[{"type":"text","content":"Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 18, 2025) - Sitka Gold Corp. (TSXV: SIG) (FSE: 1RF) (OTCQB: SITKF) ("Sitka" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a contract with Kluane Drilling Ltd. to complete up to 60,000 metres of diamond drilling in 2026 at its flagship RC Gold Project ("RC Gold" or the "Project") located in the prolific Tombstone Gold Belt in the Yukon. This will be the largest drilling campaign ever conducted at RC Gold, effectively doubling the total metres drilled at the Project since Sitka's first drilling program launched in 2020. Drilling in 2026 is designed to demonstrate the RC Gold Project is host to multiple gold deposits within the Clear Creek Intrusive Complex (CCIC; see Figure 2) and has the potential to develop into a significant new mining district. A large portion of the drilling next year will focus on the Rhosgobel target where the discovery drill program in 2025 has demonstrated the potential for a multi-million ounce intrusion related gold deposit. Drilling will also focus on the Blackjack and Eiger gold deposit areas, both of which remain open for expansion of near surface resources and where recent drilling has intersected higher-grade mineralization at depth, highlighting the potential for underground resources. Drilling will also continue at numerous other targets within the CCIC that have had successful initial drill programs that have intersected intrusion related gold mineralization with significant gold results in addition to other targets identified elsewhere within the district-scale, 431 square kilometre road accessible property (see Figures 1 and 2).","length":1709,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"Kluane Drilling Ltd., a well established, highly experienced local drilling company based in Whitehorse, Yukon with over 30 years of experience diamond drilling in the Yukon and around the world, has been contracted to complete up to 60,000 metres of drilling at the Company's flagship RC Gold Project.
