RC Gold Project Drilling Confirms Higher Grade Mineralization

VANCOUVER - Sitka Gold Corp. reported on its ongoing 2025 diamond drilling campaign at its road accessible RC Gold Project located approximately 100 km east of Dawson City in Yukon's prolific Tombstone Gold Belt. Results from DDRCCC-25-076 (Hole 76) returned 94.0 m of 1.15 g/t gold including 12.2 m of 4.55 g/t gold, and a separate interval of 25.0 m of 5.04 g/t gold, including 1.8 metres of 54.70 g/t gold within 86.4 m of 1.65 g/t gold. Drilling is currently underway at the Blackjack zone and up to 3 additional drill rigs are expected to begin turning in the coming weeks as part of a fully funded 30,000 metre diamond drilling program planned for 2025.

"The results from Hole 76 are very encouraging, confirming that the higher-grade gold mineralization intersected at depth in Holes 68 and 75 extends both laterally and to depth and could represent a large, continuous zone of significant tonnage," said Cor Coe, Director and CEO of Sitka Gold. "While Hole 76 was the deepest drill hole completed to date at RC Gold, with a length of 810.8 metres, assays from the bottom of the hole returned strong gold values within mineralized metasediments, indicating that gold mineralization likely extends even deeper. We are now extending Hole 76 further into the depths of this gold system to continue tracking this promising high-grade gold zone as we push towards what could be the source of the Blackjack gold deposit. With a fully funded 30,000 metre diamond drill program currently underway, which will more than double the total amount of our drilling completed at RC Gold to date, we're excited to test the depth potential of this impressive gold system and to begin exploring several other high-priority targets across the Clear Creek Intrusive Complex."

Drill hole DDRCCC-25-076 was drilled to a length of 810.8 m at an azimuth of -37o and a dip of -75o to step out from the high grade mineralization intersected in hole DDRCCC-25-075 which intersected 352.8 m of 1.55 g/t gold from 341.5 m including 108.9 m of 3.27 g/t gold and 45.0 m of 4.52 g/t gold. Hole 076 intersected several narrower zones of well-mineralized quartz monzonite cutting broad zones of altered metasediments along with several broad structural zone within the metasediments containing abundant cm-scale sheeted quartz veins with multiple occurrences (over 60) of visible gold. Hole 076 ended in 4.8 m of 0.86 g/t gold in sheeted veins cutting metasediments.
