure a US domestic supply chain for the strategic mineral antimony, from mining to a refined product.

In future years looking back over this period, it may be celebrated as an inflection point in the growth of the Company. Events and activities have seen a new phase of scale, opportunity and national significance come to fruition which appears to have generated an anticipation for the Board, the Nova Minerals team and our shareholders on achieving our mission.

The operations saw the successful completion of the highly targeted 2024 resource and extensional drilling program at RPM, which delivered additional world-class, thick, high-grade intercepts that continue to strengthen the development story of RPM. With these outstanding results, we now eagerly await the assays pending from the 2025 drilling program, which are expected to further define and expand the mineral resources at RPM. The culmination of this work and the positive metallurgical studies will feed into next year’s feasibility studies to target a final investment decision to mine.

In parallel with the active drilling programs, the Company has maintained a strong focus on advancing surface exploration activities targeting both gold and antimony, which have continued to deliver numerous high-grade results. This work has highlighted the Stibium and Styx prospects as significant strategic antimony assets, each with the potential to become stand-alone projects operating alongside the RPM and Korbel gold developments. We believe that the encouraging results from the initial ore-sorting trials completed this year have further strengthened the emerging antimony opportunity.

The Nova Minerals team continues to be strongly dedicated to stakeholder engagement and in particular working with the Alaskan Government on our shared commitments to building the foundational infrastructure needed to realise the Estelle projects’ full potential. These key enablers include the West Susitna Access Road development, Port Mackenzie upgrade and Alaska LNG which will support year-round access, global logistics and clean energy. These projects are not only important to Nova but will provide huge economic benefit to the state of Alaska.

In this endeavour, the past year has seen a significant increase in executive visits to Alaska, New York, and Washington DC. These trips, which focused on investor summits and meetings with U.S. government officials, have culminated in the award of US$43.4 million, from the U.S. Department of War. The funding is intended to accelerate the development of a fully domestic, integrated antimony supply chain in Alaska.

With the U.S. Department of War’s endorsement which provides some validation to the strategic importance of Nova Minerals’ antimony assets, we continue to advance our dual-commodity strategy:

Corporately, Nova Minerals has monetised its investment in Snow Lake Resources realizing US$6.53 million in proceeds from the sale of our entire holding. Additionally, Nebari converted the full outstanding balance of the their convertible note in January 2025 resulting in Nova Minerals being debt free.

In September 2025 the Company also made a strategic cornerstone investment of 7.8% in Adelong Gold Limited, a gold-antimony explorer and near-term producer with high-grade projects in Australia and Brazil. We believe this investment allows us to partner with undervalued, high-growth resource companies offering strong exploration and production potential.

As of the close of the September 2025 quarter, we had access to over A$86.3 million in funding comprising of, A$17.5 million in cash, US$43.4 million (A$65.5 million) 24 month award from the U.S. Department of War to support antimony production in Alaska, and approximately ~A$3.3million in liquid investments, with no debt.

On a broader outlook, in our opinion, the global economy remains dynamic and uncertain with the various tensions and conflicts around the globe, the changing political outlooks, and the inflationary effects and weakness in the US dollar. We believe the results of these events could continue to culminate in the central banks around the world continuing to buy up gold bullion putting upward pressure on gold prices and a focus in the western world to mitigate strategic risk for critical minerals supply with the development of independent supply chains.

These impacts allow us to remain optimistic about the rising importance of gold and antimony in the marketplace and take the view that we are well placed to recognise this significant upside.

We will continue to strive for de-risking of the project and the establishment of a solid foundation for future growth through the prudent allocation of capital.

As always, we want to actively engage with all our stakeholders as we continue in creating value

through the development of the Estelle gold and critical minerals district. With that in mind I would like to acknowledge the diligent contributions from the Nova team, supporting stakeholders, and fellow Board of Directors for another immense year with all its achievements. We believe that Novais well position for another exciting year ahead and we look forward to updating the market on our progress.
