With projects like Pike Warden and Maude Lake showing high potential, Transition Metals Corp is dedicated to advancing its exploration efforts and business development program to drive growth and success.
Transition Metals Corp (TSXV: XTM) has reported significant drilling results from its Saturday Night Project near Thunder Bay, Ontario. The key highlight comes from hole SN-25-02, which intersected 14.00m grading 1.04 g/t PGEs (Au + Pt + Pd) with 0.19% Cu, including a higher-grade interval of 1.86m grading 2.55 g/t PGEs with 0.46% Cu.
The drilling program consisted of two holes totaling 1,417 metres, targeting the basal contact of the mineralized Saturday Night layered intrusion. Hole SN-25-02 was drilled as a 200m step-out from the previous discovery hole SN-16-01. A second hole, SN-25-03, was drilled 400m south and intersected a thicker sequence of rift-related intrusion, with results pending.
The geology, mineralization style, and geophysical characteristics are reportedly comparable to the Sunday Lake and Thunder Bay North deposits along the same trend, suggesting potential for a sizable mineralized system.
Transition Metals (TSXV: XTM) has secured exclusive rights to stake mining claims within the Dessert Lake Basin, a 713 square kilometer area located 80km west of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. The company has obtained permits providing exclusivity for up to four years.
The area represents a district-scale uranium opportunity, featuring geology analogous to the Athabasca Basin. The presence of the Wopmay Fault, a major crustal fault controlling root uranium occurrences along its length, enhances the project's potential. The company aims to evaluate the unconformity-controlled uranium potential in this Tier-1 jurisdiction.
Transition Metals (TSXV: XTM) has initiated its 2025 drilling program at the Saturday Night PGM Project near Thunder Bay, Ontario. The program includes two drill holes totaling approximately 1,500 metres to test the basal contact of the mineralized Saturday Night layered intrusion. 50% of the program cost ($200,000) will be funded through an Ontario Junior Exploration Program grant.
Previous drilling in 2016 yielded promising results, including 6.25 metres averaging 1.07g/t PGMs, with a higher-grade section of 4.0 g/t PGM and 0.56% Cu over 0.30 metres. The project is interpreted as an early Mid-Continental Rift intrusion, similar to other mineralized sites like Eagle Mine in Michigan and the Tamarack project in Minnesota.
Transition Metals (TSXV: XTM) has secured matching grant funding up to $200,000 under the Ontario Junior Exploration Program (OJEP) to resume drilling at its Saturday Night PGM discovery near Thunder Bay, Ontario. The company plans to mobilize drilling operations in early January 2025, targeting approximately 1,500 metres across a minimum of two holes.
The project's initial 2016 drilling revealed mineralization of 6.25 metres averaging 1.07g/t PGM's, including a higher-grade section of 4.0 g/t PGM and 0.56% Cu over 0.30 metres. Following a 2018 ground-based audio frequency magnetotelluric (AMT) survey and a 2023 airborne AMT survey, the company has identified new targetable features that may host thick intervals of high-grade PGM with Ni-Cu mineralization, similar to their nearby Sunday Lake deposit.

Transition Metals Corp. (TSXV: XTM) has provided an update on exploration work at its Pike Warden project in Yukon. Key highlights include:
- A ZTEM™ survey revealed a large conductivity anomaly at Copper Junction, coinciding with prospective alteration and copper mineralization
- Four new polymetallic showings discovered, with samples returning up to 1.04 g/t Au, 3.63% Cu, 1.37% Mo, 2.6% Zn, and 0.12% W
- 92% of collected samples contained elevated pathfinder elements, with 47% showing anomalous concentrations of key metals
- The Copper Junction area shows potential for a large-scale copper porphyry system
- The company is refining its geological model and preparing for potential drill testing
Transition Metals Corp. (TSXV: XTM) has completed a 650-line kilometre helicopter-borne ZTEM survey at its Pike Warden property in Yukon. The company has engaged Condor North Consulting ULC to interpret the results, which will be used to create 3-D subsurface resistivity and magnetic inversion models to prioritize prospective targets.
Additionally, Transition has initiated a field program focusing on four primary target areas with potential for economic polymetallic systems:
- ERT Zone: High sulphidation epithermal gold/silver mineralization
- Copper North, Silver Train, and Olympus zones: Potential copper porphyry systems
The field program includes detailed geological mapping and sample collection to assist in vectoring towards mineralization centers. Transition Metals aims to confirm and prioritize targets for a potential drilling program in the fall.
Transition Metals has initiated a Z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic (ZTEM) survey over its Pike Warden property in Yukon. This 650-line kilometer helicopter-borne survey, conducted by Geotech, uses deeply penetrating electromagnetic signatures to model geophysical properties. The data will help create 3D resistivity and magnetic inversion models, aiding the identification and prioritization of prospective targets. COO Greg Collins emphasized that the project has progressed significantly, showing strong indications of porphyry Cu-Au and epithermal mineralization. Preliminary data will be available shortly after the survey's completion, with final results expected within eight weeks, aiding further sampling and mapping activities.
Transition Metals announced promising results from its ongoing geological studies at the Pike Warden project in Yukon. Petrographic and geochemical analyses have confirmed the potential for porphyry-style copper-molybdenum mineralization. Key findings include high-temperature potassic alteration associated with higher-grade copper and significant trace element geochemistry supporting the presence of robust epithermal and porphyry-style alterations.
Additionally, the company received approval for up to $50,000 in grant funding from the Yukon Mineral Exploration Program for 2024-2025. Upcoming exploration plans include a Z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic (ZTEM) survey to identify prospective drill targets, with field activities commencing in July.
