Skeena Resources (NYSE:SKE) is a mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing high-grade gold and silver projects in northwestern British Columbia, Canada. The company’s flagship assets include the Eskay Creek and Snip properties, both located within the prolific Golden Triangle region. Eskay Creek is notable for its historical production of gold and silver under Barrick Gold in the 1990s, while Snip was formerly a high-grade gold mine operated by Homestake Mining. Skeena’s technical team is actively engaged in drilling, resource expansion, metallurgical testing and environmental baseline studies aimed at delineating and upgrading mineral resources.
Since its inception, Skeena has pursued a strategy of acquiring and consolidating district-scale projects that offer potential for significant resource growth. In 2016, the company secured the Eskay Creek royalties and a 100% interest in the Snip deposit, positioning it to leverage existing infrastructure and geological data. Skeena has completed numerous exploration campaigns, yielding several high-grade intercepts and preliminary economic assessments that underscore the merits of advancing these properties toward development.
Headquartered in Vancouver, Skeena Resources is led by President and CEO Walter Storm, a chartered accountant with extensive experience in the mining sector, and supported by a board of directors and technical advisors with backgrounds in geology, mine engineering and project finance. The company maintains active engagement with local communities and Indigenous groups, including the Tahltan Nation, in order to foster collaborative relationships and to align its exploration programs with environmental stewardship and social responsibility principles.
With a focus on unlocking the full value of its Golden Triangle portfolio, Skeena Resources continues to expand its exploration footprint through systematic drilling and geophysical surveys. The company’s long-term objective is to progress its key projects through prefeasibility and feasibility stages, ultimately delivering a robust, permit-ready asset pipeline for future development and potential partnership opportunities.
