Which US presidential candidate does gold prefer?
Gold loves chaos and should be hitting new highs, especially with inflation coming down and with it, two rate cuts likely before year’s end.
Vancouver, BC (July 27, 2016) Skeena Resources Limited (TSX.V: SKE) (“Skeena” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that exploration permits have been granted for the proposed diamond drill program on the Company’s Snip gold project in the Golden Triangle of northwest British Columbia. As a result, crews are now mobilizing to site to prepare drill pads for the initial 6,000 metre drill program. It is anticipated that drilling will commence in the first week of August.
Drilling will target prospective structures that have been partially identified by historic drill intercepts in areas below and to the east of the historic mine production areas (see news release dated May 17, 2016). Crews will also begin establishing a camp on the property that will allow work to continue well into the fall.
