“We are thrilled to welcome Peter to SAGA Metals’ board of advisors, where his proven track record as a distinguished mining executive will significantly enhance our strategic vision,” said Mike Stier, CEO & Director of SAGA Metals. “Peter’s extensive experience in driving successful mineral exploration and development aligns seamlessly with our mission to advance critical mineral projects, particularly our Radar Titanium project in Labrador.”
Mr. Hogendoorn commented: “I’m excited by SAGA’s team and vision for developing strategic critical minerals that are traditionally produced in foreign jurisdictions. This has resulted in an overleverage of import dependence on critical minerals in Western economies.
