The scientific and technical information in this news release has been disclosed in accordance with
National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects 43-101 ("NI 43-101") and
was prepared by independent qualified persons (each as defined in NI 43-101) . The above-
mentioned 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 supporting technical report for additional
details).
Mr. Robin Adair, P.Geo and Vice President Exploration of Osisko Metals, is the "qualified person"
(as defined in NI 43-101) who has reviewed and approved of the scientific and technical information
