On November 14, 2025, the Company announced the appointment of Mr. Mark E. Smith to its board of directors (the "Board").

On June 14, 2025, following the voting results from the Company's Annual General Meeting, the Company announced the appointment of Ms. Pamela O'Hara to the Board. Dr. Bill Williams and Ms. Tara Christie did not stand for re-election.

On January 2, 2025, the Company announced it had completed its previously announced management succession process. Dr. Paul West-Sells' role as President of the Company concluded on December 31, 2024, and Mr. Sandeep Singh assumed the role of President alongside his existing responsibilities as CEO.

The Casino Project is in the environmental assessment and permitting phase. The Company submitted its Environmental and Socio-economic Effects Statement (the "ESE Statement") for the proposed Casino Project on October 6, 2025, to the Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Board ("YESAB"), the Yukon's independent assessment body established under the Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Act ("YESAA"). The Company is actively engaged with YESAB, relevant government agencies and First Nations in connection with the process (the "Panel" and "Panel Review").

The ESE Statement details the assessment of potential project-related and cumulative environmental and socio-economic effects for Valued Environmental and Socio-economic Components ("VESECs"). With the implementation of a comprehensive suite of environmental management measures, including mitigation measures, management and monitoring plans, and an adaptive management approach, project-related residual effects and any cumulative residual effects were assessed to be not significant across all VESECs.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

The next step after submission involves a sufficiency review by YESAB's Executive Committee. The purpose of this review is to determine whether the ESE Statement contains sufficient information to move forward in the Panel Review or whether YESAB requires supplemental information. Following its review, on February 2, 2026, the Executive Committee determined that supplemental information is required and issued a series of information requests for the Company to address. Once the requested supplemental information has been submitted and deemed sufficient, YESAB will finalize the Terms of Reference, establish the Panel, and the Panel will commence its technical review of the ESE Statement through a structured information request process.

On March 2, 2026, the Government of Yukon announced a restructuring of its Mineral Resources Branch, creating a dedicated Major Mines and Technical Services branch and establishing a Deputy Minister's Oversight Committee on Major Mines and Critical Minerals. These measures are designed to improve coordination, reduce permitting delays, and provide regulatory certainty for mine development projects in the territory.

The Company engaged MNP LLP, a Canadian accounting and consulting firm, to conduct updated economic impact modeling that quantifies Casino's direct, indirect, and induced economic effects across Canada.

- Economic Growth: Over its proposed 27-year mine life, Casino is estimated to contribute over C$44 billion to Canada's GDP, including over C$37 billion in the Yukon.

- Job Creation: Casino would directly employ approximately 700 workers and create an additional 2,000 jobs across suppliers, contractors, and local businesses, generating over C$12 billion in wages and salaries over the mine life.

- Government Revenues: Each year, Casino is forecasted to generate C$175 million in tax revenue for the Government of Yukon and C$231 million for the Government of Canada.

- Critical Minerals Production in Canada: Casino is positioned to become one of North America's largest producers of copper and molybdenum - both included on Canada's official list of critical minerals, with copper designated as one of six priority critical minerals essential for economic growth.

The Company continues to provide updates on infrastructure initiatives supporting the development of the Casino Project, including the Yukon-B.C. Grid Connect Project, Yukon Resource Gateway Project, and the Port of Skagway Transportation Study.

On September 17, 2024, Natural Resources Canada ("NRCan") conditionally approved $40 million in funding to advance pre-feasibility work for a high-voltage transmission energy corridor connecting the isolated Yukon electrical grid to the North American grid in British Columbia (the "Grid Connect"). Western is pleased to report that the conditions for this funding have been met by the Yukon Development Corporation ("YDC"), an entity of the Government of Yukon, which included a 25% YDC funding commitment over and above the $40 million from NRCan. Subsequently, a contribution agreement with NRCan was officially signed in Ottawa on February 14, 2025, where project planning activities have since commenced. With its significant industrial load, the Casino Project is central to the concept behind the Grid Connect - its advancement signals confidence in the Casino Project's potential and its role in shaping the Yukon's future infrastructure. While Western continues to advance LNG as the Casino Project's base case power solution, the Company looks forward to working alongside YDC and First Nations to help make the grid connection a success.

On October 1, 2025, YDC published a report on the shared benefits of the Grid Connect, noting that the project links Canada's northwest to the North American grid. The transmission line would electrify several diesel-reliant communities and significant critical mineral developments in the Yukon and B.C.'s Northwest Corridor. Additionally, according to the report, the Grid Connect could unlock up to C$7.6 billion per year in clean economic growth, support more than 36,000 long-term jobs, and enable up to 2,000 MW of new renewable energy. The report identifies the Casino Project as a potential source of stable baseload demand that could support the transmission line's economic viability.

On November 13, 2025, Prime Minister Carney referred the Northwest Critical Conservation Corridor - including the proposed Yukon-B.C. Grid Connect - to the Major Projects Office ("MPO") to accelerate the development and delivery of this nation-building project. The Company welcomes the federal recognition of this corridor and its extraordinary potential to advance critical minerals development and clean power transmission, while upholding Indigenous rights and supporting Indigenous project leadership.

On March 22, 2025, the Government of Yukon announced the inclusion of the Dempster Highway in the Yukon Resource Gateway Project ("Gateway Project"), expanding the scope of the initiative to include Arctic security and regional connectivity. Whilst positive for the Yukon, a portion of funding previously allocated to the Casino Copper-Gold Access Road has been redirected to support this near-term priority. Western remains in close collaboration with the Yukon government, and discussions on future funding are expected to advance as the project moves through the environmental assessment process, which includes the road.

Western has completed an updated transportation study evaluating options for shipping concentrate from the Casino Project to the Port of Skagway ("Skagway"). The study, conducted in collaboration with the Municipality of Skagway and the Government of Yukon, assessed both bulk and containerized transportation methods, assessed infrastructure requirements at Skagway, and provided feasibility-level capital and operating cost estimates across multiple scenarios. Several promising transportation alternatives were identified, with costs broadly in-line with, or lower than, the Company's 2022 feasibility study estimates. The Municipality of Skagway at its Borough Assembly Meeting on August 21, 2025, re-iterated its support for the transportation study, mineral shipments and related permitting at Skagway.

The Company prioritizes early and ongoing engagement with Yukon Communities and First Nations. Western is actively building relationships with Yukon First Nations whose Traditional Territories are affected by the Casino Project. Engagement is on-going and has consistently increased as the Casino Project advances through the environmental assessment and permitting process, including ongoing meetings, open house events, workshops, community sessions, and site visits. Input from affected First Nations has helped inform project planning and design, including environmental monitoring and key elements such as access, tailings management, and closure planning. To date, the Casino Project has completed Traditional Land Use Studies, entered into capacity and other project agreements.

On March 27, 2024, the Company announced the results from the 2023 drilling program (the "Drill Program") at the Casino Project. The Drill Program was developed by Western's Technical and Sustainability Committee, which is comprised of members from Western, Rio Tinto and Mitsubishi Materials.

The 2023 Drill Program consisted of seven holes for 2,244 m ranging from 130 m to 556 m in length. The drill holes were located inside the current pit boundaries and were selected to provide a range of grades, host rocks, and mineralogy. The drill holes were also selected to convert indicated mineral resources to measured mineral resources.

Results from the Drill Program continued to show the importance of the Core Zone wherein relatively higher grades are encountered.

The Drill Program also included 783 m of geotechnical and hydrogeological drilling designed by Knight-Piesold Consulting, which targeted the ground conditions of the proposed open pit, stockpiles, tailings management facility, heap leaching facility, new airstrip, and the proposed Ranney well site.

On February 13, 2025, the Company announced results from a supplemental metallurgical program (the "Metallurgical Program") for the Casino Project.

The Metallurgical Program used drill core composites of material representing potential mill feed taken from the Drill Program with more variable copper, gold, and molybdenum levels than had been tested in previous drill campaigns and from a broader period of planned mining. The fifteen composites of approximately 200 kg were subjected to detailed mineralogy, comminution testing, flotation testing and detailed analysis of copper concentrates. Composite preparation and all metallurgical test work was completed at ALS Metallurgy in Kamloops, B.C.

Standard processing methods continue to produce good recoveries for copper and gold, consistent with previous metallurgical work. The program achieved significantly higher recoveries for molybdenum. Casino would produce a high gold grade copper concentrate and a separate molybdenum concentrate. Both are expected to be highly marketable given the very low levels of impurities.

The outline of the Metallurgical Program and the review of the results were completed by Western's Technical and Sustainability Committee, which is comprised of members from Western, Rio Tinto and Mitsubishi Materials.

On June 28, 2022, the Company released the results of its Feasibility Study (the "Study") on the Casino Project. The Study considered the Project being constructed as an open pit mine, with a concentrator processing 120,000 tonnes per day (t/d) to recover copper, gold, molybdenum and silver, as well as a 25,000 t/d oxide heap leach facility to recover gold, silver and copper.

The Study supersedes all previous studies and incorporates an updated mineral resource estimate with an effective date of April 29, 2022, and mineral reserve estimate with an effective date of June 13, 2022. The Study examines the development of the Casino Project, which comprises the processing of 1.43 billion tonnes of Mineral Reserve for both the mill and heap leach, with deposition of mill tailings and mine waste in the Tailings Management Facility ("TMF") consistent with the design concepts considered during the Best Available Tailings Technology ("BATT") Study as a base case development.

The Mineral Reserve estimate is based on an updated open pit mine plan and mine production schedule using commodity prices of US$3.25 per pound copper, US$1,700 per ounce gold, US$12.00 per pound molybdenum and US$22.00 per ounce silver.

All of the mineralization included in the Mineral Reserve estimate with respect to the Casino Project is contained on mineral titles controlled by Western. The following table presents the Mineral Reserve that is the basis for this Study.

1. The Mineral Reserve estimate has an effective date of June 13, 2022, and was prepared using the CIM Definition Standards (10 May 2014).

3. Mineral Reserves are based on commodity prices of US$3.25/lb Cu, US$1550/oz Au, US$12.00/lb Mo, and US$22.00/oz Ag.

4. Mineral Reserves amenable to milling are based on NSR cutoffs that vary by time period to balance mine and plant production capacities. They range from a low of $6.11/t to a high of $25.00/t.

5. NSR value for supergene (SOX and SUS) mill material is NSR (C$/t) = $73.63 x recoverable copper (%) + $40.41 x gold (g/t) + $142.11 x moly (%) + 0.464 x silver (g/t), based on recoveries of 69% gold, 52.3% molybdenum and 60% silver. Recoverable copper = 0.94 x (total copper - soluble copper).

6. NSR value for hypogene (HYP) mill material is NSR (C$/t) = $67.88 x copper (%) + $38.66 x gold (g/t) + $213.78 x moly (%) + $0.386 x silver (g/t), based on recoveries of 92.2% copper, 66% gold, 78.6% molybdenum and 50% silver.

7. Mineral Reserves amenable to heap leaching are based on an NSR cutoff of $6.61/t.

8. NSR value for leach material is NSR (C$/t) = $14.05 x copper (%) + $47.44 x gold (g/t) + $0.210 x silver (g/t), based on recoveries of 18% copper, 80% gold and 26% silver.

9. AuEq and CuEq values are based on prices of US$ 3.25/lb Cu, US$ 1550/oz Au, US$ 12.00/lb Mo, and US$ 22.00/oz Ag, and account for all metal recoveries and smelting/refining charges.

10. The NSR calculations also account for smelter/refinery treatment charges and payables.

On August 9, 2022, the Company filed a technical report titled "Casino Project, Form NI 43-101F1 Technical Report Feasibility, Yukon, Canada" with an effective date of June 13, 2022 (the "Report"). The Report summarizes the results of the Feasibility Study on the Casino Project, which results were first reported by the Company in a news release dated June 28, 2022.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

The Company recorded a gain on marketable securities of $2,100 during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a gain of $775,000 during the same period in 2025 as a result of changes in the share price of the marketable securities held by the Company at each period end date.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $36,044,318 as at March 31, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - $22,259,937). Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $134,355,648 as at March 31, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - $50,533,286). Western's net working capital (current assets less current liabilities) as at March 31, 2026 totaled $132,190,695 (December 31, 2025 - $48,708,424).

Western is an exploration and permitting stage company. As at the date of this MD&A, the Company has not earned any production revenue. It depends heavily on its working capital balance and its ability to raise funds through capital markets to finance its operations. Although the Company expects that the current cash and short-term investments on hand will be sufficient to fund anticipated operating activities in the next twelve months, it will require significant additional funding to complete the development and construction of the Casino mine.

The significant components of operating activities are discussed in the Results of Operations section above.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company completed a bought deal public offering for net proceeds $86,453,493. Additionally, the Company received $1,649,468 from the exercise of stock options and expended $43,944 on lease payments.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company received $1,275,000 from the exercise of warrants and expended $19,288 on lease payments.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

The table below summarizes the actual use of proceeds incurred up to March 31, 2026, compared to the expected use of proceeds from the bought deal offering documents ¹:

Investing activities include both mineral property expenditures, and purchases and redemptions of short-term investments. Investments with an original maturity of greater than three months are considered short-term investments for accounting purposes. Purchases and redemptions of short-term investments are mainly driven by cash requirements and available interest rates.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company purchased, on a net basis, $69,910,192 in short term investments and spent $3,181,469 on its exploration and evaluation asset.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company redeemed, on a net basis, $1,243,806 in short term investments and spent $4,334,741 on its exploration and evaluation asset.

A summary of activities relating to the Casino Project is available under the Casino Project Update section at the beginning of this MD&A.

As at the date of this MD&A, the Company has 225,633,450 common shares outstanding. The Company also has 6,473,927 stock options outstanding with exercise prices ranging from $1.35 to $4.18, 1,782,118 restricted share units and 645,163 deferred share units to be settled by way of common shares issued from treasury.

The Company leases office space and a vehicle in Whitehorse, Yukon. The future minimum lease payments by calendar year, presented on an undiscounted basis, are as follows:

¹ As per Short Form Prospectus dated February 20, 2026. Excludes expected use of proceeds for general corporate and working capital.

² Up to March 31, 2026

(Expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

The Company entered into a lease agreement for an office space on November 19, 2025, however had not taken possession as of March 31, 2026, as the premise was not available for use. The committed future lease payments, on an undiscounted basis, are reflected in the table above.

The Company's key management includes its directors and officers. The remuneration of key management during the periods presented was as follows:

Share-based payments represent the fair value of stock options, RSUs and DSUs previously granted to directors and officers during the periods presented above. Salaries and share-based payments for certain officers are capitalized in exploration and evaluation assets and the balance is recognized in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded a bonus accrual of $279,103 (2025 - $181,501), which is recorded in salaries and director fees above.

All related party transactions are disclosed in the above Key Management Compensation section. There were no additional related party transactions.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS accounting standards requires the exercise of judgement in the process of applying its accounting policies and to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Differences may be material.

The carrying amount of the Company's exploration and evaluation assets represents costs net of write-downs and recoveries to date and does not necessarily reflect present or future values. Recovery of capitalized costs is dependent on successful development of economic mining operations or the disposition of the related mineral properties.

The Company is required to make significant judgements in assessing whether there are any indicators of impairment relating to its exploration and evaluation asset. If any such indicator exists, then an impairment test is performed by management. Indicators of impairment may include (i) the period for which the entity has the right to explore in the specific area has expired during the year or will expire; (ii) substantive expenditures on further exploration for the evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor planned; (iii) sufficient data exists to support that extracting the resources will not be technically feasible or commercially viable; and (iv) development or sale of a specific area is unlikely to recover existing exploration and evaluation asset costs. If any of these indicators are present, management would need to assess whether the exploration and evaluation asset should be impaired. There are no indicators of impairment as of March 31, 2026.

Judgment is required in assessing whether a mineral property is in the exploration and evaluation phase and should be classified as an exploration and evaluation asset or if the exploration and evaluation phase has been completed and the mineral property should be reclassified as property and equipment. We determined that although a feasibility study for the Casino Project has been completed, the Company has not yet received the necessary licenses and permits required to consider the exploration and evaluation stage to have been completed.

Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments

Effective January 1, 2026, the Company adopted certain amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7). These amendments updated classification and measurement requirements in IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and related disclosure requirements in IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The IASB clarified the recognition and derecognition date of certain financial assets and liabilities, and amended the requirements related to settling financial liabilities using an electronic payment system. It also clarified how to assess the contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets in determining whether they meet the solely payments of principal and interest criterion, including financial assets that have environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG)-linked features and other similar contingent features. The IASB added disclosure requirements for financial instruments with contingent features that do not relate directly to basic lending risks and costs and amended disclosures relating to equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income.

The amendments are effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026 and adoption of these amendments did not have a material effect on our condensed interim consolidated financial statements. For financial liabilities settled in cash using an electronic payment system, we applied the election to deem these financial liabilities to be discharged before the settlement date. The amendments have been applied retrospectively with no restatement of comparative information, in accordance with transition requirements on initial application of IFRS 9.

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Statements (IFRS 18), which replaces IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces a specified structure for the income statement by requiring income and expenses to be presented into the three defined categories of operating, investing and financing, and by specifying certain defined totals and subtotals. Where company-specific measures related to the income statement are provided, IFRS 18 requires companies to disclose explanations around these measures, which are referred to as management-defined performance measures. IFRS 18 also provides additional guidance on principles of aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and the notes. IFRS 18 will not affect the recognition and measurement of items in the financial statements, nor will it affect which items are classified in other comprehensive income and how these items are classified. The standard is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, including for interim financial statements. Retrospective application is required, and early application is permitted. Management is currently assessing the effect of this new standard on our financial statements.

As of March 31, 2026, there are no other IFRS or IFRIC interpretations with future effective dates that are expected to have a material impact on the Company.

Management is responsible for designing, establishing, and maintaining a system of internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR") to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada.

WESTERN COPPER AND GOLD CORPORATION	MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
	Three months ended March 31, 2026
(Expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

There has been no change in the Company's ICFR system during the three months ended March 31, 2026, that materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Management is responsible for designing, establishing, and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that material information relating to the Company is made known to management, particularly during the period in which the annual filings are being prepared and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted by it under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation.

The President & CEO and the CFO evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our President & CEO and CFO concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at December 31, 2025 and as of March 31, 2026, there has been no change in our disclosure controls and procedures.

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's risk management framework. The Company has exposure to liquidity, credit, and market risk from the use of financial instruments. Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, marketable securities, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company closely monitors its liquidity position and endeavours to ensure it has adequate sources of funding to finance its projects and operations. Some of the Company's cash is invested in redeemable GICs, which are highly liquid investments and available to discharge obligations when they come due. The Company does not maintain a line of credit.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. These financial instruments are at risk to the extent that the institutions issuing or holding them cannot redeem amounts when they are due or requested. To limit its credit risk, the Company uses a restrictive investment policy. Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are held with Schedule 1 chartered banks in Canada. Substantially all cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments held with financial institutions exceed government-insured limits. We have established credit policies that seek to minimize our credit risk by entering into transactions with investment grade credit worthy and reputable financial institutions. The carrying amount of financial assets, other than marketable securities, recorded in the financial statements represents Western's maximum exposure to credit risk.

The Company is exposed to market risk because of the fluctuating values of its publicly traded marketable securities. The Company has no control over these fluctuations and does not hedge its investments. Marketable securities are adjusted to fair value at each balance sheet date.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Company's financial assets and liabilities are not exposed to interest rate risk due to their short-term nature and maturity. Cash and equivalents and short-term investments are subject to fixed interest rates. The Company is not subject to interest rate risk.

Information contained in this MD&A that are not historical facts are forward-looking information and forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable securities legislation and involve risks and uncertainties (collectively, "forward-looking statements"). Certain forward-looking information may also be considered future-oriented financial information ("FOFI") as that term is defined in NI 51-102. The purpose of disclosing FOFI is to provide a general overview of management's expectations regarding prospective financial performance, financial position or cash flows and readers are cautioned that the assumptions used in the preparation of such information, although considered reasonable at the time of preparation, may provide to be imprecise or inaccurate and, as such, undue reliance should not be placed on FOFI. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the future price of metals; the estimation of mineral reserves and mineral resources, the realization of mineral reserve estimates; the results of metallurgical testing programs; the timing and amount of any estimated future production, costs of production, and capital expenditures; project schedules; the Company's proposed plan for its properties, including the development of the Casino Project; recommended work programs; costs and timing of the development of new deposits; success of exploration and permitting activities; permitting timelines; currency fluctuations; requirements for additional capital; government policy between Canada and the United States, including potential tariffs and retaliatory tariffs, regulation of mineral exploration or mining operations; environmental risks; the review of the submitted Environmental and Socio-economic Effects Statement and the timing thereof; unanticipated reclamation expenses; title disputes or claims; limitations on insurance coverage; the timing and possible outcome of potential litigation; the potential advancement of a high-voltage transmission line network connecting the Yukon electrical grid to the North American grid in British Columbia; and the impact of potential global pandemics on the Company's business and operations. In certain cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "plans", "expects", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may" or "may not", "could", "would" or "would not", "might" or "will be", "occur" or "be achieved". Such statements are included, among other places, under the heading "Casino Project Update" in this MD&A and may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding perceived merit of properties; mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates; exploration and evaluation expenditures; results of the Study (including projected economic returns, operating costs, capital costs and other financial results in connection with the Casino Project); cash flow forecasts; exploration results at the Company's properties; budgets; work programs; permitting and other timelines; the Company's engagement with local communities; estimated timing for construction of, and production from, any new projects; market price of precious and base metals; expectations regarding future price assumptions, financial performance; or other statements that are not statements of historical fact.

Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions, including material estimates and assumptions related to the factors set forth below that, while considered reasonable by the Company as at the date of this MD&A in light of management's experience and perception of current conditions and expected developments, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. The material assumptions used to develop the forward-looking statements herein include assumptions that (1) political and legal developments in jurisdictions where Western operates, or may in the future operate, being consistent with Western's current expectations, (2) prevailing and projected market prices and foreign exchange rates, exploitation and exploration estimates will not change in a materially adverse manner, (3) requisite capital and financing will be available on acceptable terms, (4) equipment and personnel required for permitting, construction and operations will be available on a continual basis, (5) no unforeseen disruptions or delays, unexpected geological or other effects, equipment failures, or permitting including any disruptions caused any future pandemics or any other unforeseen disruptions or delays that would have an adverse effect on Western's operations, (6) equipment, labour and materials costs increasing on a basis consistent with Western's current expectations, and (7) general economic, market or business conditions will not change in a materially adverse manner and as more specifically disclosed throughout this document, and in the AIF and Form 40-F.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Western and its subsidiaries to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and other factors include, among others, history of losses and negative operating cash flow; risks inherit to mineral exploration and development activities; uncertainties relating to interpretation of drill results and the geology, continuity and grade of mineral deposits; risks related to the potential loss of the Company's properties; uncertainty as to timely availability of permits and licenses and other governmental approvals; risks related to the Company's dependence on a single project; title risks; price fluctuations of the Common Shares; risks surrounding statutory and regulatory compliance; risks surrounding environmental laws and regulations; risks surrounding land reclamation costs; operational risks surrounding the remote location of assets; risks surrounding Western's ability to maintain its infrastructure; risks involved in fluctuations in gold, copper and other commodity prices; uncertainty of estimates of capital and operating costs, recovery rates, production estimates, and estimated economic return; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; risks related to the cooperation of government agencies and Indigenous peoples in the exploration and development of Western's property; volatility in the price of metals; climate change risks; risks related to fluctuations in currency exchange rates; risks surrounding dilution of the Common Shares; dependence on members of management and key personnel; competition risks; inflation risks; risks related to macro-economic factors including global financial volatility; potential natural disasters, terrorist acts, health crises and future pandemics; risks related to the need to obtain additional financing to develop the Company's property and uncertainty as to the availability and terms of future financing; litigation risks; the possibility of delay in exploration or development programs or in construction projects and uncertainty of meeting anticipated program milestones; risks related to potential acquisitions and the integration thereof; risks related to operations; risks related to the feasibility study and the possibility that future exploration and development will not be consistent with the Company's expectations; risks related to joint venture operations; conclusions of economic evaluations; possible variations in mineral reserves, mineral resources, grade or recovery rates; insurance risk; reclamation costs; risks related to conflicts of interest; risks related to internal controls; tax risks, specifically related to the Company's classification as a "passive foreign investment company" under the meaning of Section 1297 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; risks related to information technology and cybersecurity; risks related to regulatory compliance; the Company's history of not paying dividends; and risks related to shareholder activism; impact of any global pandemics and the Russian invasion of Ukraine; and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in the AIF and Form 40-F, each of which provide for a more detailed discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements and the risks that may affect the Company's ability to achieve the expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A.

Although Western has attempted to identify important factors that could affect it and may cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Forward-looking statements may prove to be inaccurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Western does not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events unless required by applicable securities law.

Alternative performance measures in this MD&A, such as "cash cost" and "free cash flow", are used to provide additional information. These non-GAAP performance measures are included in this MD&A because these statistics are used as key performance measures that management uses to monitor and assess performance of the Company's property and to plan and assess the overall effectiveness and efficiency of mining operations. These performance measures do not have a standard meaning within IFRS accounting standards and, therefore, amounts presented may not be comparable to similar data presented by other mining companies. These performance measures should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with IFRS accounting standards.

This MD&A has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada as of the date of this MD&A, which differ in certain material respects from the disclosure requirements of United States securities laws. The terms "mineral reserve", "proven mineral reserve" and "probable mineral reserve" are Canadian mining terms as defined in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the "CIM") - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. The definitions of these terms and other mining terms, such as "inferred mineral resource," differ from the definitions of such terms, if any, for purposes of the disclosure requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

Accordingly, information contained and incorporated by reference into this MD&A that describes the Company's mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by issuers subject to the SEC's reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to domestic United States issuers.
