CHAIRMAN’S LETTER 

Dear Shareholders, 

On behalf of the Directors of Artemis Resources Limited, I am pleased to report on the activities 
of the Group for the year ended 30 June 2023.  

Artemis has a portfolio of valuable assets in the Pilbara, including the Greater Carlow (Au-Cu-
Co) project, its Osborne joint venture with GreenTech Metals (Li), the Radio Hill processing plant 
(Au/Ni/Cu/Co)  in  the  West  Pilbara,  and  the  Paterson  Central  project  (Au/Cu)  in  the  East 
Pilbara.   

A  strategic  review  in  May  2023  reaffirmed  the  Company’s  commitment  to  the  Pilbara,  a 
realignment of its corporate focus and a significant reduction in overhead costs.  

At  Greater  Carlow  the  Company  undertook  a  rapid  assessment  exploration  programme  to 
identify new mineralisation within a 25km radius of the Carlow Castle deposit. This program was 
successful  in  identifying  new  targets  at  LuLu  Creek,  Europa,  Marillion  and  Titan.  Artemis 
calculated  an  Exploration  target  of  between  200,000  and  500,000  oz  Au  Eq  to  build  on  the 
existing 704,000 oz Au Eq resource. 

The  drill  program  at  Paterson  Central,  located  2km  north  and  along  strike  of  Newcrest  & 
Greatland Gold’s 6.5 Moz AuEq Havieron gold-copper discovery was a technical success, and 
an expensive program. Artemis is continuing to evaluate third-party interest to fund the next 
stage  of  Paterson  Central  exploration  including  potential  financing  and  joint  venture 
opportunities.  

The Osborne Lithium-Nickel joint venture project where Artemis has been free carried for over 
$1  million  testing  a  nickel  project,  identified  a  significant  lithium  prospect  with  rock  chip 
samples of up to 3.6% Li2O. Artemis has one of the largest West Pilbara tenement holdings (see 
image 1) between the joint venture with Greentech to the west and the major Li discovery by 
Azure in the east.  

The Company is well capitalised with current cash balance of $1.7 million as at 30 June 2023, 
a 10% interest in Greentech Metals with value over $3 million, and share options in the money 
with potential to raise $2.5 million. With an efficient management structure, the Company is 
looking  forward  to  a  positive  year  in  2023/2024  to  build  on  its  existing  assets  and  new 
opportunities identified by it and its joint venture partner. 

We welcomed Vivienne Powe as a director during the year, and I take this opportunity to thank 
Mark Potter, Alastair Clayton and Ed Mead for their service to Artemis. The contribution of the 
Artemis team, consultants and advisers is also appreciated. 

To our shareholders, including existing and new shareholders who supported the capital raise 
in February 2023, we appreciate your commitment in what has been a challenging year for 
many exploration companies but a year of positive change and opportunity for Artemis.  

We look forward to building on shareholder value in the year ahead. 

Guy Robertson 
Chairman

OPERATIONS REPORT 

Artemis  Resources  Limited  (“Artemis”  or  the  “Company”)  is  pleased  to  outline  the  progress  the 
Company has made at its projects for the financial year ended 30 June 2023.  

Artemis is a gold copper and lithium focused resource exploration company with three major projects 
within the Pilbara region of Western Australia (Figure 1). The Paterson Central and the Greater Carlow 
projects are held 100% by the Company while 49% interest is held over the Osborne Joint Venture (JV) 
with GreenTech Minerals (“GreenTech”) who hold 51%. In addition, the Company owns 100% of the 
strategically  located  Radio  Hill  processing  plant  (on  care  and  maintenance)  and  associated 
infrastructure, located approximately 35km south of Karratha. 

Figure 1: Artemis Resources Project Location Map 

Greater Carlow Exploration Activities (Lithium) 

During  the  June  quarter  the  Company  completed  a  review  of  the  lithium  potential  of  its  Greater 
Carlow  project  after  neighbouring  exploration  companies  identified  significant  lithium  pegmatite 
mineralisation  within  units  of  the  Andover  Mafic  Intrusive  that  also  underly  significant  portions  of 
Artemis tenure. 

A  review  of  the  Company’s  historic  regional  exploration  soils  database  indicated  elevated  lithium 
and lithium pathfinder elements within exploration licences E47/1746 and E47/1797 (Figures 2 and 3).

OPERATIONS REPORT 

The  data  has  defined  seven  distinct  lithium  cluster  anomalies  within  E47/1797  and  E47/1746  with 
elevated Lithium above the 95th percentile. Two of these anomalies also correspond with two broad 
rubidium  anomalies,  and  form  part  of  the  initial  reconnaissance  programs  in  identifying  potential 
lithium bearing pegmatites. 

First  pass  field  reconnaissance  exploration  programmes  have  now  commenced  to  investigate  the 
source of the lithium soil anomalies. 

Osborne Joint Venture (Artemis 49%) 

Exploration Activities (Lithium) 

Two lithium bearing pegmatite trends have been identified within exploration licence E47/3719 by JV 
partner GreenTech (Figure 4). The two trends consist of a northern and southern trend, each of which 
has been interpreted as traversing east-west. 

The northern Kobe trend currently has approximately 1.4 km of strike within the Osborne JV. Test work 
conducted  by  Curtin  University  by  way  of  XRD  analysis  on  a  sample  from  the  first  phase  of  the 
sampling  program  confirmed  that  the  lithium  bearing  mineral  is  spodumene.  The  yet  unnamed 
southern trend also had its lithium species classified as spodumene by XRD analysis at ALS Metallurgy. 

High tenor lithium assays received within the project area include: 

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

3.6% Li2O from Sample 23CR038 
2.3% Li2O from Sample 23CR039 
1.8% Li2O from Sample 23GT11-041 
1.7% Li2O from Sample 23GT11-042 
1.58% Li2O from Sample 23GT11-039 

Figure 4: Lithium rock sample assays and trend lines within Osborne JV Tenement E47/3719 

Further lithium exploration is planned on the Osborne JV tenement in the forthcoming year with 
sampling and mapping aimed at identifying the full extent of the mineralised pegmatite zones and 
the consistency of the lithium mineralogy and grade. Preparations have commenced to enable a 
maiden drilling program, subject to receiving all approvals.

Greater Carlow Project 

Carlow Castle Mineral Resource Update (gold-copper-cobalt) 

The  Carlow  Castle  deposit  is  on  granted  exploration  licence  E47/1797  and  is  35  km  from  Artemis 
resources 100% owned Radio Hill processing plant. 

An updated, high-grade Inferred Mineral Resource estimate (“MRE”) was released by Artemis on 13 
October  2022.  The  MRE,  prepared  in  collaboration  with  independent  consultants  Snowden  Optiro 
was produced utilising new wireframes and data produced by the 2022 drill program. 

The new Inferred Mineral Resource was estimated to contain 704,000 oz Au Eq at 2.5 g/t Au Eq1 from 
8.74 Mt from a combined open pit and underground source. 

The Mineral Resource for Carlow is presented in Tables 1 and 2 and Figures 5 and 6. All three deposits 
forming Carlow are open at depth, with Quod Est and Crosscut open along strike (Figures 5 and 6).

Basis for metal equivalents: 

1. Metallurgical factors 

In 2019, ALS Metallurgy in Perth completed preliminary metallurgical testwork on two 100 kg drill core 
composite samples. The metallurgical testwork demonstrated a potential Carlow Castle ore flowsheet 
utilising  gravity  and  cyanide  leach  for  gold,  and  flotation  to  produce  copper  and  cobalt 
concentrates. Details are: 

•  48%  of  the  gold  in  testwork  on  metallurgical  samples  was  recovered  using  gravity 
separation,  and  most  of  the  balance  of  the  non-gravity  gold  is  recoverable  in  sulphide 
concentrates  as  a  by-product,  using  standard  flotation.  The  total  recovery  of  gold 
achieved was 94.8%. 

•  Quick floating copper minerals produced a high-grade, premium copper concentrate of 

approximately 30% copper. 

•  Deleterious  elements,  including  arsenic,  could  be  managed  with  a  light  concentrate 
polishing using regrind or blend control. Recoveries depended on mineralogy, with 77% to 
85% copper recoveries achieved. 

•  Unrecovered  copper  minerals  are  non-floating  silicates  or  secondary  oxide  copper 

minerals. 

•  Cobalt recoveries ranged from 73%  to79%. Saleable cobalt concentrate grades ranging 
from 2.3% to 5.3% cobalt were produced. Cobaltite (CoAsS) is the dominant cobalt bearing 
mineral, and is therefore intrinsically linked to arsenic, affecting its sale price. 

The metallurgical factors used for the Mineral Resource estimate are presented in Table 3.

2. Gold Equivalent formula 

The gold equivalent formula used in the calculation of an Au Eq. grade uses the following parameters: 

Oxide 

Au Eq. equation = Au (g/t) + Cu(%) x 0.86 + Co(%) x 2.31 

Transitional 

Au Eq equation = Au (g/t) + Cu(%) x 0.81 + Co(%) x 2.17 

Fresh 

Au Eq equation = Au (g/t) + Cu(%) x 1.31 + Co(%) x 3.96 

Au: gold; Cu: copper; Co: cobalt. 

It is the Competent Persons’ view that all elements contributing to the gold equivalent calculation 
have the potential to be extracted and sold. 

Greater Carlow Exploration Activities (gold-copper-cobalt) 

Most  of  the  exploration  activities  conducted  over  the  Greater  Carlow  project  focussed  on  target 
generation  via  the  acquisition  of  geophysical  and  geochemical  data  over  exploration  licence 
E47/1797 and E47/1746. 

Commencing in July 2022, Atlas Geophysics collected 1,712 gravity stations on a nominal 200 m by 
200 m grid across the Greater Carlow project including a small infill program (100 m by 100 m) over 
Carlow and a new gravity occurrence now known as the Europa target. The data was processed by 
Sothern Geoscience Consultants (SGS) who produced both 2D imagery and 3D inversion models. 

The  Europa  Target  is  located  approximately  1.7  km  south-west  along  strike  of  the  of  the  Carlow 
deposit. It is situated within a structurally bound gravity high on the southern side of the Regal Thrust 
within  the  prospective  Roebourne  Complex  (Figure  7).  Its  structural  and  gravity  signature  are  of  a 
similar  nature  to  Carlow  deposit  and  has  been  identified  by  Artemis  are  requiring  additional 
exploration focus.

OPERATIONS REPORT 

Figure 7: Image of gravity with magnetics in the background as light grey. Note the location of 
the Europa gravity target which is coincident with a structurally anomalous magnetic signature. 
The gravity at Europa reflects the size and magnitude of that at the Carlow deposit. 

During  the  December  and  March  quarters  a  total  of  432  Ultrafine  Fraction  (UFF)  soil  samples  were 
collected from three locations within the immediate vicinity of the Carlow Castle MRE with a focus 
around structures and splays associated with the Regal Thrust. 

Finalised and interpreted results from the soils program defined a strong coincident gold (Au) and 
arsenic (As) anomaly over an area of 750 m by 550 m at a location named Titan. Titan is located 1.8 
km north-west of Carlow Castle, adjacent to a secondary splay thrust north of the Regal Thrust and is 
associated with sheared, altered basalts, and banded cherts with ex-sulphide voids. 

Anomalous zones of copper in the order of 100 ppm were also identified by the UFF soils program with 
a zone forming over the north-west margin of the Europa target as well as a new zone immediately 
north of the Marillion electromagnetic (EM) target, with a peak copper in soils value of 258 ppm. This 
occurrence  is  situated  near  the  tenement  boundary  and  is  likely  associated  with  gold-copper 
mineralisation identified by Novo Resources Corp. at their Morto Largo Prospect. 

A series of electrical surveys under the management of SGC also took place at the greater Carlow 
project during the reporting period. These included Moving Loop Electromagnetic (MLEM) surveys, 
Down Hole EM surveys and a Fixed Loop Electromagnetic (FLEM) survey. 

Two  sets  of  MLEM  surveys  were  completed  during  the  financial  year  (Figure  8)  with  one  survey 
completed in July 2022 across an area between Chapman and the eastern side of Carlow Castle, 
while  the  second  survey  completed  in  May  and  June  2023  covered  a  series  of  prospects  in  the 
immediate vicinity of Carlow Catle.

OPERATIONS REPORT 

Figure 8: MLEM Survey Area and DHEM Drill Hole Location Map 

The first survey identified a significant anomaly 450 m east of the Carlow Keel with a conductance 
between 3000 to 5000S with dimensions of at least 400 m by 400 m at a depth starting from 300 m 
below surface. 

The second MLEM surveys occurred over the Carlow Castle deposit and the prospects Carlow North, 
Marillion North, Europa and Titan. 

Four new EM conductor plates were identified from the survey being of low to strong conductance 
as well as one historic VTEM conductor historically referred to as Stoneham, north of the Europa gravity 
anomaly  (Figure  9  and  Table  4).  The  conductors  described  are  within  highly  resistive  ground 
conditions  such  that  the  EM  anomalies  should  be  considered  prospective  in  identifying  sulphide 
mineralisation.

3D conductor plate models have been provided by SGC and they are currently being assessed from 
a geological perspective and ranked for follow up investigation. Of particular interest are conductors 
CCN1  and  CCN2  which  have  a  moderate  to  high  conductance.  Both  conductance  plates  are 
immediately  north  of  the  Carlow  Castle  deposit  and  have  not  been  previously  drill  tested. 
Additionally,  CCN1 is associated with a chargeability anomaly identified  from a  dipole – dipole IP 
survey completed across Carlow Castle in 2021.

OPERATIONS REPORT 

Four  DHEM  surveys  were  completed  in  August  2002  to  assess  the  potential  for  off  hole  conductors 
(Figure  8).  The  surveys  occurred  in  drill  holes  ARC387  (Carlow  Castle  Cross  Cut  load),  ARC407 
(Marillion) ARC407 (Chapman) and 22CHRD001 (Chapman). 

ARC387: DHEM identified a weak in hole/off hole anomalism at ~125 m to 145 m down hole as multiple 
narrow sources. This corresponds well to the copper mineralisation within the drill core. As well as this, 
an off-hole anomaly with weak/moderate strength at ~115 m to 120 m down hole has been identified, 
source is above and right of hole – N/NW of hole. 

ARC406:  DHEM  identified  a  deep  off  hole  conductor  to  the  north  confirming  the  Marillion  MLEM 
conductor. Modelling indicated a south dipping body of at least 400 m by 400 m aerial size 350m 
below surface with a conductance greater than 5,000S. 

ARC407:  DHEM  identified  weak  broad  off  hole  anomalism  centred  at  ~60  m  by  70  m  down  hole. 
Source is above and left – south of hole. 

22CHRD001 DHTEM identified weak off hole anomalism, approx. source appears sub-parallel to hole 
geometry  centred  at  ~55  m  by  80  m  down  hole  with  a  localised  source.  Relatively  weak/low 
conductance and limited areal size.  

In  October  2002  a  FLTEM  survey  was  complete  over  Marillion  identifying  a  significant  >11,000S 
conductance  with  an  area  size  of  500  m  to  600  m  in  strike  and  250  m  to  360  m  down  dip  extent 
(Figures 10). 

Figure 10: 3D oblique view of the Carlow resource and spatial location of the Marillion ‘plates’ 

Whilst >9,000s conductance is considered by the Artemis exploration team to be of material interest 
and >10,0000 a strong candidate to be drilled, 11,000s of conductance is of regionally exceptional 
tenor. Depth to the top of the anomaly is 350 m to 450 m and the anomaly dips at 40 to the south-
southwest. 

Also of note is the potential relationship between the Marillion Target and the eastern portion of the 
Carlow MRE and the Carlow Keel Zone. Spatially there is approximately 450 m distance between the 
high-grade Carlow keel drilling, which remains open in multiple directions and the Marillion Target

OPERATIONS REPORT 

Greater Carlow Exploration – Gold 

Lulu Creek lies 20 km to the west of Artemis’s Carlow Castle deposit and forms part of the prospective 
Greater Carlow area. It was previously known as Patterson’s Hut and Carlow West and was initially 
identified in 2018 via a regional soils and rock chip program defining an area of interest over 4 km in 
an  east-northeast  orientation.  Subsequent  mapping  and  rock  chip  sampling  identified  gold 
associated with quartz veins and gossans, and in an unclassified weathered unit with a light covering 
of transported sands and gravels. 

In 2020, Artemis completed 126 RC drill holes with an average hole depth of 20 m and a maximum 
hole depth of 50 m. The drill program was technically successful identifying numerous low-grade 
zones of gold mineralisation associated with disseminated sulphides and quartz veins within a 2 km 
east-northeast trending quartz diorite intrusion (Figure 11). 

Significant intercepts from the drill program included: 

•  2 m @ 1.62 g/t gold from 34 m in CWRC006 
•  1 m @ 4.89 g/t gold and 13.7 g/t silver from 24 m in CWRC011 
•  1 m @ 1.15 g/t gold from 9 m in CWRC017 

Figure 11: Lulu Creek Intrusion displaying 0.3 g/t gold metre gram contours. 

At the time of the 2020 drill program, the significance of intrusion related gold within the Pilbara was 
not fully appreciated with resources being directed to more advanced projects within the company 
portfolio. 

Following  the  conclusion  of  the  2022  drill  season,  a  comprehensive  exploration  focused  strategic 
review was completed across Artemis tenure re-identifying the potential of the Lulu Creek prospect. 
Drill  chips  from  the  2020  RC  program  were  re-logged  and  assays  re-processed  to  generate  a  new 
interpretation. Coincidently, work completed by the GSWA identified the presence of ‘Sanukitoid like’ 
intrusive bodies around the Karratha (granitoid) Dome 2.5 km north-west of the Lulu Creek intrusion, 
which indicates mantle fluid pathways in the area.

Lulu  Creek  is  also  situated  along  the  margin  of  the  90  km  long  Regal  Thrust.  Splays  and  secondary 
structures associated with the thrust, host mineral occurrences including the Carlow Castle deposit. 

A  15-line  dipole-dipole  Induced  Polarisation  (IP)  survey  commenced  at  the  end  of  June  2023.  This 
identified two chargeability anomalies within the Lulu Creek intrusion, adjacent to a moderate-high 
resistive body interpreted as representing significant alteration and veining (Figures 12 and 13). A third 
IP Chargeability anomaly was identified just off the intrusion along the Regal Thrust (Figure 12), which 
corresponds with outcropping gossanous BIF and ultramafic rocks at surface.

Exploration Activities (gold-copper) 

A total of 5,135 m of diamond drilling was completed at the Apollo and Atlas prospects during the 
reporting period from five completed drill holes (Table 4 and Figure 14) consisting of two holes at Atlas 
and three holes at Apollo. At the Apollo prospect sulphide mineralisation associated with breccias 
was identified peripheral to, and within a dolerite.

Drilling from GDRCD006 (extension), 22PTMRD0010 and 22PTMRD011 defined a north-west  trending 
splay fault intruded by a dolerite sill. Along with reprocessed geophysics received in September 2022 
(Figure 15), Artemis has been able to determine that the Apollo target is one part of a ~1.5 km long 
magnetic anomaly with a structural setting like the nearby Havieron deposit.

Figure 16: Section 462,350mE looking east showing drill hole trace gold and copper intersections 

on geology and magnetics highlighted in red dashed lines. Au: gold; Cu: copper. 

Assay results received to date show sporadic gold and copper occurs within a suite of rocks that in 
places are like those described at the nearby Haveron deposit2. From examination of the exploration 
history at Havieron2 it is evident that the discovery of large intercepts of multi-sulphide endowed, high-
temperature crackle breccias and veining does not confirm the presence of gold. Furthermore, the 
exploration history2 at Havieron indicates that holes with exceptionally large gram-metre intercepts 
(HAD005) can be as little as 50 m from holes that return no significant results (HAD006). 

The  intrusion  event  and  timing  of  the  quartz-carbonate  breccia  is  still  in  debate;  however  initial 
interpretations show: 

•  Mineralisation  does  not  appear  to  be  related  to  the  dolerite;  however  remobilisation  of 

• 

• 

• 
• 

sulphides does occur along the sill margin. 
The mineralisation at Apollo is structurally controlled, i.e. coincident with veining and later-
stage brecciation. 
There  are  at  least  two  phases  of  breccias,  a  hydrothermal  fluidised  occurrence  as  noted 
near  the  contact  of  the  dolerite  and  a  tectonic  event,  as  indicated  by  the  presence  of 
quartz-carbonate matrix support breccias, exhibiting angular clasts. 
The mineralisation noted in hole 22PTMRD010 occurs higher up and not near the dolerite.  
The  source  of  the  mineralisation  at  Apollo  appears  to  be  deeper  to  the  NE  and  may  be 
related to the magnetic flexure and the central de-magnetised zone as shown in Figure 15.

OPERATIONS REPORT 

An independent exploration review of the Central Paterson Project was conducted in May and June 
2023. The review was completed by Merlin Geophysics whose principal was the Principal Geoscientist 
for  Greatland  Gold  PLC  from  2020  –  2021.  The  review  focus  was  to  assess  the  effectiveness  of 
exploration completed by Artemis since the grant of the tenure in 2020, as well as to re-evaluate the 
prospectivity across the project. 

The  review  was  positive  towards  Artemis  exploration  to  date  in  targeting  for  Havieron  style 
mineralisation with the Company being effective in: 

•  Acquisition  of  geophysical  and  geochemical  surveys  with  appropriate  parameters  and 

methodologies. 

•  Processing and interpretation of the datasets to a high standard. 
• 
•  Drilling has effectively tested Apollo, Atlas, and Nimitz target areas. 

Targeting has considered elements of key criteria and has been complete to a high standard. 

The review also identified the use of electrical geophysical methods to improve targeting including 
IP/EM in areas with shallower cover and Audiomagnetotellurics (AMT) and Magnetotellurics (MT) in 
areas with deeper cover. 

Merlin  Geophysics  also  identified  exploration  potential  in  other  mineralisation  models  including 
orogenic and strata-bound copper-gold mineralisation across the project but noted the difficulty in 
conducting exploration given the depths of Permian cover over the basement. 

Artemis will seek a partner to advance the project, which may include JV, earn-in or outright sale.

Mr  Guy  Robertson  was  appointed  Company  Secretary  on  12

Significant Changes in State of Affairs 

There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company during the year.  

Principal Activities 

The principal activity of the Company during the financial year was mineral exploration. There 
have been no significant changes in the nature of the Company’s principal activities during 
the financial year. 

Significant Events after Balance Sheet Date  

There are currently no matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the financial 
year that have significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations the Group, the 
results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Group in the future financial years. 

Likely Future Developments and Expected Results 

The primary objective of Artemis is to explore its current tenements in Australia with a view to 
determining  an  economically  viable  gold  resource  at  Paterson  Central  and  a  viable 
gold/copper/cobalt  resource  for  processing  at  the  Fox  Radio  Hill  processing  plant.  More 
recently the Company received positive news on the lithium potential in its joint venture with 
GreenTech Metals Limited and on its own tenement portfolio.   

The  material  business  risks  faced  by  the  Company  that  are  likely  to  have  an  effect  on  the 
financial prospects of the Company, and how the Company manages these risks, are: 

(a)  Future  Capital  Needs  –  the  Company  does  not  currently  generate  cash  from  its 
operations. The Company will require further funding in order to meet its corporate 
expenses,  continue  its  exploration  activities  and  complete  studies  necessary  to 
assess  the  economic  viability  of  its  projects.  The  Company’s  financial  position  is 
monitored on a regular basis and processes put into place to ensure that fund raising 
activities will be conducted in a timely manner to ensure the Company has sufficient 
funds to conduct its activities. 

(b)  Exploration and Developments Risks – the business of exploration for gold, copper, 
lithium and other minerals and their development involves a significant degree of 
risk, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation 
may not be able to overcome. To prosper, the Company depends on factors that 
include  successful  exploration  and  the  establishment  of  resources  and  reserves 
within  the  meaning  of  the  2012  JORC  Code.  The  Company  may  fail  to  discover 

Artemis Resources Limited Annual Financial Report 2023 

25 

 
 
 
 
 
 
DIRECTORS’ REPORT 

mineral  resources  on  its  projects  and  once  determined,  there  is  a  risk  that  the 
Company’s  mineral  deposits  may  not  be  economically  viable.  The  Company 
employs  geologists  and  other  technical  specialists  and  engages  external 
consultants where appropriate to address this risk. 

(c)  Commodity  Price  Risk  –  as  a  Company  which  is  focused  on  the  exploration  of 
precious  and  base  metals  and  battery  metals,  it  is  exposed  to  movements  in  the 
price  of  these  commodities.  The  Company  monitors  historical  and  forecast  price 
information  from  a  range  of  sources  in  order  to  inform  its  planning  and  decision 
making. 

(d) Title and permit risks - each permit or licence under which exploration activities can 
be undertaken is issued for a specific term and carries with it work commitments and 
reporting  obligations,  as  well  as  other  conditions 
requiring  compliance.  
Consequently, the Company could lose title to, or its interests in, one or more of its 
tenements if conditions are not met or if sufficient funds are not available to meet 
work  commitments.    Any  failure  to  comply  with  the  work  commitments  or  other 
conditions on which a permit or tenement is held exposes the permit or tenement 
to forfeiture or may result in it not being renewed as and when renewal is sought. 
The Company monitors compliance with its commitments and reporting obligations 
using internal and external resources to mitigate this risk. 

Performance in relation to Environmental Regulation 

The Group will comply with its obligations in relation to environmental regulation on its projects 
when  it  undertakes  exploration.  The  Directors  are  not  aware  of  any  breaches  of  any 
environmental regulations during the period covered by this Report.  

Operating Results and Financial Review 

The loss  of the  Group after providing for income  tax amounted to $16,923,543 (2022: loss  of 
$7,529,345). The loss position for the year includes non-cash items comprising fair value loss on 
financial assets of $337,666 (2022: $165,883), impairment of the Radio Hill plant in the amount 
of $12,969,852, a write off of exploration costs of $735,768 (2022: $4,696,301), and share based 
payments in the amount of $475,300 (2022: $112,200).  

The Group’s operating income increased to $80,169 (2022: $33,389). The Company recorded 
a  gain  on  sale  of  projects  in  2022  of  $1,734,962.  The  Group’s  expenses  excluding  the  items 
specified above decreased to $2,485,126 (2022: $4,323,312). 

The  carrying  value  of  exploration  and  development  costs  increased  to  $32,054,704  (2022: 
$27,323,626)  reflecting  exploration  undertaken  during  the  year  and  the  impairment  of  the 
carrying costs of exploration on the Company’s projects. The development expenditure has 
decreased  to  $14,950,070  (2022:  $27,420,924)  following  a  reassessment  and  independent 
valuation of the Radio Hill Plant which remains on care and maintenance.

REMUNERATION REPORT 

REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED  

The remuneration report, which has been audited, outlines the key management personnel 
remuneration  arrangements  for  the  Company,  in  accordance  with  the  requirements  of  the 
Corporations Act 2001 and its regulations.  

At the Annual General Meeting held on 22 November 2022, 35.16% of the votes cast voted 
against  the  adoption  of  the  remuneration  report.  The  Company  was  aware  of  shareholder 
sentiment prior to the meeting and as a consequence two directors, Mr Alastair Clayton and 
Mr Edward Mead resigned from the Board on 21 November 2022. In addition the Chairman, 
Mr Mark Potter resigned from the Board on 31 March 2023. 

The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:  
A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration  
B. Details of remuneration  
C. Service agreements  
D. Share-based compensation  
E. Additional disclosures relating to key management personnel 

A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration 

The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members 
and officers is as follows: 

• 

• 

• 

• 

• 

The remuneration policy, which sets the terms and conditions (where appropriate) for 
the  executive  directors  and  other  senior  staff  members,  was  developed  by  the 
Remuneration Committee and ultimately approved by the Board; 

In determining competitive remuneration rates, the Remuneration Committee may seek 
independent advice on local and international trends among comparative companies 
and industries generally. The Remuneration Committee examines terms and conditions 
for employee incentive schemes, benefit plans and share plans. Independent advice 
may be obtained to confirm that executive remuneration is in line with market practice 
and  is  reasonable  in  the  context  of  Australian  executive  reward  practices.  No 
remuneration consultants were retained by the Group during the year;  

The Company is a mineral exploration company, and therefore speculative in terms of 
performance.  Consistent  with  attracting  and  retaining  talented  executives,  directors 
and senior executives, such personnel are paid market rates associated with individuals 
in similar positions within the same industry. Options and performance incentives may be 
issued particularly as the Company moves from commercialisation to a producing entity 
and  key  performance  indicators  such  as  profit  and  production  can  be  used  as 
measurements for assessing executive performance; 

Given the early stage of the Company’s projects it is not meaningful to track executive 
compensation  to  financial  results  and  shareholder  wealth.  It  is  also  not  possible  to  set 
meaningful specific objective performance criteria for directors as this stage;   

All remuneration paid to directors and officers is valued at the cost to the Company and 
expensed.    Where  appropriate,  shares  given  to  directors,  executives  and  officers  are 
valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid  

Artemis Resources Limited Annual Financial Report 2023

REMUNERATION REPORT 

A.  Principles  used  to  determine  the  nature  and  amount  of  remuneration 
(continued) 

by the director or executive. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology; 
and 

• 

The  policy  is  to  remunerate  non-executive  directors  and  officers  at  market  rates  for 
comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. Given the evolving 
nature  of  the  Group’s  business,  the  Board,  in  consultation  with  independent  advisors, 
determines  payments  to  the  non-executive  directors  and  reviews  their  remuneration 
annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability.  

The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is 
$500,000 per annum. Fees for non-executive directors and officers are not linked to the 
performance of the Company. However, from time to time and subject to obtaining all 
requisite shareholder approvals, the directors and officers will be issued with securities as 
part of their remuneration where it is considered appropriate to do so and as a means 
of aligning their interests with shareholders.

over  the  period  from  grant  date  to  vesting  date,  and  the  amount  is  included  in  the

of the underlying shares, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term 
of the option.

favourable than those that the entity would have adopted if dealing at arm’s length.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Basis of Preparation 

in 
The  financial  statements  are  general  purpose  financial  statements  prepared 
accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, 
other  authoritative  pronouncements  of  the  Australian  Standards  Board,  International 
Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board 
and  the  requirements  of  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  The  Group  is  a  for  profit  entity  for 
financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. 

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded 
would  result  in  a  financial  report  containing  relevant  and  reliable  information  about 
transactions, events and conditions.  Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards 
ensures that the financial statements and notes  also comply with International Financial 
Reporting  Standards.    Material  accounting  policies  adopted  in  the  preparation  of  this 
financial report are presented below and have been consistently applied unless otherwise 
stated. 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical costs, 
except for the revaluation of certain non-current assets and financial instruments. Cost is 
based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are 
presented in Australian dollars, unless otherwise stated. 

The  financial  statements  are  presented  in  Australian  dollars  which  is  Artemis  Resources 
Limited’s functional and presentation currency. 

These financial statements were authorised for issue on 29 September 2023.  

Basis of Consolidation 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  incorporate  the  financial  statements  of  the 
Company and entities controlled by the Company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved 
when the Company: 

•  has power over the investee; 
• 

is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement in with the investee; 
and  

•  has the ability to its power to affect its returns. 

The Company reassess whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances 
indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements listed above. 

When the Company has less than a majority of the voting rights if an investee, it has the 
power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability 
to  direct  the  relevant  activities  of  the  investee  unilaterally.  The  Company  considers  all 
relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Company’s voting rights 
are sufficient to give it power, including: 

• 

the size of the Company’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion 
of holdings of the other vote holders; 

Artemis Resources Limited Annual Financial Report 2023 

41 

 
 
 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

•  potential voting rights held by the Company, other vote holders or other  parties; 

rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and  

•  any  additional  facts  and  circumstances  that  indicate  that  the  Company  has,  or 
does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that 
decisions  need  to  be  made,  including  voting  patterns  at  previous  shareholder 
meetings. 

Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary 
and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and 
expenses  of  a  subsidiary  acquired  or  disposed  of  during  the  year  are  included  in  the 
consolidated  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  comprehensive  income  from  the  date  the 
Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. 

Changes in the Group’s ownership interest in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group 
losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying 
amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect 
the changes in their relative interests in subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount 
paid  by  which  the  non-controlling  interests  are  adjusted,  and  the  fair  value  of  the 
consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to the owners 
of the Company. 

When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss 
and is calculated as the difference between: 

• 

• 

The aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any 
retained interest; and 
The  previous  carrying  amount  of  the  assets  (including  goodwill),  and  liabilities  of  the 
subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. 

All  amounts  previously  recognised  in  other  comprehensive  income  in  relation  to  that 
subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or 
liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred to another category 
of equity as specified/permitted by the applicable AASBs). The fair value of any investment 
retained  in  the  former  subsidiary  at  the  date  when  control  is  lost  is  regarded  as  the  fair 
value on initial recognition for subsequent accounting under AASB 9, when applicable, the 
cost on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or a joint venture. 

Business Combinations 

Business  combinations  occur  where  an  acquirer  obtains  control  over  one  or  more 
businesses. 

A business combination is accounted for by applying the acquisition method, unless it is a 
combination  involving  entities  or  businesses  under  common  control.    The  business 
combination will be accounted for from the date that control is attained, whereby the fair 
value  of  the  identifiable  assets  acquired,  and  liabilities  (including  contingent  liabilities) 
assumed is recognised (subject to certain limited exemptions).  

When measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination, any asset or 
included.  
liability  resulting  from  a  contingent  consideration  arrangement 
Subsequent  to  initial  recognition,  contingent  consideration  classified  as  equity  is  not 
remeasured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity.  

is  also 

Artemis Resources Limited Annual Financial Report 2023

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Contingent  consideration  classified  as  an  asset  or  liability  is  remeasured  each  reporting 
period to fair value, recognising any change to fair value in profit or loss, unless the change 
in value can be identified as existing at acquisition date. 

All transaction costs incurred in relation to the business combination are expensed to the 
consolidated statement of comprehensive income. 

The  acquisition  of  a  business  may  result  in  the  recognition  of  goodwill  or  a  gain  from  a 
bargain purchase. 

Right-of-use assets 

The Group recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the 
date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, 
less  any  accumulated  depreciation  and  impairment  losses,  and  adjusted  for  any 
remeasurement  of  lease  liabilities.  The  cost  of  right-of-use  assets  includes  the  amount  of 
lease  liabilities  recognised,  initial  direct  costs  incurred,  and  lease  payments  made  at  or 
before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Group is 
reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, 
the recognised right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter 
of its estimated useful life and the lease term. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment. 

Lease liabilities 

At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities measured 
at  the  present  value  of  lease  payments  to  be  made  over  the  lease  term.  The  lease 
payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease 
incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and 
amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also 
include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the 
Group  and  payments  of  penalties  for  terminating  a  lease,  if  the  lease  term  reflects  the 
Group exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend 
on  an  index  or  a  rate  are  recognised  as  expense  in  the  period  on  which  the  event  or 
condition  that  triggers  the  payment  occurs.  In  calculating  the  present  value  of  lease 
payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement 
date  if  the  interest  rate  implicit  in  the  lease  is  not  readily  determinable.  After  the 
commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion 
of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of 
lease  liabilities  is  remeasured  if  there  is  a  modification,  a  change  in  the  lease  term,  a 
change  in  the  in-substance  fixed  lease  payments  or  a  change  in  the  assessment  to 
purchase the underlying asset. 

Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets 

The  Group  applies  the  short-term  lease  recognition  exemption  to  its  short-term  leases  of 
machinery and equipment (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less 
from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the 
lease  of  low-value  assets  recognition  exemption  to  leases  of  office  equipment  that  are 
considered  of  low  value  (i.e.,  below  $5,000).  Lease  payments  on  short-term  leases  and 
leases of low-value assets are recognised as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease 
term.

1.    STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Adoption of New a Revised Accounting Standards or Interpretations 

In the year ended 30 June 2023, the Directors have reviewed all of the new and revised 
Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are relevant to the Company and 
effective  for  the  current  reporting  period.  As  a  result  of  this  review,  the  Directors  have 
determined  that  there  is  no  material  impact  of  the  new  and  revised  Standards  and 
Interpretations  on  the  Group  and  therefore,  no  material  change  is  necessary  to  Group 
accounting policies.  

Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are yet to be 
mandatory have not been early adopted. 

The Directors have also reviewed all the new and revised Standards and Interpretations in 
issue  not  yet  adopted  for  the  year  ended  30  June  2023.    As  a  result  of  this  review  the 
Directors  have  determined  that  there  is  no  material  impact  of  the  Standards  and 
Interpretations in issue not yet adopted by the Company. 

Going Concern 

For the year ended 30 June 2023, the Group recorded a loss of $16,923,543 (2022: Loss of 
$7,529,345)  and  had  net  cash  outflows  from  operating  activities  of  $2,871,989  (2022: 
$3,864,822) and has a net working capital surplus of $3,925,073 as at 30 June 2023 (2022:  
$9,657,328). 

The Directors believe that it is reasonably foreseeable that the Company and Group will 
continue as a going concern and that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis 
in the preparation of the financial report after consideration of the following factors:  

• 

• 
• 

• 

• 

The Group has cash at bank of $1,703,016 and net assets of $45,365,058 as at 30 June 
2023; 
The Group has approximately $3.75 million in liquid investments. 
The Company has raised approximately $2.5 million, before costs, in new capital during 
the  year  and  Directors  are  of  the  view  that  should  the  Company  require  additional 
capital it has the ability to raise further capital to enable the Group to meet scheduled 
exploration expenditure requirements and future plans on the development assets; 
The  ability  of  the  Group  to  scale  back  certain  parts  of  their  activities  that  are  non-
essential so as to conserve cash; and 
The  Group  retains  the  ability,  if  required,  to  wholly  or  in  part  dispose  of  interests  in 
mineral exploration and development assets, and liquid investments.  

However,  should  the  Company  be  unable  to  raise  capital  in  a  sufficiently  timely  basis 
and/or reduce expenditure to the extent required there may exist a material uncertainty 
which may cast significant doubt as to whether the Company and Group will continue as 
a going concern and therefore whether they will realise their assets and extinguish their 
liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

Income taxes 

The  income  tax  expense  (benefit)  for  the  year  comprises  current  income  tax  expense 
(income) and deferred tax expense (income).  Current income tax expense charged to 
the  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income  is  the  tax  payable  on 
taxable  income  calculated  using  applicable  income  tax  rates  enacted,  or  substantially 
enacted, as at reporting date.  Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the 
amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. 

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax 
liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses.  Current and deferred income 
tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss 
when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.  Deferred tax 
assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the 
tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements.  
Deferred  tax  assets  also  result  where  amounts  have  been  fully  expensed  but  future  tax 
deductions  are  available.    No  deferred  income  tax  will  be  recognised  from  the  initial 
recognition  of  an  asset  or  liability,  excluding  a  business  combination,  where  there  is  no 
effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply 
to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted 
or substantively enacted at reporting date.  Their measurement also reflects the manner in 
which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset 
or liability.  Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are 
recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available 
against  which  the  benefits  of  the  deferred  tax  asset  can  be  utilised.    Where  temporary 
differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint 
ventures,  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  not  recognised  where  the  timing  of  the 
reversal  of  the  temporary  difference  can  be  controlled  and  it  is  not  probable  that  the 
reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. 

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists 
and  it  is  intended  that  net  settlement  or  simultaneous  realisation  and  settlement  of  the 
respective asset and liability will occur.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where 
a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to 
income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or 
different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation 
and  settlement  of  the  respective  asset  and  liability  will  occur  in  future  periods  in  which 
significant  amounts  of  deferred  tax  assets  or  liabilities  are  expected  to  be  recovered  or 
settled.

Exploration and evaluation costs 

Exploration and evaluation expenditures in relation to each separate area of interest are 
recognised as an exploration and evaluation asset in the year in which they are incurred 
where the following conditions are satisfied: 

the rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and 

• 
•  at least one of the following conditions is also met: 

  the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through 
successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by 
its sale; or 

  exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the balance 
date reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or 
otherwise  of  economically  recoverable  reserves,  and  active  and  significant 
operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing. 

Exploration and evaluation assets are initially measured at cost and include acquisition of 
rights  to  explore,  studies,  exploratory  drilling,  trenching  and  sampling  and  associated 
activities and an allocation of depreciation and  amortised of assets  used in exploration 
and  evaluation  activities.  General  and  administrative  costs  are  only  included  in  the 
measurement  of  exploration  and  evaluation  costs  where  they  are  related  directly  to 
operational activities in a particular area of interest. 

Exploration  and  evaluation  assets  are  assessed  for 
impairment  when  facts  and 
circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset 
may  exceed  its  recoverable  amount.  The  recoverable  amount  of  the  exploration  and 
evaluation asset (for the cash generating unit(s) to which it has been allocated being no 
larger  than  the  relevant  area  of  interest)  is  estimated  to  determine  the  extent  of  the 
impairment  loss  (if  any).  Where  an  impairment  loss  subsequently  reverses,  the  carrying 
amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate  of its recoverable amount, but 
only  to  the  extent  that  the  increased  carrying  amount  does  not  exceed  the  carrying 
amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for 
the asset in previous years. 

Where a decision has been made to proceed with development in respect of a particular 
area of interest, the relevant exploration and evaluation asset is tested for impairment and 
the balance is then reclassified to development. 

In determining the costs of site restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and 
extent  of  the  restoration  due  to  community  expectations  and  future  legislation.  
Accordingly,  the  costs  have  been  determined  on  the  basis  that  the  restoration  will  be 
completed within one year of abandoning the site.

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Financial Instruments 

Recognition and initial measurement 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party 
to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. 

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the 
financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards 
are transferred. 

A  financial  liability  is  derecognised  when  it  is  extinguished,  discharged,  cancelled  or 
expires. 

Classification and subsequent measurement 

All financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where 
applicable).  For  the  purpose  of  subsequent  measurement,  all  the  financial  assets,  are 
classified as amortised cost.  

All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are 
presented  within  finance  costs,  finance  income  or  other  financial  items,  except  for 
impairment of other receivables which is presented within other expenses. 

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss 

(i) 
Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss (‘FVTPL’) are carried at fair 
value and any subsequent gains or losses are recognised in the Statement of Profit or 
Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.   

(ii)       Financial assets at amortised cost 
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions 
(and are not designated as FVTPL): 

• 

• 

they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets 
to collect its contractual cash flows 
the  contractual  terms  of  the  financial  assets  give  rise  to  cash  flows  that  are  solely 
payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. 

After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest 
method. 

Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group’s cash and 
cash equivalents, and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments. 

Other receivables  

The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for other receivables as well 
as contract assets and records the loss allowance as lifetime expected credit losses. These 
are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the potential for default 
at  any  point  during  the life  of  the  financial  instrument.  In  calculating,  the  Group  uses  its 
historical experience, external indicators and forward-looking information to calculate the 
expected credit losses using a provision matrix. 

The  Group  assess  impairment  of  other  receivables  on  a  collective  basis  as  they  possess 
shared credit risk characteristics they have been grouped based on the days past due.

Classification and measurement of financial liabilities 

The  Group’s  financial  liabilities  include  borrowings,  trade  and  other  payables  and 
derivative financial instruments. 

Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for 
transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit 
or loss. 

Subsequently,  financial  liabilities  are  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective 
interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which 
are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other 
than  derivative  financial  instruments  that  are  designated  and  effective  as  hedging 
instruments). 

All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument’s fair value that 
are reported in profit or loss are included within finance costs or finance income. 

Plant and equipment 

Each class of plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value as indicated less, where 
applicable, any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Plant and equipment 
are measured on the cost basis. 

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate 
asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated 
with the item will flow to the company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. 
All  other  repairs  and  maintenance  are  charged  to  the  income  statement  during  the 
financial period in which they are incurred. 

Derecognition and disposal 

An item of plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no further future 
economic  benefits  are  expected  from  its  use  or  disposal.  Any  gain  or  loss  arising  on 
derecognition  of  the  asset  (calculated  as  the  difference  between  the  net  disposal 
proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in profit or loss in the year the 
asset is derecognised. 

Depreciation 

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets 
as follows: 

Plant and Equipment – ranging from 2 to 20 years 

The  assets'  residual  values,  useful  lives  and  amortisation  methods  are  reviewed,  and 
adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end. 

Impairment 

The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment at each balance 
in 
date,  with 
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.    STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

The recoverable amount of plant and equipment is the higher of fair value less costs to sell 
and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted 
to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments 
of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. 

For  an  asset  that  does  not  generate  largely  independent  cash  inflows,  recoverable 
amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs, unless the 
asset's value in use can be estimated to approximate fair value. 

An impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds 
its estimated recoverable amount. The asset or cash-generating unit is then written down 
to its recoverable amount. 

For plant and equipment, impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit or 
loss and other comprehensive income in the cost of sales line item.  

Intangible assets 

Intangible assets acquired separately are recorded at cost less accumulated amortisation 
and impairment. Amortisation is charged on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful 
lives. The estimated  useful life and amortisation  method is reviewed at the end  of each 
annual  reporting  period,  with  any  changes  in  these  accounting  estimates  being 
accounted for on a prospective basis. 

Impairment of intangible assets other than goodwill 

The Group assesses at each balance date whether there is an indication that an asset may 
be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset 
is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. An asset’s 
recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is 
determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that 
are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value 
in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for 
impairment  as  part  of  the  cash-generating  unit  to  which  it  belongs.  When  the  carrying 
amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or 
cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. 

Development expenditure 

Development expenditures represent the accumulation of all exploration, evaluation and 
other expenditure incurred in respect of areas of interest in which mining is in the process 
of  commencing.  When 
the 
commencement  of production, such expenditure is carried forward as part of the mine 
property  only  when  substantial  future  economic  benefits  are  thereby  established, 
otherwise such expenditure is classified as part of the cost of production.

1.    STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Restoration and rehabilitation 

A  provision  for  restoration  and  rehabilitation  is  recognised  when  there  is  a  present 
obligation as a result of development activities undertaken, it is probable that an outflow 
of  economic  benefits  will  be  required  to  settle  the  obligation,  and  the  amount  of  the 
provision can be measured reliably. The estimated future obligations include the costs of 
abandoning sites, removing facilities and restoring the affected areas.  

The  provision  for  future  restoration  costs  is  the  best  estimate  of  the  present  value  of  the 
expenditure  required  to  settle  the  restoration  obligation  at  the  balance  date.  Future 
restoration costs are reviewed annually and any changes in the estimate are reflected in 
the present value of the restoration provision at each balance date. 

The initial estimate of the restoration and rehabilitation provision is capitalised into the cost 
of  the  related  asset  and  amortised  on  the  same  basis  as  the  related  asset,  unless  the 
present obligation arises from the production of inventory in the period, in which case the 
amount is included in the cost of production for the period. Changes in the estimate of the 
provision for restoration  and rehabilitation are treated in the same manner, except  that 
the unwinding of the effect of discounting on the provision is recognised as a finance cost 
rather than being capitalised into the cost of the related asset. 

Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other 
short-term highly liquid investments with  original maturities  of 3 months  or less, and bank 
overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on 
the consolidated statement of financial position. 

Trade and other payables 

Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities 
for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that 
are  unpaid  and  arise  when  the  Group  becomes  obliged  to  make  future  payments  in 
respect  of  the  purchase  of  these  goods  and  services.    Trade  and  other  payables  are 
presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months. 

Employee leave benefits 

Wages, salaries, annual leave and sick leave 

Liabilities  accruing  to  employees  in  respect  of  wages  and  salaries,  annual  leave,  long 
service leave and sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the balance date 
are  recognised  in  other  payables  in  respect  of  employees’  services  up  to  the  balance 
date.  They  are  measured  at  the  amounts  expected  to  be  paid  when  the  liabilities  are 
settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken 
and are measured at the rates paid or payable.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Liabilities  accruing  to  employees  in  respect  of  wages  and  salaries,  annual  leave,  long 
service leave, and sick leave not expected to be settled within 12 months of the balance 
date are recognised in non-current other payables in respect of employees’ services up 
to  the  balance  date.  They  are  measured  as  the  present  value  of  the  estimated  future 
outflows to be made by the Group. 

Provisions 

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) 
as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic 
benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of 
the amount of the obligation.  Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. 

Provisions  are  measured  at  the  present  value  or  management’s  best  estimate  of  the 
expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. If 
the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current 
pre-tax  rate  that  reflects  the  risks  specific  to  the  liability.  When  discounting  is  used,  the 
increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as an interest expense. 

Revenue recognition 

Interest  revenue  is  recognised  using  the  effective  interest  method.    It  includes  the 
amortisation of any discount or premium. 

Borrowing costs 

Borrowing  costs  are  recognised  as  an  expense  in  the  period  in  which  they  are  incurred 
except  borrowing  costs  that  are  directly  attributable  to  the  acquisition,  construction  or 
production  of  an  asset  that  necessarily  takes  a  substantial  period  to  get  ready  for  its 
intended use or sale.  In this case the borrowing costs are capitalised as part of the cost of 
such a qualifying asset. 

The  amount  of  borrowing  costs  relating  to  funds  borrowed  generally  and  used  for  the 
acquisition of qualifying assets has been determined by applying a capitalisation rate to 
the expenditures on those assets.  The capitalisation rate comprises the weighted average 
of borrowing costs incurred during the period. 

Equity settled compensation 

Share-based  payments  to  employees  are  measured  at  the  fair  value  of  the  instruments 
issued and amortised over the vesting periods.  Share-based payments to non-employees 
are measured at the fair value of goods or services received or the fair value of the equity 
instruments  issued,  if  it  is  determined  the  fair  value  of  the  goods  or  services  cannot  be 
reliably measured and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received.  The 
corresponding  amount  is  recorded  to  the  option  reserve.    The  fair  value  of  options  is 
determined  using  the  Black-Scholes  pricing  model.    The  number  of  shares  and  options 
expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting period such that 
the amount recognised  for services received as  consideration for the equity instruments 
granted is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

Goods and services tax (GST) 

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where 
the  amount  of  GST  incurred  is  not  recoverable  from  the  Australian  Tax  Office.    In  these 
circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part 
of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the consolidated statement  of 
financial position are shown inclusive of GST.  Cash flows are presented in the consolidated 
statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and 
financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. 

Parent entity disclosures 

The  financial  information  for  the  parent  entity,  Artemis  Resources  Limited,  has  been 
prepared on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements.  

Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale 

Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount 
will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. 
This condition is regarded as met only when the asset (or disposal group) is available for 
immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary 
for sales for such asset (or disposal groups) and the sale is highly probable. Management 
must be committed to the sale, which should be expected to qualify for recognition as a 
complete sale within one year from the date of classification. 

When the Group is committed to a sale plan involving loss of control of a subsidiary, all of 
the assets and liabilities of that subsidiary are classified as held for sale when the criteria 
described  above  are  met,  regardless  of  whether  the  Group  will  retain  a  non-controlling 
interest in it former subsidiary, after the sale. 

Leases 

        The group’s leasing activities and how these are accounted for: 

The group leases various offices with varying lengths from 1 to 3 years, some with extension 
options. 

Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Group allocates the 
consideration  in  the  contract  to  the  lease  and  non-lease  components  based  on  their 
relative stand-alone prices. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain 
a wide range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any 
covenants other than the security interests in the leased assets. Leased assets may not be 
used as security for borrowing purposes. 

Leases are recognised as a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability at the date at 
which the leased asset is available for use by the Group. 

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. 
Lease liabilities include the net present value of fixed payments, less any lease incentives 
receivable. 

Artemis Resources Limited Annual Financial Report 2023 

52 

 
 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Leases (continued) 

Lease  payments  to  be  made  under  reasonably  certain  extension  options  are  also 
included in the measurement of the liability. 

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate 
cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in  the Group, the 
lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would 
have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-
of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions. 

To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Group: 

•  where possible, uses recent third-party financing received by the individual lessee as a 
starting  point,  adjusted  to  reflect  changes  in  financing  conditions  since  third  party 
financing was received; 
•  uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk 
for leases held by the Group; which does not have recent third-party financing; and 
•  makes adjustments specific to the lease, e.g. term, country, currency and security. 

The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on 
an index or rate, which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When 
adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take effect, the lease liability is 
reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset. 

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is 
charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate 
of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. 

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following: 

the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability; 

• 
•  any  lease  payments  made  at  or  before  the  commencement  date  less  any  lease 

incentives received; 

•  any initial direct costs; and 
• 

restoration costs. 

Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and 
the  lease  term  on  a  straight-line  basis.  If  the  Group  is  reasonably  certain  to  exercise  a 
purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset’s useful 
life.  

Payments associated with short-term leases are recognised on a straight-line basis as an 
expense  in  profit  or  loss  (unless  capitalised  as  a  component  of  Plant  Construction  in 
Progress). Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less.  

Use of estimates and judgements 

The  preparation  of  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements, 
estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  application  of  accounting  policies  and  the 
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.   

Artemis Resources Limited Annual Financial Report 2023 

53 

 
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1.  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

Use of estimates and judgements (continued) 

Actual results may differ from these estimates.  Estimates and underlying assumptions are 
reviewed on an ongoing basis.  Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the 
period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected. 

Exploration and evaluation, and development expenditure carried forward 

The  Group  capitalises  expenditure 
relating  to  exploration  and  evaluation,  and 
development, where it is considered likely to be recoverable or where the activities have 
not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves.  
While there are certain areas of interest from which no reserves have been determined, 
the Directors are of the continued belief that such expenditure should not be written off 
since feasibility studies in such areas have not yet concluded. 

The  recoverability  of  the  carrying  amount  of  mine  development  expenditure  carried 
forward has been reviewed by the Directors.  In conducting the review, the recoverable 
amount has been assessed by reference to the higher of “fair value less costs of disposal” 
and “value in use”.  In determining value in use, future cash flows are based on:  

•  Estimates  of  ore  reserves  and  mineral  resources  for  which  there  is  a  high  degree  of 

confidence of economic extraction; 

•  Estimated production and sales levels; 

•  Estimate future commodity prices; 

•  Future costs of production; 

•  Future capital expenditure; and/or 

•  Future exchange rates. 

Variations  to  expected  future  cash  flows,  and  timing  thereof,  could  result  in  significant 
changes to the impairment test results, which in turn could impact future financial results. 

Share-based payment transactions 

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference 
to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair 
value  is  determined  by  an  external  valuer  using  a  Black-Scholes  model,  using  the 
assumptions detailed in Note 24. 

Fair value of financial instruments 

Management uses valuation techniques to determine the fair value of financial instruments 
(where  active  market  quotes  are  not  available)  and  non-financial  assets.  This  involves 
developing  estimates  and  assumptions  consistent  with  how  market  participants  would 
price the instrument. 

Provision for restoration and rehabilitation 

The  provision  for  restoration  and  rehabilitation  has  been  estimated  based  on  quotes 
provided by third parties. The provision represents the best estimate of the present value of 
the expenditure required to settle the restoration obligation at the reporting date.

2.  SEGMENT INFORMATION  

AASB 8 Operating Segments requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of 
internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Chief 
Operating Decision Maker in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its 
performance. 

The  Group’s  operating  segments  have  been  determined  with  reference  to  the  monthly 
management accounts used by the Chief Operating Decision Maker to make decisions 
regarding the Group’s operations and allocation of working capital. Due to the size and 
nature of the Group, the Board as a whole has been determined as the Chief Operating 
Decision Maker. 

a. Description of segments 

The  Board  has  determined  that  the  Group  has  two  reportable  segments,  being  mineral 
exploration activities and development expenditure. The Board monitors the Group based 
on actual versus budgeted expenditure incurred by area of interest.  

The  internal  reporting  framework  is  the  most  relevant  to  assist  the  Board  with  making 
decisions regard the Group and its ongoing exploration activities.

 Potential  deferred  tax  assets  attributable  to  tax  losses  and  exploration  expenditure 
carried forward have not been brought to account at 30 June 2023 because the directors 
do not believe it is appropriate to regard realisation of the deferred tax assets as probable 
at this point in time. These benefits will only be obtained if: 

• 

the Group derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to 
enable the benefit from the deductions for the loss and exploration expenditure to be 
realised; 
• 
the Group continues to comply with conditions for deductibility imposed by law; and 
•  no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the company in realising the benefit from 

the deductions for the loss and exploration expenditure. 

The applicable tax rate is the national tax rate in Australia for companies, which is 30% at 
the reporting date.

¹ In the 2022 financial year the Company sold its 70% joint venture interest in the Munni 
Munni  platinum  group  metals  project  to  Alien  Metals  Limited  (LON:UFO)  (Alien)  a 
company incorporated in the United Kingdom and listed on the London Stock Exchange 
(LSE), for 358,617,818 shares in UFO at GBP0.08 per share for an amount of $4,650,000 and 
$250,000 in cash. The sale realised a profit of $2,263,931. The shares were then sold in the 
year ended 30 June 2023 realising a loss of $2,294,797. 

In  addition,  in  the  2022  financial  year  the  Company  sold  non-core  tenements  to 
GreenTech Metals Limited (ASX:GRE) for 6,750,000 shares in GRE at $0.20 for an amount of 
$1,350,000, and recovery of expenditure in the amount of $250,000. The shares had a value 
as at 30 June 2023 of $3,746,250. 

2The  Group  has  rationalised  the  tenement/project  portfolio  during  the  year  and  has 
impaired  the  carrying  value  of  those  tenements/projects  disposed  of  and  impaired  the 
carrying value of projects in excess of that deemed recoverable by the Directors. 

Exploration expenditure has been carried forward as that expenditure is expected to be 
recouped through successful development and exploration of the areas of interest.

1  The  Company  announced  a  resource  upgrade  at  the  Greater  Carlow  Project  in 
October  2022  (See  ASX  Announcement  13  October  2022  “High-grade  Gold  Copper 
Cobalt Inferred Mineral Resource Lays Foundation for a robust Greater Carlow Project”.) 

While the resource, 704,000 oz Au Eq at 2.5 g/t Au Eq, was encouraging, the resource 
does not at present fully support the value in use model underlying the carrying value of 
the  Fox  Radio  Hill  Processing  Plant  (approximately  $27.5  million  which  includes  a 
rehabilitation provision of $5.7 million) as at 30 June 2023. This represents an indicator of 
impairment  and  as  a  consequence  the  Company  is  required  under  accounting 
standards  to  test  for  impairment  by  comparing  its  recoverable  value  to  its’  carrying 
value. 

The  Company  determined  the  recoverable  value  based  on  fair  value  less  costs  of 
disposal. The estimate of fair value is a level 3 on the fair value hierarchy. Management 
engaged a third party to value the plant as at 30 June 2023, the expert valued the plant 
at  $24.923  million  on  a  replacement  cost  basis.  Management  adjusted  the  expert’s 
valuation to reflect the most likely use of the plant and what management believe would 
be  achieved  in  a  market  scenario,  and  determined  the  recoverable  value  is 
approximately  $14.95  million.  Accordingly,  the  Company  has  booked  an  impairment 
provision of $12,969,852 for the year. 

2 The increase in the provision in 2022 and 2023 results from a revision in the discount rate 
used in the calculation  of the present value of the future rehabilitation cost estimates 
and an adjustment to reflect a higher inflation rate.

19. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES 

The  Board  of  Directors  takes  responsibility  for  managing  financial  risk  exposures  of  the 
Group.  The Board monitors the Group’s financial risk management policies and exposures 
and approves financial transactions.  It also reviews the effectiveness of internal controls 
relating  to  commodity  price  risk,  counterparty  credit  risk,  currency  risk,  liquidity  risk  and 
interest rate risk.  The Board meets approximately bi-monthly at which these matters are 
reviewed. 

The  Board’s  overall  risk  management  strategy  seeks  to  assist  the  Group  in  meeting  its 
financial targets, while minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance.  Its 
review  includes  the  use  of  hedging  derivative  instruments,  credit  risk  policies  and  future 
cash flow requirements. 

The  Company’s  principal  financial  instruments  comprise  cash,  short  term  deposits  and 
securities in Australian or International listed companies.  The main purpose of the financial 
instruments is to earn the maximum amount of interest at a low risk to the company.  The 
Company also has other financial instruments such as trade debtors and creditors which 
arise directly from its operations.  

The main risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, credit 
risk, foreign exchange risk, commodity risk and liquidity risk. The Board reviews and agrees 
policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below:

19.  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

(i) Interest Rate Risk 

The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk is the risk that a financial instrument’s value 
will  fluctuate  as  a  result  of  changes  in  market  interest  rates  and  the  effective  weighted 
average interest rate for each class of financial assets and financial liabilities.   

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest 
rates on the following financial assets and liabilities:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

19.   FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) 

1  Cash  and  cash  equivalents  are  denominated  in  both  AUD  and  GBP.  The  weighted 
average interest rate for the year ended 30 June 2023 was 0.00% (2022: 0.00%). No other 
financial assets or liabilities are interest bearing. 
2 Trade and other receivables are denominated in AUD and are not interest bearing. 
3 Trade and other payables at balance date are denominated mainly in AUD and are not 
interest bearing.
4 Financial liabilities are lease liabilities with an implicit interest rate. 
5 Other financial assets are designated in AUD and are non-interest bearing. 

(ii) Credit Risk 

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counter-party will default on its contractual obligations 
resulting in financial loss to the Company.  The Company has adopted the policy of only 
dealing  with  credit  worthy  counterparties  and  obtaining  sufficient  collateral  or  other 
security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. 

The Company does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty 
or  any  group  of  counterparties  having  similar  characteristics.    The  carrying  amount  of 
financial  assets  recorded  in  the  financial  statements,  net  of  any  provisions  for  losses, 
represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk. 

(iii) Foreign Exchange Risk 

The Company had the following British Pound and United States Dollar denominated assets 
and liabilities at year end.

(v) Liquidity Risk  

The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility 
through  the  use  of  bank  loans,  convertible  notes  and  finance  leases.    Cash  flows  from 
financial assets reflect management’s expectation as to the timing of realisation.  Actual 
timing may therefore differ from that disclosed.  The timing of cash flows presented in the 
table to settle financial liabilities reflects the earliest contractual settlement dates and does 
not reflect management’s expectations that banking facilities will roll forward. 

The  following  tables  below  reflect  an  undiscounted  contractual  maturity  analysis  for 
financial liabilities.

Goods  or  services  received  or  acquired  in  a  share-based  payment  transaction  are 
recognised as an increase in equity if the goods or services were received in an equity-
settled share-based payment transaction or as a liability if the goods and services were 
acquired in a cash settled share-based payment transaction. 

For  equity-settled  share-based  transactions,  goods  or  services  received  are  measured 
directly at the fair value of the goods or services received provided this can be estimated 
reliably.    If  a  reliable  estimate  cannot  be  made  the  value  of  the  goods  or  services  is 
determined indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instrument granted. 

Transactions  with  employees  and  others  providing  similar  services  are  measured  by 
reference to the fair value at grant date of the equity instrument granted.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT  
To the Members of Artemis Resources Limited 

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report 

Qualified Opinion  

We have audited the financial report of Artemis Resources Limited (“the Company”) and its controlled entities 
(“the  Group”),  which  comprises  the  consolidated  statement  of  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2023,  the 
consolidated  statement  of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income,  the  consolidated  statement  of 
changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the 
financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.  

In  our  opinion,  except  for  the  possible  effects  of  the  matter  described  in  the  Basis  for  Qualified  Opinion 
section of our report, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations 
Act 2001, including:  

(a)  giving  a  true  and  fair  view  of  the  Group’s  financial  position  as  at  30  June  2023  and  of  its  financial 

performance for the year then ended; and  

(b)  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.  

Basis for Qualified Opinion 

As  disclosed  in  Note  13  to  the  financial  report,  the  Group  identified  indicators  of  impairment  on  its 
development expenditure asset, and impaired the development expenditure asset to its recoverable 
value which was estimated using fair value less costs of disposal. As at the date of approval of the 
financial report, we have been unable to obtain sufficient, appropriate audit evidence in relation to the 
fair value less costs of disposal for the development expenditure asset. Had we been able to obtain 
sufficient, appropriate evidence in relation to the fair value less costs of disposal, matters might have 
come to our attention indicating that adjustments might have been necessary to the carrying value of 
the development expenditure asset in the financial report. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those 
standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section 
of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements 
of  the  Corporations  Act  2001  and  the  ethical  requirements  of  the  Accounting  Professional  and  Ethical 
Standards  Board’s  APES  110  Code  of  Ethics  for  Professional  Accountants  (including  Independence 
Standards) (“the Code”) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled 
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.  

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our 
qualified opinion.  

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern  

We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty exists that 
may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified 
in respect of this matter. 

78 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Key Audit Matters  

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our 
audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit 
of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate 
opinion on these matters. Fridge 

In  addition  to  the  matters  described  in  the  Material  Uncertainty  Related  to  Going  Concern  and  Basis  for 
Qualified Opinion sections, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to 
be communicated in our report. 

Key Audit Matter 

How  our  audit  addressed  the  key  audit 
matter 

Carrying value of Development Expenditure 
Refer to Note 13 

The  Group  has  a  development  expenditure  asset  of 
$14,950,070 in relation to construction of the Radio Hill 
Gold  Recovery  Circuit  Processing  Facility  for  the 
Carlow  Castle  Project  which  represents  a  significant 
asset of the Group.

An

The impairment assessment involved a comparison of 
the 
the  development 
expenditure  asset

recoverable  amount  was  determined  using  fair  value 
less costs of disposal. Based on this assessment, an 
impairment expense of $12,969,852 was recognised.

The evaluation of recoverable amount is considered a 
key  audit  matter  as  it  was  based  on  the  cash

Information Other than the Financial Report and Auditor’s Report Thereon 

The  directors  are  responsible  for  the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises  the  information 
included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2023, but does not include the financial 
report and our auditor’s report thereon.  

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express 
any form of assurance conclusion thereon.  

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in 
doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report, or our 
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.  

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other 
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.  

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report  

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and 
fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such 
internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that 
gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In  preparing  the  financial  report,  the  directors  are  responsible  for  assessing  the  ability  of  the  Group  to 
continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going 
concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, 
or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from 
material  misstatement,  whether  due  to  fraud  or  error,  and  to  issue  an  auditor’s  report  that  includes  our 
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted 
in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. 
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, 
they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this 
financial report. 

80 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement 
and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:  

− 

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or 
error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is 
sufficient  and  appropriate  to  provide  a  basis  for  our  opinion.  The  risk  of  not  detecting  a  material 
misstatement  resulting  from  fraud  is  higher  than  for  one  resulting  from  error,  as  fraud  may  involve 
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.  
−  Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that 
are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the 
effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.  
Evaluate  the  appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of  accounting 
estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.  

− 

−  Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, 
based  on  the  audit  evidence  obtained,  whether  a  material  uncertainty  exists  related  to  events  or 
conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we 
conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to 
the  related  disclosures  in  the  financial  report  or,  if  such  disclosures  are  inadequate,  to  modify  our 
opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. 
However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.  
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, 
and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that 
achieves fair presentation.  

− 

We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the 
audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify 
during our audit.  

We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements 
regarding  independence,  and  to  communicate  with  them  all  relationships  and  other  matters  that  may 
reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats 
or safeguards applied.  

From  the  matters  communicated  with  the  directors,  we  determine  those  matters  that  were  of  most 
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. 
We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about 
the  matter  or  when,  in  extremely  rare  circumstances,  we  determine  that  a  matter  should  not  be 
communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected 
to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
