Banyan Gold Continues to Intersect High-Grade Gold Mineralization in
Airstrip, Yukon, Canada
March 10, 2026, TSX-V: BYN
VANCOUVER, BC, March 10, 2026 - Banyan Gold Corp. (the "Company" or "Banyan")
(TSX-V: BYN) (OTCQB: BYAGF) is pleased to announce additional drill results with high-
grade gold (“Au”) mineralization in the Airstrip Deposit (“Airstrip”) at its AurMac Project
(“AurMac”), Yukon, Canada.
Airstrip Highlights:
• AX-25-708 – 1.49 g/t Au over 8.8 metres (“m”)*, 0.59 g/t Au over 50.1m, 0.62 g/t
Au over 28.6m, AND 6.80 g/t au over 9.3m* , within 3.66 g/t Au over 17.6m* ;
includes high-grade interval of 18.90 g/t Au over 0.4m*, 20.30 g/t Au over 0.3m,
and 35.98 g/t Au over 1.6m*
• AX-25-782 – 2.99 g/t Au over 5.7m including high-grade interval of 13.20 g/t Au
over 1.0m, AND 0.47 g/t Au over 32.8m;
• AX-25-784 – 1.27 g/t Au over 8.5m;
• AX-25-804 – 1.42 g/t Au over 3.7m, 1.79 g/t Au over 1.4m, and 1.94 g/t Au over
8.9m, all within 0.50 g/t Au over 102.7m.
*Note: some intervals for AX -25-708 previously reported in news release dated November 13, 2025 – portion of assays
were pending at the time
“These results indicate ongoing improvement in the continuity of high -grade gold
mineralization associated with skarn-style alteration within the Airstrip deposit,” said Tara
Christie, President and CEO. “With our exploration season underway with four drills
turning and a fifth set to begin shortly, we are confident that our 2026 drill program will be
transformative, building on the successful targeting of high-grade gold and silver achieved
in 2025.”
“Step out intersections at the edges of the conceptual pit, specifically AX-25-784 and AX-
25-804, demonstrate significant potential for converting a substantial portion of waste
blocks into ore in our upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate (“ MRE”) update and
extending the mineralized envelope ( see Figure 2),” stated Duncan Mackay, Vice
President of Exploration . “In 2025, 70 drillholes returned assays [from Airstrip]
successfully intersected strongly mineralized intervals. The high success rate of drilling
in Airstrip demonstrates the consistent nature of mineralization within the deposit, further
de-risking the project as we continue improving mineral domain continuity and expanding
2
the indicated resource footprint. There are results from 56 drill holes from the 2025
program pending.”

Figure 2: Cross-section 467000mE in Airstrip (See Figure 1). High-grade mineralization associated with calc-silicate
alteration in Cal 1 and Cal 2 (orange units above) indicates the potential for substantial waste block conversion and
extension of the mineralized envelope with continued drilling towards hole AX-25-807 (see news release dated
February 8, 2026).

mineralization hosts high-grade gold mineralization typical of the Airstrip Deposit (See Figure 2).

Figure 4: Cross-section 466775mE (See Figure 1) in Airstrip. High-grade gold mineralization intersected in AX-25-784
has potential to convert up-dip waste blocks in the Airstrip deposit and highlights the potential for near-surface high-
grade mineralization.

Figure 5: Cross-section 467875mE (See Figure 1) in Airstrip. High-grade gold mineralization intersected in AX-25-795
and -792 is situated in a 500m step-out from the main deposit area within a conceptual satellite pit. Domains
intersected here have potential to significantly expand the mineralized footprint of Airstrip as well as the potential to
convert up-dip waste blocks and highlight the potential for near-surface high-grade mineralization, warranting further
exploration along strike of the main deposit.
