Skeena Resources Limited TSX VENTURE: SKE Sep 26, 2007 12:45 ET Skeena Provides Exploration Update and Grants Options VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Sept. 26, 2007) - Skeena Resources Limited (TSX VENTURE:SKE) reports that on the Company's optioned Malpica project east of Mazatlan, Sinaloa State, Mexico, a detailed field program of grid emplacement, soil geochemical sampling and geological mapping is nearing completion. The 7,718 hectare property is well situated with respect to infrastructure being crossed by a paved highway, by a major hydro line, and within 1 kilometre of a rail line. In November, these investigations will be followed up with a trenching program to define drill targets. A minimum 5,000 metre diamond drill program has been contracted and is scheduled to commence at the beginning of January. This will be directed at verification and expansion of the non 43-101 resource at Cerro Pelon and Cerro Tunel copper-gold zones (refer to news release of May 7, 2007) and at exploration of new targets in the vicinity of the historic deposits. This program will constitute the first stage of a Scoping Study which should be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2008. A prospecting and geochemical sampling program has recently been completed on the Company's 100% owned Blackhorn property, located 40 km south-southeast of Tatla Lake in the Coast Mountains of west-central British Columbia. Analytical results will be reported upon receipt. The Company is well financed for the current programs, with working capital of $2.7 million. In accordance with the Company's stock option plan, Skeena is granting 1,970,000 incentive stock options at an exercise price of $0.40 per share for a period of five years from the date of grant to directors, employees and consultants.
