Osisko Metals Incorporated (the ‘ Company ‘ or ‘ Osisko Metals ‘) ( TSX-V: OM ; OTCQX: OMZNF ; FRANKFURT: 0B51 ) is pleased to announce an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (‘ MRE ‘) for the Gaspé Copper Project, located near Murdochville in the Gaspé Peninsula of Quebec.

The updated MRE (Table 1) includes pit-constrained resources comprising 824 million tonnes grading 0.34% CuEq of Indicated category and 670 million tonnes grading 0.38% CuEq of Inferred category. This MRE represents a 53% increase in copper-equivalent metal content over the previously reported Indicated Resource and a 100-fold increase in copper-equivalent metal content in Inferred Resources (see May 6, 2024 news release and entitled ‘   2024 Copper Mountain Mineral Resource Estimate   ‘ ).

At 4.91 billion pounds (2.23 million tonnes) of contained copper (Table 1) , as well as significant molybdenum (274 million pounds) and silver (46.0 million ounces), the latest Gaspé Copper in-pit Indicated Resource hosts by far the largest undeveloped copper-molybdenum deposit in Eastern North America, exclusive of Inferred resources.

Robert Wares, CEO & Chairman, commented: ‘We are very proud to announce this updated resource estimate for Gaspé Copper. The overall resource has increased dramatically since last spring’s MRE as a result of new geological modelling and extending the modelled Whittle pit boundaries towards Needle Mountain to the south. A minimum 70,000 metre drill program is now planned for 2025, with the objective of converting the bulk of the current Inferred resource to Indicated category. There is also excellent potential for converting currently categorized in-pit waste rock to mineralized material with this drill program, which would further grow the in-pit resource while reducing the strip ratio. This MRE represents a much larger resource than was estimated previously, presenting the potential for a bulk tonnage mining operation with significantly higher throughput. Given this new resource milestone, management has elected to defer the PEA, originally slated for release in Q1 2025, to a later date until additional new drilling is completed. Ongoing studies will focus on a larger-scale mine plan and relocation of the mill complex away from the current site.’

Mr. Wares continued: ‘We are proud to be leading the Gaspé Copper project, which is shaping up to be a major Canadian copper-molybdenum development project located in one of the world’s safest mining jurisdictions. This important asset has the potential to become a core component of Québec’s critical mineral development strategy that aims to provide essential metals for global decarbonization initiatives.’

Table 1: Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) Base Case at 0.12% Copper Cut-off

1. The independent qualified persons for the MRE, as defined by National Instrument (‘NI’) 43-101 guidelines, is Pierre-Luc Richard, P.Geo., of PLR Resources Inc. with contributions from François Le Moal, P.Eng., of G-Mining for cut-off grade and Pit shell optimization, and Christian Laroche, P.Eng., from Synectic, for metallurgical parameters. The effective date of the MRE is November 4, 2024.
2. These Mineral Resources are not mineral reserves as they have no demonstrated economic viability. No economic evaluation of these Mineral Resources has been produced. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Resources in this MRE are uncertain in nature and there has been insufficient drilling to define these Inferred Resources as Indicated. However, it is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated category with additional drilling.
3. The Qualified Persons are not aware of any known environmental, permitting, legal, title-related, taxation, socio-political, financial or other relevant issues that could materially affect the MRE.
4. Calculations used metric units (metres, tonnes). Metal contents in the above table are presented in percent, pounds or tonnes. Metric tonnages and pounds were rounded, and any discrepancies in total amounts are due to rounding errors.
5. CIM definitions and guidelines for Mineral Resource Estimates have been followed. See Cautionary Note below for copper equivalency (CuEq) values.

This significantly larger resource estimate is the result of:

1. Geological re-interpretation of the mineralized system, whereby most of the mineralized stratigraphic units above the base of the C-Zone skarn, including up-dip extensions toward Needle Mountain, were included in the resource model;
2. Extension of the Whittle pit model to the south towards Needle Mountain, eliminating the possibility of a potential mill complex on the site of the original Gaspé Copper mill. Two other sites for the potential mill are now under consideration, and
3. Lowering of cut-off grade from 0.15% Cu to 0.12% Cu on the basis of potentially larger mine throughput and replacement of SAG mill by HPGR in the grinding circuit.

Potential for resource expansion

Building upon the information released in this updated MRE, a minimum 70,000 metre drill program is planned to commence in May 2025 that will aim to 1) convert Inferred resources to Indicated category by reducing drill spacing to 100 metres or less within the pit volume, 2) better define higher-grade (0.5 to 1.5% % Cu) mineralization within pit boundaries in the B-Zone and C-Zone skarn horizons, 3) extend up-dip, shallower B-Zone and C-Zone skarn mineralization (near Needle Mountain) beyond current pit boundaries and 4) test shallower (above 600 m depth) portions of the high grade (2%-3% Cu) E-Zone skarn for inclusion into the pit volume.

Implications of larger open pit resource at Gaspé Copper

The current modelled Whittle pit shell extends from the current flooded Copper Mountain pit towards the base of Needle Mountain to the south. Further drilling, geological modelling and pit optimization will be required to refine pit boundaries. The Company will evaluate future pit limits and the possibility of reconfiguring the current layout of the site to minimize disturbance and ensure the protection and safety of the residents of Murdochville and the surrounding environment.

General parameters of the updated Mineral Resource Estimate

This MRE is pit-constrained and includes stockwork mineralization surrounding the past-producing Copper Mountain open pit mine as well as disseminated, stratiform mineralization in both skarn and potassic-altered hornfels (porcellanite) that extends up-dip from Copper Mountain towards Needle Mountain to the south.

The MRE uses, amongst other parameters, a long-term price of US$4.00/lb copper, a lower cut-off of 0.12% Cu for pit shell modelling and a lower cut-off grade of 0.12% copper for base case in-pit resource estimation. The resource was estimated using data from historical drilling completed between the 1950s and 2019 and 42,100 metres of drilling completed by the Company between 2022 and 2024 (see Appendix for detailed parameters).

Mineral Resource Sensitivity

Table 2 shows the resources reported at various in-pit cut-off grades within a pit shell modelled at a lower cut off of 0.12% Cu; the base case resource cut-off grade reported herein is 0.12% copper and is highlighted in bold text:

Table 2: Mineral Resource Estimates at Variable Cut-Off Grades

_{Same footnotes as Table 1 apply to this table.}

Appendix – parameters and criteria used for the Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE)

• General Whittle pit parameters used for the Mineral Resource Estimate include:

• Resources are presented as undiluted and in situ for an open-pit scenario and are considered to have reasonable prospects for economic extraction. The constraining pit shell was developed using overall pit slopes of 48 degrees in bedrock and 20 degrees in overburden. The pit optimization to develop the resource-constraining pit shells was performed using Geovia Whittle 2022 software.
• Composites of 5 to 10 metre lengths were created inside the mineralization volumes. A total of 26,499 composites were generated. High-grade capping was done on the composited assay data; composites were capped from 0.80% to 2.40% for Cu, from 0.10 to 0.20% for Mo, and from 3 to 10g/t for Ag in the stockwork zones, at 1.10% for Cu, 0.12% for Mo, and 5g/t for Ag in the Porphyry, and from 1.00% to 6.00% for Cu, from 0.01 to 0.50% for Mo, and from 5 to 20g/t for Ag in the skarn zones. A restricted search capping approach was also applied to the main skarn zone for Molybdenum and Silver.
• Pit-constrained Mineral Resources for the base case are reported at a lower cut-off grade of 0.12 % Cu in sulfide within a conceptual pit shell based on a 0.12% Cu lower cut-off. The cut-off grades will be re-evaluated on an ongoing basis in light of future prevailing market conditions and costs.
• Contained copper in the resource includes sulfide copper only and soluble copper was ignored. It was assumed for this MRE that only the copper contained in sulfides could have economical potential. Therefore, the soluble copper that is present as oxides and carbonates was removed and significant oxidized zones are all located in the south-west portion of the deposit. The proportion of the copper contained as soluble copper relative to sulfides is correlated to the depth of the mineralization. Therefore, depth from the original topographic surface was modeled and used to estimate the percentage of copper that would be contained as soluble copper within the MRE.
• Specific gravity values were estimated using data available in the historical drill holes. Values were interpolated for most of the mineralized solids and a fixed value was used where the scarcity of the data did not allow for interpolation; the average value is 2.77 tonnes/cubic metre. Surrounding barren lithologies were assigned the average specific gravity value from all measured samples.
• The modelled base case pit shell measures 700 X 2,000 metres and reaches a maximum depth of approximately 800 metres.
• Grade model resource estimation was calculated from drill hole data using an ordinary kriging (OK) interpolation method in a sub-blocked model using blocks measuring 10m x 10 m x 10 m in size and sub-blocks down to 1.25 m x 1.25 m x 1.25 m. Blocks were then regularized to 20 m x 20 m x 10 m.
• The Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource categories are constrained to areas where drill spacing is less than 100 metres and 300 metres, respectively, and show reasonable geological and grade continuity.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Copper Equivalent Grades

Copper Equivalent grades are expressed for purposes of simplicity and are calculated taking into account: 1) metal grades; 2) estimated long-term prices of metals: US$4.00/lb copper, $20.00/lb molybdenum and US$24/oz silver; 3) estimated recoveries of 92%, 70% and 70% for Cu, Mo and Ag respectively; and 4) net smelter return value of metals as percentage of the price, estimated at 86.5%, 90.7% and 75.0% for Cu, Mo and Ag respectively.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Mineral Resources

The mineral resources disclosed in this news release conform to standards and guidelines in National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (‘ NI 43-101 ‘) and were prepared by independent qualified persons for purposes of 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 data is sufficient to imply but not verify geological grade and/or quality of continuity. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence relative to a Measured or Indicated Mineral Resource and constitutes an insufficient level of confidence to allow conversion to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected, but not guaranteed, that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources with additional drilling. The technical report prepared in accordance with NI 43-101, including the mineral resources for the Gaspé Copper Project contained in this news release, will be delivered and filed on SEDAR+ ( www.sedarplus.ca ) under Osisko Metals ‘ issuer profile within 45 days of the date of this news release.

Qualified Persons

The Mineral Resource Estimate and other scientific and technical information in this news release has been prepared and approved by independent qualified persons for purposes of NI 43-101: Pierre-Luc Richard, P.Geo., of PLR Resources Inc. with contributions from François Le Moal, P.Eng., of G-Mining for cut-off grade and Pit Shell optimization and Christian Laroche, P.Eng., from Synectiq, for metallurgical parameters.

West High Yield (W.H.Y.) Resources Ltd. (TSXV: WHY) (the ‘Company’ or ‘West High Yield’) announces that, further to its news releases dated August 29, 2024, September 26, 2024, October 9, 2024 and October 11, 2024, it is closing the final tranche (the ‘Closing’) of its previously announced private placement offering (the ‘Offering’) of units (the ‘Units’). The Company also announces that, further to its news release dated October 9, 2024, it has completed its previously announced shares-for-debt transactions (the ‘Shares for Debt Transactions’) to settle CAD$320,000 in outstanding debt (collectively, the ‘Debt’) owed to with three (3) non-arm’s length lenders (the ‘NAL Creditors’) and one (1) arm’s length lender of the Company (collectively, the ‘Creditors’).

The Closing

The Closing consisted of the issuance of 3,660,935 Units for gross proceeds of CAD$732,187. The Units were issued at a price of CAD$0.20 per Unit, and each Unit consists of one (1) common share of the Company (each, a ‘Common Share‘) and one (1) Common Share purchase warrant (each, a ‘Warrant‘). Each Warrant, together with CAD$0.30, entitles the holder thereof to acquire one (1) additional Common Share for twelve (12) months from the date of the Closing. All securities comprising the Units issued on the Closing are subject to a trading hold period expiring four months plus one day from the date of issuance. In connection with the Closing, the Company issued 10,000 non-transferable share purchase warrants (the ‘Broker Warrants‘) to one (1) arm’s length broker (the ‘Broker‘), equal to 2% of the number of Units issued under the Closing to subscribers introduced by the Broker, and paid the Broker a cash commission of $2,000.00 (the ‘Broker Commission‘), equal to 2% of the aggregate proceeds from the number of Units issued under the Offerings to subscribers introduced by the Broker. The Broker Warrants have identical terms to the Warrants.

The Offering

After completion of the Closing, the Company confirms that it issued a total of 5,690,935 Units for total gross proceeds of $1,138,187.00 under the Offering. Each Unit consisted of one (1) Common Share and one (1) Warrant. Each Warrant, together with CAD$0.30, entitles the holder thereof to acquire one (1) additional Common Share for twelve (12) months from the date of each closing under the Offering. The only compensation provided to brokers under the Offering were the Broker Warrants and Broker Commission noted above pertaining to the final Closing. The Company had initially announced the Offering would consist of the issuance of up to 3,750,000 Units for gross proceeds of up to $750,000.00. The oversubscription, among other items such as the acceptance and final approval of the Offering, remain subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange (the ‘TSXV‘) which the Company has submitted for as of the date of this news release.

The proceeds from the Offering have been and will be used to conclude the Company’s permitting process, covering essential operations, general working capital purposes and expenses, and for supporting the Company’s planned drilling program for the water monitoring holes at its Record Ridge magnesium deposit, as required by the British Columbia Ministry of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation.

The Shares for Debt Transactions

Following receipt of final acceptance from the TSXV for the Shares for Debt Transactions, the Company issued 1,600,000 Common Shares (the ‘Settlement Shares‘) at a deemed issuance price of CAD$0.20 per Settlement Share in full and final satisfaction of the Debt. The Settlement Shares were issued in reliance on certain prospectus exemptions available under Canadian securities legislation and are subject to a trading hold period expiring four months plus one day from the date of issuance.

No new ‘control person’ of the Company was created pursuant to the Shares for Debt Transactions, and no new ‘insiders’ of the Company were created by virtue of holding over 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares upon completion of the Shares for Debt Transactions.

As was announced in the Company’s news release dated October 9, the Shares for Debt Transactions for the NAL Creditors are considered non-arm’s length transactions. The issuance of the Settlement Shares to the NAL Creditors constitutes a ‘related party transaction’ as such term is defined by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (‘MI 61-101‘). The Company was exempt from the MI 61-101 valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements for related party transactions in connection with the Shares for Debt Transactions for the NAL Creditors under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involves the NAL Creditors, exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).
