net smelter return financial

"2.5% net smelter return royalty on the existing claims"

Net smelter return is the percentage of revenue from selling a mineral or metal that a mining company or project owner receives after deducting costs like refining and transportation. It functions like a share of the profits from the mineral's sale, giving investors an idea of how much money the project generates. This measure helps investors assess the potential profitability of a mining asset.

area of mutual interest financial

"within a broader area of mutual interest"

An area of mutual interest is a subject, market, technology, territory or business opportunity that two or more parties agree is worth exploring or cooperating on under a contract or negotiation. It acts like a shared zone on a map where both sides reserve the right to discuss, develop or pursue deals, and it matters to investors because it signals where future collaboration, licensing, joint ventures or competitive overlap may arise that could affect value, strategy or ownership.

geophysical survey technical

"geophysical survey results"

A geophysical survey uses instruments to measure physical signals from beneath the surface—like magnetism, gravity, electrical currents, or sound waves—to create maps of underground structures. For investors, these surveys act like a medical scan or a metal detector for a property, helping to reveal whether valuable minerals, oil, gas, or other targets are likely present, how extensive they might be, and where to drill, which directly reduces exploration risk and informs project value.

Seabridge Gold To Explore Wyoming for Gold and Critical Minerals

Toronto, Canada - Seabridge Gold Inc. ("Seabridge" or the "Company") (TSX:SEA, NYSE:SA) today announced the execution of a purchase agreement with Orogen Royalties Inc. ("Orogen") to acquire a 100% interest in properties and data of the Slaughterhouse Project in southern Wyoming. This purchase includes 163 US mining claims, geophysical survey results and geological mapping, sampling and prospect evaluation. The Slaughterhouse Project has been evaluated over the past several years by Orogen.

Southern Wyoming has been known for over a century as a copper and gold camp, but the historical occurrences have not had the comprehensive work required to explain its mineral deposits. In particular, copper and gold are typically associated with abundant hematite, an unusual feature which is found in a number of higher-grade mines elsewhere. Orogen's effective and persistent effort has built a compelling deposit concept for an undiscovered large and high-grade gold deposit with significant critical metals co-products.

Seabridge Senior Vice President of Exploration, Bill Threlkeld, noted that "hematite iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) deposits - including world-class giants like Olympic Dam and Prominent Hill in South Australia - are highly prized because they can offer superior grades compared to porphyry deposits including concentrations of critical minerals. Our team likes the challenge of this specific target type because of its potential for a substantial discovery, and it offers an opportunity to advance exploration methods and geological models that have been underutilized in the Western US."

Chair and CEO Rudi Fronk commented: "Our approach to the Slaughterhouse Project will employ a novel concept that has never been tested in Wyoming with modern exploration thinking and tools. Although this is an early-stage project, we believe we have the potential to make a discovery that opens new possibilities for gold and critical metals exploration. We also think that using new technologies and aggressive exploration could unlock mineral systems relatively quickly."

Pursuant to the purchase agreement, Seabridge has agreed to purchase 100% of the project for US$300,000 and provide additional milestone payments totalling up to US$2.55 million upon successful completion of specific goals. Orogen will retain a 2.5% net smelter return ("NSR") royalty on the existing claims (subject to a partial buy down) and a 0.5% to 1% NSR royalty within a broader area of mutual interest. The transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions.

Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect current estimates, predictions, expectations or beliefs regarding future events and include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to: the completion of the acquisition of the Slaughterhouse Project, the exploration potential of the Slaughterhouse Project, including statements that its geological setting, geophysical or geochemical characteristics, alteration, mineralization or other features may be comparable to those associated with large IOCG deposits elsewhere, and the potential scale, grade, timing and results of proposed exploration or evaluation work. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as "expects", "anticipates", "plans", "projects", "estimates", "envisages", "assumes", "intends", "strategy", "goals", "objectives" or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" occur) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based on Seabridge management's current beliefs as well as various assumptions made by them and information currently available to them.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from Seabridge's plans or expectations include, without limitation: the risk that conditions to the closing of the acquisition of the Slaughterhouse Project are not satisfied, the risk that exploration does not identify significant mineralization, whether in scale or grade, or returns results that are less favourable than expected, risks relating to uncertainties in geological interpretations, the risk of changes to exploration plans as the result of logistical, technical or other factors, operational risks and the additional risks described in Seabridge's Annual Information Form filed with SEDAR+ in Canada (available at www.sedarplus.ca) for the year ended December 31, 2025 and in Seabridge's Annual Report Form 40-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on EDGAR (available at www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml). Seabridge cautions that the foregoing list of factors that may affect future results is not exhaustive. When relying on our forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to Seabridge, investors and others should carefully consider the foregoing factors and other uncertainties and potential events.
