“Strong demand for Eskay’s financing illustrates the excitement behind our recent discovery of multiple precious metal rich VMS systems across our very large land holding in the Golden Triangle,” commented Dr. Quinton Hennigh, Director of and Technical Advisor to Eskay Mining. “These funds ensure our ability to undertake an aggressive, +30,000 m diamond drill program in 2021. Next year’s program will focus on three objectives: 1) infill and step-out drilling at the 5 km long TV-Jeff VMS trend, 2) infill and step-out drilling at the 3 km long SIB-Lulu VMS system immediately adjacent to and on strike with Skeena Resources’ Eskay Creek deposit, and 3) initial drill testing of up to a dozen newly identified high-priority targets across the property. Logistics and drill planning is currently underway with plans to commence drilling in June, 2021. We firmly believe that we are on the path to a significant precious metal rich VMS discovery and that next season’s exploration program will prove to be one of the most exciting in Canada.”
