Kilbourne Exploration Update

The Company is pleased to provide an update on the Kilbourne exploration program first announced on November 2, 2023 (Titan Mining Advances Kilbourne Exploration, With Surface Trenching And Bulk Sample Identification Underway). A total of 99 samples were collected from 181 ft (55 m) of trenching with bedrock exposed for later channel sampling in five trenches totaling over 1,000 ft (305 m) of exposed Kilbourne host rock. Drilling began in December 2023 with eight holes totaling 2,074 ft (632 m) completed to date. The Company’s Phase 1 drilling program contemplates an additional 10,000 ft (3,048 m) of drilling. An initial bulk sample was identified through these exploration activities and collected in January 2024.
