Osisko Mining Intersects 71.4 g/t Au Over 5.4 Metres at Windfall / New High Grade Intercepts in Lynx Zone Discovery

MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 03/28/17 -- Osisko Mining Inc. (TSX: OSK) ("Osisko" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce new results from the ongoing drill program at its 100% owned Windfall Lake gold project located in Urban Township, Quebec. The current 400,000 metre drill program combines definition drilling above the Red Dog intrusion ("Red Dog"), expansion drilling above and below Red Dog, expansion drilling to the NE of the main deposit, and exploration drilling on the greater deposit and Urban-Barry Project area. New analytical results from four drill holes focused on the Lynx Zone discovery are reported in this release, with significant assay results presented in the table below.

New results include: 71.4 g/t Au over 5.4 metres (uncut) in OSK-W-17-792; 57.0 g/t Au over 3.6 metres (uncut) and 21.1 g/t Au over 3.7 metres in OSK-W-17-788; and 21.6 g/t Au over 7.9 metres (uncut) in OSK-W-17-779. Maps showing hole locations and full analytical results are available at www.osiskomining.com.

The Lynx Zone is a recently discovered corridor of gold mineralization located to the East of the main Windfall deposit mineralized zones. To date it has been intersected at shallow depths (60 metres) and up to 330 metres below surface, over a strike length of over 300 metres and remains open laterally and at depth. The Lynx Zone was discovered as a result of the step-out drilling program which was designed to test an east-northeast magnetic low corridor containing altered porphyry dykes similar to those previously defined in the main deposit area. Mineralization consists of a series of crustiform veins and heavily silicified, pyrite-rich alteration bands hosted in strongly silicified and sericitized rhyolite and porphyry dikes. The veins and silicified bands are intersected at various angles, including low core angles, suggesting they may represent a vein network. Additional drilling will be conducted to the southeast to further evaluate the abundance and true thickness of the veins and silicified bands. True thicknesses of reported intersections are presently unknown.

OSK-W-17-779 tested the Lynx corridor and intersected 16.9 g/t Au over 7.9 metres (21.7 g/t Au over 7.9 metres uncut) followed by 18.1 g/t over 2.5 metres and 15.6 g/t Au over 2.7 metres in crustiform veins containing 1-5% pyrite and local visible gold. The veins are hosted in silicified and sericitized rhyolite. Veining was generally intersected at 20 to 40 degrees to the axis of the core and the true width of the vein system is undetermined at this time.

OSK-W-17-788 returned 36.6 g/t Au over 3.6 metres (57.0 g/t Au over 3.6 metres uncut) followed by 21.1 g/t Au over 3.7 metres in a series of sub-parallel highly silicified pyrite-rich alteration bands with local visible gold hosted in a sericitized and silicified rhyolite containing 1-5% pyrite stringers and disseminations.

OSK-W-17-790 intersected 11.3 g/t Au over 3.6 metres in a series of highly silicified pyrite-rich alteration bands hosted in a sericitized and silicified porphyry dyke containing 3-5% pyrite stringers and disseminations.

OSK-W-17-792 averaged 42.5 g/t Au over 5.4 metres (71.4 g/t Au over 5.4 metres uncut) in a series of silicified pyrite-rich alteration bands containing 5-20% pyrite and local visible gold hosted in a sericitized and silicified rhyolite. This interval is located 40 metres above and 20 metres to the east of 11.3 g/t Au over 3.6 metres in OSK-W-17-790 described above.

Qualified Person

The scientific and technical content of this news release has been reviewed, prepared and approved by Mr. Jean-Philippe Desrochers, Ph.D., P.Geo. Senior Project Manager of the Windfall Lake gold project, who is a "qualified person" as defined by National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101").

Quality Control and Reporting Protocols

True width determinations in the Lynx Zone have yet to be determined. Assay are uncut except where indicated, and calculated intervals are reported over a minimum length of 2 metres using a lower cutoff of 3 g/t Au. All NQ core assays reported were obtained by either 1 kilogram whole rock metallic screen/fire assay or standard 50 gram fire-assaying with AA or gravimetric finish at ALS Laboratories in Val d'Or, Quebec or Sudbury, Ontario. The 1 kilogram metallic 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, including silver, using an Aqua Regia-ICP-AES method at ALS laboratories. Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a Quality Assurance/Quality Control program consistent with NI 43-101 and industry best practices. Standards and blanks are included with every 20 samples for Quality Assurance/Quality Control purposes by the Corporation as well as the lab. Approximately 5% of sample pulps are sent to secondary laboratories for check assays.

About the Windfall Lake Gold Deposit

The Windfall Lake gold deposit is located between Val-d'Or and Chibougamau in the Abitibi region of Quebec, Canada. The current mineral resource comprises 2,762,000 tonnes at 8.42 g/t Au (748,000 ounces) in the indicated category and 3,512,000 tonnes at 7.62 g/t Au (860,000 ounces) in the inferred category (sourced from a technical report dated June 10, 2015 entitled "Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Windfall Lake Gold Property, Quebec, Canada" with an effective date of April 28, 2015, prepared in accordance with NI 43-101). The Windfall Lake gold deposit is currently one of the highest grade resource-stage gold projects in Canada. The bulk of the mineralization occurs in the Main Zone, a southwest/northeast trending zone of stacked mineralized lenses, measuring approximately 600 metres wide and at least 1,400 metres long. The deposit is well defined from surface to a depth of 500 metres, and remains open along strike and at depth. Mineralization has been identified only 30 metres from surface in some areas and as deep as 870 metres in others, with significant potential to extend mineralization up and down-plunge and at depth.
