(\"SAGA\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV: SAGA) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H), a North American exploration company focused on critical mineral discoveries, is pleased to report additional assay results from drill holes R-0018, -0019 and -0020 completed in 2026 as part of its ongoing maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (\"MRE\") diamond drill program at the Trapper Zone within the 100%-owned Radar Titanium-Vanadium-Iron Project near Cartwright, Labrador, Canada. Trapper South Assay Highlights Analytical results have been obtained for three (3) additional diamond drill holes of the MRE drill program reinitiated in 2026, with top intercepts including: Hole R-0018: 70.3 m @ 42.64% Fe₂O₃, 5.66% TiO₂, 0.288% V₂O₅Hole R-0019: 45.7 m @ 49.51% Fe₂O₃, 6.56% TiO₂, 0.374% V₂O₅Hole R-0020: 40.7 m @ 37.62% Fe₂O₃, 4.93% TiO₂, 0.239% V₂O₅ These results now bring the total MRE drill results from 2026 to five (5) diamond drill holes received to date. As reported on March 5, 2026, analytical results for the first two (2) diamond drill holes of the 2026 drill program included: Hole R-0016: 50.60 m @ 52.05% Fe₂O₃, 7.21% TiO₂, 0.375% V₂O₅Hole R-0017: 90.01 m @ 51.86% Fe₂O₃, 6.76% TiO₂, 0.417% V₂O₅ Top 8 intercepts from the MRE Drill Program can be found in Table 3 below.Completed twenty-one (21) holes (R-0016 to R-0036) to date in 2026, with significant oxide intercepts including 154.77 m (R-0026) and 151.41 m (R-0032), predominantly semi-massive oxide with extensive rhythmic layering.Multiple holes intercepted broad zones of semi-massive oxide up to 87.08 m, confirming increased oxide concentration and thickness in Trapper South.Rhythmic banding and semi-massive to massive oxide mineralization observed consistently, aligning with prior high-grade results from Trapper North.Drilling is progressing efficiently, with 4,492 m already completed in 2026. Hole R-0037 is in progress.Impact ...
