Titan Discovery Corp. Announces Assay Results from Peninsula Property Exploration Program
Vancouver, British Columbia / TheNewswire / March 4th, 2024 – Titan Discovery Corp. (“TDC”, “Titan” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the assay results from the Peninsula Property Exploration Program. This data will directly influence the proposed DDH locations for the upcoming Maiden Drilling Campaign at the Peninsula Property, Quebec. The Company will complete 5-drill holes with the aim of defining and expanding the known 900 Mt recrystallized structure that was based on historical estimates as defined in a 43-101 using 3D magnetic inversions and density conversions.
Assay Results Summary
Laboratory analysis work has shown the following:
-
Magnetite(Fe,iron)@over65%withapercentageofresourceminedof16%.
-
Apatite(P2O5,phosphate)representing10.56%ofresourceminedwithconcentratestoover40% P2O5.
-
Ilmenite(TiO2,titanium)representing14.35%ofresourceminedwithconcentrateover44%TiO2.
Overall total recovery of 40% plus of total resource mined. The focus area of future drilling is a zone that is 4 kms by 7kms - representing a potentially massive, mineralized structure.

James Turner (B.Sc., P.Geo.), Lead Geologist, commented, “These definitive results from our recent exploration program highlight the world-class potential of the Peninsula Property. The map of sample locations with high-grade TiO2 results depict the following:
-
Almost all the samples taken over PUYJALON area have a significant grade of TiO2. The PUYJALON area has potential for an ilmenite-phosphate zone like the UFFEN (priority phosphate mineralization) zone, with potentially higher TiO2 (ilmenite) grade (4 samples grading 9 to 13 % TiO2).
-
Allsamplestakenover OCTAVE areaarebarren anorthositebecausewewereunableto land with helicopter over some magnetic zone.
-
All samples taken over UFFEN SOUTH area are barren anorthosite because we sampled over area without magnetic zone for credits to renewing claims.
-
Almost all samples taken over UKUNEU area have intermediate grade of TiO2.Therefore, the magnetic anomalies covered by these claims are mineralized and must be prospected to assess their potential.
On the map of sample location with P2O5 (apatite), we can see the grade of phosphate and iron follow the grade of TiO2 and therefore drive to the same above conclusions of the TiO2 map. The Northeast Detail on Mag clearly depicts the NORITE samples with good TiO2 grade are located over the blue magnetic negative anomalies”.
The parameters of a NORITE are: Higher TiO2 grade than 2%, Higher P2O5 grade than 1.5%, Higher F2O3 (iron-oxide) grade than 12%.

About Titan Discovery Corporation
Titan Discovery Corp. (“TDC”) is a privately held mineral resource company that has secured a high-value resource project (The Peninsula Project) in Quebec, Canada, which comprises of a series of very large titanium, scandium, vanadium, and phosphate deposits. The Project contains both a substantial historical resource and an exploration potential that can create one of the largest hard rock titanium-phosphate resources in the world. The Company looks to quickly increase project value; through metallurgical testing of samples to be obtained, initially from three outcropping priority targets. In addition, TDC will undertake already targeted geological work programs comprising geophysical trenching and drilling programs, which upon conclusion, is expected to provide valuable guidance and justification for further capital deployment and strategic application of value enhancing geological work.
Securing North America’s supply chain through a diverse array of clean, high-grade critical metals.
