Seabridge Gold (NYSE: SA) has announced significant drilling results from its Iskut project's Snip North target in BC's Golden Triangle. The company reported that six remaining holes from the 2024 drill program continued to define extensive copper and gold mineralization, with continuous mineralization now recognized across a 2,000-meter strike length and a 600-meter dip projection.
Notable results include Hole SN-24-19 intersecting 382m of 0.45 gpt Au and 0.15% Cu. The mineralization comprises two distinct styles: a high-temperature potassic Cu-Au domain and an Au-Ag domain indicative of a lower temperature intermediate sulphidation epithermal system. The company plans to initiate resource definition drilling in 2025, focusing on delineating a mineral resource and targeting the intrusive source of the mineral system.
Seabridge Gold faces a second legal challenge against its KSM Project's 'substantially started' determination, filed by SkeenaWild Conservation Trust and Southeast Alaska Indigenous Transboundary Commission. This new petition, similar to the first one filed by Tsetsaut Skii km Lax Ha, challenges the Minister's July 25, 2024 determination as unreasonable. The determination had effectively removed the Project's Environmental Assessment Certificate expiry date of July 29, 2026.
The project received strong support from major Indigenous peoples in the area and local communities. Seabridge's Chairman expressed confidence in defending against both petitions, noting that the determination remains in effect during legal proceedings. A final decision could take a year or more.
Seabridge Gold faces a legal challenge as Tsetsaut Skii km Lax Ha (TSKLH) filed a petition against British Columbia's determination that the KSM Project is 'substantially started'. The challenge questions the consultation process and seeks to overturn the July 25, 2024 determination. Seabridge had completed or initiated 94 of 336 project components, investing $444 million. The project received support from major Indigenous groups and local communities. The petition doesn't affect the current determination, which will remain valid if successfully defended. A final decision could take over a year.
Seabridge Gold (NYSE: SA) reported a Q3 2024 net loss of $27.6 million ($0.31 per share), compared to a $5.3 million loss in the same period last year. The current quarter's loss includes a $42.0 million non-cash loss from secured notes remeasurement. Investment in mineral interests decreased to $28.0 million from $73.7 million year-over-year. Net working capital stood at $36.0 million, down from $54.5 million at end-2023. Notable developments include KSM's License of Occupation renewal for 20 years for Mitchell Treaty Tunnels, promising drill results at Iskut's Snip North target, and exploration activities at 3 Aces.
Seabridge Gold (TSX:SEA) (NYSE:SA) has announced promising results from its exploration drilling at the 100% owned Iskut project in BC's Golden Triangle. The drilling at the Snip North target revealed broad widths of gold and copper mineralization within a large potassic alteration system. Key findings include:
- Hole 17: 303m of 0.75 gpt gold and 0.10% copper
- Hole 18: 478m of 0.49 gpt gold and 0.13% copper
- Hole 20: 532m of 0.48 gpt gold and 0.10% copper
The scale and character of the mineralization suggest a nearby porphyry intrusive source. The company believes this could be a significant discovery in the making, potentially unlocking the porphyry potential of the Iskut project.
Seabridge Gold (TSX: SEA) (NYSE: SA) announced that the B.C. government has renewed the License of Occupation (LoO) for the Mitchell Treaty Tunnels (MTT) at its KSM Project until September 27, 2044.

Key points:
- The MTT consists of two 23 km long parallel tunnels connecting the east and west sides of the KSM Project Mine Site.
- 12.5 km of the MTT route passes through 11 mineral claims owned by a joint venture of which Tudor Gold Corp. is the operator.
- The new LoO removes language about 'prior rights' of claim holders, clarifying KSMCo's priority for MTT construction and operation.
- KSMCo holds additional permits for MTT-related activities, including portal construction and surface infrastructure development.
- Seabridge has initiated the permit amendment process for approval to construct the full length of the MTT.

Seabridge Gold (TSX: SEA) (NYSE: SA) reports progress on its 3 Aces project in Yukon Territory. The core drilling program is expanding known mineralized zones in the Central Core Area (CCA) and identifying new targets. A second drill is evaluating historical prospects outside the CCA. The exploration model predicts continuity of mineralization, including high-grade gold, along second-order fold limbs.
Early drilling has encountered favorable arsenopyrite-bearing veins and breccias on projected fold limbs, likely expanding previously recognized gold-bearing zones. Regional mapping is finding evidence of similar structures across the property. Seabridge believes 3 Aces has potential as a district-scale opportunity. The company is also conducting reclamation and environmental monitoring activities.
Seabridge Gold (TSX: SEA) (NYSE: SA) announced that its subsidiary, KSM Mining ULC, has received a 'substantially started' designation from the BC Government for its KSM Project.

The company has invested over $1 billion in the KSM Project since 2001, with more than $800 million spent after receiving the EAC in July 2014. This milestone positions KSM to become a significant economic contributor to northwestern BC and supports the development of critical mineral supply chains for North America's technology, defense, and security needs.
Seabridge Gold's CEO, Rudi Fronk, emphasized the regulatory significance of this decision and its potential to facilitate joint venture discussions for the KSM Project.
