SAGA Metals Reports High-Grade Critical Mineral Assays at Labrador Project
Event summary
- SAGA Metals reported assay results from three additional drill holes (R-0021 to R-0023) at its Radar Critical Minerals Project in Labrador, showing high grades of iron oxide (Fe₂O₃), titanium dioxide (TiO₂), and vanadium pentoxide (V₂O₅).
- Key intercepts include 31.38 m @ 53.18% Fe₂O₃, 7.08% TiO₂, 0.414% V₂O₅ in hole R-0021; 30.60 m @ 49.40% Fe₂O₃, 6.61% TiO₂, 0.373% V₂O₅ in hole R-0022; and 86 m @ 45.50% Fe₂O₃, 5.50% TiO₂, 0.367% V₂O₅ in hole R-0023.
- The results bring the total number of reported 2026 MRE holes to eight, with drilling progressing efficiently at 8,144 m completed in the Trapper Zone to date.
The big picture
SAGA Metals' latest assay results reinforce the strategic importance of its Radar Critical Minerals Project in Labrador, positioning it as a potential future supplier of critical minerals to North American markets. The consistent high grades and thick oxide zones observed align with global Fe–Ti–V systems like Panzhihua (China) and Bushveld (South Africa), highlighting the project's district-scale potential.
