Artemis Gold Inc. provide an update regarding the impact of an uncontrolled wildfire late last week in the Cariboo Regional District in the immediate vicinity of the Company's Blackwater Mine. As previously announced, Artemis Gold took proactive measures to temporarily reduce the number of non-essential staff and contractors early last week and all company staff and contractors are safe and accounted for. The Blackwater Mine site infrastructure remains intact, including the construction camp, process plant area, construction fleet and contractors' fleets. Damage to property has been minimal. The Company is now focused on plans to ramp back up to normal construction activities in the short term,
subject to provincial regulation. Artemis Gold does not anticipate this incident will have a material impact on the Blackwater Mine construction schedule, and the Company continues to target first gold pour in H2 2024.
