SAGA Metals (TSXV: SAGA)<\/strong> just reported this morning that they intersected<\/span> 163.0 m<\/strong> grading 43.07% Fe\u2082O\u2083, 6.19% TiO\u2082 and 0.293% V\u2082O\u2085<\/strong>, including 92.3 m<\/strong> grading 47.36% Fe\u2082O\u2083, 6.73% TiO\u2082 and 0.353% V\u2082O\u2085<\/strong> in drill hole R-0061<\/strong> at the Radar Critical Minerals Project<\/strong> in Labrador.<\/p>\n\n

If you compare this to Empire Metals (LSE: EEE)<\/strong>, at a market cap<\/strong> of US$468.64 million<\/strong><\/span>, their 2025 Air Core drilling program had an average intercept of 52.2 m per hole<\/strong> with an average weathered-interval grade of 5.77% TiO\u2082<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

In 2024, EEE<\/strong> had a couple of long drill holes comparable to what SAGA<\/strong> reported today, including 154 m @ 6.76% TiO\u2082<\/strong> in drill hole RC24TOM022<\/strong>, 150 m @ 6.44% TiO\u2082<\/strong> in drill hole RC24TOM021<\/strong>, and 148 m @ 6.49% TiO\u2082<\/strong> in drill hole RC24COS019<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

When you consider that vanadium<\/strong> is at least 6x more valuable<\/strong><\/span> than titanium<\/strong>, and the iron adds to the overall value of the project, SAGA's drill hole R-0061<\/strong> is better than the best reported EEE drill holes<\/strong> from 2024.<\/p>\n\n

The bottom line is SAGA's market cap<\/strong> here at $0.49 per share<\/strong> is only US$37.27 million<\/strong><\/span>, which is absolute insanity considering EEE<\/strong> is worth US$468.64 million<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n\n

SAGA<\/strong> also just announced this morning that they completed a first-pass<\/span> drill hole<\/strong> at an entirely new<\/strong><\/span>, previously undrilled<\/strong><\/span> area called Trapper Grace<\/strong> and intercepted<\/span> 98.9 m @ 28.51% Fe\u2082O\u2083, 4.01% TiO\u2082 and 0.157% V\u2082O\u2085<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

SAGA's maiden MRE drilling<\/strong> is basically complete. SAGA<\/strong> is just one drill hole away from completing the planned MRE drill program. They added two holes, R-0091<\/strong> and R-0092<\/strong>, specifically because the massive intercepts in Trapper North<\/strong> warranted more structural information for the resource model.<\/p>\n\n

With REEMF<\/strong> now worth US$777.67 million<\/strong><\/span> and SAGA launching<\/span><\/strong> its maiden<\/span> drill program<\/strong> right now at the Wolverine Heavy Rare Earth Project<\/strong> in Labrador, formerly owned by REEMF<\/strong>… SAGA<\/strong> is receiving less than zero<\/strong><\/span> value for Wolverine<\/strong> when this could potentially be one of the most important<\/span> North American Heavy Rare Earth Projects<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
