Toronto, Ontario (FSCwire) - Eskay Mining Corp. (“Eskay” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:ESK) is pleased to announce that the Company’s new website, found at www.eskaymining.com, has been launched. 

As a result of recent activity in the Golden Triangle area of British Columbia, the Company is reviewing some historical results from diamond drilling of the Red Lightning prospect, where a Copper-Nickel-Cobalt discovery was made in 2008. Results from drill hole CR08-86, reported in a press release dated August 12, 2008 included an intercept of 20.4m grading 0.79% Cu, 0.42% Ni and 0.08% Co from 222.8 m to 243.2 m (estimated true thickness 10.8m). The intersection included a 10m intercept grading 1.03% Cu, 0.55% Ni and 0.10% Co (estimated true thickness 5.3m). The Company will be reviewing drill data, as well as the results of previous geophysical and geochemical surveys in order to re-evaluate the potential of the Red Lightning prospect and to formulate an appropriate follow-up exploration program, including possible diamond drilling. A report on the 2008 exploration program can be found on the company website, under the tab Projects - Geological Reports - 2008 Exploration on the Corey Property.
