May 28, 2026, Vancouver, BC, Canada – SKY GOLD CORP. ("Sky" or the "Company") (TSX.V:SKYG) (US:SRKZF) is pleased to present a drilling update on its 100%-owned Evening Star Project in Walker Lane Gold Trend, Nevada.
The diamond core drilling program by Titan Drilling is now completed, and 768 meters (2,519.5 feet) were drilled across 4 holes. Two holes were drilled into the High Life porphyry target, one into the CRD Hill target, and one hole at Gold Bug.
The drill core from all 4 holes is deeply weathered and oxidized. All drill core samples have now been processed and shipped to the laboratory for gold and multi-element analysis. Assays are pending.
Gold and multi-element results from surface sampling at Evening Star are incoming and those results will be released shortly.
"This drill program was challenging but we look forward to receiving assays to best determine the next steps at Evening Star," commented Mike England, CEO of Sky Gold Corp. "The extent of surface mineralization is very impressive, and we continue to learn from each surface and drill program performed."
QA/QC and Sample Methodology
The Company submits rock and drill core samples MSA Labs in Elko, Nevada, for gold content by Chrysos PhotonAssayTM technology. This process is non-destructive and analyzes 500-gram samples, which is more representative than the 50-gram sample required for Fire Assay method and this innovative method catches more gold in the sample, reducing the nugget effect.
Samples are dried and crushed to P80 minus 2mm, and 500 grams is riffle split for PhotonAssayTM method. Another 250 grams of the crushed material is pulverized to P85 minus 75 microns for ultra-trace 48 elements by ICP-MS following a 4-acid digest.
Every 15 samples, one of each, a duplicate, blank or certified reference standard material, is inserted into the sample stream to check the lab for consistency or potential contamination between samples. All QA/QC samples are inserted in the field by Company geologists.
