OSISKO INTERSECTS 114 g/t Au OVER 2.8 METRES AT OSBORNE-BELL

2019 Infill Drill Program Completed 

(Toronto, September 3, 2019) Osisko Mining Inc. (OSK:TSX. “Osisko” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to provide new results from the infill drill program at its 100% owned Osborne-Bell gold deposit located 15 kilometres northwest of the town of Lebel-sur-Quévillon, Québec. The 50,000-metre program focused on infill drilling at the Osborne-Bell deposit as part of the overall Windfall definition drilling program.  Osborne-Bell remains open at depth with good potential for further expansion, and additional exploration drilling is being planned for 2020.

Significant new analytical results from 71 intercepts in 47 infill drill holes are presented below. Highlights from the new results include: 114 g/t Au over 2.8 metres in OSK-OB-19- 109; 51.5 g/t Au over 2.8 metres in OSK-OB-19-212; 35.3 g/t Au over 2.7 metres in OSK-OB-192; 9.49 g/t Au over 7.6 metres in OSK-OB-19-131; and 9.60 g/t Au over 4.8 metres in OSK-OB-19-137. Maps showing hole locations and full analytical results are available at www.osiskomining.com.

Quality Control and Reporting Protocols

True width determination is currently unknown but is estimated at 65-80% of the reported core length interval for the zone. Assays are uncut except where indicated. Intercepts occur within geological confines of major zones but have not been correlated to individual vein domains at this time. Reported intervals include minimum weighted averages of 3.0 g/t Au diluted over core lengths of at least 2.0 metres. All NQ core assays reported were obtained by either 1-kilogram screen fire assay or standard 50-gram fire-assaying-AA finish or gravimetric finish at (i) ALS Laboratories in Val d’Or, Québec, Thunder Bay, Ontario, Sudbury, Ontario or Vancouver, British Columbia. The 1-kilogram screen assay method is selected by the geologist when samples contain coarse gold or present a higher percentage of pyrite than surrounding intervals. All samples are also analyzed for multi-elements, using an Aqua Regia-ICP-AES method at ALS Laboratories. Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”) and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with NI 43-101 and industry best practices. Standards and blanks are included with every 20 samples for QA/QC purposes by the Corporation as well as the lab.
