OSISKO IS COMMITTED TO CONTRIBUTING WHERE IT WORKS AND OPERATES
We are committed to contributing and promoting:
CANADIAN MINERAL INDUSTRY EDUCATION FOUNDATION (“CMIEF”)
The CMIEF is proud to support the Canadian mineral industry since 1964. Osisko, a leading donor of the foundation, has assumed the responsibility of managing its activities since 2018. The foundation is the largest provider of university scholarships to those entering the mining industry in Canada and is supported by several Canadian mining companies committed to ensuring that students are aware of, and will be attracted to, the possibilities for rewarding careers in the mining sector.
In 2021, the CMIEF provided scholarships to 171 students all across the country. In 2021, the gender split of recipients was ~70% male and 30% female, comprising a slightly higher proportion of females compared to the previous year. We are pleased to be promoting the mining industry to a new generation and specifically increasing the amount of women entering the mining sector.
EVERY STUDENT, EVERY DAY PROGRAM- VICTORIA GOLD CORPORATION
In 2019, Osisko committed to contributing $15,000 per year for five years to the Eagle Gold Mine Every Student, Every Day program. This program targets reducing student absenteeism throughout the Yukon and has been operating since 2012.
FONDS RESTOR-ACTION NUNAVIK
The Fonds Restor-Action Nunavik (“FRAN”) consists of 30 mineral exploration companies operating throughout Québec and whose common goal is the cleaning and rehabilitation of abandoned mining sites in partnership with governments, Inuit and Firsts Nations. Osisko has been involved in the FRAN since its creation. The new generation of mining and exploration companies want to demonstrate that not only do they have more stringent environmental management practices and social responsibility but that they are also capable of taking concrete steps to carry out the rehabilitation of priority sites and ensure compliance with environmental standards established for ongoing and future activities.
