Temas Resources Corp. reports developments in critical-minerals resource ownership and proprietary metallurgical processing. The company owns the La Blache and Lac Brûlé titanium-vanadium-iron projects in Québec and advances its patented Regenerative Chloride Leach (RCL) technology platform for extracting metals from complex mineralization, concentrates, slags and tailings.
Recurring news includes drilling and re-assay work at La Blache’s Farrell-Taylor Fe-Ti-V oxide system, accessory metal results for gallium, scandium and chromium, RCL pilot testing and laboratory deployment, third-party metallurgical service contracts, technology commercialization activity, scientific advisory appointments and flow-through financing for Canadian exploration expenditures.
Temas Resources (TMASF) has advanced its collaboration with SAGA Metals to Stage 2 bench-scale optimization of titanium, vanadium and iron recovery.
Stage 1 testing of three SAGA feed materials recorded recoveries of up to 90.8% titanium, 97.4% vanadium and 91.5% iron. Those figures came from ilmenite concentrate under the conditions tested. An independent technical review found that Stage 1 objectives were met. Stage 2’s first phase is expected to take approximately eight weeks. It will compare two run-of-mine Massive Oxide samples, optimize leaching and separation, and aim to produce initial titanium dioxide, vanadium and iron samples.
If optimization succeeds and SAGA approves, a proposed 10-week mini-pilot would gather continuous operating data and product samples. Temas expects that phase to generate approximately C$650,000-C$750,000 in revenue. Its final scope and budget will be set after the first phase.
Temas Resources (TMASF) secured shareholder approval for every resolution at its August 27, 2026, annual general and special meeting. Shareholders set the board at five directors until the next annual meeting and elected S. Kyler Hardy, Tim Fernback, Veronique Laberge, Kobi Ben-Shabat and Nic Matich. They appointed DeVisser Gray as auditor and authorized the directors to set its remuneration.
Temas also reported that it has established an RCL metallurgical laboratory, expanded its intellectual property portfolio and begun working with third-party customers, including paying customers. Work with SAGA Metals recorded titanium extraction of up to 90.8%, vanadium extraction of 97.4% and iron extraction of 91.5%, and advanced to Stage 2 optimization. The company aims to move its RCL technology toward demonstration-plant scale, commercial partnerships and technology licensing.
Temas Resources (OTCQB:TMASF) and SAGA Metals completed an independent Stage 1 metallurgical validation program on SAGA’s titanium‑vanadium‑iron mineralization using Temas’ proprietary Regenerative Chloride Leach (RCL) Platform. Two‑stage RCL tests achieved recoveries of up to 90.8% titanium, 91.5% iron and 97.4% vanadium across ROM Massive Oxide, VTM concentrate and ilmenite concentrate feed materials.
The independent review found all Stage 1 objectives were met and recommended advancing immediately to the Detailed Bench Optimization Program (Stage 2), a key step toward mini‑pilot, pilot‑scale testing and potential commercial deployment. According to Temas, the results validate RCL on third‑party mineralization, support its technology licensing strategy and expand potential commercial opportunities with miners seeking efficient, lower‑impact critical mineral processing solutions.
Temas Resources (OTCQB:TMASF) has initiated filing of a new process patent, titled “Chloride-based process for Chromium extraction,” using its proprietary Regenerative Chloride Leach (RCL) mixed-chloride technology. The application establishes a priority date of July 10, 2026, expanding Temas’ critical-minerals IP platform.
According to Temas Resources, the chromium process can be applied to its 100%-owned La Blache and Lac Brûlé titanium-vanadium-iron projects, as well as third‑party ores, concentrates and mine waste. This adds to eleven granted RCL-related process patents across gold, iron, titanium, nickel and rare earth elements, plus a recently filed vanadium patent. The company highlights a global chromium market of US$23.9 billion in 2024, forecast to reach about US$34.5 billion by 2030, and continues confidential discussions and metallurgical testing with potential partners to commercialize the RCL platform via licensing and strategic processing partnerships.
Temas Resources (OTCQB:TMASF) filed a new process patent, "Chloride-based process for Vanadium extraction", using its proprietary Regenerative Chloride Leach (RCL) mixed-chloride leaching technology.
The filing, with priority date July 8, 2026, extends the RCL platform to vanadium, supports technology licensing, and is applicable to high-grade vanadium mineralisation at the La Blache and Lac Brûlé projects in Québec.
The RCL platform now includes eleven granted patents across gold, iron, titanium, nickel and rare earth elements, plus this new vanadium application. Temas reports pilot RCL testing at La Blache produced 88 kg of 99.8% TiO2 from 1 ton of feed and validated TiO2 processing cost reductions of up to 65% versus traditional methods.
Temas Resources (OTCQB:TMASF) reported first Hervieux West re-assay results from its 100%-owned La Blache titanium-vanadium project in Québec. Initial data confirm extensive Fe-Ti-V mineralisation plus gallium, scandium and chromium within broad mineralised zones.
Over 36 km of historic core were recovered for re-assay, creating a consistent fused-bead analytical dataset to support geological modelling, resource updates and engineering studies. Early results include intercepts such as 143m grading 88.7% Fe₂O₃+TiO₂ and 0.48% V₂O₅, with further Hervieux West and Hervieux East assays pending.
Temas Resources (OTCQB:TMASF) reported progress on commissioning its Technology Research and Development Centre metallurgical lab in Ontario, which is expected to be fully operational in July 2026.
Over 13 metric tonnes of previously assayed La Blache drill core are being transferred for extensive RCL metallurgical testing, supporting optimization, commercialization initiatives and future project development.
The RCL platform has produced a 99.8% TiO2 product from a 1‑ton pilot and has validated cost reductions of up to 65% versus traditional processing, with over 69% lower operating costs in certain applications.
Temas Resources (OTCQB:TMASF) reported 2026 fused-bead re-assays of 2022 La Blache drill pulps, confirming broad, high-grade Fe-Ti-V oxide intervals at the Farrell-Taylor deposit and higher accessory metals.
Across 684 matched samples, V₂O₅, Cr, Ga and Sc grades rose about 24%, 48%, 12% and 10%, respectively, with major oxides stable. Temas also highlighted its RCL technology, citing over 65% lower TiO₂ processing costs, signed an investor-relations agreement with NIA, and will revert to quarterly financial reporting.
Temas Resources (OTCQB:TMASF) engaged VECTOR Advisors for ongoing investor relations and strategic communications, under a monthly retainer between AUD$6,000 and AUD$10,000. VECTOR receives cash only; no shares or options. The release reiterates La Blache pilot results (88 kg of 99.8% TiO2 from ~1 tonne) and a validated >65% cost reduction claim for RCL processing.
The company notes its foreign resource estimates are not reported under JORC and remain subject to further evaluation.
Temas Resources (OTCQB:TMASF) closed a non-brokered private placement raising approximately CDN $1.5M via 8,333,334 flow-through shares at $0.18 per FT Share to Maple Leaf Critical Minerals 2026 Enhanced Fund, which will hold about 9.9% post-closing.
Proceeds will fund qualifying Canadian exploration expenditures at the La Blache and Lac Brûlé projects, with expenditures to be incurred by Dec 31, 2027 and renounced to subscribers effective Dec 31, 2026. FT Shares carry a four-month plus one day hold.
