Blue Jay Gold launches fully funded 16,000-metre Yukon drill program at Steller Gold project

Blue Jay Gold CEO Geordie Mark joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the start of diamond drilling at the company’s 100%-owned Steller Gold Project in Yukon, marking the beginning of its fully funded 2026 exploration campaign. The program has commenced along the Skukum Creek Corridor, with initial drilling focused on the northern silver-gold-rich zone surrounding Raca. The 2026 exploration strategy is designed to expand the footprint of existing high-grade gold and silver resources while testing additional targets using new geological techniques and integrated exploration approaches. Mark explained that the company is combining modern re-logging of historical drill core with advanced spectral analysis, paragenetic studies, and district-scale structural modelling. This work is being integrated with both existing and newly acquired regional geophysical data to improve understanding of the structural controls associated with mineralization across the property. The goal is to better define the large-scale geological architecture of the district, identify key mineralized conduits, and generate a pipeline of future drill targets for 2026 and beyond. To support the scale of the exploration effort, Blue Jay is mobilizing a second drill rig to the project. The company’s fully funded program is expected to include up to 16,000 metres of drilling, allowing multiple target areas to be advanced simultaneously throughout the field season. Management believes the combination of high-grade existing resources, extensive historical data, and modern exploration techniques provides significant potential to expand known mineralization and make new discoveries across the broader Steller Gold Project. Drill results are expected to be released on a rolling basis throughout the remainder of 2026 as exploration activities continue. #proactiveinvestors #bluejaygold #tsxv #jay #StellerGoldProject #YukonMining #GoldExploration #SilverExploration #MiningNews #DrillingProgram #ResourceExpansion #GoldStocks #MineralDiscovery
