Xcite Uranium Inc. has commenced its first diamond drilling program at the Don Lake Project in Saskatchewan.

The 1,500-metre, 14-hole program across six pad locations will test for structurally controlled uranium mineralization. Drilling focuses on the Don and Midas targets, where holes are aligned to intersect northeast-trending and northwest-trending structures north of the Townend Fault and west of the Black Bay Fault.

In the Don Target area, drilling aims to test for extensions of high-grade uranium mineralization beneath the A, B and C Zone trenches and the Hawker trenches. At the Midas Target, drilling will target the source of geochemical anomalies and radiometric signatures identified during 2026 fieldwork.

Prior to commencing drilling, Xcite completed a 2025 VTEM Plus airborne geophysical survey covering the project, which identified a pronounced high electromagnetic conductivity feature associated with the Zone A, Zone B and Hawker Trench uranium occurrences.

The Don Lake project is held under an option agreement where Eagle Plains Resources granted Xcite the exclusive right to earn up to an 80% interest across six uranium projects in the Beaverlodge District. The road-accessible property spans 1,671 hectares and covers 12 Saskatchewan Mineral Deposit Index occurrences, including the past-producing Beta Gamma Mine and the Don Lake Uranium Deposit.

Xcite expects to complete the 1,500-metre diamond drilling program over the coming weeks.
