White House provides Trump health update after MRI scan concerns swirled

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Wednesday that President Donald Trump ‘remains in exceptional physical health’ after concerns have swirled in recent months, including when the president received an MRI scan in October. 

‘As stated in the memo provided on October 10th, President Trump received advanced imaging at Walter Reed Medical Center as part of his routine physical examination,’ Leavitt said during Wednesday’s White House press briefing. ‘The full results were reviewed by attending radiologists and consultants, and all agreed that President Trump remains in exceptional physical health.’ 

The response followed a member of the media asking for additional details as to why Trump received an MRI during a checkup at Walter Reed National Military Center in Maryland in October. 

‘I got an MRI, it was perfect,’ Trump told reporters on Air Force One in October. 

‘I gave you the full results,’ he added. ‘We had an MRI, and the machine, you know, the whole thing, and it was perfect.’ 

The checkup in October has been described as routine by the administration, with Trump’s physician reporting that Trump is in ‘exceptional health.’ 

Media outlets and others have fanned the flames of concerns around Trump’s health earlier in 2025 when he was spotted with swollen legs in July while attending the FIFA Club World Cup final in New Jersey, as well as when other photos that same month showed him with bruises on his hands.

Leavitt said in July, while reading a health memo, that Trump’s swollen legs were part of a ‘benign and common condition’ for individuals older than age 70, while the bruising on his hands was attributable to ‘frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin.’

Navy Capt. Sean P. Barbabella, the physician to the president, wrote in a memorandum to Leavitt following the October checkup that the visit was part of an ongoing health maintenance plan that included ‘advanced imaging, laboratory testing and preventative health assessments conducted by multidisciplinary team of specialists.’

Barbabella said in his October summary that Trump, ‘remains in exceptional health, exhibiting strong cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurological, and physical performance.’ 

The checkup was Trump’s second in 2025, following an April visit that Barbabella said found Trump ‘remains in excellent health.’

Leavitt added Wednesday that Trump is slated to hold a dinner later that evening, which she said might include press attendance where the media could see Trump’s physical state themselves. 

‘I know all of you will see with your own eyes later this evening when he opens up his dinner to the press, and perhaps you will see him when he signs the bill to reopen the federal government,’ she said. ‘So stay tuned on plans for that.’

JD Vance hails Trump admin’s ‘bulldozer’ approach to public health, discusses how Appalachia was ‘left behind’

Vice President JD Vance praised President Donald Trump’s ‘bulldozer’ approach to public health, calling it a necessary force that ‘just had to happen,’ during remarks at Wednesday’s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) summit.

The summit, held at the Waldorf Astoria in Washington, D.C., was centered on Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s MAHA movement — aimed at improving nutrition, eliminating toxins, preserving natural habitats and fighting the chronic disease epidemic in the U.S.

‘That is a good summary of Donald J. Trump is that he takes a bulldozer to Overton windows every single day,’ Vance told the HHS secretary during the event. ‘It just had to happen… One of the criticisms that Bobby will always get, and I always think it’s such b——-, excuse my language… [is that] sometimes there’s this attack where people say that conclusion is not supported by the science, or this or that conclusion is a conspiracy theory.’

‘Science, as practiced in its best form, is that if you disagree with it, then you ought to criticize it, and you ought to argue against it. You can’t shut down the debate,’ Vance continued. ‘If you look at all the big public health debates that we’ve had in this country over the last 20 or 30 years… they tried to silence the people who were saying things that were outside the Overton window. As we found out the hard way over the last few years, it was very often that people who were outside the Overton window were actually right, and all the experts were wrong.’

Vance went on to say the country could not advance unless Americans become comfortable with people who are ‘willing to challenge orthodoxy.’

He also vowed to keep Appalachia in the forefront of the conversation, noting residents have higher premature mortality rates due to a long history of being failed by the public health system.

‘You know what really p—– people off — when they realize that their loved ones are dying much sooner than everybody else,’ said Vance, whose autobiography, ‘Hillbilly Elegy,’ details his own upbringing in Appalachia. ‘That is a big part of the story of what’s going on in Appalachia, and why I think so many people in Appalachia feel left behind.’

He described himself as ‘the golden boy’ of Appalachia, admitting he feels guilt about the many people who grew up in families like his and have not had an easy life or the same amount of economic opportunity.

‘That gives me a sense of purpose because I want those people to have the same opportunities that I’ve had,’ Vance said. ‘But it also gives me a great sense of anger, because we never should have gotten to the point that we are today. The reason that we have, is because of failed leadership over generations.’

When discussing the people of Appalachia, he said they are people who, ‘though they don’t have much, would take the shirt off their back and give it to a complete stranger, because that’s what you do.’

‘If you go back to America’s biggest wars — World War I, World War II, Vietnam — which were the counties that filled their draft quotas with volunteers instead of with draftees?’ Vance posed. ‘It’s very often the parts in deep Appalachia where you’ve got grinding poverty, but you’ve also got this incredible love of country.’

‘So if any place in this country deserves not to be left behind, it’s Appalachia… These are people who deserve to live better, healthier lives, but they really have been left behind by this country’s leadership,’ Vance added.

House advances bill to end government shutdown with hours until final vote

The record-breaking U.S. government shutdown appears to be on a path to finally ending after 43 days.

Federal funding legislation aimed at opening the government survived a key test vote in the House later Wednesday, teeing it up for final passage in a matter of hours.

That means the bill could hit President Donald Trump’s desk as soon as Wednesday night, likely ending what has been the longest shutdown in U.S. history.

The White House announced that Trump would sign the bill in a statement of administration policy obtained by Fox News Digital.

‘The Administration urges every Member of Congress to support this responsible, good faith product to finally put an end to the longest shutdown in history,’ the statement said.

The bill advanced through a procedural hurdle known as a rule vote, which is where lawmakers decide whether to allow legislation to get debated before a final vote on passage.

Rule votes generally fall along partisan lines and are not an indication of whether a bill will be bipartisan.

The vast majority of House Democrats still oppose the bill, but it’s possible that at least several moderates will defy their leaders to support it.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., reiterated to reporters hours before the vote that Democrats were frustrated the bill did not do anything about COVID-19 pandemic-era healthcare subsidies under Obamacare, also known as the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Those enhanced tax credits expire this year.

‘House Democrats are here on the Capitol steps to reiterate our strong opposition to this spending bill because it fails to address the Republican healthcare crisis, and it fails to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credit,’ Jeffries said.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., sounded optimistic in comments to reporters Wednesday morning ahead of the vote.

‘I wanted to come out and say that we believe the long national nightmare will be over tonight,’ Johnson said. ‘It was completely and utterly foolish and pointless in the end.’

Meanwhile, the shutdown’s effects on the country have grown more severe by the day.

Many of the thousands of air traffic controllers and Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agents who had to work without pay were forced to take second jobs, causing nationwide flight delays and cancellations amid staffing shortages at the country’s busiest airports. Millions of Americans who rely on federal benefits were also left in limbo as funding for critical government programs ran close to drying out.

At the heart of the issue was Democratic leaders’ refusal to back any funding bill that did not also extend the enhanced Obamacare subsidies. Democrats argued it was their best hope of preventing healthcare price hikes for Americans across the U.S.

Republicans agreed to hold conversations on reforming what they saw as a broken healthcare system, but they refused to pair any partisan priority with federal funding.

In the end, a compromise led by the Senate — which saw eight Democrats in the upper chamber join colleagues to pass the bill in a 60 to 40 vote — included a side deal guaranteeing the left a vote on extending the enhanced subsidies sometime in December.

Johnson has made no such promise in the House, however.

And the lack of a guarantee on extending those subsidies has angered progressives and Democratic leaders.

‘What were Republicans willing to give in the end, other more than a handshake deal to take a future vote on extending the healthcare subsidies?’ Rep. Shomari Figures, D-Ala., said Wednesday. ‘We all know that a future vote is the equivalent of asking two wolves and a chicken to vote on what’s for dinner. It is dead on arrival.’

The full House will now vote on the legislation during the 7 p.m. hour.

The bill kicks the current federal funding fight to Jan. 30, by which point House GOP leaders said they were confident they’ll finish work on a longer-term deal for fiscal year 2026.

‘There are nine remaining bills, and we’d like to get all of those done in the next few weeks. And, so, [House Appropriations Committee Chairman Tom Cole, R-Okla.] and his appropriators will be working overtime,’ House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., told Fox News Digital.

Asked if he thought they’d get it done by that date, Cole said, ‘I think we can.’

Congress sends bill ending longest government shutdown in history to Trump’s desk

A bill to end the record-breaking U.S. government shutdown is headed to President Donald Trump’s desk after more than 42 days.

Federal funding legislation aimed at opening the government passed in the House Wednesday evening, ending the weeks-long fiscal standoff that has largely paralyzed Congress since Oct. 1. Republicans on the House floor erupted in cheers when the bill prevailed while the majority of Democrats quietly exited the chamber.

The White House said Trump would sign the bill at 9:45 p.m. this evening.

Six Democrats voted with all but two Republicans to pass the bill with a 222 to 209 margin. The Democrats who voted in favor of the legislation are Reps. Tom Suozzi, D-N.Y., Henry Cuellar, D-Texas, Adam Gray, D-Calif., Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, D-Wash, and Don Davis, D-N.C.

When the House took its initial vote on federal funding legislation on Sept. 19, just one Democrat — Golden — voted with the GOP.

The vast majority of House Democrats opposed the bill, however, including their senior ranks.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., reiterated to reporters hours before the vote that Democrats were frustrated the bill did not do anything about COVID-19 pandemic-era healthcare subsidies under Obamacare, also known as the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Those enhanced tax credits expire this year.

‘House Democrats are here on the Capitol steps to reiterate our strong opposition to this spending bill because it fails to address the Republican healthcare crisis, and it fails to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credit,’ Jeffries said.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., sounded optimistic in comments to reporters Wednesday morning ahead of the vote, however.

‘I wanted to come out and say that we believe the long national nightmare will be over tonight,’ Johnson said. ‘It was completely and utterly foolish and pointless in the end.’

Some drama threatened to crack House GOP unity earlier in the day, however, as some Republicans in the lower chamber seethed over a last-minute provision added to the bill that allows senators whose communications were tapped during former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s probe to sue the federal government for $500,000 each.

Reps. Chip Roy, R-Texas, Austin Scott, R-Ga., and Morgan Griffith, W.Va., all shared concerns with the measure but said they would not extend the government shutdown over it.

Johnson appeared to placate their and others’ concerns, at least for now, with a promise to vote next week on separate legislation repealing that provision.

Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., told reporters he would vote against the bill over its inclusion, however.

‘I’m not voting to send Lindsey Graham half a million dollars,’ he told reporters.

He and Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., voted against the final bill, but their opposition was not enough to sink legislation.

Meanwhile, the shutdown’s effects on the country have grown more severe by the day.

Many of the thousands of air traffic controllers and Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agents who had to work without pay were forced to take second jobs, causing nationwide flight delays and cancellations amid staffing shortages at the country’s busiest airports. Millions of Americans who rely on federal benefits were also left in limbo as funding for critical government programs ran close to drying out.

At the heart of the issue was Democratic leaders’ refusal to back any funding bill that did not also extend the enhanced Obamacare subsidies. Democrats argued it was their best hope of preventing healthcare price hikes for Americans across the U.S.

Shomari Figures, D-Ala., said Wednesday. ‘We all know that a future vote is the equivalent of asking two wolves and a chicken to vote on what’s for dinner. It is dead on arrival.’

Republican Study Committee Chairman August Pfluger, R-Texas, criticized Democrats for prolonging the shutdown for little payoff.

‘They literally got absolutely nothing except for a total and complete surrender, that accomplished nothing more than hurting American families,’ he said.

The bill kicks the current federal funding fight to Jan. 30, by which point House GOP leaders said they were confident they’ll finish work on a longer-term deal for fiscal year 2026.

It also includes full-year federal spending for the Department of Agriculture, the legislative branch, and the Department of Veterans Affairs — three of 12 annual appropriations bills that Congress is tasked with passing annually.

‘There are nine remaining bills, and we’d like to get all of those done in the next few weeks. And, so, [House Appropriations Committee Chairman Tom Cole, R-Okla.] and his appropriators will be working overtime,’ House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La., told Fox News Digital.

Standard Uranium

Investor Insight

Standard Uranium offers high-grade uranium discovery potential in the Athabasca Basin. With a fully funded drill program scheduled for spring 2026 at its flagship Davidson River project, and joint ventures on other highly prospective projects, the company provides investors early stage exposure to the emerging nuclear energy market.

Overview

Standard Uranium (TSXV:STND,USOTC:STTDF,FRA:9SU0) is a uranium exploration and project generation company focused on advancing high-grade uranium discoveries within the world-famous Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, Canada.

With a mission to “supply the fuel for a clean energy future,” Standard Uranium is focused on discovering and developing basement-hosted and unconformity-related uranium deposits that can power the growth of nuclear energy. Its dual-track model combines aggressive exploration at its flagship Davidson River project with a robust project generator platform, advancing multiple projects through partnerships while generating non-dilutive cash flow in operator fees, share payments, and royalties.

With 13 projects totaling more than 235,000 acres, Standard Uranium offers investors exposure to both immediate discovery catalysts and long-term portfolio value. Its leadership team brings deep geological expertise and operational experience across the Athabasca Basin, complemented by disciplined capital management.

As global governments reaffirm nuclear energy’s role in achieving net-zero targets, Standard Uranium is positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for secure, high-grade uranium supply from Canada.

Company Highlights

  • Flagship Davidson River Project: Large-scale, high-priority exploration asset in the southwest Athabasca Basin, along trend from NexGen’s Arrow and Paladin Energy’s Triple R uranium deposits, positioned for a significant uranium discovery.
  • Extensive Portfolio in the Athabasca Basin: Over 235,000 acres (95,000+ hectares) across 13 projects in Canada’s premier uranium district, including active joint ventures at Sun Dog, Corvo, and Rocas.
  • Project Generator Model: Leverages strategic partnerships to fund exploration and generate cash flow while retaining upside through 25 percent ownership and a 2.5 percent net smelter return (NSR) royalty on joint-venture projects.
  • Fully Funded for Davidson River Drill Campaign: Financing completed to support 8,000 to 10,000 meters of drilling at Davidson River, planned for spring 2026.
  • Rocas Drill Program: The first-ever drill program to be conducted on Rocas will commence in winter 2026, comprising approximately 1,800 metres.
  • Corvo Drill Program: A skid-assisted diamond drill program totalling approximately 3,000 metres is planned for winter 2026, which will mark the first drill program on the Project in more than 40 years.
  • Riding the Nuclear Power Renaissance: Positioned to benefit from global decarbonization trends and a long-term rise in uranium demand.
  • Proven Team: Led by experienced geologists and exploration professionals with a track record of discoveries in the Athabasca Basin.

Key Projects

Davidson River Project

Located in the southwest Athabasca Basin, approximately 25 kilometres west of NexGen’s Arrow deposit and Paladin Energy’s Triple R deposit, the Davidson River project spans 30,737 hectares across 10 contiguous mineral claims. The property lies along the same structural trends that hosts these globally significant discoveries.

To date, Standard Uranium has drilled 16,561 metres across 39 holes, intersecting wide, graphitic-sulphidic shear zones, structural deformation, and alteration features characteristic of high-grade basement uranium systems. Recent multiphysics and machine learning-assisted surveys conducted in partnership with Fleet Space Technologies and GoldSpot Discoveries have provided new three-dimensional imaging of subsurface structures, identifying refined targets along the Warrior, Bronco and Thunderbird corridors.

The company is preparing for an 8,000 to 10,000-meter diamond drill campaign scheduled for spring 2026, marking its most comprehensive program to date. With modern targeting data and strong geological indicators, Davidson River represents the company’s clearest path to a transformational discovery in the southwest Athabasca Basin.

Sun Dog Project (JV)

Located in the northwestern Athabasca Basin near Uranium City, the Sun Dog project consists of nine mineral claims totaling 19,603 hectares. This highly prospective property sits in a historically productive uranium district that remains underexplored by modern methods.

Surface sampling has identified several uranium-rich showings, including modern grab samples returning grades up to 3.58 percent U₃O₈. The project’s targets are associated with structural intersections and alteration zones consistent with basement-hosted and unconformity-related uranium systems.

Standard Uranium has partnered with Aero Energy, under a three-year earn-in agreement, allowing Aero to acquire up to a 100 percent interest in the project. The partnership structure ensures ongoing advancement at Sun Dog with Standard Uranium retaining a 2.5 percent NSR royalty, providing continued exposure to discovery success without direct funding requirements.

Corvo Project (JV)

The Corvo project in the eastern Athabasca Basin covers 12,265 hectares and represents one of Standard Uranium’s most promising partner-funded assets. The project lies along three major magnetic low and EM conductor trends extending for nearly 29 kilometres of prospective strike length.

The project is currently being advanced under a joint venture with Aventis Energy, which is funding exploration work through a three-year earn-in agreement. Standard retains a 25 percent ownership interest and a 2.5 percent NSR, while acting as operator during the earn-in phase.

Historical drilling and sampling have confirmed uranium mineralization, including the “Manhattan” showing, where modern surface grab samples collected by the company in 2025 returned assays up to 8.10 percent U3O8. These results highlight the property’s potential to host near-surface, high-grade uranium deposits.

Rocas Project (JV)

The Rocas project, located in the southeastern Athabasca Basin region, lies approximately 75 km southwest of the Key Lake mine and mill and covers 4,002 hectares along a 7.5-km northeast-trending magnetic low and EM conductor corridor.

Surface exploration has confirmed uranium mineralization at outcrop, with historical grab samples grading up to 0.5 percent U₃O₈ across nearly 900 metres of strike length. Historical surveys have also identified lakebed geochemical anomalies and structural features that indicate potential zones of hydrothermal alteration, ideal settings for basement-hosted uranium deposits.

In 2025, Standard Uranium executed an option agreement with Collective Metals, granting the partner 75 percent earn-in over three years in exchange for staged cash payments, share issuances, and $4.5 million in exploration spending. Standard retains a 25 percent ownership interest and a 2.5 percent NSR, while acting as operator during the earn-in phase.

Eastern Athabasca Exploration Projects

Beyond its flagship and joint-venture assets, Standard Uranium holds eight additional exploration-stage properties across the eastern Athabasca Basin, including Ascent, Canary, Atlantic, Cable Bay, Ox Lake, Umbra, Brown Lake and Sable. Together, these projects cover over 43,000 hectares of highly prospective ground along established uranium trends near recent discoveries by Denison Mines and IsoEnergy.

These projects represent the company’s pipeline of future partnerships and discovery opportunities, ensuring consistent exploration activity across the Basin.

Sitka Drills 119.0 Metres of 1.01 g/t Gold from Surface, Including 10.7 Metres of 4.10 g/t Gold and 1.2 Metres of 24.8 g/t Gold, at the Contact Zone, Confirming Another near Surface Higher-Grade Gold Zone at Its RC Gold Project, Yukon

Sitka Gold Corp. (TSXV: SIG) (FSE: 1RF) (OTCQB: SITKF) (‘Sitka’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce analytical results for three diamond drill holes completed at the Contact Zone target located at its 100% owned, road accessible RC Gold Project (‘RC Gold’ or the ‘Project’) within the Yukon’s prolific Tombstone Gold Belt. DDRCCC-25-113 returned impressive results with up to 119.0 metres of 1.01 g/t gold returned from surface, including 10.7 m of 4.1 g/t gold and 1.2 metres of 24.8 g/t gold, confirming significant gold mineralization at the Contact Zone. Assays are currently pending for an additional three drill holes that were completed at Contact along with three holes that were completed at the adjoining Pukelman target (see Figures 2 and 3). Assays are also pending for an additional 46 diamond drill holes that have been completed across the Rhosgobel, Blackjack, Saddle, Eiger, Bear Paw and MayQu targets. Approximately 32,000 metres of diamond drilling has been completed across the RC Gold Project this year.

  • Sitka’s initial drilling at Contact returns >100 gram-metre (g/t*m) gold interval from surface, confirming the presence of significant gold mineralization
  • DDRCCC-25-113 intersected 119.0 metres of 1.01 g/t gold from surface, including 10.7 m of 4.1 g/t gold including 1.2 m of 24.8 g/t Au, and 1.2 m of 12.25 g/t Au
  • Historical drilling at Contact has returned significant high-grade gold intercepts including hole CC10-022 which intersected 1.5 m of 147.0 g/t Au located approximately 335 m east of hole DDRCCC-25-113 (see news release dated August 19, 2025; Figures 2 and 3)
  • Mineralization at Contact-Pukelman zone remains open in all directions with drilling to date confirming a mineralized footprint of approximately 900 m x 650 m (see Figure 2)
  • Results for several holes are still pending, including from the adjacent Pukelman target area where numerous instances of visible gold were observed in the drill core.

CONTACT-PUKELMAN TARGET

In 2025, Sitka completed six diamond drill holes totalling 2,172 metres at Contact and three diamond drill holes totalling 1,876 metres at Pukelman (see Figure 2). Drilling intersected broad intervals of strongly altered metasediments cut by several quartz monzonite, and biotite-feldspar porphyritic dykes, along with abundant, cm scale, sheeted quartz veins. Visible gold was observed in the sheeted quartz veins and was often associated with arsenopyrite, bismuthinite, and minor scheelite (see Figures 3 and 4).

Sitka’s 2025 drill program was designed to expand the mineralized footprint of the Contact zone, test the zone with oriented diamond drill core to better understand controls on the mineralization and test the linkage between the metasedimentary and intrusion hosted mineralization of the Contact and Pukelman zones. The Contact zone was previously drilled in 2010 and 2011 with 1,660 metres in 12 holes of reverse circulation drilling and 254 metres in 2 holes of diamond drilling and encountered significant mineralization in quartz veining within metasedimentary rocks up to 450 metres south of the Pukelman intrusion. Current drilling to date has traced gold mineralization across a lateral extent of approximately 900 metres x 650 metres and from surface to a depth of approximately 430 metres.

* While visible gold observations are very encouraging and confirm the presence of gold mineralization, they are not intended to imply potential gold grades. Gold assays will be published after they are received from the lab for mineralized intervals in which visible gold particles were noted.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control

On receipt from the drill site, the HTW/NTW-sized drill core was systematically logged for geological attributes, photographed and sampled at Sitka’s core logging facility. Sample lengths as small as 0.3 m were used to isolate features of interest, otherwise a default 2 m downhole sample length was used. Each sample is identified by a unique sample tag number which is placed in the bag containing the core to be assayed. Core was cut in half lengthwise along a predetermined line, with one-half (same half, consistently) collected for analysis and one-half stored as a record. Standard reference materials, blanks and duplicate samples were inserted by Sitka personnel at regular intervals into the sample stream. Bagged samples were placed in secure bins to ensure integrity during transport. They were delivered by Sitka personnel or a contract expeditor to ALS Laboratories’ preparatory facility in Whitehorse, Yukon, with analyses completed in North Vancouver.

ALS is accredited to ISO 17025:2005 UKAS ref. 4028 for its laboratory analysis. Samples were crushed by ALS to over 70 per cent passing below two millimetres and split using a riffle splitter. One-thousand-gram splits were pulverized to over 85 per cent passing below 75 microns. Gold determinations are by fire assay with an inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-AES) finish on 50 g subsamples of the prepared pulp (ALS code: Au-ICP-22). Any sample returning over 10 g/t gold was re-analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish on a 50 g subsample (ALS code: Au-GRA21). In addition, a 51-element analysis was performed on a 0.5 g subsample of the prepared pulps by an aqua regia digestion followed by an inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) finish (ALS code: ME-MS41).

About Sitka’s Flagship RC Gold Project

Sitka’s 100% owned RC Gold Project consists of a 431 square kilometre contiguous district-scale land package located in the heart of Yukon’s Tombstone Gold Belt. The project is located approximately 100 kilometres east of Dawson City, which has a 5,000 foot paved runway, and is accessed via a secondary gravel road from the Klondike Highway which is usable year-round and is an approximate 2 hour drive from Dawson City. It is the largest consolidated land package strategically positioned mid-way between the Eagle Gold Mine and the past producing Brewery Creek Gold Mine.

The RC Gold Project now has pit-constrained mineral resources that are contained in two zones: the Blackjack and Eiger gold deposits with 1,291,000 ounces of gold in 39,962,000 tonnes grading 1.01 g/t gold in an indicated category and 1,044,000 ounces of gold in 34,603,000 tonnes grading 0.94 g/t in an inferred category at Blackjack and 440,000 ounces of gold in 27,362,000 tonnes grading 0.50 g/t gold in an inferred category at Eiger. These resource estimate numbers are supported by the recently updated technical report for RC Gold, prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards, entitled ‘Clear Creek Property, RC Gold Project NI 43-101 Technical Report Dawson Mining District, Yukon Territory’, prepared by Ronald G. Simpson, P. Geo., of GeoSim Services Inc. with an effective date of January 21, 2025. This report is available on SEDAR+ (http://www.sedarplus.ca) and on the Company’s website (www.sitkagoldcorp.com).

Both of these deposits begin at surface, are potentially open pit minable and Initial bottle roll metallurgical testing confirmed the non-refractory characteristics of the gold mineralization and returned gold extraction rates averaging around 85%. Further metallurgical testwork in 2024 returned recoveries ranging from 77.6 to 93% for gravity followed by cyanidation.

For the purposes of the current resource model, it is assumed that a likely mill flowsheet would consist of a gravimetric, flotation, and cyanidation circuit.

The company has now completed 165 diamond drill holes for a total of 59,770 metres across the Clear Creek Intrusive Complex (CCIC), and an additional 3 holes for 858 metres in the May-Qu Intrusion. Drilling continues to outline higher grade mineralization at all zones including hole DDRCCC-24-068 at Blackjack which intersected 678.1 metres of 1.04 g/t gold starting from surface (see news release dated October 21, 2024), and hole DDRCCC-25-075 which intersected 352.8 metres of 1.55 g/t gold including 108.9 metres of 3.27 g/t gold and 45.0 metres of 4.52 g/t gold (see news release dated April 22, 2025). Drilling in 2024/2025 has resulted in the discovery of a new higher grade zone at Rhosggobel including hole DDRCRG-25-010 at Rhosgobel which intersected 235.9 metres of 1.11 g/t gold, including 40.0 m of 2.01 g/t gold and 10.0 m of 5.29 g/t gold, from surface (see news release dated September 18, 2025).

RC Gold Deposit Model

Exploration on the Property has mainly focused on identifying an intrusion-related gold system (‘IRGS’). The property is within the Tombstone Gold Belt which is the prominent host to IRGS deposits within the Tintina Gold Province in Yukon and Alaska. Notable deposits from the belt include: Fort Knox Mine in Alaska with current Proven and Probable Reserves of 230 million tonnes at 0.3 g/t Au (2.471 million ounces; Sims 2018)(1); Eagle Gold Mine with current Measured and Indicated Resources of 233 million tonnes at a grade of 0.57 g/t Au at the Eagle Main Zone (4.303 million ounces; Harvey et al, 2022)(2); the Brewery Creek deposit with current Indicated Mineral Resource of 22.2 million tonnes at a gold grade of 1.11 g/t (0.789 million ounces; Hulse et al. 2020)(3); the AurMac Project with an Indicated Mineral Resource of 112.5 million tonnes grading 0.63 gram per tonne gold (2.274 million ounces)(4) plus an Inferred resource of 280.6 million tonnes grading 0.60 g/t gold (5.454 million ounces)(4), the Valley Deposit, with a current Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of 7.94 million oz gold at 1.21 g/t and an additional Inferred Mineral Resource of 0.89 million oz at 0.62 g/t gold(5), and the Raven deposit with an inferred mineral resource of 1.1 million oz (19.96 million tonnes at 1.67 g/t gold)(6). The QP has been unable to verify the information regarding the above resource estimations and the information is not necessarily indicative of the mineralization on the property that is the subject of the disclosure.
