Maybe you've already discussed about this but I searched on the forum and didn't find anything.
I think she hits her highest note on "suckling the mender" during the second verse. If I'm not wrong it is Do6.
And I have no I idea about her lowest note, but on Tishbites she hits a very low note, probably Mi3.

You might very well be right about that being her highest note, cristian.
And when I was listening to this song recently I noticed for the first time how she descends from that high note to a much lower one when the chorus sets in. I was too distracted by the chorus (and usually singing along with it) to have noticed it before.
It's a beautiful Liz moment.

Don't know about Liz, but Sainkho Namchylyak's lowest note sounds lower and highest note sounds like ultra-sound

I'm not sure about the highest note, but there are some pretty high ones in Golden Vein from Twinlights.

Ps. Does anyone know if there was ever a studio version of that song?

Now I've been mentally replaying CT songs in my head, trying to think of the highest notes. In the 1st "fruitopia" ad song, (the slower-tempo one) she hits a very high note at the end, but I believe it may be the same note as in "suckling the mender". What do you think?

There is no way Liz ever hit that note, but I have to admit that my early love of the Cocteau Twins prepared my for my exploration of Opera in later life. And having said that, I still LOVE hearing her voice.

Don't know if it's one of the highest ones but the note she hits on Frou Frou Foxes... at 1:37 is surely one of the sweetest.
