Western Star Resources Inc. (CSE: WSR) (OTC: WSRIF) (FRA: 4K2) has released an updated investor presentation that consolidates its rapidly advancing North American critical-minerals portfolio, with a strategic focus on building a significant U.S. tungsten exploration platform. The presentation, available on the company's website at www.westernstarresources.com, brings together for the first time the historical production records, modern exploration results, geophysical interpretations, surface sampling, emerging drill targets, and the planned advancement strategy across the Eagle Point, Rowland, and White Star tungsten projects in the United States, alongside the drill-permitted polymetallic Western Star Project in British Columbia.
The company believes this presentation demonstrates the significant transformation it has undergone over the past year, moving from acquiring historically productive mineral assets to actively generating modern exploration data and advancing priority targets toward drill testing. The U.S. tungsten strategy is now centered on three past-producing projects in two established mining jurisdictions, each offering a different stage of exploration opportunity and together providing a growing pipeline of potential drill targets.
At Eagle Point, New Mexico, the company holds a 100% interest in a past-producing tungsten project with eight historically mapped skarn bodies along approximately 1,500–2,000 feet of prospective granite-limestone contact. Historical production included about 1,800 tons of scheelite-bearing material shipped to the U.S. Government stockpile during 1943–44, with surface sampling by USGS/NMBGMR returning up to 27.6% WO3. In 1955, the U.S. Government prepared a Defense Minerals Exploration Administration contract that would have funded 75% of an exploration program, but it was never carried out. The company intends to use modern mapping, geochemistry, geophysics, and, subject to permitting and financing, drilling to test historically identified mineralization and extensions, with the objective of potentially preparing a maiden NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate.
In Nevada, the Rowland project's 2026 exploration program returned selected rock, float, and channel results up to 4.02% WO3, with soil geochemistry and UAV magnetics identifying Central and Rowland Main as principal target areas within an approximately one-kilometre geochemical corridor. The adjoining White Star project returned a selective rock sample of 3.00% WO3 and 711 ppm Mo, and a high-resolution UAV magnetic dataset has identified multiple interpreted target zones. Together, Rowland and White Star form the consolidated Jarbidge–Charleston tungsten footprint, covering more than six kilometres of prospective horizons, and the company has initiated drill-permitting activities with a USFS Plan of Operations due shortly.
The updated presentation also highlights the company's assessment of U.S. federal programs that may support domestic critical-mineral exploration, including a submitted application to a U.S. Defense Industrial Base Consortium solicitation. The company notes the historical precedent at Eagle Point, where a 1955 government contract would have funded 75% of drilling, but was never executed.
CEO Blake Morgan commented, "The purpose of this new presentation is to show investors exactly what Western Star has built and, more importantly, where we intend to take it next. We have assembled three past-producing tungsten projects in the United States and we are no longer simply talking about historical potential. At Rowland and White Star we have generated modern geophysics, geochemistry and certified laboratory results. At Rowland, drill permitting has commenced. At Eagle Point, we are working toward systematically testing a tungsten system that attracted significant U.S. Government attention historically, but where the principal government-backed drilling program was never completed."
The presentation also includes the company's 100%-owned Western Star Property in British Columbia, a 4,740-hectare project permitted for drilling, hosting twelve documented MINFILE mineral occurrences. The company's primary focus remains advancing its U.S. tungsten portfolio, while the Canadian project provides additional optionality.
Qualified Person Jasper Mowatt, MIMMM and MAusIMM, a consultant to the company, has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this release and the presentation. He visited the properties in June 2026. The company cautions that historical estimates are not NI 43-101 compliant and should not be relied upon, and there is no assurance that future drilling will result in resource definition or that mineralization will be economically recoverable.
