Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 15, 2024) - Sitka Gold Corp. (TSXV: SIG) (FSE: 1RF) (OTCQB: SITKF) ("Sitka" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that visible gold has been observed multiple times in recently completed diamond drilling currently underway at the southern extent of the Blackjack Zone at the Company's flagship RC Gold Project ("RC Gold" or the "Project") in Yukon, Canada. Visible gold within metasediments intruded by multiple megacrystic quartz monzonite dykes was observed numerous times in DDRCCC-24-061 (Hole 61) and in DDRCCC-24-062 (Hole 62) which were drilled to a depth of 411.5 metres and 530.0 metres respectively. Drilling at DDRCCC-24-063 is currently underway and is an additional 100 m step out south from Hole 62 to test the projection of higher-grade gold mineralization along the newly identified Blackjack Mineralized Corridor south of the Blackjack gold deposit (see Figure 2). Six drill holes totalling 2,636 metres have been completed to date this year and a second drill rig has been mobilized to the Project site in anticipation of drill testing additional high-priority targets within the recently consolidated Clear Creek Intrusive Complex (Figure 2) along with other drill ready targets located across the 431 square kilometre, road accessible Project this summer.
