Our Company

Company
Overview

Temas Resources Corp. (CSE: TMAS) (OTCQB: TMASF) owns a suite of advanced green mineral processing technologies which it is not only applying to its mineral exploration projects in North America but looking to license with industry partners in need of proactive commercial solutions worldwide. The novel suite of technologies is applicable to many different metals and rare earth elements and studies have shown that it reduces the environmental impact and carbon footprint of metal extraction while significantly improving operating margins through advanced processing and patented leaching technologies. 

Additionally, the Company owns 100% of the exclusive mineral rights to two titanium, vanadium and iron bearing properties in Quebec. It is advancing the 208.5Mt inferred @ 16.7% TiO2 Eq La Blache VTM/ilmenite project where it has consolidated 100% ownership over three deposit areas. The Farrell-Taylor deposit is the subject of a current Preliminary Economic Assessment (the “PEA”) showing C$6.6 billion NPV8 post tax, 60.8% IRR over a 14-year mine life. Temas is actively exploring exclusive mineral rights to its high-grade Lac Brule hemo-ilmenite hosted titanium deposit which is geologically similar to Rio Tinto’s (ASX: RIO) TiOdeposit at the nearby Lac Tio mine in Sorel-Tracy, Quebec. The critical metals the Company is exploring for are central to our national mineral independence, and titanium is a key aerospace and defense industry metal.

Two Core Divisions Driving Investor Value

Temas aims to maximize shareholder value through patented metallurgical IP technology licensing and strategic North American mineral exploration assets.

DIVISION 1: Metallurgical IP and Technology Licensing

Key Highlights

  • Temas owns 11 novel process patents, known as Regenerative Chloride Leach (“RCL”) technology, providing consistent benefits transferable to new minerals.
  • Verified significant cost reduction: over 65% validated for TiO₂ processing, due to reagent recycling, optimized recovery, and lower energy use.
  • RCL technology has demonstrated the capability to produce high-quality 99.8% TiO₂ from pilot studies.
  • Temas is actively pursuing global licensing opportunities, with third-party companies currently evaluating Temas IP for potential operations in Indonesia, Australia, and North America.

DIVISION 2: North American Mineral Exploration

Strategically positioned exploration projects focused on securing critical mineral supply.

Key Highlights

La Blache Project (Quebec):

  • 130 mineral claims (~7,000 hectares), inferred resource of 208.5 Mt, significant exploration potential confirmed by previous drilling.
  • Plans include additional HQ diamond drilling and resource upgrade to Measured and Indicated status.

Lac Brule Project (Quebec):

  • 36 mineral claims, high-grade hemo-ilmenite deposit with areas up to 34% TiO₂.
  • Immediate development plans aimed at reaching a Preliminary Economic Analysis (PEA) stage by 2026.
