SAGA METALS APPOINTS ACCOMPLISHED MINING EXECUTIVE PETER HOGENDOORN TO BOARD OF ADVISORS AND ENGAGES XANDER CAPITAL PARTNERS
Saga Metals Corp.
has appointed seasoned mining executive Peter Hogendoorn to its board of advisers, along with a key investor relations partnership aimed at elevating shareholder engagement and corporate visibility.
Appointment of Mr. Hogendoorn to board of advisers
With over three decades of experience, Mr. Hogendoorn has specialized in financing junior mining and technology companies in both public and private sectors. As the founder and owner of Wrenswood Capital Corp. for the past 20 years, he has focused on investing in and advising numerous start-ups and facilitating the revitalization of defunct operations. In 2012, he raised $16-million through a joint venture that financed the original Sage Plains potash discovery well, which is still regarded as the richest potash discovery well in history. In 2021, he founded Sage Potash Corp., of which he is currently CEO, where he has advanced permitting and engineering for initial production of 150,000 TPY, with state and private mineral leases of approximately 30,000 acres and BLM (Bureau of Land Management) prospecting permit applications on an additional 58,000 acres.
"We are thrilled to welcome Peter to Saga Metals' board of advisers, where his proven track record as a distinguished mining executive will significantly enhance our strategic vision,"
said Mike Stier, chief executive officer and 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. Such is the case for both titanium and potash with many starting to see the bull market opportunity ahead. Located in Labrador with proximal seaport access, I believe there exists an excellent opportunity to create important local jobs, and wealth creation as Saga strives to become a major producer of titanium and other strategic critical minerals."
Strategic IR engagement with Xander Capital Partners
The company is also pleased to announce that it has entered into an investor relations agreement dated June 30, 2025, with Xander Capital Partners Inc., pursuant to which Xander will provide investor relations and market consulting services for an initial period of 12 months, subject to extension by mutual agreement of both parties. The agreement can be terminated by giving 30 days of prior written notice of termination to the other party or by mutual written agreement of the parties.

Pursuant to the agreement, Xander will provide the following services to the company: brand awareness, introductions to mining industry partners, research analysts, investment bankers, advisers, potential board members and digital marketing professionals. The company will pay Xander a monthly cash fee of $10,000 (U.S.) as consideration for the services and 700,000 stock options, which options are exercisable for a period of two years from the date of grant and vest quarterly over a period of 12 months. The options were issued to Rob Guzman and James Hellwarth, both principals of Xander.
Xander Capital Partners is a leading investor relations firm with over 30 years of cumulative industry experience whose clientele has included public companies such as Alpha Lithium Corp. from inception in 2019 to the recent $300-million-plus buyout in 2023. Xander's engagement is expected to elevate the company's capital markets profile, ensuring that Saga's growth story reaches a broad and sophisticated investor base.
