Perpetua Resources Corp. (PPTA) is facing a class action lawsuit alleging securities fraud between April 2024 and February 2025. The lawsuit claims the company misled investors about initial capital expenditure for the Stibnite Gold Project by minimizing potential cost increases. On February 13, 2025, Perpetua revealed an additional $952 million in capital expenses, representing a 75% increase from original projections, which caused the stock price to drop 22.39% in a single day.
