Sitka intersects multiple occurrences of visible gold

Highlights

• DDRCCC-25-075 (Hole 75) was drilled to a length of 715.97 m to test depth continuity of Blackjack gold mineralisation and encountered over 130 instances of visible gold.
• Hole 75 confirms strong gold mineralisation extends approximately 70 m northeast from Hole 68.
• Hole 75 is the first hole to be completed as part of Sitka’s fully funded 30 000 m drill programme planned for 2025, the largest drill program ever conducted at RC Gold.
• DDRCCC-25-076, currently in progress, is designed to test gold mineralisation at deeper depths than any previous drilling.

Cor Coe, Director and CEO of Sitka Gold Corp., said:

“The 2025 drilling campaign at RC Gold is off to a remarkable start with the first drill hole of the year returning a multitude of visual gold occurrences. Hole 75 was located to follow-up on the strong results of Hole 68 which intersected 678.1 m of 1.04 g/t gold including 93.0 m grading 2.57 g/t gold starting at 589.5 m, the deepest and longest intersection of gold mineralisation to date at the Blackjack deposit which remains open in all directions.

“The increasing grades at depth in Hole 68 suggest that drilling is vectoring towards the source of this impressive gold system and initial observations of Hole 75 confirm that strong gold mineralisation persists at least 70 m northeast of the high-grade intervals returned in Hole 68. We eagerly await the results from Hole 75 which will aid in further understanding the dimensions of the Blackjack zone at depth where higher gold grades may support a potential underground mining operation below the limits of the recently announced pit constrained resource of 1 291 000 oz of gold grading 1.01 g/t gold in an indicated category and 1 044 000 oz of gold grading 0.94 g/t gold in an inferred category at Blackjack. DDRCCC-25-076, currently in progress, is now being drilled from the same pad at a steeper angle than Hole 75 and is designed to test the Blackjack zone to even deeper depths than previous drilling.”
