VANCOUVER - Novo Resources Corp. is pleased to provide an update from the Malmsbury project pursuant to its planned joint venture with ASX-listed GBM Resources Limited.

GBM recently announced initial exploration results from the Project which are available here.

The Company expects to formally initiate its joint venture with GBM once certain conditions precedent are satisfied in Q1 2021. In the meantime, exploration efforts by both GBM and Novo personnel continue unhindered.

'We are delighted to be working closely with the technically savvy GBM exploration team at Malmsbury,' commented Quinton Hennigh, Chairman and President of Novo. 'Early stage work is already resulting in very encouraging results that support our thesis that Malmsbury hosts a high-grade epizonal orogenic gold system like that at Fosterville approximately 58 km to the north. Recent rock chip sampling is not only turning up high-grade gold assays in vein material but importantly, in disseminated form in mineralized host rocks, a characteristic of the high-grade Fosterville lodes. Although early days, we anticipate working with GBM to ramp up the level of exploration at this very exciting project.'
