Skeena Resources Nears 75% Completion at High-Grade Eskay Creek Gold Project

Skeena Resources: Market Tailwinds And Derisked Finances
Skeena Resources (SKE) is rated a value Buy, supported by strong gold/silver forecasts, solid financials, and steady Eskay Creek construction progress. SKE's flagship Eskay Creek project is 62% complete, targeting Q2 2027 commissioning, with an especially productive first 5 years and a 12-year mine life. Funding is tight but credible; management expects current resources to suffice, and any potential shortfall is likely to be small and on favorable terms.
Skeena Resources: A Construction Re-Rate Hidden Inside A Precious Metals Developer
Skeena Resources is transitioning from a high-risk developer to a fully permitted, funded, mid-construction precious metals company targeting initial production in Q2 2027. SKE has secured all major permits, completed 49% of Eskay Creek construction, and raised US$750M in senior secured notes to fund remaining capex and reduce streaming liabilities. Despite a 17.7% capex increase to US$659M and a high price-to-book ratio, SKE offers a rare near-production re-rating opportunity in a favorable jurisdiction with strong gold/silver leverage.
i-80 Gold: A Derisked And Dirt-Cheap Nevada Powerhouse
i-80 Gold Corp. has sold off sharply following the completion of its recapitalization plan, a similar setup to Skeena Resources, which rocketed higher shortly after its selloff once the news was digested. And while both offered dirt-cheap gold/silver exposure, IAUX is much closer to cash flow than SKE was and has a more diversified pipeline capable of greater scale. In my view, this IAUX selloff is nearly as ridiculous an overreaction as the drop below US$0.50, with the major difference being that i-80 is a far more de-risked story today.
