Globenewswire·2025-11-12 11:00Core Viewpoint - Osisko Metals Incorporated has announced new drill results from the Gaspé Copper Project, indicating significant mineralization and potential resource expansion in the Gaspé Peninsula of Eastern Québec [1][29]. Summary by Category Drill Results - The latest analytical results include 35 mineralized intercepts from ten new drill holes, focusing on upgrading inferred mineral resources to measured or indicated categories and expanding resources outside the current model [2][20]. - Notable drill results include: - Drill hole 30-1128: 330.6 metres averaging 0.46% Cu (0.49% CuEq - expansion) [4][7]. - Drill hole 30-1115: 33.0 metres averaging 1.28% Cu (1.36% CuEq - expansion) [4][6]. - Drill hole 30-1117: 779.0 metres averaging 0.26% Cu (0.34% CuEq - infill and expansion) [4][9]. Mineralization Details - The mineralization at Gaspé Copper is characterized as porphyry copper/skarn type, with various mineralizing events recognized throughout the system [18]. - Drill hole 30-1117 extended mineralization to a vertical depth of 991 metres, while drill hole 30-1126 extended it to 1033 metres [9][13]. - Drill hole 30-1128 identified a new mineralized zone not previously recognized, with significant high-grade intervals [15]. Resource Expansion Strategy - The current drill program aims to convert the November 2024 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) to Measured and Indicated categories and to test for deeper and lateral expansions of the mineralization [20]. - The November 2024 MRE indicated significant resources, with 824 million tonnes averaging 0.34% CuEq and 670 million tonnes averaging 0.38% CuEq in the inferred category [29]. Project Background - Osisko Metals acquired a 100% interest in the Gaspé Copper mine in July 2023, which is strategically located near existing infrastructure in a mining-friendly region [29]. - The Gaspé Copper project hosts the largest undeveloped copper resource in eastern North America, emphasizing its potential for future development [29].
