Description: WRN Western Copper Gold January 01, 2026

Western Copper and Gold Corp. (NYSE MKT: WRN) is an early-stage exploration company headquartered in Vancouver, Canada. It focuses on discovering and developing gold, copper, silver, and molybdenum deposits, with its flagship asset being the Casino mineral property in the Yukon. The firm was incorporated in 2006, rebranded from Western Copper Corp. in October 2011, and operates under the diversified metals & mining sub-industry classification.

Key metrics that investors watch include the company’s cash burn of roughly US$3-4 million per quarter (2024 Q1) and a current market capitalization of about US$45 million, giving it a cash-to-burn runway of just over a year at existing spend levels. The Yukon region benefits from relatively low infrastructure costs and a stable regulatory environment, while sector-wide drivers such as the ongoing copper price rally (≈ US$4.30 lb⁻¹ in early 2024) and strong gold demand (≈ US$2,100 oz⁻¹) enhance the upside potential of multi-metal projects like Casino.
