Quarterly Activities Report

For the period ending 31 December 2025

_______________________________________________________________________________

 

Artemis Resources Limited ('Artemis' or the 'Company') (ASX: ARV) is pleased to provide its Quarterly Activities Report for the period ended 31 December 2025 (the quarter).

During the quarter, the Company delivered a significant exploration breakthrough at the Titan East prospect within the Karratha Gold-Copper Project, advanced development studies at Carlow, and expanded its copper growth pipeline through the execution of a new earn-in and joint venture agreement in the Madura Province. Artemis also entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding to collaboratively assess processing options for the Elizabeth Hill Silver mine and positioned its technical team for drilling programs scheduled in early 2026.

Quarter Highlights (December 2025)

· Titan East discovery breakthrough: Confirmation of a new shear-hosted gold system with high-grade results of 5m @ 13.1g/t Au (25ARRC006) and 19m @ 1.6g/t Au (25ARRC025), supporting an emerging mineralised trend over approximately 600m strike and triggering follow-up diamond drilling (refer to ASX announcement dated 29 October 2025 and 19 December 2025).

· Carlow development studies initiated: Commencement of a conceptual mining study to assess potential open pit and underground development scenarios in parallel with planned extensional drilling (refer to ASX announcement dated 17 November 2025).

· Madura Province expansion: Execution of an earn-in and joint venture agreement with Red Metal Limited to earn up to 60% of the Sharon Dam IOCG Project, establishing a second district-scale copper growth opportunity alongside Cassowary (refer to ASX announcements dated 24 December 2025).

· Radio Hill optionality advanced: Signing of a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding with West Coast Silver to assess the suitability of the Radio Hill Processing Plant for potential toll treatment opportunities (refer to ASX announcement dated 4 December 2025).

· Post-quarter corporate update: Julian Hanna transitioned from Technical Director to Project Manager (Cassowary and Sharon Dam) under a consultancy agreement effective 1 January 2026 (refer to ASX announcement dated 31 December 2025). Artemis announced its intention to delist from the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange, with the objective of reducing costs and compliance overheads and consolidating trading liquidity on ASX (refer ASX announcement dated 15 January 2025).

Karratha Gold-Copper Project

Titan East Gold Discovery

 

The December quarter was headlined by a transition from exploration targeting to discovery at the Titan East prospect, located approximately 1.5km northwest of the Carlow Gold-Copper Resource (refer to ASX announcement dated 29 October 2025).

 

Assay results from the first reverse circulation (RC) hole drilled to test a newly identified north-east trending shear zone returned a high-grade intersection of 5m @ 13.1g/t Au from 132m in hole 25ARRC006, representing the first drilling to test this interpreted structural position (refer to ASX announcement dated 29 October 2025).

 

Follow-up drilling confirmed continuity of mineralisation along the shear zone, with hole 25ARRC025 intersecting 19m @ 1.6g/t Au from 127m, supporting the presence of a coherent mineralised system, (refer to ASX announcement dated 19 December 2025).

 

Gold mineralisation is associated with vein quartz and alteration within a structural zone parallel to the Regal Thrust, the same regional-scale structure that hosts the Carlow deposit. The Titan East area is largely obscured by transported sediments, which has historically limited the effectiveness of surface exploration and highlights the importance of drilling-led discovery.

 

In response to these results, Artemis commenced diamond drilling during the quarter to define the geometry, orientation and potential scale of the mineralised shear zone. Diamond hole 25ARDD006 was collared on 10 December 2025, with early core observations confirming successful intersection of the targeted structure at depth. Assay results were pending at quarter end (refer to ASX announcement dated 19 December 2025).

 

Next steps (March 2026 quarter):

· Completion and assay of diamond drilling

· Follow-up diamond drilling to test strike and depth continuity

· Integration of results into the Carlow-Titan geological model

 

Carlow Gold-Copper Project

The Carlow Gold-Copper Project remains a cornerstone asset within Artemis' Pilbara portfolio, hosting a JORC 2012 Inferred Mineral Resource of 374koz gold and 64kt copper (refer to ASX announcement dated 13 October 2022), which remains open along strike to the east and at depth below approximately 380 metres vertical.

 

During the quarter, Artemis commenced a conceptual mining study, being undertaken by independent consultants Snowden-Optiro, (refer to ASX announcement dated 17 November 2025), to assess potential development scenarios and support ongoing technical evaluation of the project.

 

The study is examining a range of open pit and underground optimisation concepts and is being conducted in parallel with planned extensional drilling. This work is being advanced against a materially stronger commodity price environment compared with the assumptions underpinning the October 2022 Mineral Resource Estimate.

 

 

Outputs from the study are intended to guide near-term decision-making, including drill targeting priorities, resource growth opportunities, metallurgical sampling requirements and early-stage development pathways.

 

Next steps (March 2026 quarter):

· Completion of the conceptual mining study

· Integration of drilling results into updated geological and development assessments

Madura Province - Copper Growth Strategy

Cassowary Exploration Project

Artemis is systematically advancing its 1,129km² landholding along the Madura Crustal Boundary in south-eastern Western Australia, targeting large-scale IOCG-style copper-gold systems.

Following execution of the Land Access Agreement with the Pila Nguru (Aboriginal Corporation) RNTBC in October 2025, (refer to ASX announcement dated 13 October 2025), the Company has full operational access to the granted 341km² core exploration licence (E69/4266).

Cassowary is centred on an interpreted intrusive complex situated along a major lithospheric boundary separating the Yilgarn Craton from the Albany-Fraser Orogen, a geological setting considered favourable for large-scale intrusion-related mineral systems.

During the quarter, work programs were lodged for four initial diamond drill sites, targeting the core of the interpreted Cassowary Intrusion (Target T1) and associated structural corridors. These programs are designed to test the presence of copper-gold mineralisation beneath transported cover.

Sharon Dam IOCG Project (Earn-In / Joint Venture)

During the quarter, Artemis executed an Earn-In and Joint Venture agreement with Red Metal Limited (ASX:RDM) to secure a majority interest in the Sharon Dam IOCG Project, (refer to ASX announcements dated 24 December 2025), located approximately 50km south of Cassowary within the same regional structural corridor.

Sharon Dam is defined by a coincident magnetic and gravity anomaly interpreted to represent a prospective intrusive system concealed beneath approximately 250 metres of transported cover, which is materially shallower than many comparable IOCG targets in Australia.

Under the agreement, Artemis may earn up to 60% interest by spending A$5 million over three years, including a minimum A$400,000 drilling commitment within 12 months.

The project has an existing Exploration Incentive Scheme (EIS) co-funding allocation of up to approximately A$220,000, which will reduce net drilling costs but does not count toward the minimum expenditure requirement under the earn-in agreement.

Drilling is targeted for late Q2 2026, subject to heritage clearance.

Corporate

Processing & Infrastructure

Radio Hill Processing Plant

Artemis holds 100% ownership of the fully permitted Radio Hill Processing Plant, located near Karratha in Western Australia.

During the quarter, the Company executed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with West Coast Silver Limited (ASX: WCE) (refer to ASX announcement dated 4 December 2025) to assess the potential suitability of the Radio Hill plant for processing high-grade silver ore from the Elizabeth Hill Silver Mine.

The MoU is assessment-focused only and does not constitute a binding processing or toll treatment agreement. The evaluation is intended to determine whether the existing plant configuration could be optimised to support potential third-party material.

 

This work reinforces the strategic optionality provided by Artemis' infrastructure ownership and the potential for Radio Hill to operate as a regional, multi-commodity processing facility.

Finance and AGM Results

At the Annual General Meeting held on 27 November 2025, shareholders approved all resolutions put to the meeting on a poll, including the adoption of the Remuneration Report, the election and re-election of Directors, and the ratification of prior share issues.

 

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 5.3.1, exploration expenditure during the quarter was primarily directed toward drilling activities at the Karratha Gold-Copper Project (Titan East) and preliminary joint venture costs associated with the Sharon Dam IOCG Project.

 

Board and Management Update

To ensure focused technical execution across its frontier copper growth assets, Julian Hanna transitioned to the role of Project Manager (Cassowary and Sharon Dam) under a consultancy agreement effective 1 January 2026 (refer to ASX announcement dated 31 October 2025).

During the quarter, Ms Vivienne Powe and Mr Guy Robertson retired from the Board. The Board acknowledged their contributions to the Company (refer to ASX announcement dated 29 September 2025 and 27 November 2025).

 

Cash

The Company held approximately $2,446,000 in cash at the end of the quarter. This provides funding into H2 2026 for planned drilling and studies.
