Intercepts Including 58.33% Fe₂O₃, 8.78% TiO₂, 0.415%

V₂O₅ from 2026 Drilling at Trapper South, Radar Critical

Minerals Project in Labrador

VANCOUVER, B.C. – June 11, 2026 – SAGA Metals Corp. ("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- 0044, -0045 and -0046

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.

The Trapper Zone forms part of an oxide corridor that includes the Falcon and Hawkeye Zones

spanning 29 square kilometres near the center of the Property.

Table 1: MRE drill program assay intercepts previously reported in Q4 2025 and 2026 to date from drill holes

R-0008 to R-0043.

• Top 15 intercepts from the MRE Drill Program to date can be found in Table 4 below.

• Completed fifty (50) holes (R-0008 to R-0057) from Q4 2025 to date in 2026, with significant

oxide intercepts including 202.3 m from R-0053 (true thickness of 132.1) of semi-massive

oxide with extensive rhythmic oxide layering.

• MRE drilling to date has returned multiple holes of thick oxide core intercepts exceeding 70–

144 metres and certain assay intervals frequently above 45–58% Fe₂O₃, 6–8% TiO₂ and 0.37-

0.44% V₂O₅.

• Rhythmic banding and semi -massive to massive oxide mineralization are observed

consistently in Trapper South, aligning with prior high-grade results from Trapper North.

• Drilling is progressing efficiently, with 11,600 m completed in the Trapper Zone to date.

• Confirmed 29 km2 central oxide corridor

• Excellent core recovery and representative sampling support ongoing metallurgical test work

and the advancement of the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate.

Michael Garagan, CGO & Director of SAGA Metals, commented:

“These latest results from holes R -0044 through R -0046 continue to demonstrate the impressive

scale and continuity of the oxide system at Trapper South. Hole R-0046 in particular was a standout,

stretching a full 490.1 m (over 1,600 feet ) and reaching 280 m vertical depth while returning broad

zones of strong oxide mineralization, including over 100 m of higher-grade material averaging 7.35%

TiO₂ and 0.388% V₂O₅.

Holes R-0044 and R-0045 further reinforce the consistency we’re seeing across the Trapper Zone,

with thick intercepts of rhythmic oxide layering and semi -massive mineralization. The ability to

repeatedly intersect wide zones of oxide mineralization with high grades across multiple sections

speaks to the robustness of this system. These results continue to build our confidence as we

advance toward a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate at Radar. ”

which depict the oxide mineralization in cross sections S 6 and S8. True thickness represents the

perpendicular width of the mineralized zone, while the total downhole oxide represents the length of the

mineralization intercepted downhole.
