Western Star Resources Inc. (CSE: WSR) (OTC: WSRIF) (FRA: 4K2) has announced that Dahrouge Geological Consulting has joined its technical team to assist in evaluating and future exploration of the company's past-producing tungsten assets in Nevada and New Mexico. The collaboration is expected to accelerate the development of drill targets and advance the company's goal of establishing a mineral resource estimate.
Blake Morgan, CEO of Western Star Resources, stated that Dahrouge has been reviewing technical data at the past-producing Eagle Point Mine in New Mexico to define drill targets across known surface mineralization and consolidate data into a comprehensive technical model. Working with Western Star's existing geological team, the intermediate objective is to develop a program to drill the historical non-compliant resource, followed by a mineral resource estimate after an initial maiden drill program in 2026. Morgan indicated that the board would provide further updates to the market as soon as possible.
Dahrouge Geological Consulting is a North American mineral exploration, consulting, and project management group with offices in Edmonton and Montreal, Canada, and Denver, Colorado. Support for Western Star will be based out of the Denver office, where the team offers regional expertise in site-specific geology and resource evaluation. Dahrouge provides professional geological, logistical, and project management services to the mining and mineral resource industry, including project generation, program design, geophysics, project evaluation, and resource estimations.
Jacob Anderson, Certified Professional Geologist at Dahrouge Consulting, expressed excitement about working with Western Star's geological team to better understand the geology and mineralization at the Eagle Point Mine. He noted that Dahrouge will work aggressively to advance understanding of Eagle Point's resource potential while helping to de-risk and expand the mineral resource of the project.
Western Star Resources is an emerging junior mineral exploration company focused on revitalizing North America's tungsten supply. The company is advancing its entry into the U.S. market through past-producing tungsten assets in historically important mining districts and positioning itself to participate in the growing need for secure domestic critical mineral supply.
The engagement of Dahrouge Geological Consulting marks a significant step for Western Star as it seeks to unlock value from its tungsten assets. For industry leaders, this development underscores the increasing importance of domestic critical mineral supply chains, particularly for tungsten, which is essential in defense, aerospace, and industrial applications. The move could reduce reliance on foreign sources and enhance supply chain security.
Investors and stakeholders will be watching for the outcomes of the drill program and subsequent resource estimate, which could validate the project's potential and attract further interest in the company. The collaboration with a reputable consulting firm like Dahrouge adds credibility to Western Star's technical approach and may de-risk the exploration process.
