Drilling Identifies Extensive Intervals Of Carlin-Type Alteration And Mineralization

VANCOUVER – Sitka Gold Corp. reported that the 2023 drill program has been completed at its Alpha Gold Property located at the southeast end of the Cortez Trend.  A total of 1027.3m was drilled in four holes.  All four drill holes encountered significant intercepts of strong alteration and mineralization consistent with known Carlin-type gold deposits.

“We are extremely encouraged with what has been observed in this round of drilling at Alpha, with all four drill holes intercepting extensive intervals of stronger Carlin-type alteration and mineralization than the holes being offset”, said, Cor Coe, P.Geo, Director and CEO. “These drill holes have substantially increased our confidence in the current geologic model that suggests the targeted hingeline zone is the most probable location to host peak gold grades within this system. This model should be broadly applicable along the entire 7.5 km NNW anticline target trend located on the Property, providing the ideal framework for the discovery of a large-scale, multi-million ounce, Carlin-type gold deposit at a minable depth. We look forward to announcing the results from these drill holes once they have been received and compiled.”
