Artemis and West Coast Silver Sign Joint Memorandum of
Understanding on Radio Hill
HIGHLIGHTS
• West Coast Silver (ASX: WCE) and Artemis Resources (ASX: ARV) have jointly executed a non-
binding Memorandum of Understanding to collaboratively assess processing options for the
Elizabeth Hill Silver Mine.
• The evaluation will focus on the suitability of the Radio Hill Processing Plant to potentially treat
material from West Coast Silver’s Elizabeth Hill Silver Mine.
• Both parties will exchange relevant technical, metallurgical, logistical, and engineering
information. Site visits and joint technical assessments will be undertaken where required.
• Any future toll treatment or commercial arrangement remains subject to a separate definitive
agreement following a positive technical and commercial assessment.
Artemis Resources Limited (ASX/AIM: ARV) (Artemis or the Company) is pleased to announce that it
has entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with West Coast Silver Limited
(ASX: WCE) (West Coast) to evaluate the potential for Artemis’ Radio Hill Processing Plant, located near
Karratha, to process material sourced from West Co ast’s Elizabeth Hill Silver Mine in the Pilbara.
Under the terms of the MOU, West Coast and Artemis will work together in good faith to determine
whether the Radio Hill Processing Plant could feasibly and economically process ore or material
originating from the Elizabeth Hill Silver Mine. This cooperation includes the exchange of technical data,
metallurgical samples, plant configuration details, and logistical information relating to transport and
handling.
Artemis Resources Executive Director, Jozsef Patarica commented:
“Radio Hill has historically demonstrated versatility across multiple ore types. This cooperation allows us
to assess future processing opportunities while supporting potential development of a high-grade silver
project in our region.”
West Coast Silver Executive Chairman, Bruce Garlick commented:
“Elizabeth Hill is one of Australia’s historically highest-grade silver deposits. The opportunity to assess
Radio Hill as a potential processing solution aligns with our strategy to fast-track development while
maintaining capital discipline.”

About Radio Hill
The Radio Hill Processing Plant is a fully permitted 425,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) nickel–copper
concentrator located 35 km south of Karratha in Western Australia’s Pilbara region. Artemis purchased
the plant in 2016 and surrounding assets from Fox Resources. The plant includes flotation circuits,
tailings storage facility, administration and maintenance buildings, fully developed underground mine
and Gekko gravity plant. The plant remains on care and maintenance but can be rapidly recommissioned.

About The Elizabeth Hill Project
Elizabeth Hill is historically one of Australia’s highest grade silver projects and has a proven production
history outlined below:
• High grades enabled low processing tonnes: 1.2Moz of silver was produced from just 16,830t of
ore at a head grade of 2,194g/t (70.5 oz/t Ag)1
.
• Previous mining operation ceased in 2000: because of low silver prices (US$5)2
.
• Simplistic historical processing technique: native silver was recovered via low-cost gravity
separation techniques.
• Untapped potential remains in ground with deposit open at depth and recent consolidation of
land package offers potential to discover more Elizabeth Hill style deposits.
• Tier 1 Mining Jurisdiction located on a mining lease with potential processing option at the
nearby Radio Hill site. Radio Hill is a third-party-owned processing facility; WCE has no current
agreement in place.
Through the consolidation of the surrounding land packages into a single contiguous 180km2
package
significant exploration and growth potential exists both near mine and regionally. The land package holds
a significant portion of the Munni Munni fault system, and other fault systems subparallel to the Munni
Munni fault system, which are considered prospective for Elizabeth Hill look-a-like silver deposits.
