Excitement Builds as SAGA Metals Prepares for Major Drilling in Canada
SAGA Metals Gears Up for Inaugural Drill Programs
SAGA Metals Corp. ('SAGA' or the 'Company') (TSXV: SAGA) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H), an exploration company dedicated to critical mineral discovery in North America, is thrilled to announce its final preparations for the highly anticipated initial drill programs at its notable Double Mer Uranium and Radar Ti-V projects in Labrador.
Winter Preparations for the Double Mer Uranium Project
In mid-January, SAGA's experienced exploration team, led by Chief Geologist and Director Michael Garagan, arrived in Labrador to finalize their setup for drilling operations. After collecting necessary equipment from their storage unit, they swiftly undertook orientations and briefed local support staff, including the Air Tunilik helicopter team, on their goals for the project.
Within days, the team successfully executed their first winter flight into the Double Mer camp to assess the ice cover on the lake, ensuring safe landing for their aircraft. The measured ice thickness of 22 inches, surpassing the minimum requirement of 19 inches, facilitated the establishment of the camp, allowing for the unloading of supplies and prepping for future equipment arrivals.
In the days that followed, SAGA planned to efficiently transport additional camp materials—lumber, piping, and essential generators—while enlisting Geominex for further camp refurbishment to introduce the uranium drill program effectively.
Radar Titanium-Vanadium Project Preparations
In Cartwright, local operators made significant strides by clearing and preparing the drillers' laydown site around the targeted Hawkeye zone. Fuel reserves were efficiently transported to both the Double Mer camp and Cartwright, ensuring readiness for ongoing operations.
As the weekend approached, SAGA's team began clearing drill pads, enhancing trails, and setting up the core shack to expedite the arrival of Gladiator Drilling, who is set to initiate drilling operations at the successful Radar Ti-V project shortly.
Insights from Michael Garagan
Michael Garagan expressed enthusiasm about the final preparations, stating, "As we finalize the camp and prepare the drill site, we are filled with excitement for our upcoming maiden drill programs! The effort put in by our exceptional team and supportive local providers will pave the way for our exploration journey. We eagerly anticipate uncovering what lies beneath the surface!"
Highlights of the Maiden Drill Program
As SAGA embarks on this journey, significant drill program highlights include:
- Drilling Timeline: Commencement in Q1 2025 for both projects, with immediate focus on the Radar Ti-V project.
- Double Mer Uranium Evaluation: The drill program aims to systematically explore various anomalies within the Luivik zone.
- Uranium Potential in Luivik Zone: Exploration of the 18 km radiometric trend indicating favorable conditions for uranium deposits.
- Emphasized Resource Assessment: Initial research suggests genetic connections between pegmatites observed throughout the extensive radiometric trend.
- Radar Ti-V Project Focus: The Hawkeye zone, already verified via surface samples and geophysics, presents clear targets for drilling operations.
- High-Grade Results: Historical assays show promising results, indicating significant titanium and vanadium grades over a considerable span.
- Defining Mineralization: Comprehensive geophysical studies outline the mineralization potential at considerable depths.
Exploration Overview of Double Mer Project
SAGA's flagship asset, the Double Mer Uranium Project, encompasses 1,024 claims over 25,600 hectares in Labrador.
