Golden Sky Minerals Corp. announced that a 600 m x 475 m zone of elevated gold-in-soil values, up to 552 ppb Au, has been defined at the Sure Bet North zone, located within its 100% owned Hotspot Property (“the Property”) in the Yukon Territory. This zone is overlain and flanked by a multi-element bismuth (Bi), antimony (Sb), arsenic (As), ± selenium (Se) and ± molybdenum (Mo) geochemical anomaly, which further extends the mineralized system to approximately 1000 m x 600 m. This geochemical soil anomaly trends northeast and appears to transition from a mid-level low-sulphidation system (Au, As, Sb), exposed in the creek valley, to an upper-level low-sulphidation gold system upslope (As, Sb).

Erosion may have exposed the extent of the geochemical signature of this low sulphidation system which may host gold-bearing mineralization below the upper-slope zone marked by anomalous As and Sb values. The West Valley zone was also further defined by soil sampling in 2022. Permafrost, which is more developed in this zone, can mask element distribution representing the underlying bedrock geochemical signature.

Despite sampling difficulties, a ~600 m x 300 m arsenic-in-soil anomaly was defined, with sporadic elevated gold and antimony values. With similar geological, geophysical and geochemical characteristics to the Sure Bet zone, the West Valley zone is considered highly prospective for further exploration.
