Released 10 July 2023
Artemis Resources (ASX:ARV) (Artemis of the Company) as requested by the ASX
provides below a revision to its announcement of 10 July 2023 "Lithium Bearing
Pegmatites Identified at West Pilbara Joint Venture Project".
The addendum to the release is to provide clarification to the market on the
material details of the soil samples including:
· Soil sample analysis style and elements sampled.
· Year of Soil sample collection.
· Tabulated summary of sample location and analysis.
· Sample location map and anomaly maps.
· Updated JORC Tables for each soil sample analysis type.
End
This announcement was approved for release by the Board.
Lithium Bearing Pegmatites Identified at West Pilbara Joint Venture Project
Highlights:
· Lithium bearing pegmatites identified within Osborne Joint
Venture (Artemis 49% interest).
· Significant assays:
o 1.8% Li(2)O from Sample No 23GT11-041
o 1.7% Li(2)O from Sample No 23GT11-042
o 1.58% Li(2)O from Sample No 23GT11-039
· Mineralised trend identified extends within JV tenure.
· Field activities are currently underway in the search for lithium
bearing pegmatites and dykes on Artemis tenements.
· Artemis tenements E47/1746 and E47/1797 adjoins the JV project.
· Review of the company's historic geochemical soils sampling data
indicates elevated lithium and lithium pathfinder elements within the
company's 100% held tenure.
Artemis Resources Limited is pleased to advise that lithium pegmatites have
been identified on the Osborne Joint Venture (Greentech Metals Ltd 51% /
Artemis Resources 49%).
As announced by GreenTech Metals Limited (ASX: GRE) in the ASX release of 7
July 2023(( 1 )) , GreenTech announced that the Kobe Lithium Prospect extends
into the Joint Venture exploration licence E47/3719. The mineralised trend
defined to date within JV tenure is shown in Figure 1 below. High tenor
lithium assays received within the project area include:
· 1.8% Li(2)O from Sample No 23GT11-041
· 1.7% Li(2)O from Sample No 23GT11-042
· 1.58% Li(2)O from Sample No 23GT11-039
Further work is planned on the Joint Venture tenement with sampling and
mapping aimed at identifying the full extent of the mineralised pegmatite zone
and the consistency of the lithium minerology and grade. Preparations have
commenced to enable a maiden drilling program as soon as all approvals are
received.

Artemis West Pilbara exploration
As part of the Company's West Pilbara exploration review and field work,
Artemis has also commenced a review and assessment of lithium prospectivity in
its 100% owned tenure. Artemis currently controls approximately 144 km(2) in
the West Pilbara adjacent to the lithium find.
Artemis has commenced a review of its extensive soils database and
commissioned a third-party consultant to process detailed satellite spectral
data.
A review of the company's historic regional exploration soils database
indicates elevated lithium and lithium pathfinder elements on Artemis
tenements E47/1746 and E47/1797.
The soils data is comprised of three different analytical methods being
conventional Aqua Regia, Ionic Leach and Ultrafine Fraction (UFF) collected
between 2018 and 2023. A total of 4,534 samples were reviewed (Figure 2) and
levelled against each other using percentile comparison against each data set
and then plotting the +95(th) percentile of each to develop Lithium and
pathway element trends (Figures 3 and 4).

Figure 3: Plot of levelled +95(th) percentile Lithium soils data with circled
anomalous trends
Figure 4: Plot of 95(th) Percentile Rubidium soils data with circled anomalous
trends
The data has defined seven distinct lithium cluster anomalies within E47/1797
and E47/1746 with elevated Lithium above the 95(th) percentile. Two of these
anomalies also correspond with two broad rubidium anomalies and will form part
of the initial reconnaissance programs in identifying potential lithium
bearing pegmatites.
First pass field reconnaissance programmes have commenced investigating the
source of the lithium soil anomalies with rock chip samples collected for
lithium analysis. Results from the initial rock chip samples are expected in
August.
Artemis holds a 9.67% interest in GreenTech Metals Limited (ASX: GRE).
