Wonder if Standard got any SKE stock from ice deal yet, Skeena to earn interest in Ice claims from Quest

Skeena Resources Ltd
SKE
Shares issued 8,224,206
1999-04-14 close $0.08
Thursday Apr 15 1999
Also Quest International Resources Corp (QIX)
Mr. J.R. Allan reports
Skeena has entered into an option agreement whereby it may earn up to a 75 per
cent interest in Quest's Ice claims in the Elk Valley of southeastern British
Columbia. The principal target is diamonds. Terms of the agreement call for
exploration expenditures of $750,000, cash payments totalling $150,000 and the
staged issuance of 500,000 shares of Skeena in order for Skeena to become fully
vested. Skeena will be the operator. A finder's fee is payable to a non-related
party.
The road accessible Ice project consists of 529 claim units covering an area of
approximately 132 square kilometres on the west side of the Elk Valley,
immediately west of the coal mining town of Elkford.
Quest began exploration for diamonds on the Ice claims in 1993 and has
expended approximately $1.3-million on investigations, including a
helicopter-borne magnetic and electromagnetic survey. The original goal was to
follow up anomalous diamond indicator minerals obtained from stream sediment
samples in the vicinity of, but demonstrably not derived from, the well-known
Crossing Creek kimberlite. In 1994, Quest was successful in delineating three new
kimberlite pipes, all exposed in road cuts (the Bonus and the Ram 5 and 6 pipes)
and a kimberlitic dike.
During the fall of 1998, hand selected material from the three exposed pipes was
acquired and is currently warehoused in Cranbrook, B.C. These samples will be
analyzed for their microdiamond content by caustic dissolution as soon as is
practical. Additional field followup of co-incidental airborne magnetic/resistivity
anomalies and positive indicator mineral anomalies in stream sediments is
scheduled to commence in June
