Seabridge Gold Faces Permit Delay for Key KSM Tunnel Infrastructure After Tudor Legal Challenge

Seabridge Gold ( (TSE:SEA) ) has provided an announcement.

On April 10, 2026, Seabridge Gold said British Columbia’s Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals has delayed a decision on permit amendments needed to construct and operate the full length of the Mitchell Treaty Tunnels at its KSM project. The tunnels, a critical link between the Mitchell Valley mining area and processing facilities in the Treaty Valley, partly cross mineral claims held by Tudor Gold, for which Seabridge already holds a Licence of Occupation and limited portal construction approvals.

The permitting decision has been put on hold because a decision-maker wants resolution of Tudor’s legal challenge over whether KSM’s conditional mineral reserve can apply to pre-existing third-party mineral claims. Seabridge maintains the provincial government can legally reserve land for infrastructure like the tunnels, reiterating that KSM has repeatedly been deemed in the province’s best interests and noting it does not plan to start tunnel construction until a final feasibility study is completed, leaving project timelines dependent on the legal outcome.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:SEA) stock is a Sell with a C$40.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Seabridge Gold stock, see the TSE:SEA Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on SEA Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, SEA is a Neutral.

The score is held down primarily by weak financial performance (no revenue, persistent losses, and ongoing cash burn that suggests continued funding needs) and bearish technical momentum (price below key moving averages and negative MACD). Valuation contributes little support because the negative P/E reflects losses and there is no dividend yield provided.
