Significant Expansion of Radar Ti-V-Fe Project
VANCOUVER, British Columbia — SAGA Metals Corp. (“SAGA” or the “Company”) (TSXV: SAGA) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H), an exploration company in North America known for its commitment to critical mineral discovery, has recently completed a significant expansion of its Radar Ti-V-Fe Project. The addition of 97 new claims now covers a total of 2,425 hectares, bringing the entire project area to an impressive 24,175 hectares.
Strategic Location and Infrastructure Advantages
The Radar Property is located close to infrastructure that can facilitate efficient exploration and development. It is situated a mere 10 kilometers from the port city of Cartwright, which provides numerous advantages including:
- Accessible road systems
- A deep-water port on the Atlantic Ocean
- Nearby airport facilities
- Proximity to renewable hydroelectric power sources
Geological Features of the Radar Project
With this expansion, the Radar Property fully encompasses the Dykes River intrusive complex, which has recently gained attention due to its resemblance to significant AMCG-type intrusions. This geological formation is noted for containing a rich layer of titanium-vanadium-iron (Ti-V-Fe) minerals including vanadiferous titanomagnetite (VTM).
Regional airborne magnetic surveys indicate the presence of a mafic oxide layer that stretches over 20 kilometers, highlighting the project’s exploratory potential.
Drilling Success in the Hawkeye Zone
SAGA Metals has also made strides in its drilling operations at the Hawkeye zone within the Radar Ti-V-Fe property. Recently, results from the first two of seven drilled holes were released, prompting excitement for upcoming developments. Here are some key highlights from these activities:
- 2,200 meters of drilling targeting depths up to 200 meters across a large 500-meter by 350-meter exploratory zone.
- Initial analyses reveal promising data confirming the main economic mineral is vanadiferous titanomagnetite (VTM), recognized for its favorable metallurgical processing properties.
- Notable intercepts included 31.5 meters at 25.95% Fe, 5.34% TiO2, and 0.28% V2O5 in HEZ-01 and 50 meters at 24.49% Fe, 4.74% TiO2, and 0.305% V2O5 in HEZ-04.
- Samples demonstrated high-grade VTM, with notable levels exceeding 60% VTM in specific layers.
- Drilling confirmed the presence of magnetic anomalies as suggested by geophysical data.
- This initial drilling only covers a fraction of the identified 20 km oxide layer zone.
The analysis of drilling core samples has depicted a massive to semi-massive oxide layer hosting significant VTM mineralization, confirming widths of up to 210 meters. These findings, supported by geological context from petrographic studies, indicate excellent potential for straightforward metallurgical processing, enhancing the economic feasibility of the project.
Future Exploration Plans
Given the successful results from the Hawkeye zone, SAGA Metals plans to replicate its drilling model over five high-priority targets along the 20 km of the oxide layer’s strike length. Preliminary reports from further geophysical assessments in the Trapper zone suggest an even stronger magnetic response than previously detected, indicating promising prospects for continued exploration.
