Lion Copper (NASDAQ:LCU) has begun trading on Nasdaq as it advances its Yerington Copper Project in Nevada, US, towards a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) in early 2027.
The shares trade on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol ‘LCU’ and continue to trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) under the same symbol. Existing shareholders do not need to take any action.

Lion Copper is a US-focused development company advancing the Yerington Copper Project in Lyon County, Nevada, a historic copper-producing district with established regional infrastructure.
The company completed a Prefeasibility Study in 2025 and targets DFS completion in Q1 2027. Permitting and other development work are continuing in parallel, and the company plans to produce copper cathode.
Investor relations appointment
Separately, Lion Copper has retained Renmark Financial Communications to handle investor relations.
