Klondike Gold Announces 2026 Diamond Drilling
Program Underway to Update and Expand Gold Mineral
Resources
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada – Klondike Gold Corp. (TSX.V: KG; FRA: LBDP; OTCQB: KDKGF)
(“Klondike Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that its 2026 diamond drilling program has
commenced at the Company ’s 100% -owned Klondike District Proj ect, located in the Dawson mining
district of Yukon Territory, Canada.
The 2026 program is designed to support an updated and expanded gold mineral resource estimate1 based
upon the Company ’s initial 2022 mineral resource estimate (“MRE”). Drilling will fo cus on expanding
known mineralized zones, increasing resource confidence through infill drilling, and testing extensions of
near-surface gold mineralization along the Company’s extensive structural corridor.
The initial fully funded campaign is expected t o include approximately 8,000 metres of diamond drilling
across priority targets within the Company ’s flagship Lone Star and Stander Zone s, as well as adjacent
prospective areas, with completion anticipated by July 2026. An additional phase of up to 5,000 meters of
diamond drilling is planned later in the season following assessment of initial results.
The 2026 program builds on successful prior exploration campaigns that identified broad intervals of
orogenic style gold mineralization associated with quartz vein stockworks and altered host rocks.
“Our 2026 drilling campaign marks an important step toward advancing and growing the gold resources
outlined in the 2022 MRE,” said Peter Tallman, President and CEO of Klondike Gold Corp. “We believe
significant opportunities remain to expand mineralization along strike and at depth within the district-scale
property package, including follow-up on results from 137 additional drill holes totalling more than 19,000
meters reported subsequent to the 2022 resource esti mate. This program is designed to systematically
unlock additional value while advancing the project toward future development studies.”
In addition to resource expansion objectives, the program will gather geological, structural, and
metallurgical data intended to support future engineering and economic evaluations. Assay results from
the program are expected to be released on an ongoing basis throughout the 2026 exploration season.
The Klondike District Project covers a district-scale land package encompassing the entirety of the historic
Klondike Goldfields placer district where the Company has documented numerous gold showings and
related structures associated with a major orogenic-style gold mineralized system.
