OSISKO DEVELOPMENT INTERSECTS 16.05 G/T GOLD OVER 7.50 METERS AT
LOWHEE DEPOSIT AT CARIBOO
MONTREAL, June 29, 2021 – Osisko Development Corp. (“Osisko Development” or the “ Company”)
(TSX.V-ODV) is pleased to announce drilling results from the 200,000-meter 2021 exploration and category
conversion drill program campaign at its Cariboo Gold Project (“ Cariboo”) in central British Columbia. A
total of ten diamond drill rigs are currently on the Project.
Drilling Summary
A total of 16,000 meters in 52 holes have been drilled thus far in 2021 on the Lowhee Deposit
Zone, the strike extension of the Cow Deposit, located on Barkerville Mountain (Figure 1).
Recent assay results include holes BM-21-020 to BM-21-036 (Figures 2 and 3).
Drill holes BM-21-031, BM-21-033 and BM-21-035 (Figure 3) intersected multiple mineralized vein
corridors and include highlights of 45.80 g/t Au over 0.75 meters in drillhole BM-21-031, 16.05 g/t
Au over 7.5 0 meters, including a sample of 93.70 g/t Au over 0.80 meters, located 20 meters
from surface in BM-21-033 and 15.20 g/t Au in 4.85 meters in BM-21-035.
Mineralization has now been defined to a vertical depth of 350 meters and remains open at depth
and along strike to the southeast.
Detailed drilling results, a drill hole location plan map and vertical cross section are presented at
the end of this release.

Chris Lodder, President of Osisko Development commented, “The continued positive assay results from
our ongoing drill campaign at Lowhee will continue to increase confidence within the modelled vein corridors
and expand at depth. With two drills focused on this zone, we will also systematically step out to the south
east to further expand this deposit.”
The primary focus of the drilling at Valley Zone is to increase indicated category ounces to support our
ongoing feasibility study. These excellent results from Valley Zone are hitting our designed targets and
expanding the vein corridors at depth.”
Mineralized quartz veins on Cariboo are overall sub -vertical dip and northeast strike. Vein corridors are
defined as a high-density network of mineralized quartz veins within the axis of the last folding event’s folds
and hosted within a brittle meta -sandstone or calcareous meta-sandstone. Vein corridors are modelled at
a minimum thickness of 2 meters and average about 4.5 meters true width. Individual mineralized veins
within these corridors have widths varying from centimeters to several meters and strike lengths from a few
meters to over 50 meters. These corridors have been defined from surface to a vertical depth averaging
300 meters and remain open for expansion at depth and along strike. Gold grades are intimately associated
with quartz vein-hosted pyrite as well as pyritic, intensely silicified wall rock haloes in close proximity to the
veins.
True widths are estimated to be 60% to 75% of reported core length intervals. Intervals not recovered by
drilling were assigned zero grade. Top cuts have not been applied to high grade assays. Complete assay
highlights are presented in Table 1, drill hole locations are listed in Table 2.

Qualified Persons
Per National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, Maggie Layman, P.Geo. Vice
President Exploration of Osisko Development Corp. , is a Qualified Person and has prepared, validated,
and approved the technical and scientific content of this news release.
Quality Assurance – Quality Control
Once received from the drill and processed, all drill core samples are sawn in half, labelled and bagged.
The remaining drill core is subsequently stored on site at a secured facility in Wells, BC. Numbered security
tags are applied to lab shipments for chain of custody requirements. Quality control (QC) samples are
inserted at regular intervals in the sample stream, including blanks and reference materials with all sample
shipments to monitor laboratory performance. The QAQC program was designed and approved by Lynda
Bloom, P.Geo. of Analytical Solutions Ltd.
Drill core samples are submitted to ALS Geochemistry’s analytical facility in North V ancouver, British
Columbia for preparation and analysis. The ALS facility is accredited to the ISO/IEC 17025 standard for
gold assays and all analytical methods include quality control materials at set frequencies with established
data acceptance criteria. The entire sample is crushed, and 250 grams is pulverized. Analysis for gold is
by 50g fire assay fusion with atomic absorption (AAS) finish with a lower limit of 0.01 ppm and upper limit
of 100 ppm. Samples with gold assays greater than 100 ppm are re-analyzed using a 1,000g screen metallic
fire assay. A selected number of samples are also analyzed using a 48 multi -elemental geochemical
package by a 4 -acid digestion, followed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy
(ICP-AES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectroscopy (ICP-MS).
About Osisko Development Corp.
Osisko Development Corp. is well -capitalized and uniquely positioned as a premier gold development
company in North America to advance the Cariboo Gold Project and other Canadian and Mexican
properties, with the objective of becoming the next mid -tier gold producer. The Cariboo Gold Project,
located in central British Columbia, is Osisko Development's flagship asset with measured and indicated
resources of 21.44 Mt at 4.6 Au g/t for a total of 3.2 million ounces of gold and inferred resource of 21.69 Mt
at 3.9 Au g/t for a total of 2.7 million ounces of gold (see NI 43-101 Technical Report for resource October
5th, 2020). The considerable exploration potential at depth and along strike distinguishes the Cariboo Gold
Project relative to other development assets as does the historically low, all -in discovery costs of US $19
per ounce. The Cariboo Gold Project is advancing through permitting as a 4,750 tonnes per day
underground operation with a feasibility study on track for completion in the second half of 2021. Osisko
Development's project pipeline is complemented by potential near -term production targeted from the San
Antonio gold project, located in Sonora Mexico and early exploration stage properties including the Coulon
Project and James Bay Properties located in Québec as well as the Guerrero Properties located in Mexico.
Osisko Development began trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "ODV" on December
2, 2020.

the negative or comparable terminology, as well as terms usually used in the future and the conditional, are
intended to identify forward ‐looking statements. Information contained in forward ‐looking statements is
based upon certain material assumptions that were applied in drawing a conclusion or making a forecast
or projection, including management’s perceptions of historical trends, current co nditions and expected
future developments, results of further exploration work to define and expand mineral resources, expected
conclusions of optimization studies, that vein corridors continue to be defined as a high -density network of
mineralized quartz within the axis of the F3 fold and hosted within the sandstones and that the deposit
remains open for expansion at depth and down plunge, as well as other considerations that are believed to
be appropriate in the circumstances. Osisko considers its assumpt ions to be reasonable based on
information currently available, but cautions the reader that their assumptions regarding future events, many
of which are beyond the control of Osisko, may ultimately prove to be incorrect since they are subject to
risks and uncertainties that affect Osisko and its business. Such risks and uncertainties include, among
others, risks relating to the ability of exploration activities (including drill results) to accurately predict
mineralization; errors in management’s geologica l modelling; the ability of to complete further exploration
activities, including drilling; property and royalty interests in the Cariboo gold deposit; the ability of the
Corporation to obtain required approvals; the results of exploration activities; risk s relating to mining
activities; the global economic climate; metal prices; dilution; environmental risks; and community and non-
