OSK-W-17-827 returned 12.7 g/t Au over 2.0 metres including 25.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre. Mineralization is hosted in a moderately sericitized and silicified rhyolite with 10-30% porphyritic smoky quartz and 2-4 % pyrite in clusters and disseminated. Local tourmaline ptygmatic and quartz tourmaline veins are also observed. This interval corresponds to the Lynx 5 west extension.
OSK-W-17-868 intersected two intervals of mineralization. The first interval returned 5.54 g/t Au over 5.4 metres including 10.0 g/t Au over 2.3 metres, hosted in a porphyritic felsic intrusion with carbonate veinlets and patches of pervasive silica flooding, with 5% pyrite and 1% tourmaline. Correlates to Lynx 1 and is 27 metres north-east of OSK-W-17-845 which returned 10.7 g/t Au over 2.0 metres (previously reported July 25, 2017). The second interval returned 4.40 g/t Au over 2.2 metres. This intersect corresponds to a crustiform vein and tourmaline-quartz vein in the gabbro with 5% pyrite, 1% tourmaline, and traces of sphalerite and fuschite in the walls. The intercept correlates with the crustiform vein intercepted in OSK-W-17-878, located 35 metres north-east which returned 16.8 g/t Au over 2.0 metres (previously reported July 25, 2017).
OSK-W-17-881 returned a bonanza grade of 379 g/t Au over 2.0 metres including 1260 g/t Au over 0.6 metres (30.7 g/t Au over 2.0 metres cut). Local visible gold was observed in silica flooding alteration containing 50% pyrite at the contact between a gabbro and a felsic volcanic. This intersect correlates to Lynx 2, 35 metres south-west of OSK-W-17-837 returning 97.4 g/t Au over 8.4 metres (previously reported May 24, 2017)
OSK-W-17-883 returned 3.07 g/t Au over 2.2 metres. Mineralization is a crustiform vein with 5% disseminated pyrite and pyrite stringers hosted in a gabbro with sericite-fuschite-carbonate-silica alteration and minor quartz veining.

Qualified Person

The scientific and technical content of this news release has been reviewed, prepared and approved by Mr. Louis Grenier, M.Sc.A., P.Geo. (OGQ 800), Project Manager of the Windfall Lake gold project, who is a “Qualified Person” as defined by National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”).
Quality Control and Reporting Protocols

True widths determinations are estimated at 65-80% of the reported core length intervals for most of the zones. Assays are uncut except where indicated. Intercepts occur within geological confines of major zones but have not been correlated to individual vein domains at this time. Reported intervals include minimum weighted averages of 3.0 g/t Au diluted over core lengths of at least 2.0 metres. All NQ core assays reported were obtained by either 1-kilogram screen fire assay or standard 50-gram fire-assaying-AA finish or gravimetric finish at ALS Laboratories in Val d’Or, Québec, Thunder Bay and Sudbury, Ontario or Vancouver, British Colombia or Bureau Veritas in Timmins, Ontario. The 1-kilogram screen assay method is selected by the geologist when samples contain coarse gold or present a higher percentage of pyrite than surrounding intervals. Selected samples are also analyzed for multi-elements, including silver, using an Aqua Regia-ICP-AES method at ALS Laboratories. Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”) and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with NI 43-101 and industry best practices. Standards and blanks are included with every 20 samples for QA/QC purposes by the Corporation as well as the lab. Approximately 5% of sample pulps are sent to secondary laboratories for check assay.
About the Windfall Lake Gold Deposit

The Windfall Lake gold deposit is located between Val-d’Or and Chibougamau in the Abitibi region of Québec, Canada. The mineral resource defined by the previous operator comprises 2.762.000 tonnes at 8.42 g/t Au (748.000 ounces) in the indicated category and 3,512,000 tonnes at 7.62 g/t Au (860,000 ounces) in the inferred category (sourced from a technical report dated June 10, 2015 entitled “Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Windfall Lake Gold Property, Québec, Canada” with an effective date of April 28, 2015, prepared in accordance with NI 43-101). The Windfall Lake gold deposit is currently one of the highest grade resource-stage gold projects in Canada. The bulk of the mineralization occurs in the Main Zone, a southwest/northeast trending zone of stacked mineralized lenses, measuring approximately 600 metres wide and at least 1.400 metres long. The deposit is well defined from surface to a depth of 500 metres, and remains open along strike and at depth. Mineralization has been identified only 30 metres from surface in some areas and as deep as 870 metres in others, with significant potential to extend mineralization up and down-plunge and at depth.
