Sitka Gold Corp. (TSX-V: SIG; FSE: 1RF; OTCQB: SITKF) has delivered another strong set of drill results from its RC Gold Project in Yukon’s Tombstone Gold Belt. The company is steadily expanding the scale of its Rhosgobel discovery, where broad intervals of gold mineralization starting at surface are pointing to the potential emergence of a significant new gold camp.
The latest assay results confirm significant mineralization from surface to depth. Drill hole DDRCRG-25-007 intersected 162.0 meters grading 1.02 g/t gold, including a higher-grade interval of 71.0 meters at 1.57 g/t and 18.0 meters at 2.31 g/t. A second drill hole, DDRCRG-25-008, returned 168.0 meters grading 1.00 g/t gold, including 12.0 meters grading 2.37 g/t gold from a depth of 28.0 meters.
With visible gold logged in 31 of 34 holes so far, the system has been traced for more than 1.1 kilometres along strike and beyond 400 metres in depth. Mineralization remains open in all directions.

While drilling to date has focused only on the core of this target area, geochemical soil sample results show a strong correlation with in-situ gold mineralization at Rhosgobel.
A Gold Deposit of Regional Significance
Drilling across the RC Gold Project has now surpassed the season’s 30,000-metre target, with 30,478 metres completed in 84 holes. At Rhosgobel alone, 38 holes totalling approximately 11,375 metres have been drilled. Two rigs remain active, with results pending from 50 holes, including 26 from Rhosgobel. The discovery is part of the larger Clear Creek Intrusive Complex, which also hosts additional targets such as Blackjack, Saddle, Eiger, Pukelman, Contact and Bear Paw. The district-scale land package covers a seven-kilometre trend and is entirely road accessible.

Sitka CEO Highlights Discovery Potential
Cor Coe, Director and CEO of Sitka Gold, stated: “The consistency and scale of the strong assay results from Rhosgobel are very encouraging, as every drill hole reported to date has delivered over 100 gram-meters of gold. Rhosgobel is showing the potential, in terms of size and grade, to host a significant multi-million ounce, intrusion-related gold deposit. These results, along with the over 30,000 meters of drilling completed across the district this year, underscore the RC Gold Project’s potential to become a significant new gold camp in Yukon.”
