Eureka Metals Corp. has reported assay results from its surface exploration program at the Tyee Titanium Project in Québec, identifying five new titanium occurrences with samples grading more than 35% TiO₂.

The 2026 field campaign, managed by IOS Geosciences, identified six new massive ilmenite occurrences across the property. Laboratory analysis confirmed that nine samples from the program exceeded 35% TiO₂, with grades ranging from 35.13% to 36.87% TiO₂. These high-grade samples also returned consistent vanadium values between approximately 0.26% and 0.30% V₂O₅.

The new occurrences expand the geographic distribution of high-grade titanium mineralization beyond the project's principal historical areas at Big Tio, NS Trend, and East Nugget. Eureka acquired a 100% interest in the Tyee Titanium Project in January 2026 through the purchase of Stairway Mining Inc. for 12,000,000 common shares.

The company recently completed a high-resolution airborne magnetic and VLF-EM survey covering approximately 2,441 line-kilometres across the project in August 2026. Eureka is now comparing the locations of the newly identified high-grade titanium occurrences with the airborne geophysical survey results to prioritize areas for follow-up exploration and determine which sites correspond with larger targets.

“The key result from this program is that we didn't just reproduce the high titanium grades previously found at Tyee; we found them at five new occurrences,” said Danny Matthews, Chief Executive Officer of Eureka Metals. “We now have high-grade titanium results across a much broader area of the Project. With our new airborne geophysics completed, the next step is to determine which of these new occurrences may be associated with larger targets and where we should focus the next phase of exploration.” — Danny Matthews, Chief Executive Officer of Eureka Metals

Regional activity across the surrounding district includes drilling permit applications and exploration programs advanced by neighboring operators, such as North Atlantic Titanium Corp. at the Everett project. Eureka expects to provide further updates on the Tyee Titanium Project as the integration of its geophysical survey data and surface assay results progresses.
