Osisko Metals Incorporated announced additional assay results from its 2023 drilling program at the Pine Point Project, located in the Northwest Territories, Canada. The reported results are from the P499 and O556 deposits, both prismatic-style deposits with associated tabular-style aprons in the West Zone (?WZ?). Results within the prismatic pipes defined by historical drilling were thick, high-grade intersections consistent with historical results.

Drillhole P499-23-PP-004 extends the known prismatic style mineralization towards the West and remains open for further exploration. Drilling was conducted as part of the Pine Point Joint Venture?s larger 2023 definition drilling program that is designed to achieve an average drill spacing of approximately 30 metres within the current modelled mineral resources reported in the 2022 PEA. This drilling is intended to upgrade Mineral Resources presently classified as Inferred to the Indicated category and to potentially expand on known resources.

All mineralization occurs near surface between 81.00 and 181.00 metres vertical depth from surface and occurs as prismatic-style banded colloform style sphalerite and galena associated with intensely altered hydrothermal dolomite and limestone. Osisko Metals adheres to a strict QA/QC program for core handling, sampling, sample transportation, and analyses. Drill core samples from the Pine Point project area are securely transported to its core facility on-site, where they are logged and sampled.

Samples selected for assay are shipped to ALS Canada Ltd.'s preparation facility in Yellowknife. Pulps are analyzed at the ALS Canada Ltd. facility in North Vancouver, BC. All samples are analyzed by four acid digestion followed by both ICP-AES and ICP-MS for a multi-element suite with a 1% upper detection limit for base metals.

Samples reporting over 1% for Zn and 1% for Pb are analyzed by assay grade, four acid digestion, and ICP-AES analysis with an upper detection limit of 30% and 20%, respectively. Samples with Zn >30% and or Pb >20% are analyzed by traditional titration.
