This key addition comes at a crucial juncture for the company, aiming to leverage Singh’s extensive experience in the mining sector and capital markets.
Singh, who previously held the position of President and CEO at Osisko Gold Royalties, brings over two decades of industry expertise, particularly in strategic and capital market planning. His appointment is expected to significantly bolster Western Copper and Gold’s strategic direction and operational efficiency, especially in advancing the Casino project, a venture anticipated to unlock substantial value for the company and its stakeholders.
Dr. Paul West-Sells will continue to play a pivotal role within the organization as President, working in tandem with Singh to achieve the company’s ambitious goals.

The company, under Singh’s leadership, is poised to embark on a new phase of growth, focusing on maximizing the potential of the Casino project and enhancing shareholder value through strategic and operational excellence.
