| Announcement summary: | VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 29, 2021 /CNW/ – Western Copper and Gold Corporation (“Western” or the “Company”) (TSX: WRN) (NYSE American: WRN) is pleased to announce assay results from the initial nine holes of the 2021 diamond drilling program at its wholly-owned Casino Project in the Yukon Territory, Canada. The program, developed with input from Rio Tinto, comprised a total of 6,074.97 metres in 22 holes. The results from these nine drill holes essentially confirmed or, in some cases, improved upon historical drilling in the area. This confirmation, and in some cases an increase in grades and/or extension of higher-grade zones, are important achievements of these initial results. At Casino, higher grades are hosted mostly by intrusive breccias and, in the Deposit Core, also by Patton Porphyry intrusive rock. DDH21-07, -08, and -09, which were drilled east of the Deposit Core, indicate that higher grades also occur in the Dawson Batholith proximal to the brecciated rocks. |
