Annual Report for EL 23150 Officer Hill Project for the period 29 July 2018 to 28 July 2019

Abstract

This report documents exploration completed on EL 23150 (Officer Hill project) by Newmont Tanami Pty Ltd (Newmont) and Nova Minerals Ltd (Nova) between 29th July 2018 and 28th July 2019 pursuant to the Officer Hill Joint Venture Agreement. Exploration activities during the reporting period aimed to assess the geochemical footprint of the Officer Hill mineralised system through targeted drilling. Work completed during the reporting period included two diamond drilling programs for a total of six diamond drillholes and interpretation and assessment of the results. A surface geochemical survey program was also completed utilising Newmont's proprietary Deep Sensing Geochemistry (DSG) technique. The diamond drilling completed at the Project during the reporting period returned a number of significant intercepts in the results received. The logging and processing of diamond drillholes OHD0007-OHD0009 had not been completed at the end of the reporting period. Following the return of assay results over the subsequent 2019-2020 reporting period, the Project will be assessed in conjunction with further diamond drilling which is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2019.
