Sky Gold drills gold and multi-element results at Evening Star, Nevada

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / July 9, 2026 / SKY GOLD CORP. ("Sky" or the "Company") (TSX.V:SKYG) (US:SRKZF) is pleased to present gold and multi-element assay results from drill core, rock, vein and soil sampling on its 100%-owned Evening Star Project in Walker Lane Gold Trend, Nevada. Highlights: ES-26-01 and ES-26-02 intersected anomalous zones with quartz veining and secondary copper, 17.8m and 13.8m wide, respectively. Surface soil and grab sampling defines a northwest gold trend directly east of ES-26-01.

Grab sampling directly east of Good Hope returned up to 48.56 g/t Au, the highest gold value on the property to date, further expanding on the mineralized footprint. Soil sampling at Golden Bomber highlights a 300-meter northwest gold-copper-lead-silver trend and surface sampling 14.98 g/t Au and 9.23 g/t Au. Mike England, CEO of Sky Gold Corp, comments: "These are encouraging results to follow up on which have now led us to a new approach at High Life alongside strong polymetallic gold trends ready for drilling at Good Hope and Golden Bomber." High Life : Results from 3D magnetic and IP surveys suggested a porphyry system 1 kilometer in diameter at High Life and two attempts were made to drill test for mineralization.

The ground was challenging to drill, core was deeply oxidized, and the water table sits deep, around 120 meters from surface. ES-26-01 intersected a 17.8-meter wide interval of silicification with iron oxides and minor secondary copper minerals cutting granodiorite rocks from 108.8 to 126.5 meter downhole. The interval carries anomalous gold, up to 44 ppb Au and up to 0.11% Cu. (See Figure 2) ES-26-02 intersected a 13.8-meter wide zone of anomalous gold, up to 84 ppb Au.

Combined with results from surface soil, subcrop and outcrop geochemical sampling, a northwest gold trend emerged that is 140 meters long (see Figure 1), presenting a new drill target and a new approach to testing the High Life porphyry. Figure 1. Plan view map showing High Life and Good Hope.

Drill holes ES-26-01 and ES-26-02 drill tested the High Life porphyry. Grab and rock chip samples East of the Good Hope gold trend returned 48.56 g/t Au. Figure 2.

Collar details for the four holes drilled at Evening Star in 2026. Good Hope The Good Hope trend is a promising drill target, with almost 500-meter strike length (see Figure 1), the zone of mineralization ranges from 0.9 to 3.1m in width. Recent fieldwork directly east of Good Hope returned a high of 48.56 g/t Au, expanding on the mineralized footprint.

The Company cautions that grab samples are selective by nature and are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the property. These results are used to identify the presence of mineralization and to prioritize future drilling targets. CRD Hill ES-26-03 was drilled into CRD Hill, where multiple manto-like gossans were found on surface.
