Anchorage, Alaska, Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nova Minerals Corp (“Nova Minerals” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: NVA | ASX: NVA) welcomes the U.S. Government’s $249 million investment to complete the final stages of the Port MacKenzie Rail Extension, providing a key transportation link intended to support the development and movement of critical minerals within the region.
The funding will deliver a new the 32-mile rail line connecting Port MacKenzie, Alaska, to the Alaska Railroad Corporation’s main line (Figure 1).
Nova Minerals’ direct rail siding at Port Mackenzie will enable shipments of antimony and other critical minerals ore and concentrate feedstock to seamlessly move from the Alaskan interior and the region directly to its planned antimony and critical minerals processing and refining hub at Port MacKenzie via the new rail extension (Figure 2).
Nova Minerals CEO Christopher Gerteisen joined Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transport Sean Duffy, US Senator for Alaska Dan Sullivan, and US Representative for Alaska Nick Begich, US House Natural Resouces Committee Chairman Rep. Bruce Westerman, and Matsu Borough Mayor Edna Devries, for the announcement at Port MacKenzie on October 19 (Figure 3).
Highlights
U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced $249 million federal grant for completion of the final stages of the Port MacKenzie Rail Extension. The award covers around 80 percent of the $311 million project, with state and local partners contributing the remaining $62 million.
The Extension will link Alaska Railroad Corporation’s main line with Port MacKenzie, home to Nova’s planned antimony processing and refining facility, while enhancing transportation access for resource development projects across Alaska and the region.
This commitment is the latest in a series of infrastructure investments in the region, including $7.8 million to enhance the port’s capacity for barge haul-out and loading operations, $34 million investment to support the expansion of the port, multi-billion funding commitments by Asian offtake partners to advance the Alaska LNG project recently announced by the Trump administration, and progress accelerating with funding, permitting, and studies completed in support of near term development of the West Susitna Access Road Project which tie into Nova Minerals Estelle Gold and Critical Minerals Project.
“We are going to move this grant at Trump speed,” Secretary Duffy said.
“What that means is we want to get this out by spring. We want to be turning dirt. Alaska is America’s natural resource powerhouse, but the state needs strong infrastructure to get those resources from point A to point B safely, reliably and efficiently,” Secretary Duffy said.
“Thanks to President Trump and the entire Alaska delegation, we’re building a massive new rail supply line that will power the energy and critical mineral projects of the future. This landmark investment will generate an economic boom for the region, unleash American energy dominance, and enhance our national security.”
Senator Sullivan said this was another important step toward unlocking Alaska’s extraordinary mineral resource potential.
“Alaska has enormous deposits of critical minerals, world-class energy projects, and a strategic location at the crossroads of the world. But having these resources isn’t enough. We need the infrastructure to develop them responsibly and get them to market,” Senator Sullivan added.
Nova Minerals CEO, and Port MacKenzie Commission Vice-Chair Christopher Gerteisen joined representatives from the U.S. and Alaskan Governments, the Borough, and Port McKenzie for the announcement
“Port Mackenzie is a commodity port, the export-import gateway for Alaska minerals and resources to reach US and global markets. This is yet another step forward to deliver the infrastructure necessary for critical minerals projects in Alaska to get their product to market quickly and for equipment and supplies to build and operate projects in Alaska to enter and distribute across our State as efficiently as possible,” Mr Gerteisen said.
“Nova Minerals will directly benefit from the speed and efficiency enabled by the Port MacKenzie Rail Extension, with our planned antimony processing and refining facility situated directly along the extension rail line.
“These infrastructure developments are creating the foundations needed to support future critical minerals and mining projects across Alaska. Upgrades to the ports, roads, and power throughout the Mat Su region mean projects like Nova’s Estelle Gold and Critical Minerals site can get into production cheaper and faster. Upgrades to port, transportation and power infrastructure across the Mat-Su region are helping create the conditions needed to advance major resource projects, including Nova’s Estelle Gold and critical minerals developments which has been a first mover and established itself as an anchor industry within the commercial industrial zone Port district.
“Nova’s antimony facility will form part of the United States’ first modern, secure, fully integrated antimony supply chain in decades – from mine to end users in defense, technology and other advanced applications supporting both national and economic security.”

WUHU, China, Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LUXEED, Chery Group’s luxury new energy vehicle brand, concluded its Global Media Test Drive on October 20 as part of the 2026 Chery International User Summit. Automotive journalists and key opinion leaders (KOLs) from multiple countries and regions completed a 185-kilometer test drive in LUXEED’s flagship MPV, LLOUNGE, and high-performance SUV, STORMAX.
The route linked urban roads, intercity expressways, winding mountain roads and a professional proving ground, giving participating media the opportunity to evaluate LUXEED across intelligent driving assistance, chassis performance, cabin comfort and dynamic handling. Together, these driving environments showcased the brand’s approach to intelligent luxury, combining advanced technology, refined comfort and engaging performance.
Intelligent Navigation: Connected Driving Assistance and Smart-Cabin Technology
Before departure, participating media witnessed a demonstration of Super Intelligent Valet Parking (SIVP), highlighting LUXEED’s intelligent parking capabilities as part of a broader driving experience that extends from departure and highway travel to parking.
Leaving Chery International Headquarters in Wuhu, the media convoy moved from urban roads onto intercity expressways, where both LLOUNGE and STORMAX demonstrated their Navigate on Autopilot (NOA) systems. Using multi-sensor perception and algorithm-based motion planning, NOA supports adaptive cruising, lane centering, dynamic speed adjustment, navigation-guided lane changes and overtaking maneuvers within its operating parameters. On the expressway, the system adjusted speed and planned trajectories in response to changing traffic conditions, helping reduce the demands of long-distance driving while supporting a more relaxed journey.
The vehicles’ smart-cabin technologies also drew attention from participating media. Equipped with an AI large language model, the voice interaction system supports rapid recognition and natural-language dialogue in multiple languages, allowing occupants to adjust navigation, climate settings and cabin modes through voice commands. Multi-screen interaction, together with the high-definition head-up display (HUD), makes key driving information readily accessible, helping drivers stay informed while keeping their attention on the road.
Composed Mountain-Road Handling: Dual-Chamber Air Suspension and ±7° Rear-Wheel Steering Work in Concert
After leaving the expressway, the convoy entered the mountain roads of Jishan Bamboo Sea. With undulating surfaces, successive curves and tight hairpin bends, the route tested the vehicles’ suspension tuning and handling stability.
LUXEED vehicles feature a front double-wishbone and rear multi-link independent suspension architecture, supported by coordinated tuning of the Dual-Chamber Air Suspension, Dual-Valve Continuous Damping Control (CDC) shock absorbers and Vehicle Motion Control (VMC) system. Together, these technologies are designed to balance body control with vibration isolation, helping maintain stability through tight corners and during rapid lane changes while reducing body roll.
The addition of ±7° Rear-Wheel Steering further enhances maneuverability. By allowing the rear wheels to steer, the system helps these large vehicles navigate narrow mountain roads and tight bends with greater agility. The resulting combination of responsive handling and a composed ride gave journalists an opportunity to experience how LUXEED balances driving confidence with passenger comfort.
A Refined Lakeside Retreat: Design, Comfort and Immersive Sound
Midway through the drive, the convoy stopped at Lakeside Café, where the natural surroundings offered an opportunity to explore the vehicles’ design and cabin features at closer range.
LLOUNGE’s distinctive starry grille, high-gloss chrome detailing and interactive welcome light carpet contrasted with STORMAX’s wide, low-slung stance, 1.26 design ratio and L-shaped headlights. In the lakeside light, the two models presented distinct interpretations of LUXEED’s design language.
Inside, both vehicles combine carefully selected materials with comfort-focused technology. LLOUNGE creates a first-class cabin experience with full-grain perforated Nappa leather seats and mechanical massage functions. Its two second-row zero-gravity seats recline to 123° and are complemented by four-way power leg rests and independent electric footrests, offering occupants a place to relax between driving sessions.
LLOUNGE also features Privacy Acoustic Shield mode, 12 acoustic glass panes and a 33-speaker sound system designed to evoke the atmosphere of a concert hall. Together, these features help create a quieter, more private cabin with an immersive audio experience.
STORMAX pairs dual front zero-gravity seats with a four-way motorized central display and 16-point seat massage. Concealed double-layer sunshades and dual-layer acoustic laminated glass further help manage incoming light and reduce external noise, bringing together technology and comfort in a driver-focused cabin.
Track Performance: STORMAX Puts Power and Handling to the Test
The final stage of the test drive took place at Guangde Proving Ground, where STORMAX was put through a series of dynamic evaluations on the high-speed oval and dedicated handling courses.
Built on an 800V high-voltage battery-electric vehicle (BEV) architecture, STORMAX features a dual-motor all-wheel-drive (AWD) powertrain producing a maximum output of 460 kW and peak torque of 775 Nm. Engaging one-touch Boost mode increases torque by 10%, according to the vehicle’s specifications. STORMAX accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in under 3.9 seconds and can reach speeds exceeding 250 km/h on the high-speed oval.
During 100–0 km/h braking tests, the vehicle’s six-piston fixed-caliper braking system and staggered tire setup delivered a stopping distance of under 34 meters.
Further evaluations included the moose test at speeds exceeding 82 km/h, slalom maneuvers and skidpad exercises. STORMAX’s active rear diffuser and 10 aerodynamic air ducts work alongside its electronic chassis control system to support aerodynamic performance and precise vehicle control through demanding maneuvers.
Across the 185-kilometer route, the test drive brought LUXEED’s three brand pillars—Extreme Driving Pleasure, Beyond-Class Enjoyment, and Ultimate Intelligence—to life through a combination of intelligent driving assistance, considered cabin design and dynamic performance.
Through the experience shared by international media, LUXEED aims to introduce a wider global audience to its approach to intelligent luxury, demonstrating how technology, comfort and driving enjoyment can come together across a diverse range of real-world driving scenarios.
