Executive Summary

  • Osisko Development released assay results from ≈ 6,471 m of underground infill diamond drilling and ≈ 398 m of chip/rock‑saw channel sampling in the Lowhee Zone.
  • Multiple high‑grade intercepts were identified, including a spectacular 625.95 g/t Au over 0.5 m (hole BMU‑25‑040) and several >50 g/t Au intervals across numerous holes.
  • The company announced that a 13,000‑m systematic infill drill program is already underway to further define mineral reserves, inferred resources and potential extensions at depth.

  • Program Summary:

  • Total of 68 underground DD holes (≈ 6,471 m) drilled Nov 2024 – Aug 2025; assays received through 16 Aug 2025.
  • 14 NQ (47.6‑mm) holes (42–48 m depth) infilling a 25 m ore‑drive section.
  • 4 deeper NQ holes (~290 m) exploring adjacent zones.
  • 22 NQ holes (≈ 90 m) systematic grid infill of reserve and inferred blocks.
  • 8 NQ holes (≈ 118 m) infilling existing reserves/resources.

  • Next Steps:

  • Ongoing 13,000‑m systematic grid infill program targeting mineral reserve blocks, inferred resources and non‑DSO resources across a ~100 m swath of the Lowhee Zone at 10 m spacing from the 1,260 m elevation development level.
  • Data will feed resource modeling, mine planning, stope design and future infill drill spacing decisions.
  • Structural modelling indicates the sandstone host remains open well beyond current depths, suggesting potential for deeper extensions of reserves/resources.

Notable Quotes

  • Chris Lodder, President: “We’re highly encouraged that underground exploration drilling…continues to indicate that veins remain open at depth, highlighting the strong potential for future resource expansion through additional exploration programs leveraging existing underground infrastructure.”
