1. Change the culture to one that uses a non-Gregorian calendar (I changed it to fa-IR (Persian)).
2. Republish one of the articles that is present in the sitemap.
3. Now, check the details of that article in the sitemap.
   You will see that the lastmod field has a Jalali (non-Gregorian) date.

Thanks! So, it seems when generating the lastmod we need to force a specific format regardless of the culture, W3C Datetime format, see the docs.
