§ Firm commitments received to raise A$4.75 million at A$0.004 per share from institutional and sophisticated investors.

§ The placement was oversubscribed and strongly supported by new and existing institutional investors and existing investor both in Australia and United Kingdom

§ The issue price of $0.004 represents a 20% discount to the last close price and a 27% discount to the 15 day VWAP.

§ Funding will enable advancement of gold exploration programs at Carlow, Titan and Cassowary

§ Board of directors have agreed to invest $110,000, subject to shareholder approval

§ Raise will be in two tranches with tranche 2 to be approved at the upcoming EGM.

§ Placement strengthens the balance sheet with over $5m in treasury

 

Artemis Resources Limited ("Artemis" or "the Company") (ASX/AIM:ARV) is pleased to advise it has received firm commitments for a capital raising of A$4.75 million ("Placing"). The raise received strong support from sophisticated and institutional investors.

 

Artemis will issue 1,187,500,000 new shares at $0.004 per share. The issue price is a 27% discount to the 15 day Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP). Shares will be issued in two tranches approx. 28% (330 million shares under Listing Rule 7.1) in the first tranche and the remaining 72% (857 million shares) following shareholder approval at an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) to be held on a date to be confirmed by the Company in due course.

In addition, the Company will also issue approximately 150,000,000 broker options with an exercise price of $0.001 and expiry date of 3 years after issue ("Broker Options").

 

Use of funds

Artemis will utilise this additional funding to undertake a substantial drill program of up to 5,000m including extensional drilling and technical studies at the Carlow Gold and Copper Project, RC drilling at Titan, and exploration at Cassowary.

1. Carlow Gold and Copper Project - diamond drilling to scope out potential for significant extensions to the Carlow Mineral Resource which contains 374koz gold and 64,000t copper and to provide samples for metallurgical test work and further studies.

2. Titan Gold Targets - shallow low-cost RC drilling of geophysical anomalies in areas with high-grade surface gold occurrences and a brecciated host sequence near previous gold mineralisation encountered in phase 1 drilling this year.

3. Cassowary Intrusion - Gravity survey across a unique untested >5km wide intrusion east of Kalgoorlie to target drilling for potential IOCG-type copper/gold mineralisation.

 

Carlow Gold/Copper Project

Diamond drilling will test the potential for significant extensions to the Carlow high-grade gold and copper lode system, well beyond the current limit of drilling , including:

• Widely spaced holes within a 600m gap along strike between the existing resource and a recent intersection of: 7m @ 2.9g/t Au, including 1m @ 15.3g/t Au

• Widely spaced holes to follow up an historic intersection of: 4m @ 11.1 g/t Au and 2.0% Cu 120m below the Carlow resource, which remains open below 380m

• Project Manager appointed to oversee technical studies including metallurgical test work, conceptual mining studies and a review of processing options

Titan Gold Targets

• Infill gravity survey to confirm 4 gravity anomalies (G1-G4) in an area of surface gold occurrences and strong brecciation within ~2km wide interpreted thrust zone

• RC drilling to test the G1 anomaly and wider ultramafic/sediment sequence which hosts elevated gold in recent drilling up to 0.5g/t Au (peak assay: 1m @ 16.4g/t Au) .

 

Cassowary Intrusion

• Artemis EL application (330km2) covering the large Cassowary Intrusion is expected to be granted in September quarter. Gravity survey planned to assist drill targeting.

• Potential for IOCG type copper-gold mineralisation has added credibility with nearby applications by WA1 Resources (2 adjacent EL's) and Teck Resources (7 EL's)

 

The capital raise was led by CPS Capital in Australia and Zeus Capital in the UK.

 

Admission

The Placing will be conducted in two tranches, with the First Tranche of 330 million shares (the "First Tranche Placing Shares") being issued and allotted under Artemis' existing shareholder authorities and the Second Tranche of 857 million shares (the "Second Tranche Placing Shares") being issued and allotted subject to the necessary resolutions being duly passed at the General Meeting.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the admission of the First Tranche Placing Shares to trading on AIM. It is anticipated that admission will take place on or around 8.00 a.m. on 23 July 2025. Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the admission of the Second Tranche Placing Shares to trading on AIM following the General Meeting.

Following admission of the First Tranche Placing Shares, the Company will have 3,723,172,165 Shares in issue. The Placing Shares will represent approximately 15% per cent. of the Company's enlarged share capital and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing ordinary shares.

This figure of 3,723,172,165 Ordinary Shares may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the voting rights of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
