Osisko Windfall Infill Drilling
Very Good
Record Intercept of 13,634 g/t Au over 2.0 Metres
TORONTO, Dec. 01, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Osisko Mining Inc. (OSK:TSX. "Osisko" or the "Corporation") is pleased to provide new analytical results from the ongoing expansion and definition drill
program at its 100% owned Windfall gold project located in the Abitibi greenstone belt, Urban Township, Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Québec.
Infill drilling at Lynx has returned the highest-grade result at Windfall to date of 13,634 g/t Au over 2.0 metres including 90,700 g/t Au over 0.3 metres in hole WST-20-0543. This infill hole from the definition program is located 70 metres down plunge from WST-20-0310 (376 g/t Au over 2.0 metres, see Osisko news release dated June 23, 2020) and confirms the continuity of the Lynx 323 wireframe.
Osisko Chief Executive Officer John Burzynski commented: “Today’s spectacular result, certainly one the highest gold grades in terms of metal factor (grade x width) ever reported, continues to demonstrate the exceptional high-grade characteristics of Lynx. Our infill drilling program continues to show the strength of our deposit, and is confirming both the continuity and high-grade nature of Windfall. We encourage people to go to our social media page or website and view some of the recent photos of the spectacular visible gold in this sample and other recent drill core coming from the ongoing work at Windfall.”
