The Yukon Flats Exploration Project continues to progress steadily, meeting expectations and operating smoothly through the end of the summer exploration season. Throughout September and October, Hilcorp’s custom-built drilling rig has remained active near Birch Creek, with activity at the site proceeding as planned and without major interruptions.
Project operations will begin winding down as the exploration season draws to a close. Work at the site is scheduled to wrap up by the end of October, with all equipment secured for the winter months. The seasonal pause ensures that operations remain safe, efficient, and aligned with environmental and logistical conditions in the region.
Looking Ahead
Exploration activity is expected to resume in spring 2026, when the project team will return to continue operations at the identified drill sites. Recruitment for seasonal positions will also reopen in the spring, and Doyon will once again encourage shareholders interested in employment opportunities to apply.
Doyon will continue to provide updates and share information as the project progresses into the next season.
