Western Copper And Gold: Copper-Gold "Casino" Asset Improves Outlook In Yukon
Western Copper and Gold Corporation (WRN) is rated a "Buy" despite a -19.29% return, due to strong long-term prospects and strategic importance of future Yukon production of copper and gold. The Casino project in the Yukon promises low-cost production of several metals, including copper and gold, over many decades, supported by optimistic forecasts for metals prices, and favourable Fed actions. The project's viability is enhanced by significant mineral reserves, strategic location and potential cost savings in transportation, metal ore processing and energy procurement. These are also risk reduction factors.
