Global Copper Market Expected to Reach $548 Billion By 2034 as Bullish Sentiment is Projected Long Term

FinancialNewsMedia.com News Commentary - In the global copper market, the demand for copper is projected to increase in coming years. An article in Forbes said: "The world is running short of copper, and companies and countries are scrambling. This essential metal, a staple of civilization going back to the bronze age, is the lifeblood of existing energy infrastructure and cutting-edge technology. Unfortunately, it faces a projected supply shortfall by 2025 with projections showing a 20% price jump by May 2027 . Annual demand will surge to 36.6 million metric tons by 2031 up from 25.3 million in 2021." Another article in industry source, MetalMiner added : "… the world knows that although the current global copper reserves are sufficient to meet demand, extraction continues to lag behind consumption. As a result, many inside and outside the copper market fear there will be a shortage in the coming years. Predictions say that the annual global demand for copper will increase by about 40% by 2040. There are multiple factors fueling this expected growth, including the global move toward renewable energy and sustainable transportation. Given this current environment, any developments around copper and its mining remain guaranteed to hit the headlines." Active Companies mentioned in the article includes: Brixton Metals Corporation (OTCQB: BBBXF) (TSX-V: BBB), BHP Group Limited (NYSE: BHP), Ivanhoe Electric Inc. (NYSE: IE) (TSX: IE), western copper and gold corporation (NYSE: WRN) (TSX: WRN), Copper Fox Metals Inc. (OTCQX: CPFXF) (TSX-V: CUU).

A report from Precedence Research projected that the global copper market size was USD 318.19 billion in 2023, calculated at USD 333.15 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach around USD 548.20 billion by 2034, expanding at a CAGR of 5.11% from 2024 to 2034. The report continued: "The copper market is a pivotal component within the global economic landscape. Copper, a highly conductive metal with applications spanning various sectors such as electronics, construction, and transportation, plays a fundamental role in contemporary technological advancements, including electric vehicles, telecommunications, and sustainable energy solutions. The market's vitality depends on factors like infrastructure development, industrial performance, and the evolution of cutting-edge technologies. Moreover, the increasing emphasis on environmental sustainability has elevated the significance of copper recycling practices. Consequently, the copper market retains its prominence, demonstrating resilience and adaptability while continuing to evolve in response to changing economic and ecological demands. The Asia Pacific copper market size was valued at USD 124.09 billion in 2023 and is expected to surpass USD 213.80 billion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 5.30% from 2024 to 2034."

western copper and gold corporation ("Western" or the "Company") (TSX: WRN) (NYSE American: WRN) through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Casino Mining Corporation (" Casino ") has submitted to the Yukon Environmental and Socio-Economic Assessment Board ("YESAB") Executive Committee an updated and refined schedule for submission of the Environmental and Socio-economic Effects Statement ("ESE Statement") for the Casino Mine Project. The ESE Statement will form the basis for the Company's assessment application for the Panel Review and will include all the material outlined in the Revised ESE Statement Guidelines issued on September 12, 2023 .

In the schedule, Casino indicates that it plans to submit the ESE Statement in or around July 2025 , which is an update from the previously estimated submission date of the second half of 2024. Ongoing detailed review of the guidelines during the winter of 2023, followed by updated work planning and schedule mapping of our technical consultants, in conjunction with further conversations and development of engagement plans with First Nations, have led to have a clearer picture of the level of effort and associated timelines to produce our ESE Statement.

"Western is committed to ensuring a robust review of the Casino project, as the first and only project in the Yukon going through the highest level of review and relying on the most up to date methodologies in environmental assessment." stated Sandeep Singh , Chief Executive Officer. "It was paramount to me when I joined that I became comfortable with our permitting plan before launching into the panel review process and that we were well funded to navigate the assessment process successfully.

We look forward to compiling all the hard work and proper science that has already gone into the project and moving steadily towards submission. We also continue to closely monitor the situation in the Yukon following the Eagle mine failure. The Company welcomes the proposed investigation of the failure and believe that Casino 's assessment timeline will more than allow for the incorporation of any lessons learned through that process.

We are confident that the Casino project can be a sustainable critical minerals asset for the Yukon , and can be the type of mine that helps improve the Yukon's mining legacy, to the benefit of all Yukoners."

Falcon Reports the Status of Drill Program at Great Burnt Copper Project, Newfoundland

Falcon Gold Corp. (TSXV:FG)(GR:3FA)(OTCQB:FGLDF); ("Falcon" or the "Company") is pleased to report on the status of our inaugural drill program at its 100%-owned Great Burnt Copper Project (the "Property") located in Central Newfoundland. The Company encountered delays earlier this spring due to high water levels in accessing the Property. The Company had to apply for additional permits to build 8 km of additional road to access the drill site, which is anticipated to be completed by the end of the week. The Company will report the status once equipment can be mobilized to the site

Karim Rayani, Chief Executive Officer and director stated: "Falcon is opportunistically positioned in what is shaping up to be Newfoundland's highest-grade copper district. After a small setback in timing, we are nearly ready to commence operations at our 100%-owned Great Burnt Copper Project. We look forward to reporting back on the start date once confirmed. Scheduled drilling is testing up to ten geophysical anomalies with a maximum of 1100 metres of drilling."
