The court's affirmation of the 'substantially started' ruling removes a key regulatory overhang for KSM, de-risking the project's permitting timeline. The 90-day consultation with TSKLH is a procedural step, not a substantive threat, and work continues uninterrupted. Traders should watch for the EAO's reconsideration outcome in ~3 months and any further legal challenges, but the near-term catalyst path is positive.

Executive Summary
The BC Supreme Court upheld the EAO's 'substantially started' determination for Seabridge's KSM project as reasonable, but ordered 90 days of additional consultation with the TSKLH First Nation before the EAO reconsiders.
