120 Days Until the Next Critical Mineral Catalyst

New DFARS rules ban Chinese critical minerals from U.S. defense systems.¹

As the Pentagon races to secure defense materials, SAGA Metals Corp. (OTCQB: SAGMF, TSX-V: SAGA) is advancing North American titanium and heavy rare earth projects.

Strategic Critical Minerals Portfolio
Five projects. Six critical minerals. Exposure to the supply chains powering defense, AI, manufacturing and energy security.
Approaching A Defining Milestone
With the first mineral resource estimate expected in Q4, the Radar project is nearing its most important catalyst to date.
100% Drilling Success
More than 23,000m of drilling completed at Radar – with every hole intersecting titanium-vanadium mineralization.

Every fighter jet. Every missile. Every military drone. Every radar system. Before they’re assembled, they begin the same way – as minerals pulled from the ground.

For decades, the United States outsourced much of that supply chain while China built an overwhelming advantage in the mining, processing, and refining of many strategic materials.²

Efficiency, not security, shaped the global critical mineral supply chain.

Production migrated overseas. Processing concentrated in China. Western manufacturers became increasingly dependent on foreign sources.³

Beginning January 1, 2027, the rules change.

Under new Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) requirements, the Department of Defense will significantly tighten restrictions on materials from foreign adversaries.⁴

The response has been swift, with Washington committing billions to reshore critical mineral mining and processing.⁵ A long-overdue effort to reverse decades of erosion across North American supply chains.

Meanwhile defense contractors are racing to secure North American sources before new procurement restrictions take effect.

In early 2025, the Department of Defense awarded up to $47.1 million to IperionX to accelerate development of an integrated U.S. titanium supply chain.⁶
Months later, the Department of Defense invested $400 million in MP Materials to expand domestic rare earth processing and magnet manufacturing, becoming the company’s largest shareholder.⁷
More recently, the White House announced a $1.6 billion debt-and-equity investment package for USA Rare Earth through the CHIPS Act program.⁸

Securing North America’s critical mineral supply chain has become a major policy objective, and investors are paying attention.

Following major government investments, companies IperionX, MP Materials, and USA Rare Earths attracted substantial market interest – clear illustrations of how quickly valuations can change when strategic assets become national priorities.

IperionX soared 130% in less than one year, from February 17, 2025 to January 19, 2026.⁹

MP Materials more than doubled over the course of 3 months, from July 10 to October 10, 2025.¹⁰

USA Rare Earths shot up 108% in less than 30 days leading up to the formal announcement on January 26, 2026.¹¹

Not surprisingly, titanium and heavy rare earths appear to be active targets of the Pentagon.

Titanium provides the strength, durability, and heat resistance required for advanced aircraft, naval vessels, satellites, and missile systems.¹²

Heavy rare earths help produce the permanent magnets that power precision-guided weapons, radar systems, robotics, and next-generation defense technologies.¹³

And defense is only one piece of the story. Nearly every major industrial trend reshaping the global economy depends on the same strategic materials.

Artificial intelligence, data centers, robotics, grid modernization, aerospace, and electrification are all expected to drive long-term demand.

The global titanium market is projected to grow from $2.9 billion in 2026 to $3.7 billion by 2030,¹⁴ while the rare earth market is expected to expand from $4.2 billion to $6.3 billion over the same period.¹⁵

As demand grows, investor attention is increasingly shifting upstream. The early-stage projects that could one day supply the next generation of critical minerals are coming into focus.

Every processing facility, magnet plant, and defense supplier ultimately depends on a pipeline of new discoveries. That’s the opportunity SAGA Metals is pursuing.

SAGA Metals (OTCQB: SAGMF, TSX-V: SAGA) is advancing North American projects targeting titanium, heavy rare earths, vanadium, uranium, lithium, and iron at a time when rebuilding domestic critical mineral supply has become a core policy objective.

After an aggressive 2026 campaign at its 100%-owned Radar Titanium-Vanadium-Iron Project in Labrador, the company’s maiden mineral resource drilling is now complete.

That makes the timing particularly important.

Until now, Radar has been valued as an exploration-stage discovery. SAGA’s first mineral resource estimate could offer a new basis for institutions, governments, and strategic corporations to assess the project’s scale and potential.

A Blueprint for World-Class Titanium Supply

When it comes to defense and aerospace, few materials are more essential than titanium. Yet despite its strategic importance, the domestic supply chain is deeply exposed. The United States currently imports 100% of its titanium sponge.¹⁶

And according to Project Blue, the West could be heading toward a supply crunch as geopolitical tensions reshape global trade.¹⁷

Russia continues to play a major role in aerospace-grade titanium, while China’s share of global titanium production has surged from roughly 40% in 2019 to more than 75% in 2025.¹⁸

That dependence has become difficult to ignore. Over the past five years, China has repeatedly demonstrated a willingness to weaponize exports of strategic materials.¹⁹

Washington has responded with Project Vault, a proposed strategic reserve backed by up to $12 billion in financing. Titanium and rare earths are among the minerals highlighted in this initiative.²⁰

Against this backdrop, SAGA Metals (OTCQB: SAGMF, TSX-V: SAGA) is advancing the Radar Titanium-Vanadium Project, one of a growing number of North American projects positioned to help strengthen domestic titanium supply.

Early geological work suggests Radar could host one of the larger emerging titanium systems in North America.

Located just 10 km from the coastal town of Cartwright, Radar covers more than 24,000 hectares within Labrador’s Grenville Geological Province.

Unlike many other critical mineral projects, Radar benefits from year-round road access, nearby hydroelectric power, a deep-water port, an airstrip, and an experienced local workforce. These advantages may significantly reduce exploration and development costs.

Airborne geophysics, over 23,000 meters of drilling, and all 92/92 drill holes hit oxide mineralization in multiple zones all validating Radar’s identified 29 km² central oxide corridor encompassing Trapper, Hawkeye and Falcon zones. That represents a 100% drilling success rate across the program to date.

And Radar offers another important advantage – the potential to produce titanium, vanadium, and iron from a single ore body.

SAGA’s technical team has drawn geological comparisons to China’s Panzhihua deposit, source of over 40% of global vanadium production.²¹

Unlike Panzhihua, Radar has thick layers of mineralization with true thicknesses reaching up to 340 meters wide and coarse-grained titanomagnetite indicative of potentially simplified processing of high-grade titanium dioxide and vanadium pentoxide. Initial metallurgical results from Radar’s Hawkeye zone achieved 0.9% vanadium pentoxide, rivaling that of Panzhihua’s 0.3%.

SAGA followed up this work with further metallurgical testing on representative samples from Trapper’s Mineral Resource Estimate zone achieving significant results from an independent Stage 1 metallurgical validation program using a proprietary Regenerative Chloride Leach technology.

The headline recoveries were:

Up to 90.8% titanium
Up to 97.4% vanadium
Up to 91.5% iron

More importantly, the Stage 1 program met its objectives and supported moving into a Detailed Bench Optimization Program, with the longer-term pathway contemplated by SAGA progressing toward pilot-scale demonstration and potential commercial deployment.

SAGA Metals (OTCQB: SAGMF, TSX-V: SAGA) has spent 2026 to date removing geological risk.

Over 23,000 meters of drilling with multiple holes intersecting more than 100m of continuous mineralization, including one approaching 163m in a single uninterrupted interval of correlated high-grade titanium, vanadium and iron.

Rather than isolated intercepts, the drilling is demonstrating what geologists typically look for when evaluating a future resource: continuity, thickness, and scale.

Radar is now approaching one of the two most important stages in the lifecycle of a project.

In mining, the Lassonde Curve points to resource definition as one of the first major inflection points following a discovery. It’s when exploration results begin turning into something more tangible — and key details that shape a project’s value start getting confirmed.

How large is the resource? Can it be economically recovered? Is it scalable? Answers to these questions could begin arriving over the coming months:

Q3 2026 – Radar Metallurgical Optimization Phase Completion
Q4 2026 – Radar Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE)
Q4 2026 – Radar Metallurgical Pilot Study Completion
Q2 2027 – Radar Demonstration Facility Assessment

These next few milestones could help provide institutions and investors with a clearer picture of Radar’s potential scale, economics, and path toward development.

A Second Supply Chain Catalyst Is Approaching

With China’s temporary export suspension set to expire in November, the rare earth market could soon face another pivotal chokepoint.²²

As the DFARS deadline draws closer, another countdown is already underway. China’s temporary suspension of its heavy rare earth export controls is scheduled to expire on November 10, 2026.²³

China still controls more than 90% of global rare earth processing capacity, giving Beijing enormous influence over one of the world’s most important industrial supply chains.²⁴

If export restrictions return, manufacturers across the West could face shortages of the materials needed to produce high-performance permanent magnets.

Military demand is a primary driver, with U.S. defense spending to exceed $1.5 trillion annually.²⁵ An F-35 fighter contains more than 900 pounds of rare earth materials, while a Virginia-class submarine requires approximately 9,200 pounds.²⁶

But now the market is being strained by another powerful force. Artificial intelligence.

Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Meta are collectively investing hundreds of billions of dollars into AI infrastructure that depends on high-performance permanent magnets.²⁷ Every major tech company is competing for the same materials.

Even CEO Jensen Huang reportedly traveled to Beijing as supply concerns intensified to help secure NVIDIA’s access to critical inputs.²⁸

Then there’s robotics, data centers, energy infrastructure, advanced manufacturing. Each is dependent on the same heavy rare earth magnets.²⁹

But here’s an important distinction. Not all rare earth deposits are created equal. Many projects are dominated by light rare earth elements – the kind used in consumer electronics and appliances.

It’s the heavy rare earths, dysprosium and terbium, that are needed for the high-performance magnets used in mission-critical technologies like defense and AI. They also remain among the materials China controls most tightly.

Even MP Materials, the flagship of America’s domestic rare earth industry, is primarily a light rare earth producer. According to Reuters, medium and heavy rare earths account for less than 1.8% of its deposit.³⁰

That explains the growing interest in SAGA Metals’ (OTCQB: SAGMF, TSX-V: SAGA) Wolverine heavy rare earth project.

Early geological work suggests Wolverine is unusually enriched in heavy rare earth elements, accounting for approximately 24–28% of total rare earth oxide content.

Wolverine is located within a mineral-rich belt spanning Labrador and Greenland, home to several of the world’s best-known rare earth discoveries, including Critical Metals Corp.’s Tanbreez project.

Previous operators also completed extensive geological mapping, geophysics, surface sampling, and more than 160 km of LiDAR surveying, providing SAGA with a strong technical foundation before drilling even begins.

Across its 294 km² land package, Wolverine hosts an exposed mineralized footprint measuring roughly 26 km² at surface. More than twice the surface footprint of nearby Tanbreez.

SAGA completed its acquisition of Wolverine in July 2026, securing 100% ownership with no underlying royalty. Crews and drilling equipment have mobilized to site.

The next milestone is a 4,000 to 5,000m diamond drill program that will build on previous drill results, testing the scale and continuity of the mineralized system and lay the groundwork for resource definition.

The months ahead should provide the market’s first real look at Wolverine’s long-term potential.

Building a Broad Critical Minerals Platform

SAGA Metals (OTCQB: SAGMF, TSX-V: SAGA) has assembled a diverse portfolio of assets spanning titanium, heavy rare earths, vanadium, lithium, uranium and iron. Each are tied to long-term trends reshaping North American supply chains.

While the company’s current focus is on advancing Radar and Wolverine, these projects offer exposure to other strategic markets.

SAGA’s Legacy Lithium Project covers more than 72,000 hectares in Quebec’s prolific James Bay district, one of Canada’s premier lithium exploration regions.

Located along strike from major discoveries held by Winsome Resources, Azimut Exploration, and Loyal Lithium, the Legacy project is subject to a strategic partnership with Rio Tinto.

The project also shares the same structural corridor as Rio Tinto’s own exploration efforts in the region, offering a compelling platform for further development.

The Double Mer Uranium Project adds another strategic commodity to SAGA’s portfolio.

The 25,600-hectare property hosts an 18-km uranium trend identified through prior exploration. Surface sampling and radiometric surveys continue to support the project’s exploration potential.

With nuclear energy expected to play an important role in AI infrastructure, uranium is another strategic market where SAGA holds long-term exposure.

Following SAGA’s partnership with Rio Tinto, the Company walked away with the Garneau Titanium Project in Quebec. A project spanning 6,450 hectares positioned within the Havre-Saint-Pierre Anorthosite Complex and just 80 km north of Rio Tinto’s own Lac Tio Titanium Mine.

As the company’s project portfolio has expanded, management has also become more deliberate about where it deploys capital. Rather than attempting to advance every project under one corporate structure, SAGA announced plans to sell its North Wind Iron Ore Project into a company focused on building a significant iron complex in the iron rich Labrador Trough.

The move allows management to concentrate its capital on Radar and Wolverine, while preserving shareholder exposure to the iron project.

It’s a disciplined approach that balances diversification with a clear focus on the projects expected to drive the company’s next stage of growth.

Multiple Catalysts Lie Ahead

Over the next twelve months, investors can expect several significant milestones:

Q3 2026 – Results From Wolverine Maiden Drill Program
Q3 2026 – Radar Metallurgical Optimization Phase Completion
Q4 2026 – Radar Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate
Q4 2026 – Radar Metallurgical Pilot Study Completion
Q2 2027 – Radar Demonstration Facility Assessment

From Discovery To Execution

Identifying promising projects is the first step. Creating value from them requires disciplined exploration, technical execution, and access to capital.

As SAGA Metals advances Radar toward a maiden resource estimate and begins drilling at Wolverine, the company is led by a team with experience spanning capital markets and project development.
