(TSX-V: ARTG) ("Artemis" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with National Bank Financial, as sole bookrunner and lead underwriter, together with RBC Capital Markets and Stifel GMP as co-lead underwriters, on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters (collectively, the "Underwriters") under which the Underwriters have agreed to buy on a bought deal basis 19,112,000 common shares (the "Common Shares"), at a price of $4.50 per Common Share (the “Offering Price”) for gross proceeds of $86,004,000 (the "Bought Deal Offering").

In addition to the Bought Deal Offering, certain management, insiders and shareholders will participate in a separate non-brokered offering, whereby up to 19,778,000 Common Shares will be issued, at the Offering Price, for gross proceeds of up to $89,001,000 (the “Non-Brokered Offering”, together with the Bought Deal Offering, the “Offering”).

The Common Shares offered under the Bought Deal Offering and the Non-Brokered Offering will be offered pursuant to two separate prospectus supplements (the “Supplements”) to the Company's base shelf prospectus dated January 12, 2021. The terms of the Bought Deal Offering and the Non-Brokered Offering will be described in the Supplements which will be filed with the securities regulators in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, other than Québec, and the Common Shares may also be offered by way of private placement in the United States.

The Offering is expected to close on October 14, 2022. The closing of the Offering is subject to certain conditions, including but not limited to, the Company receiving the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund permitting and development costs for the Company’s Blackwater Gold Project and for general corporate purposes.

The Common Shares offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.
