Ground exploration during the quarter was conducted across the Carlow, Silica Hills and Osborne tenements.

Figure 3. Location of significant rock chip assay results - Silica Hills and Osborne tenements

The initial program of ground work commenced late in May 2024 and a small number of rock chips were taken across the tenements. The rock chips collected were taken proximate to previously identified targets, including specimens taken from historic workings to confirm mineralisation at these locations.

Results received from this program included:

*Indicates rock chip sample taken from Mullings pile.

Further ground exploration during the quarter was also focused on the Carlow tenement. The exploration team undertook rock chip sampling programs around the Titan and southern prospects which resulted in a number of high-grade results. Samples taken from the Titan prospect were dispatched to the lab for assays with some samples returning results >10,000 g/t Au (see table 2).

Figure 4. Artemis Resources Carlow project prospects

Rock chip samples were also taken at the Chapman and Thorpe prospects with highest results received from this program including:

o  24AR07-192 - 6.1 g/t Au

o  24AR07-184 - 23.8% Cu

o  24AR07-183 - 14.55% Cu

·      Table 2 Significant results from rock chip sampling conducted August 2024 - 0.3 g/t Au cut off

*Sample taken from historical workings/mullock heaps

An additional ground work program commenced in August 2024 with a number of rock chips taken across the Titan prospect and Carlow North prospect and sent to the lab for processing, The previous overlimit samples were also sent to a lab that specialises in higher levels of gold which allowed the Company to quantify the gold in these samples. Final assays were received from both sample batches and significant results are presented below and in table 3;

o  692,579.5 g/t Au & 3,000 g/t Ag (24AR11-005)

o  553,754.9 g/t Au & 1,305 g/t Ag (24AR19-075)

o  471,937.8 g/t Au & 1,775 g/t Ag (24AR11-008)

o  223,056.7 g/t Au & 1,195 g/t Ag (24AR19-068)

o  45,103.7 g/t Au & 344 g/t Ag (24AR11-004)

o  33,389.9 g/t Au & 1,305 g/t Ag (24AR19-061)

o  7,440.0 g/t Au & 212 g/t Ag (24AR11-002)

The potential upside remains large not only for this prospect, but more importantly for tenement wide prospectivity as the Company believes that Titan is part of a larger gold mineralised system across the Carlow tenement.

***Sample 24AR19-069 was taken from the Carlow North prospect; all other samples are from the Titan prospect.

**** Samples taken in datum GDA94Z50

The Company completed heritage and ethnographic surveys on the Lulu Creek gold prospect and Mt Marie lithium prospect. The written reports on both these surveys have been received and the pathway for ground disturbing activities, including drilling, has been cleared.

During the quarter, the Company also announced it had executed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Anax Metals Ltd (ASX:ANX) to jointly assess the potential for mutually beneficial opportunities in copper on Artemis project tenements and gold on Anax Metals tenements.

Artemis 100% Lithium Project

Further ground reconnaissance was completed during the quarter and was designed as a follow up to the original Mt Marie results where rock chip assays peaked at 4.67% Li₂O. These results confirmed the high-grade strike at Mt Marie and will lead to further exploration work to uncover the extent of the mineralisation. This work will include additional programs to identify sub-surface pegmatites and lithium mineralisation.

                                            Figure 5. Artemis Resources Lithium Project Location Map

Figure 6. Artemis Resources Mt Marie rock chip results

Osborne East was also included in the expanded exploration program which was subject to additional sampling, resulting in another round of multiple rock chip assays returning greater than 0.5% Li₂O.

Figure 7. Artemis Resources Osborne East rock chip results

As a result, the strike length of the Osborne East prospect has again been extended through this most recent program with multiple zones of pegmatite extending across an area of 500mx350m and which remains prospective for further growth.

The rock chip assays included the following;

Mt Marie Prospect

o  24AR04-07 - 4.63% Li₂O

o  24AR04-14 - 4.52% Li₂O

o  24AR04-13 - 4.28% Li₂O

o  24AR04-12 - 3.63% Li₂O

o  24AR04-04 - 3.45% Li₂O

Osborne East Prospect

§ 24AR04-20 - 0.69% Li₂O

§ 24AR04-24 - 0.60% Li₂O

§ 24AR04-25 - 0.59% Li₂O

§ 24AR04-26 - 0.59% Li₂O

Rock chip samples previously taken from the Mt Marie prospect were tested for mineralogy type at Curtin University and the analysis confirmed that the host mineral for the lithium is spodumene.

The high grade Li₂O results at Mt Marie confirms the Company has discovered a potentially high-grade system which is important in a regional sense in that it is supported by Azure Minerals' Andover project where a peak rock chip assay result of 4.87% Li₂O was recorded and an exploration target of 100-240Mt @ 1.00-1.5% Li₂O reported.

Osborne Lithium Project (ARV 49%)

A follow-up in-fill soil program comprised of a total 916 samples was completed focussing on the southern portion of the Osborne JV tenement with results from the program reported post-quarter end. The Osborne pegmatite zone is defined by a large associated anomalous lithium soil footprint which has a strike of ~4km and a width of up to 1.3km.

Figure 8. Lithium Soil Footprint Associated with Osborne Pegmatite Cluster

The anomalous footprint eclipses the size of the observed pegmatite outcrop and indicates there is potentially more to be discovered at Osborne. The soils report a peak assay of 712ppm Li₂O and with numerous Li₂O assays greater than 300ppm. This in-fill sampling was undertaken on a 50m x 200m sampling grid.

Paterson Central Project

While the activities completed by the Company during the quarter predominantly focussed on the West Pilbara gold and lithium prospects, Artemis continues to possess a highly strategic landholding in the Paterson gold province. The Paterson Central project consists of a 605km² exploration licence surrounding and adjacent to the Tier 1 Havieron Copper-Gold discovery is also 45km east of Telfer in the Great Sandy Desert of Western Australia.

Corporate

During the period the Company spent $0.5 million on exploration and $0.5 million on administration and overheads.

The Company received the balance of funds of $1.6 million relating to the capital raise announced in May 2024, following shareholder approval of the additional capacity to issue shares.

The Company paid directors salaries and fees in the amount of $98,000 for the quarter.

About Artemis Resources

Artemis Resources (ASX/AIM: ARV; FRA: ATY; US: ARTTF) is a gold, copper and lithium focused resources company with projects in Western Australia. The Company's main projects include;

·     Karratha Gold Project including the Carlow Castle 704k oz AuEq gold-copper-cobalt project in the West Pilbara;

·     Karratha Lithium Project including the high grade Mt Marie Lithium Prospect and the Osborne Lithium JV (Artemis 49%; GreenTech Metals (ASX:GRE 51%)

·     Paterson Central Gold/Copper project in the Paterson Province (located adjacent to Greatland Gold / Newmont's recent gold-copper discovery at Havieron and only ~42km from the Newmont Telfer gold mine).

·     Artemis also owns the Radio Hill processing plant, located only 35km from Karratha.

Artemis is focused on discovering multiple gold prospects within its +200km² tenement package that can build upon the initial Mineral Resource at Carlow. The majority of the tenement package has been lightly explored and is now the subject of methodical exploration programs with a view to identify all gold zones, veins, structures and faults.

The Company will also continue to progress the Karratha Lithium project including the high grade Mt Marie prospect and will look to advance this exciting project through further field work which will lead to drilling the most advanced targets in due course.
