"Having a large asset like this there's just not that many of them. Pretty simply because there just hasn't been enough copper mines built over the past decade. Western Copper & Gold is a very simple company. We've got one asset, the Casino Copper Gold Project located up in the Yukon. This is a project that today has an IRR of 24 % and a net present value of over 2.6 billion dollars. This is a large copper gold asset located in a mining friendly jurisdiction up in the Yukon. Nine million ounces of gold in reserve plus another 9 million ounces in an inferred resource. On the copper side, four and a half billion pounds of copper in reserve and five point four inferred resource. So we are the sixth largest gold deposit, the gold.
Out of all the global projects that are junior mining companies controlling. So we think that's pretty important. We were very pleased last year when the federal government and the Yukon government made this announcement. That infrastructure package was three roads and one of those roads is the road to our casino. Were located right next to Gold Corp's coffee project. Moreover, the goal of the company is to continue to get the project fully permitted," Paul West-Sells, President & CEO of Western Copper & Gold.
