Change of Auditor

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") appointment as independent registered public accountant for Lion Copper and Gold Corp. (the "Company") ended effective October 25, 2021. The Company's Audit Committee recommended to the Company's Board of Directors that a change in auditors be approved.

On October 25, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors appointed MNP LLP ("MNP") as the Company's independent auditor.

PwC reports on the Company's financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the subsequent year ended December 31, 2021

(i) there were no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports on the Registrant's financial statements for such years, and


(ii) there were no "reportable events" of the kind described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

On October 25, 2021, the Company by action of its Board of Directors upon the recommendation of the Company's Audit Committee engaged MNP as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf has consulted MNP on items which (i) concerned the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Registrant's financial statements or (ii) concerned the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or reportable events (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of said Item 304).
