Nova Minerals Limited announced the appointment of Ashlie Thorburn as its new Chief Financial Officer, effective April 20 2026. Thorburn brings more than two decades of senior finance experience in the mining sector, having held senior roles at Southwest Critical Materials, Armanino Advisory, and Hycroft Mining Holding Corp. Her background in SEC, TSX and ASX reporting, corporate governance, and capital‑raising positions her to support Nova’s transition to a U.S.‑domiciled entity and the execution of its critical‑minerals strategy.
The appointment follows Nova’s recent $43.4 million Department of Defense grant for antimony production and the company’s planned redomiciliation to the United States. Thorburn’s expertise in U.S. capital markets and financial reporting will help the company navigate SEC compliance, investor relations, and the financial structuring required for the Estelle project’s development and eventual production. Her role will also focus on strengthening internal controls and audit processes as Nova expands its operations in Alaska and prepares for a potential NYSE listing.
CEO Christopher Gerteisen welcomed Thorburn to the team, noting that the company is entering an “exciting phase of growth and development at our flagship Estelle Gold and Critical Minerals Project in Alaska.” The new CFO is expected to accelerate the company’s ability to secure institutional capital, manage the financial complexities of antimony trisulfide production slated for late 2026/early 2027, and support the broader strategic shift toward a U.S.‑based corporate structure.
The appointment underscores Nova’s commitment to building a robust financial foundation as it moves from exploration to production. With Thorburn’s leadership, Nova aims to enhance financial discipline, improve governance, and position itself for a successful NYSE listing while delivering on its critical‑minerals portfolio.”
