Sterling Metals (OTCQB:SAGGF) has announced significant results from their final three diamond drill holes at the Soo Copper Project in Batchewana Bay, Ontario. The drilling program has revealed an extensive copper-molybdenum-silver-gold porphyry system with mineralization traced over 1km of strike length and 300m vertically from surface.
Key highlights include: Hole CH-25-01 intersected 107.5m grading 0.31% CuEq, including 30.3m at 0.74% CuEq. MJ-25-02 yielded 198m grading 0.30% CuEq, while MJ-25-03 produced 120m grading 0.30% CuEq. The strongest copper mineralization is associated with a 3-phase porphyry dyke swarm, with the system remaining open in all directions.
The company plans to initiate its next drill program within eight weeks, focusing on targeting high-grade copper zones within permeable rocks near the newly discovered GFP porphyry.
Sterling Metals Corp (TSXV:SAG, OTCQB:SAGGF) has launched its inaugural drill program at the Copper Road Project in Ontario. The fully funded program includes a minimum 2,000-metre diamond drilling campaign scheduled until April end, targeting four high-priority zones within a 2.5km x 1.5km x 1.5km area of the broader 30km-wide project.
The drilling program focuses on testing near-surface copper mineralization and its connection to a larger porphyry center. Key targets include the connection between Jogran Porphyry and Richards Breccia, near-surface mineralization north of these features, additional breccia and porphyry targets, and the surface expression area of the ZTEM anomaly. Historical drilling in the area has shown promising results, including intersections of 50.17m at 0.88% Cu and 38.6m at 1.06% Cu.
The company has also received a $200,000 grant from the Ontario Junior Exploration Program (OJEP) to support drilling operations. Additionally, Sterling has granted 2,430,000 stock options at $0.40 per common share with a two-year exercise period.
Sterling Metals Corp (TSXV:SAG, OTCQB:SAGGF) has announced a 10:1 share consolidation, reducing its outstanding common shares to approximately 24,838,793. The consolidation, approved by shareholders in July 2024, is expected to begin trading on TSX Venture Exchange around February 24, 2025.
The company has also provided a corporate update regarding its Copper Road Project. Following extensive fieldwork and an Induced Polarization survey announced in January 2025, Sterling has identified several high-priority drill targets. A minimum 2,000-meter diamond drilling program targeting copper porphyry potential is scheduled to commence in mid-March. Recent grab sample results have been processed to refine existing targets and guide future exploration efforts.
Sterling Metals (TSXV:SAG, OTCQB:SAGGF) has completed a significant 3D induced polarization and resistivity survey at its Copper Road Project in Ontario, Canada. The survey, covering a 5km by 3km area, has identified multiple high-priority, drill-ready targets.
Key findings include:
- Multiple chargeable bodies discovered at or near surface
- Resistivity low anomalies correlating with copper in historical drill holes
- A high-priority target area of approximately 2.5km x 1.5km x 1.5km identified
- Interconnected areas suggesting a large porphyry center at depth
The company is now designing its initial drill campaign to test near-surface copper zones potentially connected to a larger porphyry center. The survey results suggest multiple intrusive bodies with connections to larger porphyry centers at depth, enhancing the geological prospectivity of the area.
Sterling Metals has completed a 5km x 3km 3D Induced Polarization (IP) survey at the Copper Road Project, revealing new copper sulphide mineralization at surface. Key developments include: discovery of new outcrops southwest of Richards Breccia, collection of 134 total surface grab samples, and extension of the porphyry footprint from 2km to 3km. The company has identified massive sulphide veining and copper sulphides in collected samples, with 52 samples currently being analyzed in the lab.
A high-resolution drone magnetic survey is commencing, and comprehensive IP survey results are expected in December. The project area, situated between two past-producing mines, has never undergone systematic exploration below 200m depth despite positive historical drill results.
Sterling Metals reports high-grade discoveries from its Phase 1 campaign at the Copper Road Project in Ontario. Surface grab samples revealed values up to 15.90% copper and 4.84% molybdenum, with an average copper value of 1.96% across 31 samples. The exploration defined a 5x5km high-priority area, identifying a ~2km long footprint of significant porphyry mineralization. The company completed a 2024 soil sampling program collecting 1,822 samples, confirming strong copper-molybdenum anomalies. A 5km x 3km 3D IP survey is underway to guide drill targeting.

Sterling Metals Corp. (TSXV:SAG)(OTCQB:SAGGF) has provided an update on its Phase 1 exploration campaign at the Copper Road Project in Ontario, Canada. The company has identified multiple high-priority copper exploration zones using various techniques, including:
- Collection of 1,200 surface soil samples showing strong copper-molybdenum anomalies
- Inversion of a 3,777-line kilometer airborne magnetic survey
- Advanced modeling of historical airborne electromagnetic survey data
- Interpretation of a new 10cm resolution LiDAR survey
- Digitization of over 200,000 pages of historical documents
Early mapping has revealed numerous copper sulphide mineralization showings. The company is now focusing on pinpointing large-scale copper targets within the extensive mineralized area and advancing priority drill targets.
Sterling Metals has commenced its inaugural Phase 1 exploration campaign at the Copper Road Project, located 80km north of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. The 25,000ha project is a high-potential site for copper, molybdenum, silver, and gold.
Key activities completed by May and June include a 3,777-line kilometer airborne survey, property-wide physical testing, and a 5,000-sample surface program. The company aims to define targets for future drilling through advanced modeling of historical geophysical data, expected to complete in July.
Jeremy Niemi, SVP of Exploration, highlighted the geological potential of the site, emphasizing the integration of historical data with new geophysics and surface mapping methods. Sterling Metals aims to identify new high-chargeability zones and further define the mineralization at Copper Road.
