Banyan Gold Continues to Intersect Visible Gold and High-Grade Mineralization in Powerline, Yukon, Canada

Yukon’s Tier-1 scale gold project transitions from resource expansion to high-grade definition as PEA looms.

Executive Summary

The most recent news (February 26, 2026) reports continued high-grade gold intercepts and visible gold from the central Powerline Deposit at the AurMac Project, Yukon. Key intercepts include 1.82 g/t Au over 26.2m and 2.10 g/t Au over 14.0m. These results follow the February 19 announcement of the commencement of a fully funded 40,000+ meter diamond drill program for 2026. The drilling is specifically designed to refine the Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) by defining higher-grade mineralized domains and converting waste blocks to ore within the conceptual pit shells.

Material Impact

The news is Routine - Positive. While the grades are higher than the current average resource grade (0.63 g/t Indicated), they are consistent with the "high-grade" results reported throughout late 2025 and early 2026. - Resource Quality: The results confirm the continuity of the high-grade core, which is critical for the upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). Higher-grade "starter pits" significantly improve project economics (IRR/NPV). - Operational Momentum: The company has successfully transitioned from a massive 7-million-ounce Inferred resource to a more robust Indicated category (2.27 Moz) and is now focused on "value-added" drilling. - Funding: The 2026 program is fully funded following the massive $31.4M private placement in October 2025, removing immediate financing risk.
