  • Located 12km north of Artemis’s Radio Hill Nickel/Copper/Cobalt treatment plant.

David Lenigas, Artemis’ Executive Chairman, commented;

“The Ruth Well Nickel/Copper/Cobalt deposit was one of the key assets acquired by Artemis in December last year as part of the Elysian transaction[1] . The fact that Ruth Well is only 12 km from our Radio Hill base metals plant, which is scheduled for re-start in June this year, makes it very strategic. Our plans are to get drilling here as quickly as possible and see if we can add Ruth Well in to the Radio Hill plant feed schedule. Previous drilling has intersected high grade nickel/copper and cobalt close to surface making it amenable to open pit mining if the economics add up.”

Artemis Resources Limited (“ Artemis ”) ( ASX: ARV ) is pleased to announce that the Western Australian Government’s Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (“DMIRS”) have granted the 27.39 km[2] Ruth Well Exploration Licence 47/3487. The Ruth Well nickel deposit is situated only 12 km from the Company’s Radio Hill treatment plant (refer Figure 1 for location of Ruth Well and Radio Hill).

Drill intersections of high grade nickel mineralisation have been previously reported by Fox Resources Ltd in November 2007[2] , are as follows:

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON ARTEMIS RESOURCES:

Artemis Resources Limited is a resources exploration and development company with a focus on its prospective Karratha (gold, cobalt, base metals, platinum group elements and iron ore) and the Mt Clement Paulsens (gold) project in Western Australia.

Artemis owns the fully permitted ~500,000 tpa Radio Hill nickel and copper operations and processing plant located 35 km south of Karratha. JORC Code 2004 compliant resources of gold, nickel, copper PGE's and zinc, all situated within a 40 km radius of the Radio Hill plant and on 1,838 km[2] form the newly consolidated assets of Artemis Resources. Artemis is currently refurbishing and upgrading the Radio Hill processing plant and is targeting on having it operational in June 2018.

Artemis have signed Definitive Agreements with Novo Resources Corp. (“Novo”), which is listed on Canada’s TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV:NVO), and pursuant to the Definitive Agreements, Novo has satisfied its expenditure commitment, and earned50% of gold (and other minerals necessarily mined with gold) in conglomerate and/or paleoplacer style mineralization in Artemis’ tenements within 100 km of the City of Karratha, including at Purdy’s Reward (“the Gold Rights”). The Gold Rights do not include (i) gold disclosed in Artemis’ existing (at 18 May 2017) JORC Code Compliant Resources and Reserves or (ii) gold which is not within conglomerate and/or paleoplacer style mineralization or (iii) minerals other than gold. Artemis’ Mt Oscar tenement is excluded from the Definitive Agreements.

The Definitive Agreements cover 38 tenements/ tenement applications that are 100% owned by Artemis. Pursuant to Novo’s successful earn-in, three 50:50 joint ventures have been formed between Novo’s subsidiary, Karratha Gold Pty Ltd (“Karratha Gold”) and three subsidiaries of Artemis (KML No 2 Pty Ltd, Fox Radio Hill Pty Ltd, and Armada Mining Pty Ltd). The joint ventures are managed as one by Karratha Gold. Artemis and Novo will contribute to further exploration and any mining of the Gold Rights on a 50:50 basis. Further definitive agreements covering approximately 19 Artemis tenements/tenement applications that are already subject to third party interests are expected to be signed once all necessary third-party consents have been obtained
