Press Release
TORONTO, Nov. 04, 2025 — NexGold Mining Corp. (TSXV: NEXG; OTCQX: NXGCF) (“NexGold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Fisheries Act Authorizations (the “FAAs”) for the construction and operation of the Goldboro Gold Project have been granted by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (“DFO”). The FAAs are the final federal authorizations for the Goldboro Gold Project, as well as the last major permits required prior to the commencement of construction and future operations. NexGold received its Industrial Approval, which was the last key provincial permit, from the government of Nova Scotia, in August 2025.
The FAAs, issued pursuant to Paragraphs 34.4(2)(b) and 35(2)(b) of the Fisheries Act, are an integral step towards the development of the Goldboro Gold Project and outline the stringent terms and conditions which allow the Company to construct and operate the Goldboro Gold Project. The FAAs also reaffirm the Company’s commitment to ongoing engagement with the Mi’kmaq of Nova Scotia, including opportunities to participate in offsetting projects. The Company initially applied for the FAAs in August 2023 and received notice in December 2023 from the DFO that its application for the FAAs was deemed complete. Consultation was initiated in early 2024 and was active and ongoing throughout 2024 and 2025.
Kevin Bullock, President and CEO of NexGold, commented: “We are extremely pleased to have received our FAAs for the Goldboro Gold Project. Having received our Industrial Approval from the government of Nova Scotia in August, the receipt of the FAAs announced today provides NexGold with the last key permits required to advance towards construction and operations. I am very proud of the hard work by the NexGold team in achieving this successful outcome for the advancement of the Goldboro Gold Project.”
