The company states it remains on schedule and on budget to complete the DFS in the first quarter of 2027.
Key field programs have been completed in 2026, including the planned hydrogeological and geotechnical drilling and a resource drilling program in the VLT area, which will support mine design and future project evaluation. Engineering and technical studies continue across mine engineering, processing, rail and logistics, infrastructure, water management and environmental work, with many major infrastructure components now in third-party bidding to refine capital cost estimates.
Permitting activities, including environmental baseline studies and agency engagement, are progressing in parallel. The company highlights a recently announced NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate for the Bear Deposit as evidence of district-scale copper potential and notes Nuton’s commitment to fund up to approximately US$31 million under Stage 3 to complete the DFS and support permitting.

Lion Copper & Gold Corp. announced a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the Bear Deposit within the Yerington Copper Project in Nevada.
The estimate outlines an Indicated Resource of 6.71 billion pounds of contained copper (1,064 Mt at 0.29% Cu) and an Inferred Resource of 8.77 billion pounds (1,770 Mt at 0.22% Cu), reported at a 0.10% Cu cut-off within an open-pit shell. The model, effective July 21, 2026, is based on 79 drill holes and 25,825 assays and was prepared in accordance with CIM Definition Standards and NI 43-101 by independent qualified person Tim Maunula.
The company states that the resource remains open for expansion and upgrading and that Bear materially increases its district-scale copper inventory, supporting engineering and mine-planning studies alongside the Yerington Copper Project. Bear forms part of mining assets subject to an Earn-In Agreement under which Nuton LLC may earn at least 65% of a planned project-level LLC if funding milestones and elections are met. Management emphasizes that Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves, do not demonstrate economic viability, and that any future development depends on engineering, permitting, financing, property rights and other factors.

Lion Copper and Gold Corp. has completed an S‑K 1300 Preliminary Feasibility Study and Technical Report for its wholly owned Yerington Copper Project in Nevada. The study defines Proven and Probable mineral reserves of 506.6 million tons grading 0.21% copper, supporting a 12‑year open‑pit, heap‑leach operation.
Total initial and sustaining capital is estimated at $1,731.7M, with life‑of‑mine operating costs of $1.92 per payable pound of copper and all‑in sustaining costs of $2.67 per pound. At a long‑term copper price of $4.30/lb, the project generates a pre‑tax NPV(7%) of $975M and IRR of 16.9%, and post‑tax NPV(7%) of $694M with IRR of 14.6%.
The mine plan contemplates 506.6 million tons of heap‑leach feed at 0.21% copper, with a low overall strip ratio of 0.32:1 and total payable copper production of 1,443 million pounds, or about 120 million pounds per year on average. Processing will use separate oxide and sulfide heap‑leach facilities, including Nuton™ technology for sulfide material, and twin solvent‑extraction circuits feeding a common electrowinning plant.
