Titan Minerals, a gold miner exploring in Ecuador, announced that infill drilling at the Cerro Verde zone of its Dynasty project in Ecuador has intersected thick, high-grade ore bodies.

The drilling aimed to upgrade the exploration category of the resource.

Key reverse circulation drilling results include:

◎Intersected 38.5 meters grading 3 g/t gold and 5.6 g/t silver from 168.8 meters depth, including a high-grade zone of 7.5 meters at 11 g/t gold and 12.7 g/t silver.

◎Intersected 8.6 meters grading 5.9 g/t gold and 9.5 g/t silver from 64.6 meters depth.

The true width of the mineralization is unknown.

Currently, the Dynasty project hosts a gold resource of 3.12 million ounces (grading 2.23 g/t) and a silver resource of 21.98 million ounces (grading 15.7 g/t).

CEO Leighton Melanie stated that the company's 2025 drilling campaign is designed to support "a reliable updated mineral resource estimate for feasibility studies." She mentioned that drilling has been paused to evaluate the latest results, plan next steps, and pursue potential deals.
