Perpetua Resources is trading 4% up at $26.97 today after a federal judge upheld the U.S. Forest Service's approval of its Stibnite Gold Project. - The ruling on August 25, 2026, rejected most arguments from environmental groups challenging the project, ensuring its overall plan remains in place despite minor, easily remedied Endangered Species Act deficiencies. - The company is also advancing a comprehensive project financing plan, including the previously approved $2.9 billion EXIM loan, and ongoing detailed engineering for the project, which aims to provide domestic gold and antimony and environmental restoration.
