VANCOUVER, BC: Western Copper and Gold Corporation (“Western” or the “Company”) (TSX:WRN; NYSE MKT:WRN) is pleased to announce that it is conducting a non-brokered private placement for 500,000 flow-through common shares involving certain insiders of the Company at a price of $0.80 per share for gross proceeds of $400,000.

The gross proceeds from this private placement, which is subject to regulatory acceptance, will be used for qualifying Canadian Exploration Expenses. Closing is expected to occur on or about October 5, 2012.

Certain directors and officers of the Company may acquire securities under the private placement. Any such participation would be considered to be a “related party transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). The transaction will be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of any shares issued to or the consideration paid by such persons will exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to sell any of the securities in the United States. The securities described herein have not been and may never be registered under the United States Securities act of 1993, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable law or unless an exception from registration is available.
