RADISSON INTERSECTS 11.9 G/T GOLD OVER 3.0 METRES WEST OF O’BRIEN DEPOSIT
AT A DEPTH OF 533 M
Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, April 4 , 2017 : Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS)
(“Radisson”) is pleased to announce additional results from the ongoing 20,000 metres drill
program at the Company’s O’Brien gold project located in the heart of the Cadillac mining camp
along the Larder-Lake-Cadillac fault in Quebec, Canada (see figure 1, 2 and 3).
Since the last update , (see March 1 st, 2017 press release ) results have been received for two
drill holes (OB-17-22 to OB-17-23).
Highlights:
Drill hole OB-17-23 intersected 11.9 g/t Au over 3.0 m at a depth of 533 metres, 200 m
down-dip of previously released hole OB-16-14 that returned 20.2 g/t Au over 2.5 metres
(see figure 1).
Drill hole OB-17-23 also intersected 13.9 g/t Au over 1.4 m at a depth of 614 metres and 3.5
g/t Au over 1.5 m in the Pontiac sediments south of current resources (see figure 2).
Drill hole OB-17-22 intersected 10.3 g/t Au over 3.0 m within a wider intercept of 4.7 g/t au
over 7.5 m at a depth of 304 metres in vertical extension of historical resources halfway
between former O’Brien mine and current resources (see figure 3).
Mario Bouchard, President and CEO commented: “We are very excited by today’s results as we
continue to encounter high-grade gold mineralization both in extension of current and historical
resources. Radisson added a second drill-rig at O’Brien this week, this will enable the company
to generate results both in extension of ore shoots withi n current resources and on high -priority
exploration targets defined in the Footwall (Pontiac sediments) and in the Hanging wall (Cadillac
sediments).”
Addition of a second drill-rig focused on exploration targets
On April 2nd, the company mobilized a second drill -rig at the O’Brien gold project. This addition
will enable Radisson to test high -priority drill targets identified through the “Orevision IP”
(Induced polarization) survey and geological compilation of the sector . The first phase of work
will focus on five high -priority exploration targets defined in the Pontiac sediments on the
southeast portion of the O’Brien property for an approximate 2,300 metres of drilling.

Note; Results are presented as down hole width; true widths are estimated to be between 55 to 70% of
down hole thickness.
All drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Analyses were completed on sawn half-cores, with
the second half kept for future reference . The samples were analyzed using standard fire assay
procedures with Atomic Absorption ( AA) finish at Techni -Lab Actlabs in Ste -Germaine-Boulé in
Abitibi, Quebec. Samples yielding a grade higher than 5 g/t were analyzed a second time by fire
assay with gravimetric finish at the same laboratory. Samples containing visible gold were
analyzed with metallic s ieve procedure. Standard reference materials and blank samples were
inserted prior to shipment for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) program.
