[{"type":"text","content":"Drilling Underway at K2 Gold's Si2 Project in NevadaVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 22, 2026) - K2 Gold Corporation (TSXV: KTO) (OTCQB: KTGDF) (FSE: 23K) (\"K2\" or the \"Company\") today announced that drilling is now underway at its 100%-owned Si2 Gold Project, located approximately 59 kilometers west of Tonopah, Nevada, in the prolific Walker Lane Trend.This drill program represents the culmination of significant technical studies and reinterpretation at Si2. The project is now understood to be an intact low-sulphidation epithermal gold system, with prior drilling having tested only the shallow upper expression. For the first time, K2 is drilling high-priority targets at depth, where stronger gold mineralization is commonly developed in epithermal systems.Figure 1: RC drill rig setup at first drill pad at Si2.

We are now drilling the most compelling targets identified to date- testing both previously undrilled structures and the depths where our studies indicate the most productive levels of the Si2 epithermal system should lie. Si2 gives K2 a second, high-conviction discovery opportunity in one of the most proven gold districts in the U.S.A.\"Key Drivers Behind the Si2 Drill ProgramDiligent scientific and technical studies reveal untapped potential.First-ever testing of newly defined, deeper structural targets property-wide.Si2 exhibits many similar characteristics to AngloGold Ashanti's Arthur Project (previously named Silicon)1The right address: located in the prolific Walker Lane of Nevada - host to several world-class epithermal systems.2Establishes Si2 as a near-term discovery catalyst, alongside the Company's flagship Mojave Project.Qualified Person (\"QP\") and QA/QCThe technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with Canadian regulatory requirements set out in NI 43-101 and reviewed and approved by Eric Buitenhuis, M.Sc., P.Geo., K2's QP and Vice President of Exploration.
