An update from DY6 Metals Ltd. ( (AU:TSK) ) is now available.

Tusker Minerals has outlined the high-grade potential of its Douala Basin heavy mineral sands project on Cameroon’s coast, a 2,580km² licence area located within 50 km of the deep-water port of Douala. Historical sonic and hand-auger drilling by previous owner Eramet showed consistent, near-surface mineralisation containing rutile, zircon, ilmenite and possible monazite, indicating a potentially low strip ratio and favourable logistics.

The company has appointed Mineral Technologies to define a JORC-compliant Exploration Target over the confirmed high-grade zones, providing an initial assessment of scale and grade. Tusker plans targeted infill drilling from the third quarter of 2026, supported by its in-house heavy mineral sands laboratory in Yaoundé, as it advances Douala as a complementary asset to its Central Rutile Project and strengthens its exposure to critical minerals demand.
