• Lion Copper & Gold completed the acquisition of about 183 acres of strategic land tied to the Bear project area in Nevada’s Yerington Copper District.
• The added land expands the Bear area footprint, supporting future infrastructure planning, access, environmental management, and site layout for development work.
• Bear sits within mining assets covered by a Nuton earn-in, under which Rio Tinto’s Nuton can earn at least a 65% stake by funding studies and permitting.
• Nuton’s interest has not yet vested; the parties expect a post-DFS decision on transferring the assets into a vehicle with Nuton at 65%.
