Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 26, 2024) - Seabridge Gold (TSX: SEA) (NYSE: SA) announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, KSM Mining ULC ("KSM Co"), has received its "substantially started" designation from the BC Government for its 100% owned KSM Project. This designation affirms the validity of the BC Environmental Assessment Certificate ("EAC") for the life of the KSM Project.
Under the B.C. Environmental Assessment Act, a project's EAC expires if the project has not been substantially started by the deadline specified in its EAC. However, the B.C. Minister of Environment and Climate Change Strategy may determine that a project has been 'substantially started' before the deadline, in which case the EAC is no longer subject to expiry. KSM's EAC deadline was July 29, 2026. KSM Co. has spent over $1 Billion since acquiring the KSM Project in 2001, of which in excess of $800 Million has been spent to advance the project after the issuance of the EAC in July 2014. see & read more on
