Skeena Resources Limited Announces 2023 Financial Results

Skeena Resources Limited released its financial outcomes for the fourth quarter and the entire year of 2023 as of December 31, 2023. The documents, including the financial statements, management's discussion and analysis (MD&A), and annual information form (AIF), have been made accessible on Skeena's official website. Additionally, these files are available on the SEDAR+ and EDGAR platforms for public viewing.

The company, which is known for its exploration and development endeavors in the Canadian mining sector, specifically focuses on the Eskay Creek and Snip Projects in the Golden Triangle of Northwest British Columbia. In November 2023, Skeena unveiled a Definitive Feasibility Study for the Eskay Creek project. This study projects significant financial outcomes, such as an after-tax NPV5% of C$2B, an internal rate of return (IRR) of 43%, and a payback period of 1.2 years, based on gold and silver prices of US$1,800/oz and US$23/oz respectively.

The report also touches on forward-looking statements, detailing anticipated mining capacities, lifespan, probable reserves, and cost estimates among other projections. These forecasts depend on various factors including mineral resource estimates, market prices, and regulatory approvals. However, the report cautions about the potential risks and uncertainties that could affect future operations and results, reinforcing the unpredictable nature of the mining industry.
