Water Quality Management Project Overview Skeena Gold + Silver is working to reopen the historic Eskay Creek underground mine as a conventional truck and shovel open-pit operation that will produce a gold-silver concentrate. Once in production, the concentrate from Eskay Creek will produce an average of between 200,000 and 250,000 ounces of gold annually and between 5.5 and 7 million ounces of silver annually over the Project’s estimated 18 year lifespan. The site has significant existing infrastructure already in place, including: +
Permitted Tom MacKay Storage Facility
+
Camps
+
Offices
+
All-weather access roads into site
+
Hydroelectric facilities
Skeena remains committed to environmental responsibility and reconciliation. Our site will be powered by clean energy, accessed through Coast Mountain Hydroelectric Facilities, partly owned by the Tahltan Nation.
