Jeff Hussey, President of Osisko Metals, commented: “Bob has been instrumental in developing the vision of Osisko Metals.
In my point of view he is the best mining project generator in both the gold and base metal space. This has led to the
discovery of the Canadian Malartic (gold) and Taylor (zinc) mines. As we continue to move our flagship projects forward, Bob’s
regular involvement in exploration, resource base development, as well as his extensive network in the financial markets, will
undoubtedly move Osisko Metals to the next level.”

both public and private companies, providing audit, taxation, strategic advisory and public offering services. Mr. Glavac is also
involved with other public companies in the mining industry.
Paul Dumas, Executive Vice President, Finance, comments, “We are very pleased to have Anthony join our team. His
extensive experience in financial reporting, internal controls and involvement within the mining sector will be beneficial to the
Company as we position ourselves for continued growth. With operations at our Bathurst Mining Camp in NB and Pine Point
