DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

Canyon Copper Corp. (the “Registrant”) is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (file no. 333-177653) (the “Registration Statement”) to deregister certain shares of the Registrant’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), that were covered by the Registration Statement for issuance under the Registrant’s Amended and Restated 2009 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Registrant filed the Registration Statement, which registered 6,839,693 shares of Common Stock to be offered or sold under the Plan, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 2, 2011.

The Registrant intends to suspend all reporting obligations by filing a Form 15 with the Commission. Accordingly, pursuant to the undertaking contained in the Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold, the Registrant is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to deregister 6,839,693 shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement which remain unissued as of the date of this filing. Upon effectiveness hereof, no shares of Common Stock will remain registered under the Registration Statement for issuance under the Plan.
