VANCOUVER, November 9, 2011 - Novo Resources Corp. ("Novo" or the "Company") (CNSX: NVO) is pleased to announce plans to commence a 5,000 meter reverse circulation drill program at its Beatons Creek gold project in Western Australia beginning in early December 2011. Drilling of approximately 35, 50-250 meter deep holes will target a series of shallow, gold-bearing conglomerate reefs to evaluate their grade and continuity. Although these conglomerates are believed to underlie several square kilometers of the property, this initial drill test will evaluate an area of approximately one square kilometer proximal to outcrops of gold-bearing conglomerates that have been developed by numerous historic mine workings.
"We are very excited to commence drilling of this unusual but potentially significant gold system," states Dr. Quinton Hennigh, President and CEO of Novo Resources. "Historic drilling suggests the presence of up to four stacked reefs occurring within roughly eighty meters of stratigraphic section. Our drill program will definitively evaluate the grade and continuity of these reefs over a broad area of about one square kilometer, but if successful, will help demonstrate the possibility for even more extensive mineralization throughout the property."
About Beatons Creek
The Beatons Creek Tenements cover extensive exposures of the Beatons Creek conglomerates, a series of Archaean age pyritic conglomerates hosting gold mineralization similar to that of the Witwatersrand Basin in the Republic of South Africa. Shallow gold reefs were first identified and mined in this area beginning in the late 1800's. Novo's upcoming drill program will be the first modern, systematic exploration on the property.
