Western Star Resources announced results from its first systematic soil sampling at the White Star Tungsten Project in Nevada, revealing two distinct tungsten-in-soil anomalies. The highest tungsten concentration found was 0.28% WO₃, indicating tungsten-bearing rock near the surface, especially in the South Zone near the historical Mission Cross mine. These findings complement similar anomalies at their Rowland property, and the company plans further soil sampling and drilling to explore these promising targets. This advances their strategy to develop tungsten resources in the U.S.
