Diamond drill rig onsite and drilling commenced at the Euro Project Up to 2000m of diamond drilling to be completed in this program

Drilling will test extensions of known mineralisation nearby substantial historical results including:

  • NR017: 17m @ 1.2g/t from 20m
  • NR018: 15m @ 2.3 g/t (including 7m @ 3.4g/t) from 15m
  • MBRB021A: 9m @ 1.2 (including 2m @11.4) from 0m (surface) Drilling will also improve geological understanding of this underexplored project area

useNews Item

Tempest Minerals Ltd (TEM) is pleased to announce that drilling has commenced at the Calais target which makes up part of the Company's Euro Project in the Yalgoo Region. The drilling will comprise up to 2000m of diamond drilling designed to test multiple targets and improve the geological model of the mineralised system where signifcant historical gold intercepts were previously recorded.

Euro Project

Background

The Euro Project is 176 km2 of 100% owned tenements within the exciting onlyexploration portfolio in the Yalgoo region of Western Australia which totals more than 900 km2 (>604 km2 granted and 311 km2 of pending). The Euro Project is an underexplored geological terrain located between several in development or producing operations including: Karara (Iron), Shine (Iron),

Mt Mulgine (Gold/Tungsten) and Rothsay (Gold/Copper).

Parts of the project were explored in the 1990s and early 2000s for gold and iron ore. Reconnaissance drilling in the north of the project area encountered signifcant gold mineralisation. Due to depressed metal prices,

usethey were not considered priority and not followed up with targeted drilling.

Drilling Commencement

Earlier in November, Tempest advised that the Company had received

regulatory approval 1 to drill and had elected drilling contractor DDSR 2 to complete the Tempest maiden drilling program at the Euro Project.

The diamond drill rig has arrived on-site and drilling has commenced.

personalThis current program will consist of up to 2000m of diamond drilling and will test and extend areas of known mineralisation and test new drill targets. Detailed observations will provide improved geological

understanding of these zones, which can be used to further the project. For

Geology

The Euro Project comprises primarily ultramafc, mafc and felsic stratigraphy with banded iron-formations (BIF), which forms part of the southern Yalgoo Greenstone belt. Both the mafc/ultramafc sequences - onlywhich include Rothsay and Mount Mulgine pits e.g. Black dog - and the BIF at Karara 3 are known to host gold

throughout the region.

The stratigraphy has been disrupted by several generations of deformation as evidenced by macro scale folding seen in geophysics and aerial imagery. The major folding system appears northwest-southeast with remnants of a later phase of refolding striking north-south and east-west. Multiple generations of shearing are also present, including offsets of fold axial planes. At least two of the shearing events appear relevant to the presence of gold mineralisation at the nearby Rothsay Mine as well as the Euro Project.

The current drilling program is primarily targeting gold within quartz veins and surrounding altered rocks, useor associated with massive sulphides, 4 which outcrop as weathered gossanous stock and boxwork.

Calais Target Legacy Drilling

While most of the greater Euro Project remains relatively unexplored, the northern segment of the project had reconnaissance surface geochemistry and RAB and RC drilling activity in the 1990s and early 2000s by

only

previous operators such as Normandy, Aztec, Gindalbie, Minjar, Karara and others. Some of these drill holes

encountered signifcant gold mineralisation, but were not thoroughly tested for continuity due to challenging

economic conditions.

Approximately 400 holes have been drilled into the northern section of the Euro Project. A selection of results

5 using a 0.5 gpt cutoff are listed below:

Many of these results remain open in multiple directions and at depth, and Tempest considers these to have signifcant potential for further discovery.

Next Steps

  • Drilling scheduled to continue with frst results due Q1 2022
  • Laboratory results from recent feldwork due imminently
  • Preparation for feldwork and drilling at the Meleya Project
