Hole SK-18-003 returned 29.49 g/t gold, 973.01 g/t silver and 43.39 g/t AuEq over 27.70 metres, including 58.95 g/t gold, 2,150.52 g/t silver and 89.67 g/t AuEq over 12.15 metres. Skeena recently reported a pit-con - strained indicated resource includes 207,000 gold-equivalent ounces within 1.09 million tonnes at an average gold-equiva- lent grade of 5.9 g/t. The pit-constrained inferred resource includes 589,000 ounces within 4.26 million tonnes at an average gold-equivalent grade of 4.3 g/t. Skeena also released final assay results from the 9,583-metre Phase II surface and underground drilling program at the com - pany's 100%-owned Snip gold project where drilling highlights included 13.80 g/t gold over 18.00 metres (UG18-110); 34.73 g/t gold over 3.50 metres (UG18-109); 11.75 g/t gold over 5.40 metres (UG18-107); and 31.20 g/t gold over 0.75 metres (UG18-107). Skeena acquired a100% interest in the past- producing Snip Mine from Barrick Gold Corp. [ABX-TSX, NYSE] in July 2017. Sojourn Exploration Inc. [SOJ-TSXV] (halted) has bought the Willoughby, Todd Creek and Oweegee Dome properties from Millrock Resources Inc. [MRO-TSXV; MLRKF-OTCQX]. Sojourn also acquired the Seven Devils' Oxide Peak, Eagle, Rip, and Teeta Creek properties. The company has brought in new management; namely Dr. Tyler Ruks, President and CEO, Nigelk Luckman, COO, and Jeff Kyba and Vice President, Exploration. John Meekison will remain CFO. Spearmint Resources Inc. [SRJ-TSXV; SPMTF-OTC; A2AHL5-Germany] recently acquired a 100% interest in the 920-acre Neba West gold-copper prospect in the vicinity of Aben Resources. Spearmint's projects also include three Golden Triangle gold prospects comprising four separate claim blocks totalling 4,095 acres bordering GT Gold, the Gold Mountain prospects of three separate claim blocks totalling 1,245 acres bordering Barkerville Gold Mines and the 3,052-acre Neba prospect border - ing Aben. Spearmint's 8,482-acre EL North nickel-copper prospect is a contiguous land package that includes the EL North, EL North 2 and the Buddy claims in the Eskay Creek camp bordering Garibaldi Resources. Strikepoint Gold Inc. [SKP-TSXV] recently acquired the Porter Idaho property near Stewart from Skeena Resources where a 3,000-metre drilling program is testing two main areas of interest: possible new exten - sions to the existing veins that would have not been included in the historic resource; and known veins to recover ore zone mate- rial for assaying, the results from which could be used to modernize the historic resources. Teck Resources drilled the prop- erty back in the 1980s. Matrix has built a nearby camp for Strikepoint workers. Strikepoint has completed the acquisi- tion of the Handsome Jack property from Trifecta Gold Ltd. [TG-TSXV] adjacent to its Porter Idaho property. The Handsome Jack property forms a contiguous land package adjacent to the eastern border of the Porter Idaho property. The main known feature within the property is the Melvin adit, last worked in the 1920s and is assumed to intersect the northerly strike extension of the Angelo vein within the Porter Idaho property. Ore from this adit returned up to 4,286 g/t silver during production. The company has recently increased its land position by acquiring the Big, Bada and Boom properties adjacent to its Porter Idaho Project. Sunvest Minerals Corp. [SSS-TSXV; SRKZF-OTC] is exploring its Clone gold property. Phase I exploration comprises geochemical rock, silt and soil sampling and mapping. The program aims to gen - erate drill targets in new glacially ablated zones surrounding the Clone and adjacent showings where Sunvest resampling of historic drill core returned assays as high as 30.3 g/t gold over 4 metres. The program also aims to identify new exploration tar - gets over a recently acquired land package to the south which shares an extended border with Goliath Resources' Gold Digger property. Teuton Resources Corp. [TUO-TSXV; TEUTF-OTC] has found VMS-style (volca - nogenic massive sulphide) mineralization in traverses made west of the area now being drilled on the Pearson property. Angular float containing layered sul- phides – including bornite, chalcopyrite and magnetite – was located on a steep slope just below a cliff marked by patches of blue and green copper stain. Drilling is proceeding on the second hole which is targeting the source of a prominent elec - tromagnetic anomaly. Teuton has interests in more than 30 properties in the Golden Triangle with 11 properties under option to others. Airborne geophysics has been carried out Del Norte, Tennyson and Pearson-Mach properties. Tudor Gold Corp. [TUD-TSXV] released initial results from its 2018 drill program on the Copper Belle Zone of the 60%-owned Treaty Creek property. Gold, silver and copper analyses have been received from the first two holes. Teuton Resources and American Creek Resources Ltd. [AMK- TSXV] each own a 20% carried interest in the property. American Creek also holds the Dunwell, D1-McBride and Electrum prop - erties in the Golden Triangle. To date, five holes have been completed, totalling 3,899 metres and the sixth and sev- enth holes are proceeding. Assays from the first two drill holes indicate broad intervals of more than 300 metres of gold mineraliza- tion that have expanded the known area of the Copper Belle Zone, providing positive results that will be used in future resource calculations. Significantly, the first sight- ing of coarse, visible gold has been made, within an interval that assayed 26.6 g/t gold over 1.5 metres in hole CB-18-32 and 121.8 metres of 1.036 g/t gold with 106.0 g/t silver. In a September 13, 2018 press release Tudor Gold stated that the Copper Belle Zone has the potential to host 1.8-1.9 mil - lion ounces of gold within 45-50 million tonnes grading 1.12-1.35 g/t. Work is geared towards preparation of a mineral resource. Tudor also has either interests or options on the Electrum, Orion, Fairweather, Delta and High North properties in the Golden Triangle. n GOLDEN TRIANGLE
