SAGA Metals Reports Significant Final Drill Holes from the 2025 Winter Program at Radar Ti-V-Fe Property in Labrador
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SAGA Metals Corp. ('SAGA' or the 'Company') (TSXV: SAGA) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H), a North American exploration company focused on critical mineral discovery, is pleased to announce the final drill results from its 2025 maiden drill program at the Radar Ti-V-Fe Property, located near the port of Cartwright in Labrador, Canada. The Property comprises 24,175-hectares and entirely encloses the Dykes River mafic layered intrusive complex.
SAGA Metals Confirms Technical Success with the Drill:
Key drill intercepts from HEZ-06, HEZ-02 & HEZ-03 (final 3 holes of the 7-hole program) include:
Table 1:

'The Dykes River Intrusion is a layered mafic intrusion. Our initial 7 diamond drill holes comprised 4 holes that tested the semi-massive to massive vanadiferous titanomagnetite layers and 3 holes that were sited mostly above and to the south of the magnetite layers. The 3 holes reported herein will facilitate a complete sampling of the entire intrusive layering sequence. These seven successful drill holes test a highly mineralized zone, confirming the extraordinary potential lying within our 20 km of high magnetic responses and titanomagnetite layers,'
commented Michael Garagan, CGO & Director of Saga Metals.
Interpretation of the Drill Results for HEZ-06, HEZ-02 & HEZ-03:
HEZ-06, HEZ-02 & HEZ-03 were all drilled within the hangingwall of the oxide layering zones. These layering intercepts bracketed the oxide layering intersected in HEZ-01, HEZ-04, HEZ-05 & HEZ-07, which intercepted the main layers of the titanomagnetite mineralization.
These last three drill holes complete the evaluation over the cross section of the entire magnetic anomaly drilled during this program, which has allowed the team to isolate four separate magmatic layers across the zone of mineralization, which is mappable and trackable. These consistent brackets of VTM mineralization will be the focus of SAGA's efforts for both mapping and metallurgical purposes.
Next Steps for the Radar Project:
The Radar Project has completed its first critical steps with the proof-of-concept 2025 winter drill program, which highlights the significance of the correlation between surface samples, geophysics, and drilling. SAGA is now targeting its other magnetic anomalies across the Property, all of which are larger than the one recently drilled.
Next steps to quickly delineate drill targets will involve completing detailed ground geophysics over the main regional airborne magnetic anomalies, as shown in Figure 2 below. In conjunction with ground-based geophysics over the priority anomalies, SAGA plans to execute a property-wide high-resolution aeromagnetic survey to locate high-priority drilling targets.
Additionally, SAGA has initiated a metallurgy and petrography analysis on the core from the Hawkeye zone. This work will determine the recoverable vanadiferous magnetite and the quality of potential concentrates.
Lastly, SAGA will conduct alternate whole-rock analyses to delineate secondary mineralization of phosphate, manganese, and scandium, as well as certain REE that are prospective in this large mafic layered intrusion.

Radar Ti-V-Fe Property Overview:
The Company's 100%-owned Radar Property is located 10 km from the coastal city of Cartwright, Labrador, benefiting from tremendous infrastructure, including road access, deep-water port, airstrip and nearby hydro-electric power. The Radar Property comprises 24,175-hectares and entirely encloses the Dykes River intrusive complex.
The Dykes River intrusive complex is a recently recognized Mesoproterozoic layered mafic intrusion (Gower, 2017). It has gained attention due geological similarities to large AMCG-type intrusions and a very extensive titanium–vanadium–iron (Ti-V-Fe) rich layer.
The 2025 drill program confirmed massive to semi-massive oxide layering, hosting titanium and vanadium mineralization, representing only 1/40th of the approximately 20km long oxide layering zone identified at the Radar project. The geological context identified by Dr. Al Miller's petrographic studies has substantially advanced understanding of the Radar deposit. These findings indicate a titanomagnetite mineralization system which is advantageous for simplified metallurgical processing and potentially improved economic outcomes.

Koryx Copper Announces Filing of its Annual Information Form
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Koryx Copper Inc. ('Koryx' or the 'Company') (TSX-V: KRY) is pleased to confirm the filing of its Annual Information Form ('AIF') for the year ended August 31, 2024 on SEDAR+ under the Company's profile at An electronic copy of the AIF may be obtained on the Company's website at or under the Company's SEDAR+ profile. About Koryx Copper Inc. Koryx Copper Inc. is a Canadian copper development Company focused on advancing the 100% owned Haib Copper Project in Namibia whilst also building a portfolio of copper exploration licenses in Zambia. Haib is a large, advanced (PEA-stage) copper/molybdenum porphyry deposit in southern Namibia with a long history of exploration and project development by multiple operators. More than 80,000m of drilling has been conducted at Haib since the 1970's with significant exploration programs led by companies including Falconbridge (1964), Rio Tinto (1975) and Teck (2014). Extensive metallurgical testing and various technical studies have also been completed at Haib to date. Additional studies are underway aiming to demonstrate Haib as a future long-life, low-cost, low-risk open pit, sulphide flotation copper project with the potential for additional copper production from heap leaching. Haib has a current mineral resource of 414Mt @ 0.35% Cu for 1,459Mt of contained copper in the Indicated category and 345Mt @ 0.33% Cu for 1136Mt of contained copper in the Inferred category (0.25% Cu cut-off). Mineralization at Haib is typical of a porphyry copper deposit and it is one of only a few examples of a Paleoproterozoic porphyry copper deposit in the world and one of only two in southern Africa (both in Namibia). Due to its age, the deposit has been subjected to multiple metamorphic and deformation events but still retains many of the classic mineralization and alteration features typical of these deposits. The mineralization is dominantly chalcopyrite with minor bornite and chalcocite present and only minor secondary copper minerals at surface due to the arid environment. Further details of the Haib Copper Project are available in the corresponding technical report titled, 'NI 43-101 Technical Report – August 2024 Mineral Resource Estimate for the Haib Copper Project, Namibia' dated effective August 31, 2024 (the 'Technical Report'). The Technical Report and other information is available on the Company's website at and under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS 'Heye Daun' President, CEO and Director Additional information is also available by contacting the Company: Julia Becker Corporate Communications [email protected] +1-604-785-0850 Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
