Blue Jay Gold Corp Mobilizes Lithologiq Hyperspectral Core Scanning System to the Steller Gold Project Blue Jay Gold Corp. announced that LithologIQ, a Montreal-based mineral technology company, has mobilized its hyperspectral core scanning system to the Company's 100%-owned Steller Gold Project in southern Yukon. The system will examine 40,000 metres of drill core this season, both newly collected and historical, producing integrated mineralogical, magnetic and structural data that rebuilds the Company's understanding of mineral systems across a district-scale dataset. The results will guide and prioritize current and future exploration programs. LithologIQ offers a cost-effective way to build consistency and bring new data into modern exploration, and will be applied to the extensive drill core archive. The company is initially targeting roughly 24,000 metres of historical core for hyperspectral logging this year alone. Paired with reprocessed regional magnetics and inversion modelling, this will let the company begin resolving the three-dimensional architecture of the region to guide future exploration. Key features of LithologIQ's mobile scanning system are rapid, integrated, on-site data collection that combines quality, throughput (up to 2,000 m per day) and cost-effectiveness in this framework year of exploration for the Company. The analytical system uses seven sensors to collect information across multiple spectral ranges: visible and near-infrared, shortwave infrared, and mid-wave infrared. This diversity in spectral range is important to Blue Jay as it can characterize a wide range of minerals (e.g., hydrosilicates, carbonates, silica, and sulphates) that can be key indicator minerals associated with mineralization in different epithermal systems present across the Stellar project. This additional data resolution is expected to help the Company conduct dynamic target analysis during an active program and also build a more complete picture of the alteration footprint across the project. 공고 • Jun 12
Blue Jay Gold Corp Commences Diamond Drilling on the Steller Gold Project Yukon Blue Jay Gold Corp. has commenced diamond drilling on the Company’s 100% owned Steller Gold Project in the Yukon Territory. The commencement of drilling on the Skukum Creek Corridor, featuring initial work on the northern Ag-Au-rich zone around Raca, marks the opening of Blue Jay’s fully funded 2026 exploration season. The 2026 program is designed to extend the footprint of existing high-grade Au-Ag resources and drill test other targets employing new techniques and integrative approaches. Drilling has commenced on the Skukum Creek Structural Corridor, which hosts the Skukum Creek resource, as well as several other zones of outcropping mineralization along its strike length. This is a corridor that hosts some of the highest-grade gold-silver mineralization on the property: drilling will aim to increase the known continuity of Au-Ag mineralization within and between zones. This initial work will concentrate on the Ag-Au northern step out of the Skukum Creek resource, around the Raca zone, which is 300 metres away. It is designed to follow up on earlier drilling that intersected two (east and west) apparent sub-parallel zones of gold-silver mineralization that remain open along strike and at depth. Prior drilling on the Raca zone returned encouraging results including hole RACA 21-03: 3.23 m grading 581 g/t silver and 0.76 g/t gold, as well as 2.65 m grading 489 g/t silver and 0.27 g/t gold, all of which reside outside the boundaries of the resource estimate for Skukum Creek. A second drill rig is being mobilized to the Steller Gold Project, reflecting the scale of Blue Jay’s up to 16,000 metre 2026 program. The Company intends to advance multiple targets concurrently during the 2026 field season, with drill results expected to be released on a rolling basis through the remainder of the year. Blue Jay's 2026 exploration program is the Company's maiden program at Steller and is fully funded from the $14.7 million brokered private placement that closed in April 2026. Up to 16,000 metres of diamond drilling is planned across the property, targeting both the expansion of the existing high-grade resource and the systematic testing of targets that have not previously been drill-tested. A second drill rig is being mobilized to site, and Blue Jay expects to generate a sustained pipeline of news flow as both rigs turn through the remainder of the field season that is projected to continue into October. Underpinning the drill program is a modern, integrated approach to a property that has never been fully understood at the district scale. Re-logging of the historical drill core archive using modern spectral and paragenetic methods is ongoing with the build-out of a district-scale structural architecture model. Central to this effort is the integration of existing and new regional geophysical survey data, which is expected to foster improved delineation of property-wide structural conduits associated with mineralization and provide a springboard for defining future drill targets in 2026 and beyond. The result is a program designed to compound on itself with each hole informing the model, each metre of re-logged core sharpening the next target, and a district-scale gold-silver system being understood, for the first time, in its entirety.
