Western Star Resources Inc. (CSE: WSR) (OTC: WSRIF) (FRA: 4K2) has announced the engagement of Dahrouge Geological Consulting to assist in evaluating and exploring the company's past-producing tungsten assets in Nevada and New Mexico. The collaboration aims to advance the technical understanding of these properties and move toward a maiden drill program in 2026.
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 the data into a technical model. Working with Western Star's existing geological team, the intermediate goal is to develop a comprehensive program to drill the historical noncompliant resource, with the aim of producing a mineral resource estimate (MRE) after the initial drill program.
Dahrouge Geological Consulting is a North American mineral exploration, consulting, and project management group with offices in Edmonton, Montreal, and Denver. The Denver office will lead support efforts, providing regional expertise in site-specific geology and resource evaluation. Services include project generation, program design, geophysics, project evaluation, and geology and resource estimations.
Jacob Anderson, Certified Professional Geologist at Dahrouge, expressed excitement about working closely with Western Star's team to better understand the geology and mineralization of the Eagle Point Mine. He noted that Dahrouge will work aggressively to advance the understanding of Eagle Point's resource potential while helping to de-risk and expand the mineral resource of the project.
Western Star Resources is positioning itself as 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, aiming to participate in the growing need for secure domestic critical mineral supply.
