ASX / MEDIA ANNOUNCEMENT

UPDATE ON ACTIVITIES

2 October 2019

ASX : ARV ATY : FRANKFURT ARTTF : OTCQB

GOLD FOCUSSED

ARTEMIS RESOURCES LIMITED IS AN AUSTRALIAN MINERAL DEVELOPER ADVANCING ITS WEST PILBARA BASE METALS, BATTERY AND PRECIOUS METALS ASSETS TOWARDS PRODUCTION.

ARTEMIS HAS CONSOLIDATED A MAJOR LAND HOLDING IN THE WEST PILBARA AND IS THE 100% OWNER OF THE RADIO HILL OPERATIONS AND PROCESSING INFRASTRUCTURE, STRATEGICALLY LOCATED 30 KM FROM THE CITY OF KARRATHA, THE POWERHOUSE OF THE PILBARA.

ARTEMIS ALSO HAS 1,140 KM[2] IN THE PATERSONS RANGE WITH ALL GOLD AND COPPER TARGETS WITHIN 40KM OF THE TELFER GOLD MINE AND SURROUNDING THE HAVIERON DISCOVERY BEING DRILLED BY NEWCREST AND GREATLAND GOLD.

Highlights

  • Bulldozing and structural mapping at Carlow Castle has been completed and a new geological model based on structure is being finalised

  • A new Mineral Resource Estimate and Optimisation Study for Carlow Castle is to be completed by the end of October, based on the new geological model

  • A seismic data review over Artemis’s tenements near Haverion is proceeding well, and the report is due in early October

  • A review of the new 540 km[2] acquisition tenements, 12 km south of the Telfer Gold Mine, is nearing completion

Artemis Resources Limited (“Artemis” or “the Company”) (ASX:ARV, Frankfurt: ATY, US OTCQB: ARTTF) is pleased to provide this update to shareholders as we progress work on our 100% owned Carlow Castle Gold-Copper Project in the West Pilbara around the Radio Hill Processing Plant, and on Artemis’s 100% owned 600 km[2] Armada Project, in the Paterson Range area of Western Australia, which surrounds the Greatland Gold Havieron gold/copper discovery on three sides ( Figures 1 and 2 ). Artemis, through the acquisition of Rincon Resources (“Rincon”) (See ASX release 16[th] July and subject to shareholder approval), will increase its total tenement footprint in the Paterson Range to 1,140km[2 ] , all within 50km of the giant Telfer Gold-Copper Mine.

Seismic lines 1987 NC87-13 transect our Armada tenement and in 2018 a new seismic line (18GA-KB1) was completed, which is near our proposed tenement acquisitions through Rincon ( Figure 2 ). A report on the seismic lines and data review is due in the next two weeks.

“I again encourage all shareholders to continually monitor the Havieron drilling results coming out from Newcrest and Greatland Gold, where they report to have 5 drill rigs, increasing to 6 drill rigs on site at Havieron.

Artemis’s Armada Project surrounds Havieron on 3 sides and exploration success at Havieron will provide valuable targeting information for drill planning on our 100% owned ground.

We are also progressing work for gold and copper at the Hasties Prospect, which is 12km south of the giant Telfer Gold-Copper Mine.

Structural mapping at the Carlow Castle Gold-Copper Project in the West Pilbara has been completed and a new geological model is currently being finalised, which will form the basis of a new mineral resource estimate that is due in late October.

The sustained gold price and fundamentals on copper put Artemis in a strong position with the asset base we have strategically acquired.”

PATERSONS RANGE

Reprocessing of Seismic data lines ( Figure 2 ) is nearing completion with a report looking at structures that may control mineralisation expected in early October.

A report on the Hasties and Westin Prospects ( Figure 2 ) by CSA Global is nearing completion and will define the next steps to best move these targets forward. Gold and copper mineralisation at Hasties is outcropping, and at Westin the mineralisation has been intersected at 84m, with depth of cover ~70 metres. The report will form the basis for exploration programs for the remainder of the 2019 field season.

A site visit to the Hasties Prospect is to be undertaken in the next 2 weeks in preparation for ground based work, which will include structural mapping.

CARLOW CASTLE

High impact exploration (See ASX release 9[th] September), with a bulldozer removing the upper soil to expose the orebody, has now been completed and a new geological and structural model is being finalised from the data gathered.

Preparations for a new resource estimate on Carlow Castle are well advanced, with the new geological and structural model forming the basis of a new Mineral Resource Estimate and optimisation study, which is due by the end of October.

A Mining Licence application for Carlow Castle is nearing completion; this will allow the approvals process for mining to run concurrently with a resource upgrade, scoping study and feasibility work.

A Program of Work for trenching and drilling over the new SAM anomalies (see ASX release 16[th] September) to the west of the Carlow Castle resource is to be submitted shortly. A request for a heritage survey will then be lodged, with the aim of the trenching and drilling to test interpreted mineralisation extensions that are indicated by the SAM and

geochemical surveys. The information from the work program will then be used to generate an Exploration Target for future planning purposes.

Further announcements will be made on progress at Carlow Castle as information comes to hand.

CONVERTIBLE NOTE FUNDING

Referring to the convertible notes that were issued 30 November 2018. As of 30 September 2019, the Company owes a total US$3,463,623 to the convertible note holder.
