03:29 PM EDT, 06/06/2019 (MT Newswires) -- Osisko Mining Inc. (OSK.TO) on Thursday afternoon announced the discovery of a new gold bearing zone at its 100% owned Urban Barry gold project located in the Abitibi greenstone belt, Urban Township, Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec. The new gold zone is located two kilometres south-west of the Fox discovery and consists of pyrite stringers hosted in a sericite altered dacite/ felsic intrusion.

Osisko President and Chief Executive Officer John Burzynski in a statement said: "Renewed shallow exploration drilling at Fox has turned up significant new results two kilometres to the west of the initial Fox discovery holes. The similarities between the mineralization style at Fox and Windfall make for the exciting possibility of developing another deposit in parallel with our ongoing program at Windfall. Additional exploration holes between the initial discovery area and Fox West are planned."
