GSKR · Price

Executive Summary

  • Goldsky Resources Corp. has commenced its 2026 winter drilling season at the 100%-owned Rajapalot Gold Project in northern Finland.
  • The company has mobilized four diamond drill rigs for a 10,000-metre program designed to upgrade inferred resources and support the transition from exploration to mining licenses.
  • The program is split between 8,000 metres of infill drilling at the Raja and Palokas deposits and 2,000 metres of target testing for potential resource growth.

Key Details

  • Drilling Program Scope: Total of 10,000 metres planned for the 2026 winter season.
  • Infill Drilling: Approximately 8,000 metres focused on the Raja and Palokas deposits to increase confidence in existing inferred resources and facilitate progression to mining licenses under Finnish regulations.
  • Target Testing: Approximately 2,000 metres planned to test high-priority exploration targets in the immediate vicinity of current resource areas to support potential resource growth.
  • Equipment: Four diamond drill rigs have been mobilized to the site.
  • Strategic Objective: The program aims to upgrade mineral resources to support permitting advancement and increase the gold-cobalt resource base.
  • Existing Mineral Resource (Effective Aug. 26, 2021):
    • Scenario: Underground only mining.
    • Tonnes: 9.8 million tonnes.
    • Grade: 2.8 g/t gold (Au) and 441 ppm cobalt (Co).
    • Contained Metal: 867,000 ounces of gold and 4,311 tonnes of cobalt.
    • Cut-off Grade: 1.1 g/t AuEq (Gold equivalent, calculated as Au g/t + Co ppm / 1,005).
    • Depth Limit: 20 metres below the base of solid rock.
  • Geological Context: Mineralization is orogenic, located within sheared/foliated wall rocks adjacent to hydrothermally altered shear zones. Hosted in mafic volcanic and volcaniclastic stratigraphy of the Paleoproterozoic Kivalo Group.
  • Project Status: Mineralization remains open at depth across the entire project, with drilling extending to over 640 metres below surface at South Palokas and Raja prospects.
  • Qualified Person: Dr. Thomas Fromhold (Fromhold Geoconsult AB) reviewed and approved the technical information.

Notable Quotes
