Skeena Resources Ltd. (TSXV:SKE) announced assay results for the first five holes from the recently completed diamond drill program at its British Columbia-based Spectrum gold project.

As quoted in the press release:

All of the holes, drilled from 4 separate platforms, were directed at exploring continuity to depth along the Central Zone occurrence, by a series of intercepts averaging 50 metres beneath historic intersections. A drill plan map has been posted to the Company’s website. Detailed cross-sections and preliminary interpretations will be posted upon receipt of the outstanding analyses from the remaining 4 holes along with 250 check samples from historic drill core.
Drilling was confined to the Central Zone due to the late seasonal start of the program. Composited results are presented in Table 1 below. Significant intercepts include: 23.84 g/t Au over 6.5 m, including 40.43 g/t Au over 3.5 m, in ddh 14-SP-003; 10.63 g/t Au over 27.0 m, including 66.00 g/t Au over 2.0 m and 20.4 g/t Au over 2.0 m, 9.2 g/t over 2.0 m, 8.0 g/t Au over 2.0 m and 22.7 g/t Au over 2.0 m in ddh 14-SP-004; and 18.60 g/t Au over 2.0 m, 3.19 g/t Au over 4.0 m, 7.32 g/t Au over 2.0 m, and 6.88 g/t Au over 2.0 m in ddh 14-SP-005.
