Randy Reichert, Skeena’s President & CEO commented

“With the successful conversion of over 570,000 gold ounces to the Indicated category, we are very pleased with the updated Mineral Resource Estimate for Snip.
“This Resource will form the basis of a detailed engineering study with project economics, which we anticipate being released in H1 2024.
“The study will demonstrate the potential benefits of adding Snip mineralization to the Eskay Creek Project as a satellite operation, likely including an increased mine life and improved concentrate payabilities at Eskay Creek.
“We look forward to continuing to unlock value for all stakeholders as we advance the Project.”
