Robert Wares, Chairman & CEO, commented: “We thank all shareholders and stakeholders for their continued support of the
Company and the Pine Point Project. With the current resource definition drill program, as well as ongoing hydrogeological
studies and community work, advancement of Pine Point is on-schedule and on-budget. In the evolving global market of rising
base metal commodity prices, shareholders are also reminded that Pine Point is rapidly gaining value. At current spot zinc
prices of US$1.35/lb zinc and US$1.05/lb lead, the 2020 PEA sensitivity tables indicate after-tax NPV of approximately C$730
M and after-tax IRR of 38% for the Pine Point project, a substantial increase over conservative 2020 numbers. We believe base
metal commodity markets will continue to improve as supply deficits manifest themselves, particularly for copper, zinc and
nickel, and that markets will recognize Pine Point as a leading global zinc development project.”

Osisko Metals Incorporated is a Canadian exploration and development company creating value in the base metal space. The
Company controls one of Canada’s premier past-producing zinc mining camps, the Pine Point Project, located in the
Northwest Territories for which the 2020 PEA has indicated an after-tax NPV of $500M and an IRR of 29.6%. The Pine Point
Project PEA is based on current Mineral Resource Estimates that are amenable to open pit and shallow underground mining
and consist of 12.9Mt grading 6.29% ZnEq of Indicated Mineral Resources and 37.6Mt grading 6.80% ZnEq of Inferred Mineral
Resources. Please refer to the technical report entitled “Preliminary Economic Assessment, Pine Point Project, Hay River,

south shore of Great Slave Lake in the Northwest Territories, near infrastructure, paved highway access, and has an electrical

The current Mineral Resources mentioned in this press release conform to NI43-101 standards 3 and were prepared by
independent qualified persons, as defined by NI43-101 guidelines. The abovementioned Mineral Resources are not Mineral
Reserves as they do not have demonstrated economic viability. The quantity and grade of the reported Inferred Mineral
Resources are conceptual in nature and are estimated based on limited geological evidence and sampling. Geological
evidence is sufficient to imply but not verify geological grade and/or quality of continuity. Zinc equivalency percentages are
calculated using metal prices, forecasted metal recoveries, concentrate grades, transport costs, smelter payable metals and
charges (see respective technical reports for details).
