Toronto, Ontario – May 3, 2019 – Orefinders Resources Inc. (“Orefinders” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: ORX) is pleased to announce that it has acquired 11,850,000 shares of Mistango River Resources (“Mistango”) (CNX: MIS), or over 31% of the shares outstanding, from Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd (“Osisko”) in exchange for issuing 5 million Orefinders shares to Osisko. Mistango owns a series of assets including the past producing Omega Gold mine, located 5km west of Orefinders’ McGarry Mine project, and 15km northeast of Orefinders’ Mirado project.

About Mistango’s Omega Project

The Omega Mine produced over 215,000 ounces of gold between 1935 and 1947. Omega’s NI 43-101 resource estimate was completed in 2013, consisting of an indicated resource of 4.92 million tonnes grading 1.39 gpt gold (219,808 ounces), and an inferred resource of 4.69 million tonnes grading 2.43 gpt gold (365,400 ounces).

The preceding information is derived from the technical report filed by Mistango titled “Omega Property – McVittie Township, Ontario, Canada” dated effective May 10, 2013 and filed on SEDAR by Mistango on July 10, 2013.  The report indicates that it is prepared in accordance with NI 43-101.  Although Orefinders considers it to be reliable, Orefinders is treating it as an historical estimate, not a current mineral resource, as Orefinders has not yet had a qualified person do the work necessary to confirm that it may be classified as a current mineral resource.

“We are pleased to welcome Osisko as a shareholder of Orefinders. The acquisition of 31% of Mistango River Resources from Osisko is an excellent opportunity for Orefinders to increase its footprint within the prolific Kirkland Lake-Larder Lake camp. This acquisition is in line with our strategy of consolidating the Cadillac Larder-Lake Break. The Omega mine is strategically located along the Cadillac Larder-Lake Break proximal to Orefinders’ McGarry Mine and Barber Larder projects. Furthermore, it shares synergies with Orefinders’ Mirado project, which is just 15km southwest of Omega as well as Agnico Eagle’s Upper Beaver—just 7km north of Omega.” said Stephen Stewart, Orefinders’ CEO.
