SAGA Metals Expands Critical Mineral Deposits with Thicker Oxide Intercepts at Trapper South
Event summary
- Completed ten drill holes at Trapper South, totaling 2,039 meters drilled.
- Significant oxide intercepts ranging from 46.1 m to 111.67 m observed in all holes.
- Assays expected within a week for samples from R-0016 and -0017.
- Drilling continues at an efficient pace, with the eleventh hole nearing completion.
The big picture
SAGA Metals' ongoing drilling program at the Radar Project in Labrador is reinforcing the scale and quality of its titanium-vanadium-iron deposits. The consistent discovery of thick oxide zones aligns with broader industry trends toward securing domestic supplies of critical minerals essential for clean energy technologies. The project's strategic location near existing infrastructure further enhances its potential as a future supplier to North American markets.
