MONTREAL, QUEBEC (FRANKFURT: EWX) is very pleased to announce
that the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada has
selected Osisko to receive the 2007 Bill Dennis Prospector of the
Year Award. This award, which honours the memory of a PDAC past
president, is presented annually at the association's annual
convention to a person or team who has/have made an important
contribution to the prospecting and/or exploration industry. Osisko
is being recognized for its discovery and ambitious expansion of
the gold resource on the Canadian Malartic property and for the
company's determination to move ahead to production in 2010.
The presentation of this award will be made at the PDAC's Annual
Awards Banquet, which will be held during the PDAC Convention in
Toronto on March 3, 2008. The Award will be accepted by Sean
Roosen, President & CEO, Robert Wares, Executive Vice President
and COO, and John Burzynski, Vice President of Corporate
Development.
Osisko President & CEO, Sean Roosen commented: "It is a
great honour for the company to have been selected as the winner of
the Bill Dennis Prospector of the Year Award. On behalf of the
entire team I would like to thank the PDAC for this recognition, as
well as the residents and the town council of Malartic for their
ongoing support of our project. Canadian Malartic proves once again
that Canada still holds significant discovery potential. It is our
hope that our success at Canadian Malartic will stimulate further
exploration in the region, and that continued work will lead to the
discovery and development of new mines."
Osisko Exploration Ltd. is currently evaluating the Canadian
Malartic gold deposit and adjacent areas for a large-scale open
pit, bulk-tonnage mining operation. The Company is well-funded with
approximately $180 million on hand and is carrying out an
aggressive definition drilling and exploration campaign on the
Canadian Malartic deposit and surrounding property.
