Radisson SEDAR files NI 43-101 Technical report for the Updated O’Brien
Resource estimate
Press release highlights:
• The O’Brien gold deposit at a 3.5 g/t gold (“Au”) cut-off base case
• 95% Increase for the Indicated resources totalling 233,491 oz grading 6.45 g/t Au
• 3% Increase for the Inferred resources totalling 194,084 oz grading 5.22 g/t Au
• The O’Brien project remains open below depth of 600 meters.
• Results from 29,787 m of drilling incorporated in the resource estimate update
• The F Zone, contiguous and to the West of 36E area was not incorporated in the update, the Company evaluates the F Zone
represents an excellent growth opportunity at O’Brien. (See 3D metal factor section of the Piché Group looking northeast)
• One drill rig currently in operation at O’Brien on a recently expanded 11,000 m drill program
ROUYN-NORANDA, Québec, May 03, 2018 -- Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSX-V:RDS) (OTC:RMRDF) (“Radisson” or
the “Company") is pleased to announce it has filed on the SEDAR the independent NI 43-101 technical report (the “Report”) for
the resource estimate update of the O’Brien gold project located along the Larder-Lake Cadillac Break (“L-L-C”) halfway
between the two mining towns of Rouyn-Noranda and Val-d’Or, PQ. (See figure 2)
The report is available on SEDAR and on Radisson’s new website to the link below. The report supports Radisson’s
opportunity of exploring and developing a high-grade gold project located along a major fault, within a world-renowned mining
camp and host of a historical high-grade production (1,197,147 metric tons at 15.25 g/t Au for 587,121 ounces of gold from
1926 to 1957; InnovExplo, March 2018);

O’Brien resource update – Substantial growth
The report filed today incorporates 29,787 of drilling completed at O’Brien in 2016 and 2017. A substantial conversion of
Inferred ounces into Indicated ounces is shown in the report, including a 95% increase in Indicated resources at a 3.5 g/t Au
cut-off. In parallel, the company was able to renew transferred Inferred resources, including a 3% increase. These results
suggest that ongoing drilling at O’Brien could continue to have a positive impact on resources.

Notes to Accompany Mineral Resource Table:
1. The independent qualified person for the 2018 MRE, as defined by NI 43-101, is Christine Beausoleil, P. Geo, of
InnovExplo Inc. The effective date of the estimate is March 20, 2018.
2. The Mineral Resources are classified as Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources and are based on the 2014 CIM
Definition Standards.
3. These Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves, as they do not have demonstrated economic viability.
4. Results are presented in-situ and undiluted.
5. Sensitivity was assessed using cut-off grades from 2.5 g/t Au to 5.0 g/t Au. The official in-situ resource is reported at a cut
-off grade of 3.5 g/t Au. Cut-off grades must be re-evaluated in light of prevailing market conditions (gold price, exchange
rate and mining cost).
6. A top cut of 30 g/t gold (5.0 g/t gold for the dilution envelope) was applied to assay grades prior to compositing grades for
interpolation into model blocks using an inverse distance squared (ID2) method and was based on 0.75 m composites
within a block model made of 3 m long x 3 m wide x 3 m high blocks.
7. Density data (g/cm3) was established at 2.75 g/cm3.
8. A minimum true thickness of 1.5 m was applied, using the grade of the adjacent material when assayed or a value of zero
when not assayed for 17 different mineralised zones.
9. The number of metric tons and ounces was rounded to the nearest hundred. Any discrepancies in the totals are due to
rounding effects; rounding followed the recommendations in Form 43-101F1.
10. InnovExplo is not aware of any known environmental, permitting, legal, title-related, taxation, socio-political, marketing or
other relevant issues that could materially affect the mineral resource estimate.
Next steps
As announced on April 24 2018, Radisson is pursuing the recently expanded 11,000 m drill program with main targets on:
• The F Zone, excluded from current resources, thus, representing an excellent growth potential for the O’Brien project
(4,000 m planned),
• The near-surface vertical extension of the enrichment factor defined on 36E area through the historical drill core re-
logging and assaying program (1,200 m planned).
Current work will allow the company to define a drill program below depth of 550 meters where all sectors of the O’Brien gold
project remain open.
