In this episode, we chat with Alastair Clayton, Executive Director at Artemis Resources, a gold and copper-focused resources company. They have major assets in the Pilbara area, at Paterson Central and Carlow Castle.

Alastair has a considerable amount of experience with raising capital for ASX and AIM-listed companies as well as extensive experience in evaluating and financing large-scale mining projects. He tells the story behind Artemis Resources and what they are looking to achieve in developing their gold assets in the Pilbara area of Western Australia.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• When Alastair and his colleagues picked up Artemis it was quite undervalued.
• Artemis had too many projects running, so they stripped the portfolio back from 10 to 2 projects.
• Rationalising the portfolio saved money and generated a lot of cash.
• They are focusing on the Carlow Castle copper/gold project and their Paterson Central project.
• Artemis still has an eye on developing new projects, at a later date.
• In the past, Pilbara was only about iron ore and liquified gas. Now, high-grade gold has been discovered there.
• They largely have heritage approval across their projects.
• For copper the supply side is shocking. So, demand for Artemis copper is sure to be high.
• All the access infrastructure is already in place.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Who would have thought it a gold-copper province in the Pilbara. ´

‘When would you ever get a chance to drill next to a virgin 20-million-ounce gold discovery in Western Australia? Now, you can.’

‘We own 100% of our project. We are the only Junior in the area to retain 100% of their land.’
