Titan Minerals CEO, Melanie Leighton, commented: “We are pleased to release the first of several batches of drill results from our 2024 Dynasty resource drilling campaign. With a substantial 3.1Moz gold and 22Moz silver resource already established at Dynasty, in 2025 we are targeting resource growth and conversion with our initial 10,000m campaign.”
“The result of 15.5m @ 3.0 g/t Au, 22.8 g/t Ag, including a higher-grade interval of 6.1m @ 4.0 g/t Au, 40.1 g/t Ag at Iguana main zone is a great result, both validating historical drilling and improving the grade of the resource in this area.”
“Drilling at Iguana east was undertaken in an area of Inferred Resources, supported by mapping and surface trenching, but never previously drilled. Pleasingly, Titan’s latest drilling has been successful in confirming the continuity of Iguana East mineralisation at depth, with review of results being undertaken before planning next drilling.”
“The drill rigs are now back in action at Dynasty, with the remaining 5,400m of resource drilling to be directed towards several lateral and depth extensional targets at Cerro Verde, in addition to three holes to test depth extensions below Iguana main zone.”
“Titan has a strong balance sheet with a $20M capital raise completed in late 2024 and strong conversion of 35c options providing further funding to facilitate resource and exploration drill programs, delivery of a Mineral Resource update and the commencement of Scoping Studies at Dynasty in 2025.”
Strong Financial Position
-
$20 million capital raise (December 2024)
-
Strong conversion of 35c options to additional funding
-
Funds are to go towards drilling, resource updates and advancing, and Scoping Study
