Titan Minerals Ltd (ASX:TTM, OTC:TTTNF) has delivered a strong set of final resource drilling results from its 100%-owned Dynasty Gold Project in southern Ecuador, confirming continuity of gold-silver mineralisation well below current resource limits at the Cerro Verde prospect.
The latest diamond drilling at the Brecha-Comanche target has more than doubled the depth extent of mineralisation, while also providing infill data expected to lift confidence levels in the upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE), which remains on track for late Q1 2026.

Depth extensions reshape Cerro Verde potential
Extensional drilling beneath the existing Brecha-Comanche resource returned multiple wide, higher-grade intercepts from depths previously considered waste, extending mineralisation from around 200 metres to 400 metres below surface.
Key deep intercepts included:
- 31.4 metres at 2.3 g/t gold and 7.1 g/t silver from 375.7 metres, including 19.2 metres at 3.2 g/t gold and 8.4 g/t silver (CVDD25-186)
- 26.3 metres at 1.7 g/t gold and 5.0 g/t silver from 294.0 metres, including 11.7 metres at 2.9 g/t gold and 7.5 g/t silver (CVDD25-176)
Titan said the results demonstrate strong continuity of vein- and breccia-hosted mineralisation at depth and add new mineralised volumes outside the current resource shell.

Infill drilling improves confidence within existing resource
The same diamond holes also intersected broad zones of mineralisation within the current resource envelope, providing infill assay data in areas of historically wide-spaced drilling.
Significant infill intercepts included:
- 20.7 metres at 2.0 g/t gold and 18.2 g/t silver from 99.7 metres in CVDD25-186
- 32.3 metres at 1.1 g/t gold and 4.8 g/t silver from 171 metres in CVDD25-176, including 8.3 metres at 3.0 g/t gold
According to the company, these results confirm the predictability of the mineralisation model and are expected to support improved resource categorisation in the forthcoming MRE.
Final Brecha-Comanche results, Kaliman assays pending
The newly reported results represent the final batch of drilling from the Brecha-Comanche target completed during Titan’s 2025 resource campaign. Geological and mineralisation models for this area have now been finalised for inclusion in the updated MRE.
Attention is now turning to the Kaliman porphyry target, where several extensional and infill holes remain pending. Results from Kaliman are expected within the next one to two weeks and will complete the 2025 resource drilling program at Dynasty.
Previous drilling at Kaliman has already identified extensive zones of gold-silver ± copper mineralisation, including long intercepts exceeding 100 metres, highlighting the potential scale of the broader Dynasty system.

Resource update advancing
Titan CEO Melanie Leighton said the latest results reinforced both the quality and growth potential of the Dynasty gold system.
“Our drilling continues to deliver solid results, with the forthcoming resource update set to feature improved confidence from infill drilling, and growth in extensional areas where drilling has demonstrated significant new areas of mineralisation outside existing resources,” Leighton said.
“Results from Titan’s 2025 resource drilling have highlighted the quality of the Dynasty gold system, and our ability to rapidly transform the already established 3.1Moz gold and 22Moz silver resource into a high-quality, large-scale, long-life gold mining operation, in an emerging Tier 1 mining jurisdiction,” she added.
“We look forward to a busy and exciting few months ahead, with resource growth and derisking studies to be delivered for the Dynasty Gold Project and blue-sky discovery potential set to be unveiled at our copper projects in Ecuador.”
