Exhibit

99.1

Nova

Minerals Announces U.S. Redomicile is Complete and Provides a Project Update

Anchorage,

Alaska, June 22, 2026 - Nova Minerals Corp (“Nova Minerals” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: NVA

| ASX: NVA) is pleased to announce that its redomicile to the United States has been successfully completed and to provide an update

on its 2026 field season, with exploration and development activities now well underway.

Highlights

● Successfully

completed redomicile to the United States: The Company’s common stock and listed

warrants are now trading on the NYSE American under the ticker symbols “NVA”

and “NVAWS”, respectively. Chess Depositary Interests (CDIs) are also trading

on the ASX under the ticker symbol “NVA”.

● Antimony

drilling commenced: Drilling at the Stibium antimony-gold prospect commenced in early

June from the existing ridge-top drill pad, targeting stibnite-bearing veins identified at

surface (Figure 3).

● Gold

drilling commenced: Drilling commenced on 17 June from a new pad at the northern end

of the main RPM ridge, targeting gold geochemical anomalies (Figure 1). The 2026 RPM program

will continue testing new zones along the two-mile-long ridge while further advancing resource

definition at the RPM North and RPM Valley deposits.

● Major

geophysical survey completed: A nearly 2,000 line-mile Z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic

(ZTEM) airborne geophysical survey was recently completed across the Company’s entire

claim block. ZTEM has identified numerous reduced intrusion related gold systems (RIRGS)

across the region. Results are expected to enhance exploration targeting across the claim

block, particularly at RPM and West Wing, with data processing and interpretation pending.

● Field

exploration underway: As seasonal conditions continue to improve, field crews are advancing

prospect mapping, sampling and generative exploration programs. Exploration efforts in 2026

are focused on the greater RPM area, West Wing and Portage Pass.

● Access

development underway: Approximately six miles of trail have been established from the

airstrip toward Stibium with construction ongoing.

● Site

infrastructure progressing: Camp improvement projects are advancing alongside material

site preparation, airstrip expansion work, and engineering and design plans being finalized

for construction of antimony processing and refining (Figure 2).

● Strategic

investment in Amara Minerals: Nova has increased its investment in Amara Minerals, participating

in a A$500,000 share placement at A$0.005 per share and receiving listed options (1:2, A$0.008

exercise price, expiring 1 May 2029). The investment provides exposure to Amara’s gold–antimony

projects in a highly prospective Australian district near Fosterville and Costerfield, with

Nova also retaining a right of first refusal over antimony offtake.

Nova

Minerals CEO, Mr. Christopher Gerteisen, commented:

“I

am pleased to announce that our 2026 field season is now underway and continuing to ramp up, with up to four drill rigs focused on expanding

our gold and antimony resources. The Company continues to execute on the Department of Defense-funded antimony project, supported by

US$43.4 million in funding, with procurement of key mining and processing equipment now complete. Antimony ore extraction and process

plant construction remain on schedule to commence this year.

parallel, we have successfully completed a ZTEM geophysical survey, which will significantly enhance our targeting capabilities and support

our generative exploration programs. These programs are now underway with the objective of making new discoveries and advancing more

than 20 existing prospects across the Estelle Gold and Critical Minerals Project, which spans over 200 square miles.

These

exciting operational milestones, combined with the successful completion of our U.S. redomicile, represent a transformational period

for Nova Minerals as we continue to advance rapidly toward antimony and gold production. We are building momentum on multiple fronts

and remain focused on creating long-term value for our shareholders while strengthening America’s domestic supply of critical minerals

and precious metals.”
