· PLANS FOR DRILL TESTING PRIORITY TARGETS WHICH INCLUDE AREAS OF HIGH
GRADE GOLD, COPPER AND SILVER VEINS AT SURFACE, IS ADVANCED
Artemis Resources Limited ('Artemis' or the 'Company') (ASX/AIM: ARV) is
pleased to provide an update on further exploration undertaken on the 100%
owned Karratha Gold Project in the West Pilbara region of Western Australia.
The Company has undertaken further ground reconnaissance and rock chip
sampling across the Carlow tenement, with the goal to map all outcropping
mineralised veins and structures and define additional priority targets for
drilling.
The current exploration strategy is to use industry best techniques including
geochemical and geophysical surveys combined with structural interpretations
to identify targets within what Artemis considers is a wide, highly
prospective and underexplored structural corridor with potential to host
substantial gold deposits.
Executive Director George Ventouras commented: "We are very excited that
prospects located on the Carlow tenement continue to deliver further
high-grade gold, copper and silver results from extensive veins at surface.
While several of these prospects have had minor drilling programs, the
exploration team continues to compile data to identify the source of the
widespread gold discovered at surface. Combined with the Titan prospect and
other targets in the immediate Carlow area, the future looks very bright for
the Karratha Gold Project."
Figure 1. Artemis West Pilbara tenements with current known prospects named
Thorpe Prospect
The Thorpe Prospect is located in the southeast part of the Carlow tenement,
E47/1797. The recent ground reconnaissance program involved collecting
additional rock chip samples at Thorpe to define the extent of the gold
bearing veins and other structures. A small number of samples were also taken
close to the Carlow deposit.
In total, 52 samples were sent to the laboratory for assaying for gold and
other elements. Results included the following high-grade assays from the
Thorpe Prospect;
o 45.8 g/t Au, 3.7% Cu & 38.6 g/t Ag (24AR22-020)
o 12 g/t Au, 1.1% Cu & 3.7 g/t Ag
(24AR22-014)
o 5.9 g/t Au, 1.0% Cu & 17.8 g/t Ag
(24AR22-006)
o 3.4 g/t Au, 2.5% Cu & 4.2 g/t Ag
(24AR22-031)
o 3.0 g/t Au, 2.1% Cu & 24 g/t Ag
(24AR22-026)
o 6.2% Cu, 0.8 g/t Au & 5.6 g/t Ag
(24AR22-016)
o 6.1% Cu, 1.6 g/t Au & 13.5 g/t Ag
(24AR22-009)
o 10.3% Cu, 0.4g/t Au & 69.4 g/t Ag
(24AR22-013)
The high-grade gold, copper and silver assay results are from veins sampled
along three interpreted structures, each trending SW-NE and East-West for
approximately 2km strike length (refer to Figure 2). High-grade gold/copper
zones have been defined along two of these structures over around 500m strike
length. Mineralisation is associated with stockwork quartz-iron oxide
veining within shear and fault structures ranging in width from centimetres up
to approximately 12m. The associated country rock is predominantly altered
basalt & dolerite.
Figure 2. Rock Chip sample locations of recent ground program
Table 1. Thorpe rock chip assay results >0.5 g/t Au and >1% Cu
Prior to the recent rock chip sampling program, Artemis conducted an initial
sampling program on Thorpe in August 2024, with high grade results including;
· 6.1 g/t Au and 3.37% Cu (24AR07-192)
· 3.4 g/t Au and 3.88% Cu (24AR07-185)
· 2.2 g/t Au and 14.55% Cu (24AR07-183)
· 23.8% Cu and 0.5 g/t Au (24AR07-184)
A limited drilling program was conducted by Artemis in 2021 which produced
some encouraging early results. A summary of the best intercepts are as
follows:
· 1m @ 3.4 g/t Au from 32m (LFRC004)
· 3m @ 1% Cu and 6 g/t Ag from 79m (LFRC004)
· 1m @ 4.6% Cu and 2.2 g/t Au and 27 g/t Ag from 33m (LFRC003)
· 9m @ 2.7% Cu and 16.3 g/t Ag from 67m (LFRC002)
· 3m @ 2.16% Cu and 1.22 g/t Au from 160m (LFRC001)
As a result of the reconnaissance sampling programs on the Carlow tenement,
widespread surface gold mineralised veins have been identified within a wide
structural corridor centred around the district-scale Regal Thrust.
Individual prospects and deposits including Carlow Castle, Titan, Europa,
Marillion, Chapman, and Thorpe are interpreted to be related to this
structural corridor and remain a strong focus.

Next Steps
Artemis plans to commence drilling of key targets within the Carlow tenement
starting early 2025, subject to heritage clearance and other regulatory
requirements. The Company has commenced the process for surveys of areas not
already cleared.
