Pilbara Gold Exploration Update and Planned Activities – March Quarter

Artemis Resources Limited (‘Artemis’ or the ‘Company’) (ASX/AIM: ARV) is pleased to provide an outline of a substantial drilling program planned to test high priority gold exploration targets on the 100% owned Carlow Tenement within the Company’s extensive holdings in the North Pilbara gold province of Western Australia.


A diamond and Reverse Circulation (“RC”) drilling program is expected to commence in early February to test several compelling targets within a 4km long northwest trending zone centred around the Company’s 704Koz AuEq Carlow Mineral Resource1 which includes 374Koz gold, 64,000t copper and remains open. Despite proximity to Carlow, the targets planned to be drilled during the March Quarter are previously untested.

Summary of Planned Activities – March Quarter 2025

  • The first hole will test the large Marillion Electro-magnetic (“EM”) conductor 500m east of the Carlow resource, near the base of the Andover Intrusion
  • Diamond drilling will then test the potential for significant extensions to the Carlow resource, down plunge from previous high-grade gold intersections
  • RC drilling is then planned across the Titan Prospect 2km northwest of Carlow, as an initial test of widespread high-grade gold occurrences at surface
  • Recent assays from outcrops of chert and quartz/ironstone veins at Titan include 51.8g/t Au and 41.4g/t Au, in line with results announced during 2024
  • Surface gold occurrences at Titan may be associated with a large gravity-low feature surrounded by chert outcrops, interpreted major faults and thrusts
  • Conceptual mining study planned to review the 2022 Carlow Inferred Mineral Resource1 including 7.25Mt @ 1.3g/t gold for 296,000oz Au in an optimised pit
  • Artemis is also evaluating other quality assets and recently applied for an EL to cover an interpreted intrusion with potential for IOCG Cu/Au mineralisation
  • Following the recent $4M placement, the Company is now well funded to drill priority targets around Carlow and progress other promising gold targets

Recently appointed Managing Director Julian Hanna2 commented: ‘As a result of the excellent work completed by the Karratha exploration team during 2024 and following the announced capital raising in December, Artemis is now in a strong position to undertake drilling of some exciting targets at the Karratha Gold Project.

Exploration in the following months will be focussed on the Carlow Tenement which hosts a significant gold - copper resource at Carlow and covers a wide range of exploration targets within a wide, prospective corridor with minimal previous drilling.

I look forward to working closely with the very experienced and committed team at Artemis and updating shareholders with results from the drilling in due course.’

Priority Drill Targets and other Activities – March Quarter 2025

Marillion Electro-Magnetic Anomaly3

Marillion is a large, highly conductive electro-magnetic (FLTEM) anomaly modelled by the Company’s consulting geophysicist as a 500m long, c.11,000 siemens conductor with the top at approximately 350m vertical depth (refer to Figure 2). Marillion is undrilled, and the source of the conductive anomaly is unknown.

Drilling is planned to start in early February with the first drill hole designed to test the centre of the Marillion EM anomaly for possible sulphide hosted mineralisation.

Marillion may potentially represent an extension of the Carlow gold/copper deposit offset >500m by a fault or represent a possible sulphide accumulation at the interpreted base of the Andover Intrusion which is mapped in outcrop near Marillion.

"This is a very dangerous time. I mean, it's extremely dangerous, whether you're in the market or you're wondering what to do," she said on the sidelines of the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference.

"You've got to get to safety. And safety is sound money — physical silver, physical gold. They have different functions, but for me this is a battle royale. I'm going to the sidelines, I've got my safety net."

Andy Schectman: BRICS, Trump and Gold — What Will Wake the Public Up?

Andy Schectman, president of Miles Franklin, outlined his latest thoughts on the BRICS nations, sharing his thoughts on whether the bloc's plans will be affected by Donald Trump's return.

"I think these entities think in terms of decades and centuries, whereas we think in terms of days, weeks and much smaller increments," he told the Investing News Network.

"So no, this will not stop their drive to accumulate gold and to lessen their dependence on the dollar."
