(Toronto, February 20, 2019) Osisko Mining Inc. (OSK:TSX, “Osisko“) and Chantrell Ventures Corp. (NEX:CV.H, “Chantrell”) are pleased to announce that they have entered into a binding letter agreement dated as of February 19, 2019 (the “Letter Agreement”) . The Letter Agreement outlines the proposed terms and conditions upon which Osisko will effect a business combination that will result in a reverse takeover of Chantrell by Osisko (the “Proposed Transaction”). Pursuant to the Proposed Transaction, Osisko will transfer certain non-core assets of Osisko with a value of approximately $99.9 million to Chantrell in exchange for shares of Chantrell. In addition the shares of Chantrell will be subject to a consolidation on a 40:1 basis, subject to adjustment.

John Burzynski, President and CEO of Osisko stated: “When we launched the new Osisko Mining in 2015 we employed the same consolidation strategy used successfully in the Malartic Camp, with the difference being we began consolidating ground in three camps. Our exceptional success at Windfall has been based on focusing all of our efforts on the Urban Barry – Quevillon district. As a result we have done only minimal work on advancing a number of our early Osisko Mining acquisitions. Drilling out the Windfall deposit and accelerating exploration on our extensive 3,500 square kilometre land package in the Urban Barry – Quevillon district will continue to be the focus of Osisko Mining. The non-core assets will now become important pieces for O3 Mining to independently continue the consolidation strategy with the objective of defining the next significant deposit in Canada’s premier mining districts.”

Terms of the Proposed Transaction

The Proposed Transaction is anticipated to be by way of plan of arrangement with approval of shareholders of Chantrell. The final structure of the Proposed Transaction will be described in an information circular of Chantrell which will be mailed to shareholders in connection with the meeting to consider the Proposed Transaction. The Osisko assets to be transferred include the Marban deposit, Garrison deposit, exploration properties and a portfolio of selected securities.

Completion of the Proposed Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including, without limitation, negotiation and execution of definitive documentation, receipt of all necessary shareholder, third party and regulatory approvals, satisfactory completion of due diligence, conditional listing approval to list the resulting issuer (the “Resulting Issuer”) on the TSX Venture Exchange.

Chantrell intends to undertake an equity financing transaction in conjunction with the Proposed Transaction, which will consist of up to $10 million by way of a private placement of securities at a price of $3.88 per unit, each unit, consisting of one common share in the capital of the Resulting Issuer and one warrant exercisable for $4.46 to acquire a common share in the capital of the Resulting Issuer.

In connection with the Proposed Transaction, Chantrell will be required to, among other things: (i) change its name to “O3 Mining Corporation” or such other name as may be acceptable to applicable regulatory authorities; (ii) replace all directors and officers on closing of the Proposed Transaction; (iii) receive conditional listing approval for the Resulting Issuer on the TSX Venture Exchange; (iv) consolidate its common shares on a 40:1 basis, subject to adjustment; (v) cooperate in the offering of Subscription Receipts. Chantrell may, from time to time, acquire further assets in exchange for shares or cash in connection with the Proposed Transaction; and (vi) seek a waiver or exemption from the TSX Venture Exchange’s sponsorship requirements.

The Letter Agreement was negotiated at arm’s length.

Trading of Chantrell’s common shares will be halted pending further filings with the TSX Venture Exchange. Further information, including the proposed directors and officers of the Resulting Issuer will be press released by Chantrell when available.

John Burzynski, President and Chief Executive Officer of Osisko, commented: “We are pleased with our mineral resource estimate at Garrison and the first mineral resource estimate for the 903 Zone. Our work continues to better define the gold-bearing zones and highlight areas for future expansion and exploration. We also have numerous targets that warrant follow-up on our claim package along the significant Destor Porcupine Fault Zone.”

 

The mineral resource estimate has been prepared by RockRidge, from Vancouver, British Columbia, and has been reviewed and audited by Micon International Limited, Toronto, Ontario. The full technical report, which is being prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”), will be available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) under the Corporation’s issuer profile within 45 days. The effective date of the current mineral resource estimate is February 19, 2019.

 

This mineral resource estimate reflects geological modeling of the Garrison deposit (Garrcon, Jonpol, and 903 zones) as lying at the confluence of the Destor Porcupine Fault and the Munro fault (a splay structure of the Destor Porcupine). Mineralization in the Garrcon Zone is in a brittle fault and fracture zone hosted within silicified metasediments. Mineralization in the Jonpol Zone is shear hosted with quartz-albite veins in sheared ultramafic volcanics within the footwall of the Munro fault. Mineralization in the 903 Zone is hosted in syenites within sheared ultramafics of the Destor Porcupine Fault.

 

Mineralized domain wireframes were constructed within lithological and structural boundaries modeled in Leapfrog using a 0.2 g/t Au grade shell. The estimate only considers mineralized zones potentially minable by open-pit or underground methods at lower cut-off grades of 0.4 g/t Au and 3.0 g/t Au, respectively. The cut-off calculation is based on the assumed parameters listed below:

Garrison Gold Deposit Mineral Resource Estimate Notes:

• The Garrison mineral resource estimate has been prepared pursuant to CIM standards and guidelines for reporting mineral resources and reserves.
• Resources are presented undiluted and in situ and are considered to have reasonable prospects for economic extraction.
• The database comprised a total of 1,115 drill holes for 342,873.7 metres of drilling in the extent of the mineral resource, of which 197 drill holes (87,250.8 metres) were completed and assayed by Osisko as of July 31, 2018.
• All NQ core assays reported by Osisko were obtained by analytical methods described below under “Quality Control and Reporting Protocols”.
• Geological interpretation of the deposits was based on the Garrison deposit (Garrcon, Jonpol, and 903) as lying at the confluence of the Destor Porcupine Fault and the Munro fault (a splay structure of the Destor Porcupine) and mineralization hosted in structurally controlled domains. Interpretation was initially made from cross-sections at 25 or 50 metre intervals, and then completed in Leapfrog Software, where selections of mineralization intervals were combined to generate mineralization wireframes.
• The mineralized domains used for the mineral resource estimate were constructed in Leapfrog Software using 0.2 g/t Au interpolant grade shells with 0.5 ISO values limited by hard boundaries to modeled lithological and structural zones.
• Samples were composited within the mineralization domains into 2.0 metre length composites for all areas except the Garrcon Main Metasedimentary zone, where 2.5 metre composites were more appropriate.
• High grade capping was done on composite data and established using a statistical analysis on a per-zone basis for gold. Capping values of between 10 g/t to 40 g/t were used depending on mineralized domain.
• Density values were applied on the following lithological basis (t/m³): 2.79 for all metasedimentary units and 2.82 for all igneous units.
• Ordinary Kriging (OK) based interpolation was used for the estimation of all zones of the Garrison gold deposit. Estimates are based on a block dimension of 10 metres NE, 2 metres NW and 10 metres height for all zones except the Garrcon Main Metasedimentary unit where 5 metre x 5 metre x 5 metre blocks were used. Estimation parameters were based on variography. Strong anisotropies were observed in all cases, and variograms were rotated to reflect the best major, semi-major and minor ranges. Spherical models were fitted to pairwise relative semi-variograms. Search radii reflected the orientations of the variography. Search distances were used in three passes, where the first pass equaled two thirds of the variogram range, the second pass was equal to full variogram range and the third pass was double the respective range.
• The Garrison mineral resource estimate is categorized as Measured, Indicated and Inferred mineral resource as follows:
  • The measured mineral resource category is generally based on a minimum number of six informing composites using a minimum of three drill holes located within the first estimation pass (two thirds variogram range)
  • The indicated mineral resource category is largely based on using a minimum of four composites from two drill holes located in the second estimation pass
  • The inferred mineral resource category is based on a minimum of four composites from two drill holes located in the third pass.
  • After initial coding of each pass, results were further refined in Leapfrog to establish continuous volumes for each resource category.
• Estimates use metric units (metres, tonnes and g/t). Metal contents are presented in troy ounces (metric tonne x grade / 31.10348).
• Micon International Limited is not aware of any known environmental, permitting, legal, title-related, taxation, socio-political or marketing issues, or any other relevant issue not reported in the technical report, that could materially affect the mineral resource estimate.
• These mineral resources are not mineral reserves as they have not demonstrated economic viability. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred resources in this Mineral Resource Estimate are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define these inferred resources as indicated or measured. It is reasonably expected that the majority of inferred mineral resources could be upgraded to indicated mineral resources with continued exploration though not guaranteed.

Quality Control
True widths of the new exploration intercepts reported in this press release have yet to be determined, but are typically 65 – 90% of reported core lengths. Assays are uncut except where indicated, and calculated intervals are reported over a minimum length of 2 metres using a lower cutoff of 1.0 g/t Au. All HQ core assays reported were obtained by either whole sample rock metallic screen/fire assay or standard 30 gram fire-assaying with ICP finish at SGS Minerals Services in Cochrane, Ontario; and Bureau Veritas in Timmins, Ontario. The whole sample metallic screen assay method is selected by the geologist when samples contain coarse gold or any samples displaying gold initial fire assay values greater than 3g/t. 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 Garrison Project
The Garrison Project area is comprised of 4 cell mineral claims and 63 patent claims encompassing approximately 770 hectares within the larger Great Bear project area which totals 517 cell mineral claims, 25 mining leases, and 87 patent claims encompassing approximately 8,000 hectares. The Garrison Project area contains the Garrcon, Jonpol, and 903 zones.

 

Garrcon Zone
The Garrcon Zone has a shallow plunge eastward along the footwall of the Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone with the bulk of the resource in the western, more densely drilled area. The zone is exposed at surface and has potential for open pit bulk mining. There is potential for additional underground resources below the pit and along the easterly plunge of the zone, which is open for further exploration down dip and along strike.

The Garrcon shaft was sunk in 1935 and 1936 by the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Co. of Canada (“Cominco”) and the Shaft and South Zones were tested for high grade gold mineralization. Cominco drove approximately 1,430 metres of drifts and cross cuts, mining underground veins. Diamond drilling by Cominco and Lac Minerals Ltd. in the mid-to-late 1980s identified broad sections of low grade mineralization. In 2006-2007, ValGold Resources Ltd. conducted additional drilling confirming these zones. From 2009-2013 Northern Gold Mining Inc. conducted 97,000 metres of diamond drilling. In 2014, Northern Gold Mining Inc. was granted a trial mining permit allowing the extraction of up to 150,000 tonnes. Northern Gold Mining Inc. mined 73,534 dry tonnes which was processed at the nearby Holt mill facility recovering 3,516 oz at an average head grade of 1.55 g/t and recovery of 95.9%.

 

Jonpol Zone
Jonpol is situated in the Munro Fault Zone, a west striking splay off the north side of the Destor-Porcupine Fault. Hosted in a shear zone tens of metres wide in altered mafic volcanic rocks. Gold mineralization is hosted in quartz carbonate veins, in mafic and ultramafic host rocks, and is associated with intense albite and/or sericite alteration and pyrite mineralization.

In 1997, a 49,087 tonne bulk sample was extracted from the central part of the JP zone by Hillsborough Resources Limited with an average grade of 6.7 g/t which produced 9,476 ounces Au. From 1985-2013, over 130,000 metres of drilling was completed on the property by previous operators. Development work on the Jonpol zone included the sinking of a 184 metre shaft as well as development of a ramp to the 150 metres level with mining on six sublevels. The Jonpol infrastructure underwent reclamation in the late 1990s and was closed out in 2001, but the existing ramp and shaft are preserved.

 

903 Zone
This third mineralized zone present at Garrison was not included in the resource estimate reported by the previous operator in 2013. Mineralization at the 903 was discovered in 1945 by Wright-Hargreaves Mines Ltd. In 1988 Lac Minerals acquired the claims covering the current 903 Zone and completed 17 drill holes totaling 4,823 metres. The property was optioned in 1990 to Jonpol and T&H Resources and subsequently returned to Lac Minerals in 1991. The claims were acquired from a subsidiary of Barrick Gold in 2013.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Estimates of Mineral Resources

This news release uses the terms measured, indicated and inferred resources as a relative measure of the level of confidence in the resource estimate. Readers are cautioned that mineral resources are not economic mineral reserves and that the economic viability of resources that are not mineral reserves has not been demonstrated. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by geology, environmental, permitting, legal, title, socio-political, marketing or other relevant issues. The mineral resource estimate is classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum’s “CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves” incorporated by reference into NI 43-101. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies or economic studies except for Preliminary Assessment as defined under NI 43-101. Readers are cautioned not to assume that further work on the stated resources will lead to mineral reserves that can be mined economically.
