| ABSTRACT: | Artemis Resources Limited (“Artemis” or “the Company”) (ASX:ARV, Frankfurt:ATY, US OTC:ARTTF) is pleased to announce a significant improvement in this latest JORC 2012 resource estimate for the company’s 100% owned Whundo Copper Mine in the West Pilbara region of Western Australia. The October 2018 resource estimate is classified to JORC 2012 compliant Indicated category. Artemis’ Chief Executive Officer Wayne Bramwell commented: “Thisresource upgrade hasseen a circa 30% uplift in the Whundo sulphide resource to 2.2Mt and contained copper and zinc metal tonnes has grown significantly to ≈60,000t combined. The shallow oxide resource is entirely new. Whundo was shut down in 2008 due to low copper and zinc prices. It is a valuable asset, considering it is an approved Mining Lease and is so close to our Radio Hill processing plant. The oxide grade of 1.75% Cu is tantalizing and with thiszone extending from nearsurface to ≈40m below surface, Artemis is evaluating the integration of SX-EW processing at Radio Hill. In addition, the larger sulfide zone could provide an additional blending source that could supplement Carlow Castle ore and further enhance copper grade to the Radio Hill Operations.” The Whundo Copper Project is in the West Pilbara region of Western Australia, ~50 km by road south of Karratha (Figure 2). Access is along the Karratha / Tom Price sealed road, and then mine access tracks. Whundo is on a fully approved mining lease and is located only about 7km from Artemis’ 100% owned Radio Hill Processing Plant. Whundo was the last ore to be processed through the Radio Hill sulphide plant when the mine and plant were placed in to care and maintenance in 2008 due to low copper prices. | |
