Skeena Resources (TSXV:SKE) reported assay results for the final 18 holes of its 2015 drill program at its Spectrum property.
As quoted in the press release:

Highlights of this final batch of drill holes include:
Central Zone
Hole S15-60 intersected 18.0 m grading 6.13 g/t Au beginning at a down-hole depth of 252 m, including 1.0 m grading 30.0 g/t Au, and 1.7 m grading 30.6 g/t Au. This hole is the deepest on Section 4930N and is 70 m below an intersection in S15-046 of 4.0 m grading 16.97 g/t Au.
Hole S15-055 intersected 2.0 m grading 8.27 g/t Au beginning at 204.6 m, plus a deeper interval of 1.0 m grading 23.1 g/t Au.
Hole S15-061 intersected 18 m grading 2.69 g/t Au, including 2.0 m grading 11.9 g/t Au. This interval was assayed by metallic screen analysis due to the presence of five sections containing visible gold.
The final exploration hole of the season, S15-070 intersected three zones of mineralization, including 2.0 m grading 4.6 g/t Au, 2.6 m grading 10.18 g/t Au, and 0.9 m grading 8.04 g/t Au.
Boundary Zone
This zone is located 200 m east of the Central Zone and is outlined by very strong gold in soil values and strong bedrock grab and chip samples including 0.2 m grading 18.5 g/t Au and 0.4 m grading 13.7 g/t Au (link to map). Hole S15-065 intersected 2.0 m grading 3.62 g/t Au, and a deeper intersection of 1.14 m grading 10.5 g/t Au. Including the historical drilling, this area has only been tested by three holes in total, and is open to the north, south and at depth.
300 Colour Zone
Two holes tested this zone, which has a very strong gold-in-soil anomaly and is open to the north, south and to depth. It is located 400 metres northwest and parallel to the Central Zone (link to map). Both 2015 holes intersected gold mineralization at shallow depths. Hole S15-066 intersected 2.0 m grading 4.64 g/t Au beginning at a depth of 32.0 m. Hole S15-068 intersected 48.0 m grading 1.05 g/t Au beginning at a down-hole depth of 50 m, including 2.0 m grading 3.62 g/t Au.
