# Banyan Gold Intersects 10,734 g/t Silver Over 1.7m, Confirming Structure Hosting High Grade Keno-Style Mineralization, AurMac, Yukon, Canada *2026-01-22T06:00:00-05:00* Banyan Gold Intersects 10,734 g/t Silver Over 1.7m, Confirming Structure Hosting High Grade Keno-Style Mineralization, AurMac, Yukon, Canada **VANCOUVER, BC / [ACCESS Newswire](https://www.accessnewswire.com/)/ January 22, 2026 / ****Banyan Gold Corp**. (the "**Company**" or "**Banyan**") (**TSX-V:BYN**)(**OTCQB:BYAGF**) is pleased to announce it has intersected a very high-grade silver ("**Ag**") interval near previous high-grade intersections in the Ag-1 vein at the Powerline Deposit ("**Powerline**") at its AurMac Project ("**AurMac**"), Yukon, Canada. Highlights from 2025 confirming the very high-grade Keno-style silver mineralization in Powerline: - AX-25-803 - **5,625 g/t Ag over 3.4m**within **1,841 g/t Ag over 10.4 **_metres ("**m**")_, with very high-grade interval of **10,734 g/t Ag over 1.7m** - AX-25-790 - **110.7 g/t Ag over 0.8m**within 22.06 g/t Ag over 5.7m - AX-25-715 - **132 g/t Ag over 0.5m**within 7.25 g/t Ag over 13.7m "The high-grade Keno-style veins overprinting the gold mineralization represent a compelling new potential target for Banyan," said Tara Christie, President and CEO. "Hole AX-25- 803 returned results of 10,734 g/t over 1.7m, within 3.4m averaging 5,625 g/t, and a broader interval of 10.4 m at 1,841 g/t. Being able to successfully target this specific narrow, high-grade vein structure at depth is a technical success on top of the prospectivity for additional veins of silver mineralization we are finding in the Ag-1 vein zone. Parallel veins intersected in both current and historic drilling further reinforce the scale and exploration potential of the targeted zone." - AX-25-803 was drilled 90m away from 2021's hole AX-21-142 and intersected the vein 20m from hole 142 at a depth of 115m. - AX-21-142 included 1841.14 g/t Ag over 16.8m within 302.68 g/t Ag over 103.6 m; includes 14,629 g/t Ag over 1.1m and 11,828 g/t Ag over 1.2m (News Release, October 29, 2025) "These high-grade silver results from hole AX-25-803 confirm continuity of the Ag-1 vein in central Powerline intersected originally in 2021 (1841.14 g/t Ag over 16.8m in AX-21-142) roughly 20m apart at depth," stated Duncan Mackay, Vice President Exploration of Banyan Gold. "The high-grade veins take advantage of different, steeply dipping, late brittle structures that strike northeast-southwest, different than the sheeted veins that host gold mineralization. We are working to determine the extent and potential for repetition of the thicker high-grade veins we see in holes AX-21-142 and AX-25-803 and improve targeting of silver mineralization across the deposit. Drillhole AX-25-803 was successful in confirming the orientation of the brittle structure and will help target extensions of the Ag-1 vein zone. Additional intersections in AX-25-790 and AX-25-803 indicate potential for sub-parallel veins adjacent to Ag-1; further testing will work to confirm the orientation and continuity of Ag-2 and Ag-3."

Magenta shape shows approximate surface trace of the Ag-1 vein. Dashed magenta lines denote potential vein traces on surface (see Ag-2 and Ag-3 veins in figure 2). Mineralization is open along strike to the northeast and down-plunge (steeply plunging to the northeast; see cross section A-B; figure 2).

Silver intersections within drillholes AX-25-803 are consistent with late brittle feature for the Ag-1 vein intersected in drillhole AX-21-142 (see news release dated October 29, 2025). Two sub-parallel veins have been identified adjacent to the Ag-1 vein intersected in holes AX-21-142 and AX-25-803; Ag-2 and Ag-3 are north and south of Ag-1 respectively (magenta veins and dashed traces above).

Silver mineralization is associated with semi-massive galena and sphalerite mineralization hosted within discrete Fe-carbonate ± quartz veins. **Table 1: Significant diamond drillhole assay intercepts for Powerline in this release** | Hole ID | depth from (m) | depth to (m)
