Sitka Gold Corp. (TSXV:SIG | FSE:1RF | OTCQB:SITKF) has announced multiple instances of visible gold in the first drill holes of the summer field season at their flagship RC Gold Project in Yukon, Canada. The fully funded, 30,000m drill programme has three drills operating and a fourth one on-site, with a primary focus on expanding the Blackjack and Eiger gold deposits, while also advancing several other high-priority gold targets.
The first holes completed during this summer season have shown visible gold, including in the drill core from DDRCCC-25-076 to 080. DDRCCC-25-078 and079 have produced the first visible gold ever observed at Eiger. Assays are pending for all remaining drill holes.
Commenting on these results, Cor Coe, Director and CEO of Sitka Gold noted, “The summer field season at RC Gold is off to a strong start, with three drill rigs already turning and a fourth rig recently mobilized to site. The presence of visible gold in the first holes of the season, including the first-ever observations of visible gold at the Eiger deposit expansion drilling, continue to demonstrate the exceptional gold endowment within the Clear Creek Intrusive Complex. This is the first follow up drilling we have conducted at the Eiger deposit since 2021 and the observations of visible gold in these initial step out holes to the west, towards the Saddle zone and Blackjack deposit, are very encouraging.
“The fully funded, 30,000 metre drill campaign planned for this year will more than double the total drilling completed since we initiated drilling in 2020, marking a major step forward in advancing RC Gold. To date, we’ve successfully discovered two gold deposits and outlined multiple high-priority targets ready for drill advancement. With this year’s planned drilling equivalent to the past five years combined, there will be lots to look forward to as our team pushes to build on that success with additional new discoveries and meaningful expansion of our known deposits, both of which remain open in all directions.”
