American Tungsten (OTCQB:TUNGF) reported new assay results from the D-level of the Ima mine in Idaho, outlining stacked tungsten-bearing polymetallic veins in the footwall of the No. 5 and 7 vein system.
Highlights include 24 ft grading 0.75% WO3 and 3.06 oz/t Ag in hole AT26-23, 5.2 ft at 1.14% WO3 in AT26-24, and 4.4 ft at 1.72% WO3 in AT26-27. Newly numbered No. 0, 1 and 2 veins extend 300–400 ft down-dip and up to 200 ft along strike. Phase 2 exploration is underway, with 24 D-level and 15 Zero-level drillholes completed totaling about 17,600 ft, and further drilling and assays pending.
American Tungsten (OTCQB:TUNGF, TSXV:TUNG) reported results from a March 2026 drill program on the historical Lower Tailings Project at the IMA Mine in Idaho.
All 35 boreholes across the 30-acre tailings area intersected tungsten mineralization. From 127 samples, average grades were 0.152% WO₃ and 0.269 oz/t silver, with estimated tailings volume of 190,000–200,000 m³.
The average tailings thickness was 5.9 ft, with a maximum of 13.5 ft/b. According to American Tungsten, these results support work toward defining a Mineral Resource, Reserve studies, and a potential capital-efficient pathway to produce saleable tungsten concentrate alongside the planned restart of the IMA underground mine.
American Tungsten (OTCQB:TUNGF) announced a major expansion of exploration at the Ima Mine in Idaho, launching a 35,000-foot surface and underground drilling program using four rigs.
The multi-objective campaign targets several vein systems to extend and confirm tungsten and molybdenum mineralization.
American Tungsten (OTCQB: TUNGF) reported initial underground Zero Level drilling at the Ima Mine, Idaho, with multiple tungsten-silver intercepts. Highlights include 17.8 ft @ 0.435% WO3 and 8 ft @ 0.69% WO3. Eleven holes (≈5,000 ft) completed from one Zero-level station; assays pending for six holes.
Phase 1 totals ~13,229 ft across 33 holes on D and Zero levels; a second Zero-level station is near completion.
American Tungsten (OTCQB: TUNGF) reports initial assays from a second D-level drill station at the IMA Mine, Idaho, with multiple significant tungsten-silver intercepts confirming strike and up-dip continuity from historical workings. Highlights include 28.3 ft @ 0.39% WO3, 26.2 ft @ 0.33% WO3, and 10 ft @ 0.80% WO3.
Phase 1 drilling has completed 23 holes (~7,800 ft) across D- and Zero levels; at least four more holes (~2,800 ft) are planned on the D-level and up to 20 holes (~10,000 ft) on the Zero level.
American Tungsten (OTCQB: TUNGF) began auger drilling in the historical lower tailings impoundment at the IMA Mine, Lemhi County, Idaho, targeting ~30 acres of tailings. The program plans 35 drillholes totaling ~370 feet to delineate tailings thickness, collect assays and in-situ density. Preliminary samples averaged ~0.25% WO3 and ~0.45 oz/t Ag. The company contracted Haz-Tech Drilling and expects the program to last about one week. The release also announced geological advisor Max Baker joining to support resource development and advancement toward production.
American Tungsten (CSE: TUNG; OTCQB: TUNGF) reported positive initial metallurgical test work from the IMA Tungsten Project on March 3, 2026. Staged Falcon gravity with regrind reached 94.4% WO3 recovery; heavy liquid separation achieved 91.1% WO3 recovery at 33.8% mass pull. Sulfide flotation recovered 83.2% Cu, 72.0% Ag, and 59.1% Mo. Head grade averaged 1.1% WO3 and BBWi measured 13.51 kW hr/tonne. Company plans further metallurgical and process design testing and is advancing development after a recent $40 million bought‑deal financing.
American Tungsten (OTCQB: TUNGF) reported underground drilling results from the IMA Mine, Idaho, expanding the No.5–No.7 vein system over 300 ft up-dip and > 350 ft along strike. Highlight intercepts include 17 ft @ 1.28% WO3 & 3.53 oz/t Ag and 14.2 ft @ 0.67% WO3 & 1.15 oz/t Ag.
To date the company completed 11 D-level and 3 Zero-level holes (~5,000 ft); at least six additional D-level holes (~2,800 ft) are planned and Zero-level drilling could total ~10,000 ft.
American Tungsten (OTCQB: TUNGF) has started drilling on the Zero level of the IMA Mine in Lemhi County and put a second drill rig into operation on February 18, 2026.
Approximately 325 feet of the Zero level was rehabilitated, a new drill station (DSZ-1) established, and 9 holes (3,800 ft) currently designed from DSZ-1 with additional drilling planned including up to 15 holes (~10,000 ft) from a second Zero-level station. Prior work includes > 4,200 ft drilled in 11 holes from the D level and ~335 ft of new underground development.
Exploration uses historical data that has not been verified and there is insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource.
American Tungsten (OTCQB: TUNGF) reported initial underground drill results from the IMA Tungsten Project, Idaho, with multiple significant tungsten-silver intercepts. Highlights include 31 ft @ 0.48% WO3 & 1.84 oz/t Ag, 11.1 ft @ 1.08% WO3 & 2.05 oz/t Ag, and 16.3 ft @ 0.54% WO3 & 1.79 oz/t Ag.
Ten underground holes (~3,800 ft) were completed on the D-level; further assays and additional drilling from D and Zero levels are planned to support a mineral resource definition and metallurgy work.
