Executive Summary
Seabridge Gold reported that British Columbia's Environmental Assessment Office (EAO) is progressing its reconsideration of the Substantially Started Designation (SSD) for the KSM Project, following a June 2026 court ruling. The EAO will provide Seabridge an opportunity to respond to TSKLH submissions after the consultation period ends on September 28, 2026, then draft a report and make a recommendation. This is a procedural update with no definitive outcome, keeping the KSM project's regulatory path uncertain.
