OSISKO INTERSECTS 138 METRES AVERAGING 1.45% Cu IN SOUTH EXTENSION AT GASPÉ

Osisko Metals Incorporated has announced encouraging drill results from its Gaspé Copper Project located in eastern Quebec's Gaspé Peninsula. The company intersected 138 metres averaging 1.45% copper in the South Extension area, with a notable high-grade interval of 64.5 metres averaging 2.70% copper. These results represent a significant development for the project as they demonstrate both the width and grade continuity of copper mineralization in this extension zone.

The drilling program at Gaspé appears to be successfully expanding the known mineralized footprint of the deposit. The intersection of substantial widths of copper mineralization, particularly the higher-grade 2.70% copper interval over 64.5 metres, suggests the potential for a robust copper resource in this area. Such grades and widths are considered attractive for copper projects, especially given current market conditions and the growing demand for copper in energy transition technologies.

For the broader Canadian mining sector, these results highlight the ongoing potential for copper discoveries in established mining jurisdictions like Quebec. The Gaspé Peninsula has a history of mineral production, and Osisko's results reinforce the region's prospectivity for copper deposits. As global copper demand continues to strengthen driven by electrification and renewable energy infrastructure, projects like Gaspé that can demonstrate consistent mineralization over substantial widths become increasingly valuable to the sector.
