Nullagine Gold Project Update
VANCOUVER, Nov. 01, 2021 - Novo Resources Corp. ("Novo" or the "Company") (TSX: NVO, NVO.WT & NVO.WT.A) (OTCQX: NSRPF) wishes to advise that a routine crusher maintenance shut at its Nullagine gold project's Golden Eagle processing facility ("Golden Eagle Mill") has discovered greater wear than anticipated on its pitman/swing stock bearing housing which will require additional maintenance in Perth, Western Australia.
As a result of this unanticipated crusher shut extension, the Golden Eagle Mill has been shut for opportunistic preventative maintenance since October 30. Mining operations, however, will continue uninhibited. The Company anticipates that this shut will continue until crusher preventative maintenance is complete and the refurbished components are reinstalled in the crusher, which is expected to be completed by November 5. The Company will provide a further update around this date.
