Nova Pacific Metals Announces Private Placement of Up to $2,000,000

Vancouver, August 22, 2024 - Nova Pacific Metals Corp. (CSE: NVPC) (OTCQB: NVPCF) (FSE: YQ10) (WKN: A40GFH) (the "Company," or "Nova Pacific") is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") for gross proceeds of up to $2,000,000.

The non-brokered Private Placement will consist of up to 8,000,000 units (the "Units") priced at $0.25 per Unit. Each Unit will include one common share of the Company (a "Share") and one warrant (a "Warrant"), with each Warrant allowing the holder to purchase an additional Share at an exercise price of $0.40 for a period of two years.

The Warrants will include an acceleration clause such that if, following the expiration of the statutory hold period applicable to the Warrants, the Shares trade at or above $0.90 for 10 consecutive trading days, Nova Pacific will have the option to accelerate the exercise period by delivering a notice to the holders of the Warrants. In such a case, holders will have 30 days from the date of the notice to exercise their Warrants.

Nova Pacific's CEO, Mr. J. Malcolm Bell, stated, "The recently completed NI 43-101 technical report on the Lara "Kuroko" style, massive sulfide deposit has recommended an infill drilling program sufficient to calculate a measured and inferred ore deposit capable of supporting a prefeasibility study (PFS). This financing, once completed, will contribute substantially to continued development and the production potential of this highly attractive and well-located project."

Nova Pacific intends to use the proceeds of the Private Placement for exploration, general corporate purposes and working capital. All securities issued in connection with this Private Placement are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day pursuant to applicable securities laws.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company may pay finder's fees to eligible non-related parties of up to 8% of the gross proceeds raised. Additionally, Nova Pacific may issue broker warrants ("Broker Warrants") equal to up to 8% of the Units sold. Each Broker Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase Share at a price of $0.25 per Share for a period of two years.
