Company Overview

Western Copper and Gold Corporation is a Canada-based mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing one of the world’s largest undeveloped copper-gold deposits. Listed on the NYSE American under the symbol WRN, the company’s primary asset is the Casino Project, located in the Yukon Territory of northern Canada. Western Copper and Gold’s activities are centered on resource definition, engineering studies, environmental assessment and community engagement to prepare the deposit for eventual production.

The Casino Project comprises multiple porphyry-style mineralized zones containing copper, gold, molybdenum and silver. Through systematic drilling campaigns, metallurgical testing and preliminary engineering work, the company has produced a feasibility‐level plan for an open-pit mine complete with a process plant and tailings management facility. Ongoing technical programs are designed to optimize project economics, reduce environmental footprint and support permitting submissions.

Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Western Copper and Gold also maintains a field office near the Casino site to oversee exploration and community relations. The company’s leadership team brings expertise in geology, mining engineering, environmental permitting and capital markets. In parallel with its technical studies, Western Copper and Gold engages with Indigenous communities and local stakeholders to advance sustainable development practices and secure the social license required for long-term operations.
