Saga Metals (TSXV: SAGA)<\/strong> reported an intercept<\/strong><\/span> this week at its Radar Critical Minerals Project<\/strong> of 470 m grading<\/span> 36.72% Fe2O3, 5.40% TiO2, and 0.245% V2O5<\/strong> in drill hole R-0072. This intercept was comparable<\/strong><\/span> in length to Central Park Tower<\/strong> in Manhattan, the world’s tallest residential building at 472.4 metres.<\/p>\n\n

The drill hole ended in mineralization<\/span><\/strong> and included two high-grade intercepts<\/strong><\/span> of 69.2 m grading<\/span> 51.03% Fe2O3, 8.55% TiO2, and 0.334% V2O5<\/strong> (the 4th-highest-grade intercept drilled at Radar to date) and 66.8 m grading<\/span> 50.06% Fe2O3, 8.07% TiO2, and 0.349% V2O5<\/strong> (the 5th-highest-grade intercept drilled at Radar to date).<\/p>\n\n

If you look at Oceanic Iron Ore (TSXV: FEO)<\/strong> in Northern Quebec, it rose from $0.14 per share<\/strong> on April 7, 2025, to a high of $1.15 per share<\/strong> on October 3, 2025, for a gain of 721.43%<\/strong><\/span> in six months after Frank Giustra bought out a Chinese investment fund’s stake in the company at $0.25 per share. FEO<\/strong> has 261.51 million shares outstanding, for a current market cap at $0.78 per share<\/strong> of CAD$203.98 million<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n\n

Oceanic Iron Ore’s Hopes Advance Project<\/strong> contains 1.388 billion tonnes of Measured & Indicated resources grading 32.1% Fe, plus another 222 million tonnes Inferred grading 32.5% Fe. For comparison with SAGA’s Radar Project<\/strong>, which reports iron grades as Fe2O3, Oceanic’s grades are equivalent to approximately 45.9% Fe2O3 and 46.5% Fe2O3, respectively.<\/p>\n\n

For FEO’s Hopes Advance Project<\/strong>, iron ore concentrate will be the project’s only saleable mineral product.<\/p>\n\n

For SAGA’s Radar Critical Minerals Project<\/strong>, the goal is to produce three different end-use products: iron, titanium, and vanadium… thereby creating three potential revenue streams from the same mineralized system. Importantly, iron could ultimately prove to be the least valuable of Radar’s three potential revenue streams.<\/p>\n\n

According to SAGA’s CEO, metallurgical work completed to date<\/strong><\/span> has shown that the iron and vanadium report predominantly<\/span> to the magnetite fraction<\/strong>, while approximately 90% of the titanium reports<\/span> to the ilmenite fraction<\/strong>. This natural separation<\/strong><\/span> is important because SAGA’s objective<\/strong> is to recover all three commodities<\/span><\/strong> through an integrated processing flowsheet and ultimately produce three end-use products.<\/p>\n\n

SAGA<\/strong> will potentially have two flagship mineral exploration projects<\/strong><\/span>. SAGA’s Wolverine Heavy Rare Earth Project<\/strong> in Labrador has an REE ash flow footprint<\/strong> of 26 sq km<\/strong><\/span>, and its maiden diamond drill program<\/strong> is taking place right now<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n\n
