Aben Gold Corp. has completed 766 metres of diamond drilling across 21 operating days at its 100%-owned Justin Gold-Tungsten Project in the southeastern Yukon Territory.

The latest field figures build on the program's August commencement, with three holes now finished at the POW Zone totaling 722.65 metres. Hole JN26-001 reached a final depth of 265.3 metres, hole JN26-002 was completed at 207.35 metres, and hole JN26-003 finished at 250.05 metres. A fourth hole, JN26-004, is currently underway from pad 2 to follow up on scheelite mineralization observed in the third hole.

Cutting of hole JN26-001 is finished, with 341 core samples dispatched to Bureau Veritas for assay on August 26, 2026. Preparation is underway for subsequent dispatches containing 227 samples from JN26-002 and 217 samples from JN26-003. Aben expects to receive and report assay results from these shipments as they are processed through the lab queue.

“The 2026 drill program at Justin is advancing well. We have three holes complete, a fourth hole underway at POW, and the first hole already cut and sent to the lab. Getting JN26-001 into the assay queue quickly is a priority so we can begin receiving results during what is surely a busy fall season for labs. We look forward to updating shareholders as assays are received.”

— Riley Trimble, President and CEO of Aben Gold

Aben is continuing field operations at the site, located approximately 25 kilometres from the past-producing Cantung Mine, as it advances the 1,300-metre 2026 exploration campaign.
