Titan East Confirms Emerging Gold Zone
Titan East Discovery: 19m @ 1.6g/t Au Confirms Emerging Gold Zone
Follow-up Diamond Drilling underway
Highlights
· Discovery intersection of 19m @ 1.6g/t Au in hole 25ARRC025 within
newly identified Titan East shear zone.
· This follows a standout high-grade intersection of 5m @ 13.1 g/t Au
in hole 25ARRC006 1 , announced 28 October, confirming the significance of the
Titan East shear zone.
· Results from 25ARRC025 are the first received from a 6-hole RC
program in November testing a 600m strike length of the shear zone, with
numerous assays pending.
· Visual results from other RC holes are very encouraging, with several
holes intersecting broad zones of alteration and veining potentially
associated with gold mineralisation.
· Diamond drilling commenced on 10 December to obtain geological and
assay information to assist in defining the scale and orientation of the
mineralised zone.
· The first diamond hole, 25ARDD006 has drilled across the shear zone
and is being deepened at the date of this announcement. Core photos are
included in Figures 5 & 6.
· The December quarter RC and diamond drilling programs at Titan East
are expected to underpin a substantial follow-up drilling campaign planned for
early 2026.
Artemis Resources (ASX: ARV) (Artemis or the Company) is pleased to report
that recent work at Titan East has evolved from early encouraging drilling
results to a standout high-grade intercept, now complemented by a wide gold
intersection, supporting the acceleration of drilling as the Company advances
exploration of a newly identified gold zone.
Jozsef Patarica, Executive Director, commented:
"Drilling at Titan East continues to demonstrate the potential for a
significant, coherent mineralised system beneath shallow cover. The
combination of the previously reported high-grade intercept in hole 25ARRC006
and the newly reported wide intersection in 25ARRC025 reinforces our
interpretation of a substantial shear-hosted gold structure with encouraging
width and continuity.
While numerous assays from five RC holes and one diamond hole remain pending,
the consistency of alteration, veining and mineralisation observed across
multiple holes provides increasing confidence in the potential of this
emerging zone. The commencement of diamond drilling marks an important step in
advancing our geological understanding, with structural information from this
hole expected to materially inform follow-up targeting and drilling design.
Titan East represents a compelling growth opportunity within the broader
Carlow Gold-Copper Project, and results from the current programs are expected
to underpin an expanded drilling campaign in early 2026"
Strategic Context and Program Overview
Initial RC drilling earlier this year 2 , targeting strong rock-chip samples
at surface 3 , provided early encouragement that Titan East may host a
mineralised structure beneath shallow cover. These results established the
area as a credible new target located only 1.5km from the existing Carlow
deposit (Inferred Resource 374koz Au and 64kt Cu 4 ).
The subsequent drilling program materially upgraded the prospectivity of the
area, returning an exceptional high-grade intersection of 5m @ 13.1g/t Au in
hole 25ARRC006. This result confirmed the potential of the newly identified
interpreted shear zone and provided a clear rationale to accelerate follow-up
exploration.
Building on this momentum, Artemis completed a follow-up six hole RC drilling
program in November along a 600m strike length of the interpreted shear zone.
Several holes intersected broad zones of alteration and veining consistent
with gold-bearing systems, with selective intervals submitted for fast-track
analysis.
Assay results from the first hole of this program returned a wide intersection
of 19m @ 1.6g/t Au in hole 25ARRC025. Encouraged by these early results, the
Company has moved quickly to commence diamond drilling to define the geometry
and scale of the mineralised structure.

Titan East - Summary of Recent and Current Drilling
Phase One:
Ten RC holes were drilled in September 2025 to test three priority targets at
Titan East (Figure 1). Two of the RC holes intersected a previously untested
mineralised structure, interpreted to be a wide north-east trending shear zone
beneath shallow cover, with holes 25ARRC006 and 25ARRC024 returning broad
intervals of gold mineralisation (Appendix Tables 1-2). Drilling away from the
interpreted shear zone returned no significant intersections.
Phase Two:
Six follow-up RC holes (25ARRC025-030) were completed in November 2025 along a
600m strike length to assess the potential of the interpreted shear zone
highlighted in Phase One. Five of the six holes intersected broad zones of
alteration and veining consistent with gold-bearing systems. Fast track assay
results for hole 25ARRC025 resulted in an intersection 19m @ 1.6g/t Au from
127m, including 6m @ 2.63g/t Au from 131m (Refer to Table 3).
Phase Three:
A 300m diamond drill hole (25ARDD006) commenced on 10 December to provide
structural information across the shear zone and test potential extensions to
the high-grade mineralisation in 25ARRC006. At date of this announcement
25ARDD006 has intersected a wide interval with strong quartz veining above a
strongly altered contact at the base of the shear zone (Figures 5 and 6).
Drilling is continuing with assay results of drill core samples expected in
January.

quarter 2026
