Osisko Infill Drilling Continues to Confirm High Grade at Lynx
Osisko Mining Inc. has released new drilling results from the ongoing definition and expansion drill program at its 100% owned Windfall gold project located in the Abitibi greenstone belt, Urban Township, Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Québec.
Drilling is currently focused on the Lynx deposit, the main mineralized zones, and down plunge exploration in the central areas of the mineralized system. Windfall camp is expected to return to full capacity with 21 drill rigs by the end of this week.
Osisko President and Chief Executive Officer John Burzynski commented: “Todays infill results continue to demonstrate the continuity of the high-grade values in Lynx and Triple Lynx, as we continue to intersect the zones where anticipated. The drill program remains focused on defining the Lynx deposit as well as targeting key areas up plunge and down plunge for growth potential. We are also having good success in step-out drilling which will add to the scale of the deposit.”
Significant new analytical results from 33 intercepts in 18 drill holes and 7 wedges are presented below.
Selected high-grade intercepts from the new results include: 376 g/t Au over 2.0 metres in WST-20-0310; 23.8 g/t Au over 6.2 metres in OSK-W-19-2100-W5; 35.2 g/t Au over 4.3 metres in WST-20-0380; and 27.0 g/t Au over 4.5 metres in OSK-W-20-2250.

Lynx Zone
Mineralization in the Lynx zone is typically characterized by trace to 15% disseminated, clustered or stringer pyrite (locally up to 70%), local visible gold, trace to 3% sphalerite, chalcopyrite, and galena, local ptygmatic pyrite-tourmaline or tourmaline veinlets, quartz-carbonate veins (locally crustiform), smoky quartz veins and veinlets, and local chlorite-calcite or quartz-carbonate chlorite fracture filling. Alteration consists of weak to strong sericite, weak to strong silica with areas of local pervasive silica flooding, weak to moderate chlorite and carbonate, and locally weak to strong fuchsite. Mineralization is hosted in or at the contacts of felsic porphyritic or fragmental intrusions with rhyolites, andesites (locally bleached), or gabbros.
Triple Lynx Zone
Mineralization in the Triple Lynx zone is typically characterized by trace to 30% disseminated, clustered or stringer pyrite, local visible gold, trace sphalerite, chalcopyrite, and galena, local quartz-tourmaline veins (up to 20%), local ptygmatic tourmaline veins, and local smoky quartz and quartz-carbonate veins. Alteration consists of weak to strong sericite, weak to strong silica with areas of local pervasive silica flooding, weak to moderate chlorite and carbonate, and locally weak to strong fuchsite. Mineralization is hosted in or at the contacts of felsic porphyritic dikes with rhyolites (locally bleached) or gabbros.
