Western Star uncovers "strong" historical data in DD

Mr. Blake Morgan reports WESTERN STAR RESOURCES ANNOUNCES PRELIMINARY DUE DILIGENCE OF NEVADA ASSETS REVEALS STRONG HISTORICAL DATA; COMPLETION EXPECTED WITHIN 20 DAY ADVANCING U.S. CRITICAL MINERALS STRATEGY Western Star Resources Inc.'s continuing due diligence review of The Real American Corp. has revealed strong historical data that underscores the project's high-grade potential and strategic value. The company expects to complete the full due diligence process within the next 20 days, following which it anticipates advancing toward a definitive agreement to acquire The Real American Corp. Key highlights from preliminary review: High-grade assays: Historical samples reported up to 5.12 per cent WO (tungsten), compared with the North American average of approximately 0.3 per cent WO3 (tungsten trioxide). Past-producing mine: The project includes adits and test pits confirming mineralization, with tungsten production dating back to the 1940s. Prolific district: Located in Nevada's Tobin and Sonoma Range, near the historic Springer tungsten mine and within a region recognized by the USGS (United States Geological Survey) for tungsten-bearing skarn deposits. Exploration upside: Multiple underexplored outcrops and mineralized zones remain open, with potential to expand resources using modern geophysics and drilling. "The initial due diligence confirms our view that The Real American Corp. represents a unique and timely opportunity," said Blake Morgan, chief executive officer of Western Star. "This asset not only complements our flagship drill permitted green metals project in Canada but also positions us at the heart of U.S. efforts to rebuild domestic supply chains for critical minerals." The Real American Corp. directly aligns with recent United States government directives to secure a domestic tungsten supply, a resource classified as critical to national security. With no U.S. commercial production since 2015 and global supply dominated by China (approximately 85 per cent), companies like Real American/ Western Star are poised to benefit from government support, fast-track permitting and defence-sector demand.
