NOVO RESPONDS TO RECENT PUBLIC MEDIA REGARDING ARTEMIS RESOURCES LIMITED

Novo Resources Corp. has learned of certain recent public media disparaging one of the company's joint venture partners, Artemis Resources Ltd. and its chairman, David Lenigas. Novo wishes to make clear that it does not condone such views. Novo and Artemis have recently completed definitive earn-in and joint venture agreements to explore for conglomeratic paleoalluvial gold across Artemis's landholdings in the Karratha region, including the Purdy's Reward prospect, where Novo and Artemis recently announced the discovery of high-grade gold mineralization in a bulk sample. Novo is currently gearing up plans for exploration and is looking forward to moving this new gold discovery forward.
