About Lion Copper
Metal Mining, SIC 1000
Lion Copper and Gold Corp. is a mineral exploration and development enterprise dedicated to advancing copper assets in the United States. Its primary focus centers on evaluating and developing the Yerington Copper Project, which encompasses several mineral deposits such as Yerington, MacArthur, and Bear. The company explores potential copper recovery through conventional open-pit mining alongside heap leach processing, solvent extraction, and electrowinning. While the business currently conducts no commercial mining operations and serves no end-user customers, it collaborates with Nuton LLC under an earn-in agreement to finance and progress project studies.
The company holds interests across Nevada, primarily throughout Lyon County covering tens of thousands of acres of mining claims, as well as an exploration royalty in White Pine County and a profit interest in Zacatecas, Mexico. Operations are supported by eight full- and part-time personnel and approximately 50 consultants. Lion Copper and Gold Corp. maintains its corporate head office in Yerington, Nevada.
