Phase One Drilling Update
Artemis Resources Limited ("Artemis" or "the Company") (ASX/AIM: ARV) is
pleased to announce results from the first phase of drilling of three gold
targets in the immediate area of the 100% owned Carlow gold/copper resource 1
(#_ftn1) . Phase One comprised five diamond holes for a total of 1,790m with
details of the targets included in Artemis announcements on 10 February and 19
March 2025.
With the current gold price (~USD3,300/oz) approximately double the price when
the Carlow Mineral Resource was announced in October 2022 2 (#_ftn2)
(~USD1,640/oz), Artemis has commenced a review of >400 historic drill holes
which formed the basis of the 2022 resource. Early results from this review
are encouraging and some initial findings are summarised in this announcement.
Highlights - Phase One Drilling
· 7m @ 2.9g/t Au including 1m @ 15.3g/t Au from 404m in 25ARDD001, the
first hole to test the Marillion Prospect, 600m east of the Carlow resource
· Marillion may be an extension of the Carlow gold/copper lode system,
with the 600m gap between Carlow and Marillion now a high priority for
drilling
· 1m @ 16.4g/t Au from 67m intersected at Titan, in hole 25ARDD004,
1.5km west of Carlow and on the same interpreted structure which hosts Carlow
and Marillion
· Titan intersection supported by elevated gold assays up to 0.5g/t Au
within previously untested sequence intruded by porphyry with strong
alteration, veining, brecciation
· Phase One drilling generates new interpretation of Carlow geological
setting opening up wider potential for mineralisation. Planning next phase
of drilling in June
Highlights - Carlow Review
· 192 high-grade gold assays (>10g/t Au) intersected in 80 historic
holes at Carlow 3 (#_ftn3) identified during initial stage of the Carlow
review
· 515 high-grade copper assays (>2.0% Cu) intersected in 162
historic holes at Carlow 4 (#_ftn4) identified during initial stage of the
Carlow review
· Deepest historic hole at Carlow intersected 4m @ 11.1 g/t Au &
2.0% Cu, outside the resource with potential completely open below and along
strike
· Conceptual technical studies of Carlow including metallurgical test
work are likely next steps pending completion of the Carlow review
Julian Hanna, Managing Director, commented:
"I am pleased to report very encouraging results from the drilling program
designed as an initial test of three previously undrilled gold targets near
Carlow and to scope out the potential for significant extensions to the known
gold/copper lode system at Carlow. 5 (#_ftn5) The program was successful in
intersecting high-grade gold at two of the targets and providing compelling
support for potential new discoveries and possible extensions to the Carlow
deposit.
Highlights from the drilling include high-grade gold (>15g/t Au)
intersected at the Marillion and Titan targets located 2.7km apart on the same
structural zone which hosts the 374koz gold and 66,000t copper resource at
Carlow. Importantly the first drill hole at the large Marillion target
intersected 7m @ 2.9g/t Au including 1m @ 15.3g/t Au from 399m downhole in
25ARDD001, approximately 600m east along strike from any previous drilling at
Carlow. This one intersection suggests gold mineralisation may extend well
beyond the current deposit with the gap between Carlow and Marillion now a
high priority for drilling planned to start in the June quarter.
The potential for extensions to the Carlow deposit is also supported by an
intersection of 4m @ 11.1 g/t Au and 2.0% Cu in hole 20CCDD003, the deepest
historic drill hole at Carlow 6 (#_ftn6) . This intersection is at
approximately 500m vertical depth and is not included in the Carlow resource.
The high-grade intersection in hole 20CCDD003 warrants step out drilling to
test for other high-grade gold and copper lodes and potential resource
extensions below Carlow.
The three recent holes at Titan were drilled below one of four surface gold
occurrences in quartz veins and chert outcrops around a central gravity-low
feature reported in 2024 and 2025 7 (#_ftn7) . The holes intersected
ultramafic rocks and sediments intruded by porphyry with elevated values of
gold up to 0.5g/t Au intersected in the ultramafic sequence and 1m @ 16.4g/t
Au intersected in the porphyry intrusion in hole 25ARDD004 from 67m down
hole.
The first step in the Carlow review is to evaluate numerous (>700)
high-grade gold and copper assays from historic drilling. High gold and copper
grades are widespread across the Carlow lode system with assays greater than
10g/t gold and 2.0% copper listed in Tables 1-4 and plotted on Figure 1 below.
Depending on the initial review we expect to appoint consultants to undertake
conceptual technical studies including metallurgical test work on drill core
samples from Carlow. We look forward to updating shareholders in coming weeks
on the planned follow-up drilling as well as progress on the review of the
Carlow gold/copper deposit at this exciting project".

Drilling Summary
1. Marillion Hole - 25ARDD001
Hole 25ARDD001 was drilled through the Andover Intrusion which occurs as a
layered sill comprising gabbro, leuco-gabbro and pyroxenite with a relatively
flat lying brecciated basal contact. Underlying the intrusion is a ~300m
wide sequence of pillow basalts and local interflow sediments, with localised
brecciation and sulphides. Gold mineralisation intersected in 25ARDD001 (7m @
2.9g/t Au including 1m @ 15.3g/t Au from 399m downhole) is associated with a
zone of quartz/sulphide veins in basalt, which is the main host rock at
Carlow.
Underlying the basalt, 25ARDD001 intersected a sequence of shallow dipping
sediments and cherts containing abundant sulphide which is the likely source
of the Marillion electromagnetic anomaly 10 (#_ftn10) The chert/sediment
sequence is interpreted to be a shallow dipping equivalent of the Regal Thrust
which outcrops as prominent ridges of steep south dipping chert units forming
an arc to the west and north of Carlow. 25ARDD001was terminated at 714.6m in
sediments.
2. Carlow Extension Hole - 25ARDD002
Hole 25ARDD002 was drilled 100m east of the Carlow resource and intersected a
similar sequence as drilled in 25ARDD001. The main target of 25ARDD002 was the
potential for a down plunge extension to one of the Carlow lodes. 25ARDD002
reached the target depth which was intruded by a later gabbro dyke (probably
related to the Andover Intrusion) and the hole failed to intersect gold
mineralisation. A deeper copper intersection of 2.5m @ 0.87% Cu from 478.0m
downhole in 25ARDD002 was intersected in sediments below the gold target
depth.
3. Titan Holes - 25ARDD003, 25ARDD004, 25ARDD005
Three holes were drilled along a section as an initial test of a surface gold
occurrence hosted by west dipping quartz/ironstone veins exposed in shallow
pits on the eastern side of Titan. Previous selective sampling of the veins
returned very high-grade gold and silver assays 11 (#_ftn11) Holes
25ARDD003, 25ARDD004, 25ARDD005 intersected a chrome rich ultramafic sequence
overlying strongly altered, veined and brecciated sediments intruded by
porphyry dyke. Elevated gold values up to 0.5g/t Au were intersected in the
ultramafic sequence and porphyry and 1m @ 16.4g/t Au was intersected in the
porphyry in hole 25ARDD004 from 67m down hole. (Refer to Figure 2)
