  • Forward Looking Statements

    2

    All reserve and resource estimates reported by the Company were calculated in accordance with the Canadian National Instrument 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification system. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

    Statements relating to the estimated or expected future production and operating results and costs and financial condition of Seabridge, planned work at the Company’s projects and the expected results of such work are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are generally, but not always, identified by words such as the following: expects, plans, anticipates, believes, intends, estimates, projects, assumes, potential and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements also include reference to events or conditions that will, would, may, could or should occur. Information concerning exploration results and mineral reserve and resource estimates may also be deemed to be forward-looking statements, as it constitutes a prediction of what might be found to be present when and if a project is actually developed. These forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable at the time they are made, are inherently subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: uncertainties related to raising sufficient financing to fund the planned work in a timely manner and on acceptable terms; changes in planned work resulting from logistical, technical or other factors; the possibility that results of work will not fulfill projections/expectations and realize the perceived potential of the Company’s projects; uncertainties involved in the interpretation of drilling results and other tests and the estimation of gold reserves and resources; risk of accidents, equipment breakdowns and labour disputes or other unanticipated difficulties or interruptions; the possibility of environmental issues at the Company’s projects; the possibility of cost overruns or unanticipated expenses in work programs; the need to obtain permits and comply with environmental laws and regulations and othergovernment requirements; fluctuations in the price of gold and other risks and uncertainties, including those described in the Company’s Annual Information Form filed with SEDAR in Canada (available at www.sedar.com) for the year ended December 31, 2018 and in the Company’s Annual Report Form 40-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on EDGAR (available at www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml).

    Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company’s management or its independent professional consultants on the date the statements are made.

    • Deep Kerr core zone found in 2013 now contains 2.0 billion tonne inferred resource grading 0.41% copper and 0.31 g/T gold

    • New inferred resource at Iron Cap zone estimated at 1.9 billion tonnes at 0.45 g/T gold and 0.30% copper

    • Additions to KSM resources since 2013 total 44.4 million ounces of gold and 29.3 billion pounds of copper at grades significantly higher than existing reserves

    • Deep Kerr and Iron Cap’s grades and size compare favorably with some of the world’s largest, most profitable, operating copper/gold mines

    COMMENTARY

    • Based on same Mineral Resource Estimate used in 2016 PFS, except that the Inferred Mineral Resources are included in the PEA project design and projected economics

    • 2016 PEA mine plan captures an additional 6.5 billion pounds of copper at essentially the same tonnage throughput

    • Result is significant economic improvement over 2016 PFS mine plan

    Since the 2016 PEA, exploration success has dramatically increased Iron Cap’s Indicated and Inferred Resources; now

    423 Mt and 1,900 Mt, respectively

    The 2016 PEA mine plan captures an additional 6.5B lbs Cu

  • KSM – 2016 Preliminary Economic Assessment

    21

    The PEA incorporates Deep Kerr and Lower Iron Cap with170k tpd throughput capacity

    Note: As the PEA is preliminary in nature, it includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Numbers above have been rounded.

  • Courageous Lake

    28

    • At 6.5M oz, (91 million tonnes at 2.2 gpTAu) Courageous Lake (“CL”) is Canada’s 2nd largest undeveloped gold reserve (KSM is 1st)

    • Excellent open pit grade of 2.2 gpt Au

    • 2012 Preliminary Feasibility Study shows profitable project with exceptional leverage to higher gold prices

    • Wholly owned 53 km greenstone belt provides excellent exploration potential

    • Located in Northwest Territories within 100 km of Diavik and Ekati, two large operating open pit diamond mines

  • Courageous Lake – Project Location

    29

    • Project located on winter ice road, in close proximity to the Diavik and Ekati mines– Demonstrating that year round

    open pit bulk tonnage operations are feasible

    • Nearby mines provide “real-time” estimates for capital and operating costs– Additionally, with mines scheduled

    to close over the next several years, a local and trained workforce will be readily available

    34

    • Existing 6.5M oz reserve (91 million tonnes at 2.2 gpT Au) covers only2 km of an under explored green-stone belt that stretches 53 km– Owned 100% by Seabridge

    • Two former producing mines on belt (Salmita and Tundra) had average grades of ~1 opt Au (30 gpt)

    • Seabridge now exploring for additional deposits that could extend the estimated 15 year mine life– With potentially higher grades

    mined in early years

    Approximately 50% higher grade than Courageous Lake’s reserves

    Note: Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Inferred mineral resources have a high degree of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category.

  • SnipGold Acquisition

    37

    • In June 2016 Seabridge issued 695,000 shares to acquire 100% of SnipGold to obtain 100% of very large Iskut Project

    • Iskut Project reports 2.2 million ounces of NI 43-101 measured and indicated gold resources at the Bronson Slope prospect

    • Iskut historically produced high-grade gold and hosts many unexplored targets for high-grade gold and porphyry deposits

    • Iskut is located 30 kilometers from KSM, offering optimal synergies for Seabridge knowledge and infrastructure

    • 2019 exploration program confirms large porphyry target below Quartz Rise lithocap – 2020 drill program to test new target

  • Iskut Location and Access

  • Snowstorm Acquisition

    • In June 2017 Seabridge acquired 100% of the Snowstorm gold project in Nevada from Paulson & Co. for 700,000 common shares plus 500,000 common share purchase warrants

    • Snowstorm sits on the intersection of three major Nevada gold belts: Getchell, Carlin and the Northern Nevada Rift Zone

    • Geologic, geochem and geophysical data documents hydrothermal alteration zones and structural settings consistent with large Nevada gold deposits

    • Snowstorm is contiguous and on strike with several large producing gold projects including Getchell/Turquoise Ridge, Twin Creeks and Midas

    • Seabridge’s 2020 drill program focused on Twin Creeks and Turquoise Ridge type targets

  • Snowstorm/Goldstorm Location

  • New Discoveries are Lagging Production

    42

    • From 1990 to 1999, the industry on average found 1.4 ounces of gold reserves and resources for every ounce produced

    • For 2000 to 2009, only 0.7 ounces of gold reserves and resources were found for every ounce produced

    • For 2010 to 2016, the industry estimates that at best 0.3 ounces of gold may have been found per ounce produced

    • The majors need new deposits with scale and capital efficiency that can be permitted in safe jurisdictions…KSM checksall the boxes
