Appian Capital, a private equity firm, completed an $74m investment in Osisko, a mining company. “We are delighted to welcome Appian as a long-term joint-venture partner for the advancement of the Pine Point Project. This milestone agreement is a significant endorsement and daylights the considerable intrinsic value of Pine Point. The Transaction allows us to leverage Appian’s extensive mine development experience and includes a crucial investment of C$75 million into the Project that will advance the development of Pine Point to a “shovel-ready” status. This funding is expected to cover all costs including final definition drilling, additional exploration drilling, feasibility, environmental assessment and permitting, including Indigenous engagements. This joint venture, coupled with Appian’s significant cash payments to Osisko Metals and C$5 million equity investment, will allow Osisko Metals to focus on the development of other projects while avoiding excessive dilution to advance the Pine Point Project,” Robert Wares, Osisko Chairman & CEO.
