The definitive feasibility study Positive definitive feasibility study increases mine life was based on Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves of 4.6 Moz AuEq to 12 year with average of 324 koz AuEq (39.8 Mt at 2.6 g/t Au and 69 g/t Ag). The study indicated a high-grade open-pit and a flotation plant producing higher grade saleable concentrate. Skeena is continuing to advance the project through permitting and is undertaking early development work.
