Western Copper and Gold Corporation announced positive results from a supplemental metallurgical program for its Casino Copper-Gold Project on February 13, 2025. The program achieved significantly higher recoveries for molybdenum, reaching approximately 90% in hypogene material compared to 71% in the previous Feasibility Study.
The testing confirmed that standard processing methods continue to produce good recoveries for copper and gold, consistent with prior metallurgical work. The project is expected to produce high-grade concentrates with very low impurity levels, which are highly marketable.
Initial coarse particle separation tests also indicated a potential opportunity to increase the primary grind size without compromising recoveries. These results enhance the overall metallurgical characteristics and economic potential of the Casino Project.
