  Updated Preliminary Economic Assessment Completed for Seabridge's KSM Project

10% Reduction in Initial Capital and 11% Lower Unit Operating Costs
Generate Improved Economics over 2008 Study

Press Release
Source: Seabridge Gold Inc.
On Thursday July 30, 2009, 8:00 am EDT

TORONTO, CANADA--(Marketwire - 07/30/09) - Seabridge Gold Inc. (TSX:SEA -
News)(AMEX:SA - News) announced today positive results from an updated National
Instrument 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") for its 100% owned KSM
project located in northern British Columbia, Canada. The Executive Summary from
the updated PEA can be found at www.seabridgegold.net/KSM-ES2009. The complete
PEA will be filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

Seabridge President and CEO Rudi Fronk stated that the updated PEA "shows that
we are continuing to improve the economics of this outstanding project. Changes
in design and a reduction in the strip ratio have materially reduced capital and
operating costs compared to our 2008 study. The updated PEA confirms that KSM
can be a significant gold producer at a total cost per ounce well below the gold
industry average with the added benefits of a very long mine life within a
stable political environment. We are now undertaking final in-fill drilling,
engineering and environmental programs which will allow us to complete a
Preliminary Feasibility Study in early 2010. At that point, we will have
successfully taken the KSM project to reserve status."

Similar to the 2008 study, the updated PEA envisages a large tonnage open-pit
mining operation at 120,000 metric tonnes per day of mill feed to a flotation
mill which would produce a combined gold/copper/silver concentrate for transport
by truck or pipeline to the nearby deep-sea port at Stewart, B.C. A separate
molybdenum concentrate and gold-silver dore will also be produced at the
processing facility.

Two mine plans are considered in the updated PEA: (i) a 30 year mine life
designed to maximize a 5% net present value discounted mining schedule; and (ii)
an extended 45+ year mine life based on larger pits designed to maximize total
undiscounted net cash flow for the project. Both the 30 Year and the extended
mine life scenarios would follow a similar development path and capital payback
would occur in the same time frame for both scenarios. Although the extended
mine life scenario provides useful information, the updated PEA concentrated on
the 30 Year scenario which will be used in the preparation of a Preliminary
Feasibility Study and in Seabridge's ongoing permitting program. Production
highlights for the updated 30 year mine life are as follows (note the higher
gold production in the earlier years):

Initial capital costs for KSM are now estimated at US$3.08 billion, compared to
US$3.43 billion in the 2008 study, a reduction of approximately US$350 million,
or about 10%. Reduced mine equipment requirements and several project design
changes contributed to the reduced capital costs. A revised mining schedule
optimized the mining operation by reducing waste-to-ore stripping ratio. The
primary grinding plant is now located at the Mitchell mine site allowing ore to
be transported by slurry pipelines and pumping stations (rather than conveyors)
through a tunnel to a further processing site near the tailings management area
with access to Highway 37. A high pressure grinding roll (HPGR) circuit now
replaces the SAG mill circuit used in the 2008 study. The HPGR circuit will be
refined subject to future test work. Rather than using a single large tunnel for
ore transport and delivery of supplies to Mitchell, two smaller tunnels have
been shown to be more cost effective, facilitating construction, ventilation and
operational efficiencies. One of the tunnels will be used to transport ore
slurry from Mitchell while returning water, diesel fuel and electrical power to
the KSM mine site. The other tunnel will be used for transport of personnel and
supplies to the Mitchell mine site from the plant location near Highway 37.
After delivery of the slurry to the process plant, further primary grinding
prior to flotation will be accomplished with efficient tower mills rather than
ball mills.

Average mine, process and G&A operating costs over the project's life (including
pre-stripping and waste handling) are now estimated at US$10.57 per tonne milled
(before base metal credits) compared to US$11.89 per tonne milled in the 2008
study, a reduction of about 11%. Operating costs have been improved from the
2008 study by a new mine schedule which reduced waste-to-ore strip ratios,
resulting in lower equipment and manpower requirements. Additionally, the use of
the HPGR grinding and further regrinding with tower mills reduced operating
costs for grinding media and electrical power.

A base case economic evaluation was undertaken incorporating historical
three-year trailing averages for metal prices as of June 30, 2009. This approach
is consistent with the guidance of the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission, is accepted by the Ontario Securities Commission and is industry
standard. An alternate case was also constructed using more conservative metal
prices. Finally, a case was prepared using recent spot metal prices. The pre-tax
economic results in U.S. dollars for all three cases are as follows:

Note: Operating and total costs per ounce of gold are after base metal credits.
In the Base Case, using 3 year average base metal price assumptions results in a
negative estimated cash operating cost for gold.

Seabridge notes that the updated PEA incorporates inferred mineral resources
which are considered too geologically speculative to be categorized as mineral
reserves. Therefore, Seabridge advises that there can be no certainty that the
estimates contained in the updated PEA will be realized. To address this issue,
drilling is now underway designed to upgrade the 277 million tonnes of inferred
resource contained in the 30 year mine plan to the measured and indicated
categories.

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 Corporation'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 Corporation'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 other government requirements;
fluctuations in the price of gold and other risks and uncertainties, including
those described in the Corporation's Annual Information Form filed with SEDAR in
Canada (available at www.sedar.com) for the year ended December 31, 2008 and in
the Corporation's Annual Report Form 20-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 Corporation's management or its independent professional consultants on the
date the statements are made.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD

Rudi Fronk, President & C.E.O.
