Vancouver, British Columbia — January 6, 2026 — Leads & Copy — Sitka Gold Corp. (TSXV: SIG) (FSE: 1RF) (OTCQB: SITKF) has announced additional strong gold results from diamond drilling at its Rhosgobel discovery, part of the 100%-owned RC Gold Project in the Yukon’s Tombstone Gold Belt. Analytical results from drill holes DDRCRG-25-018 through DDRCRG-25-028 have expanded the known mineralized zone at Rhosgobel.
Highlights from the drilling include:
Hole DDRCRG-25-027: 156.9 meters of 1.00 g/t Au, including 94.0 meters of 1.41 g/t Au, 38.0 meters of 2.03 g/t Au, and 2.0 meters of 19.30 g/t Au.
Hole DDRCRG-25-024: 146.7 meters of 1.05 g/t Au, including 12.0 meters of 3.89 g/t Au and 3.0 meters of 8.67 g/t Au.
Hole DDRCRG-25-019: 110.0 meters of 1.01 g/t Au, within a larger interval of 126.0 meters of 0.93 g/t Au from the surface.
Drilling confirms gold mineralization along a 975-meter strike length, with visible gold observed within sheeted quartz veins across the 1.1 km strike length drilled in 2025. Assay results for the remaining 15 drill holes are pending. Tungsten mineralization continues to be observed in association with gold grades.
Cor Coe, CEO and Director of Sitka Gold, stated that the Rhosgobel discovery continues to impress, with drilling returning exceptional gold values from the surface and expanding the known strike of mineralization. He noted that drilling has confirmed a large zone of higher-grade gold mineralization starting at the surface across a 975-meter strike length, with 19 of 28 drill holes exceeding 100 gram-meters of gold.
Coe added that Rhosgobel is shaping up as one of the most significant new gold discoveries made in 2025. The company plans to compile and release the remaining 15 holes from Rhosgobel, along with the remaining drill holes from the Contact, Pukelman, and Bearpaw targets. Sitka plans to advance this emerging gold camp with up to 60,000 meters of fully-funded drilling planned for this year, focusing on expansion of known deposits and new discoveries within the district-scale RC Gold Project.
To date, 43 holes totaling 12,722 meters have been completed at Rhosgobel. All holes have intersected significant reduced intrusion-related gold style mineralization. Gold mineralization at Rhosgobel begins at the surface, extends to a depth of over 400 meters, and remains open in all directions. Nineteen of the first 28 diamond drill holes reported from Rhosgobel, including the two discovery holes drilled in 2024, have intersected >100 gram-metres gold (g/t Au*m). Assays are currently pending for the remaining 15 holes completed at Rhosgobel in 2025.
Tungsten mineralization continues to be observed at Rhosgobel, suggesting it could be an economic by-product of potential future production. The company has submitted additional samples from drill hole DDRCRG-25-004 for tungsten analysis.
Two holes drilled at the May-Qu target returned gold values of up to 2.0 meters of 0.70 g/t Au and elevated values for pathfinder elements arsenic and bismuth in MQ-25-002, suggesting that the mineralized system is strengthening in a southwest direction. Additional work is planned at May-Qu in 2026 to follow up on the anomalous 2025 results and test numerous other mineralized sites in the May-Qu area.
Sitka’s 100%-owned RC Gold Project consists of a 431 square kilometre contiguous district-scale land package located in the heart of Yukon’s Tombstone Gold Belt. The RC Gold Project has pit-constrained mineral resources that are contained in two zones: the Blackjack and Eiger gold deposits with 1,291,000 ounces of gold in 39,962,000 tonnes grading 1.01 g/t gold in an indicated category and 1,044,000 ounces of gold in 34,603,000 tonnes grading 0.94 g/t in an inferred category at Blackjack and 440,000 ounces of gold in 27,362,000 tonnes grading 0.50 g/t gold in an inferred category at Eiger.
The company has completed 165 diamond drill holes for a total of 59,770 meters across the Clear Creek Intrusive Complex (CCIC), and an additional 3 holes for 858 meters in the May-Qu Intrusion.
The company also reported results from the inaugural diamond drill program completed at its Coppermine River project located near Kugluktuk, Nunavut. Drilling results at Copper Leaf returned anomalous copper values and has not yet identified the source of mineralization found at surface. Assay results from the 2025 drilling campaign returned anomalous copper values in the core samples and have not yet identified the source of mineralization found at surface.
Sitka Gold will be attending and/or presenting at the following events: 3rd Annual Canadian Critical Minerals Opportunity Forum: New York, New York, January 21, 2026; Metals Investor Forum (MIF): Vancouver, BC: January 23 – 24, 2026; Vancouver Resource Investment Conference (VRIC): Vancouver, BC: January 25 – 26, 2026; AME Roundup: Vancouver, BC: January 26 – 29, 2026.
