McLaren Minerals Limited has returned further assay results from its 2026 Mineral Resource Upgrade and Expansion drilling program at the McLaren Titanium Project in Western Australia, highlighted by an interval of 24 metres at 7.54% heavy minerals from surface in hole MAC467.

The latest batch covers 61 holes and 1,293 metres of complete sampled intervals. Without a heavy mineral cut-off applied, the results deliver a length-weighted average of 4.57% heavy minerals across an average sampled thickness of 21.2 metres, with every reported interval commencing directly at surface.

Broad higher-grade intercepts featured prominently across the batch. Ten holes returned at least 21 metres averaging 5% heavy minerals or better, with eight of those extending for at least 24 metres. Hole MAC467 also recorded a peak individual one-metre assay of 20.10% heavy minerals in its final metre from 23 to 24 metres.

Additional standout intervals include hole MAC468, which intersected 13 metres from surface at 7.25% heavy minerals with a peak of 17.64% in the final metre, and hole MAC532, which returned 27 metres at 5.83% heavy minerals from surface. Across the 61 holes, 43 averaged at least 4% heavy minerals, 20 reached at least 5%, six hit 6% or higher, and three averaged at least 7%. Nine holes returned individual one-metre assays of at least 10% heavy minerals.

The current drilling program forms part of the first stage of the Bankable Feasibility Study at the McLaren Titanium Project, which previously completed 663 holes for a total of 11,568 metres.

Commenting on the results, Managing Director Simon Finnis said, “It is very pleasing to see more excellent results from McLaren, including some very high-grade results, and some great intercepts, with two averaging more than 7% HM - again, all from surface.”

McLaren plans to integrate the complete 2026 drilling dataset into an updated geological model and Mineral Resource estimate for the project. An updated Mineral Resource estimate is scheduled for release later in 2026 to support future Ore Reserve estimation and Bankable Feasibility Study activities.
