Eskay Mining Corp. Announces Completion of 2018 Drill Program at SIB

19.10.2018  |  Accesswire

TORONTO, October 19, 2018 - Eskay Mining Corp. (''Eskay'' or the ''Company'') (TSX-V: ESK) (OTC PINK: ESKYF) (FRA: KN7; WKN: A0YDPM) is pleased to announce the completion of a 9,134 m, 11 hole diamond drill program on its SIB property, funded by SSR Mining Inc. (SSRM) (SSRM) (''SSR Mining''). The program was designed to test for precious metals-enriched VMS mineralization in the extensive and relatively under-explored stratigraphy beneath the Coulter Creek Thrust Fault (CCTF), correlative with that at the nearby Eskay Creek deposit (Figure 1).

To date, only 521 geochemical samples out of a total of 1665 have been analyzed. Results will be released when all samples have been analyzed and interpreted. Full interpretation of the geology in the area is currently under review and awaits finalized data from downhole optical and acoustic televiewer surveys, and from the borehole electromagnetic and 3D induced polarization geophysical surveys conducted during the program. These will all aid in fully defining the geometry of the favourable stratigraphy, and in outlining drill targets. The additional geochemical samples are in the queue at ALS-Global Laboratories, which is independent from the Company, with sample preparation carried out at the ALS facility in Terrace, BC, and assays conducted at their North Vancouver laboratory.

SSR Mining has the option to earn a 51% undivided interest in the SIB property from the Company by spending an aggregate of $11.7 million in exploration expenditures over three years with an option to earn a further 9% undivided interest by either delivering a preliminary economic assessment or completing an aggregate of 23,000 meters of diamond drilling (See April 26th, 2017 news release). The property under option to SSR Mining represents approximately 9% of the Company'land package in the Golden Triangle of northwest British Columbia.

Charles J. Greig, P. Geo., a member of the Company's Advisory Team, is a Qualified Person under the definition of National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Greig has reviewed and approved the technical information in this press release.
