**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Osisko Development Announces Positive Feasibility Study Results for the Cariboo Gold Project**

**163,695 Ounces of Average Annual Gold Production Over 12 Year Mine Life Bulk Tonnage UG Mining with Ore Sorting to Minimize Cost & Environmental Footprint Initial Probable Mineral Reserves of 2.03 Moz of Gold (16.7 Mt at 3.78 g/t Au) After-tax NPV5% of C$502 Million and 20.7% IRR (unlevered) at US$1,700/oz Au EA Certificate Process Progressed to Final Effects Assessment Phase**

*(All dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)*

MONTREAL, Jan. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- **Osisko Development Corp.** (NYSE: ODV, TSXV: ODV) ("**Osisko Development**" or the "**Company**") is pleased to announce the results of an independent Feasibility Study ("**FS**" or the "**Technical Report**") prepared by BBA Engineering Ltd. ("**BBA**") in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – *Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects* ("**NI 43-101**") for the Company's 100%-owned Cariboo Gold Project ("**Cariboo**" or the "**Project**"), located in central British Columbia. The Company intends to file the Technical Report on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and on EDGAR (www.sec.gov) under Osisko Development's issuer profile within 45 days of the date of this news release.

The FS outlines a robust and scalable phased development base case with low initial capital intensity of $137.3 million and attractive operating costs for the underground development of the Cariboo Gold Project, producing approximately 1.87 million ounces ("**Moz**") of gold ("**Au**") over a 12-year mine life.

Initial production (Phase 1) in the first three years contemplates a 1,500 tonne per day ("**tpd**") operation from the Lowhee, Shaft and Mosquito deposits, yielding average annual production of 72,501 ounces. Concurrently, underground development will advance to ramp up operations to 4,900 tpd in year four, increasing average annual production to 193,798 ounces in Phase 2, with potential to scale production further in the future.

Underground mining will be conducted using highly-mechanized, low-cost bulk tonnage methods designed to target the extraction of ore contained in gold vein corridors: a high-density network of mineralized quartz veins hosted mainly within unmineralized sandstone. A pre-concentration ore sorting facility is expected to significantly improve processed grades by separating non-mineralized material from ore, while substantially reducing processing volumes, energy costs, and the overall environmental impact footprint of the operation with fewer tailings, reduced water usage and ability to use waste as backfill.

The Company remains on track for completing the Environmental Assessment ("**EA**") process early in the second quarter of 2023 and anticipates receiving final permits by the end of 2023 (see *"Permitting"* below).

**FEASIBILITY STUDY HIGHLIGHTS:**

* $502 million after-tax net present value at a 5% discount rate ("**NPV5%**") (pre-tax $691 million) at a base case gold price of US$1,700 per ounce ("**/oz**") and CAD:USD exchange rate of 0.77;

* 20.7% after-tax internal rate or return ("**IRR**") (pre-tax 24.4%);

* $79 million average annual after-tax free cash flow ("**FCF**");

* $901 million cumulative after-tax life-of-mine ("**LOM**") FCF;

* 163,695 ounces ("**oz**") of Au LOM average annual production; 72,501 oz Au Phase 1 (years 1 to 3) average annual production;193,798 oz Au Phase 2 (years 4 to 12) average annual production; 

* 1.87 Moz LOM total cumulative gold production;

* 3.78 grams per tonne ("**g/t**") Au average LOM diluted head grade: 4.43 g/t Au in Phase I (post-ore sorting 8.20 g/t Au);3.72 g/t Au in Phase II (post-ore sorting 6.39 g/t Au); 

* 92.0% average LOM recovery rate (93.6% in Phase I, 91.8% in Phase II);

* $102.6 per tonne ("**$/t**") mined LOM total unit operating costs;

* Probable Mineral Reserves containing 16.7 million tonnes ("**Mt**") at an average grade of 3.78 g/t Au for a total of 2.03 Moz of gold;

* US$792/oz Au LOM average cash costs;

* US$968/oz LOM average all-in sustaining costs ("**AISC**");

* $137.3 million Phase 1 initial capital expenditures (including $10.3 million in contingency costs);

* $451.1 million Phase 2 expansion capital expenditures (including $36.7 million in contingency costs);

* Peak full labour force (Phase 2) of 550 persons during operations and 635 during expansion construction.

Sean Roosen, Chair of the Board and CEO of Osisko Development, commented, "This feasibility study demonstrates that the Cariboo Gold Project will be a large-scale, long-life and profitable gold mine. It will also produce significant quantities of gold in its initial years at a capital cost below $140 million. By phasing construction, we have minimized our exposure to development risk at Cariboo, optimized the sequencing of the assets in our portfolio and maximized our ability to scale Cariboo to reach its full potential in the future. We envision Cariboo as a project that will be a cash flow engine for the company for decades into the future. Historic mining in the district was focused on individual veins and replacement bodies with grades in excess of 12 g/t Au, which is consistent with our work completed to date. Once underground, we are excited to apply our strong understanding of the controls on mineralization to unlock Cariboo's vast exploration potential at depth within the current mining zones, which we believe have strong potential to continue across Cariboo's 83-kilometer mineralized trends."

**ECONOMIC ANALYSIS**

The Company used a base case gold price assumption of US$1,700/oz and a CAD:USD exchange rate of 0.77 in its analysis and incorporated only Probable Mineral Reserves as defined herein. Based on these assumptions, the Project generates an after-tax NPV5% of $502 million and an after-tax IRR of 20.7% on an unlevered basis. The FS economics are most sensitive to fluctuations in the following inputs, in order of magnitude of impact: gold price, operating costs, and capital costs.

 **MINERAL RESERVES AND MINERAL RESOURCES**

**Vein Corridors**

Vein Corridors of the Cariboo Gold Project Mineral Resources and Reserves comprise a high-density network of mineralized quartz veins hosted within unmineralized sandstone. Individual mineralized veins within these corridors have widths varying from centimeters to several meters ("**m**") and strike lengths from a few meters to over 50 m. These corridors have been defined from surface to a vertical depth of 650 m, averaging 300m, and remain open for expansion at depth and along strike. Gold grades are intimately associated with quartz vein-hosted pyrite as well as pyritic, intensely silicified wall rock haloes in close proximity to the veins.

**Mineral Resources Estimate**

The FS includes an updated Mineral Resources estimate incorporating an additional 35,578 meters of drilling data from Shaft, Valley, and Lowhee completed since May 24, 2022 being the effective date of the technical report titled "*Preliminary Economic Assessment for the Cariboo Gold Project, District of Well, British Columbia, Canada",* dated May 24, 2022 for the deposits of Cow Mountain (Cow and Valley Zones), Island Mountain (Shaft and Mosquito Zones), and Barkerville Mountain (Lowhee and KL Zones). This resulted in an increase of 6% of total gold ounces in the Inferred Resources category. Measured and Indicated resources are exclusive of Mineral Reserves. Mineral Resources have an effective date of November 11, 2022.

Notes:

* Mineral Resources are exclusive of Mineral Reserves. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

* The Mineral Resource Estimate conforms to the 2014 CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves and follows the 2019 CIM Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practice Guidelines.

* A total of 481 vein zones were modelled for the Cow Mountain (Cow and Valley), Island Mountain (Shaft and Mosquito), Barkerville Mountain (BC Vein, KL, and Lowhee) deposits and one gold zone for Bonanza Ledge. A minimum true thickness of 2.0 m was applied, using the Au gold grade of the adjacent material when assayed or a value of zero when not assayed.

* The estimate is reported for a potential underground scenario at a cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t Au, except for Bonanza Ledge at a cut-off grade of 3.5 g/t Au. The cut-off grade for the Cow, Valley, Shaft, Mosquito, BC Vein, KL, and Lowhee deposits was calculated using a gold price of US$1,700/oz; a USD:CAD exchange rate of 1.27; a global mining cost of $54.32/t; a processing and transport cost of $22.29/t;a G&A plus Environmental cost of $15.31/t; and a sustaining CapEx cost of $31.19/t. The cut-off grade for the Bonanza Ledge deposit was calculated using a gold price of US$1,700/oz; a USD:CAD exchange rate of 1.27; a global mining cost of $79.13/t; a processing and transport cost of $65.00/t; and a G&A plus Environmental cost of $51.65/t. The cut-off grades should be re-evaluated in light of future prevailing market conditions (metal prices, exchange rate, mining cost, etc.).

* Bulk density varies from 2.69 g/cm<sup>3</sup> to 3.20 g/cm<sup>3</sup>.

* A four-step capping procedure was applied to composited data. Restricted search ellipsoids ranged from 7 to 50 g/t Au at four different distances ranging from 25 m to 250 m. High-grades at Bonanza Ledge were capped at 70 g/t Au on 2.0 m composited data.

* The gold Mineral Resources for the Cow, Valley, Shaft, Mosquito, BC Vein, KL, and Lowhee vein zones were estimated using Datamine Studio<sup>TM</sup> RM 1.9 software using hard boundaries on composited assays. The silver Mineral Resources and the dilution halo gold mineralization were estimated using Datamine Studio<sup>TM</sup> RM Pro 1.11. The OK method was used. Mineral Resources for Bonanza Ledge were estimated using GEOVIA GEMS<sup>TM</sup> 6.7 software using hard boundaries on composited assays. The OK method was used to interpolate a block model.

* Results are presented in situ. Calculations used metric units (meters, tonnes, g/t). Any discrepancies in the totals are due to rounding effects.

**Mineral Reserves Estimate**

Probable Mineral Reserves of 16.7 Mt grading 3.78 g/t Au for 2.03 Moz of contained gold in underground deposits, as defined below, have an effective date of December 6, 2022 and form the basis of the FS. Only Mineral Resources that were classified as Measured and Indicated were given economic attributes in the mine design and when demonstrating economic viability were classified as Mineral Reserves, incorporating an external mining dilution factor of 8% into the Mineral Reserves estimate.

Notes:

* Totals may not add up due to rounding.

* Mineral Reserves have been estimated in accordance with CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (2014), which are incorporated by reference in NI 43-101.

* Mineral Reserves used the following assumptions: US$1,700/oz gold price, USD:CAD exchange rate of 1.27, and variable cut-off value from 1.70 g/t to 4.00 g/t Au

* Mineral Reserves include both internal and external dilution along with mining recovery. The external dilution is estimated to be 8%. The average mining recovery factor was set at 93.6% to account for ore left in each block in the margins of the deposit.

The FS focused on presenting a mine plan consistent with the objective of minimizing the overall environmental and carbon footprint of the Project on the surrounding communities, leveraging energy efficient mining technologies, including potential electrification of the full mining fleet, and reducing the overall economic risk associated with significant capital outlays at the onset of project development. With this in mind, development and exploitation activities are expected to focus on two distinct phases of operations.

Initial capital cost for the Project in Phase 1 is estimated at $137.4 million, with total expansion capital costs in Phase II estimated at $451.1 million, and to be incurred over years 2, 3 and 4. Sustaining capital costs over the LOM are estimated at $466.6 million. Total cumulative LOM capital costs are estimated at $1,055.1 million, not including site reclamation and closure costs of $17.3 million and estimated salvage value of $56.2 million. Capital costs for Phase 1 do not include sunk costs ($2.5 million) or pre-permit expenses ($64.8 million) planned for 2023. The overall capital cost estimate developed in this FS generally meets the AACE International Class 3 requirements and has an accuracy range of between -10% and +15%. A total of $10.3 million in contingency capital (P50) was included for Phase 1, representing approximately 12.7% of initial capital, not including mobile equipment and underground mine development costs.

**MINING AND MINE DESIGN**

Underground mining is expected to target a total of five mineralized zones over a strike length of 4,400 meters accessed by two underground ramps from the Cow and Valley portals. Each zone comprises several mineralized vein systems down to a depth of approximately 650 m and is expected to support an initial 1,500 tpd production rate over the first 3 years (Phase 1) before ramping up to 4,900 tpd (pending permitting) for 9 years (Phase 2).

The bulk-tonnage long hole mining method was primarily selected given the nature of the sub-vertical geometry of mineralized veins, the relative lower cost, and the ability to utilize rejected waste rock from ore sorting as backfill material. Mining dilution is expected to be mitigated with the application of an ore sorting technology, which is able to cost-efficiently separate gold-bearing ore intimately associated with sulphur (essentially pyrite) from the lower density unmineralized sandstone rock which is mainly hosting the ore (see *"Processing"* section). Although stope strike lengths vary by zone, the minimum designed stope width for all zones is approximately 3.7 m and stope height approximately 30 m.

Ore will be extracted using a fleet of 10 tonnes scooptram Load Haul Dump and 50 tonne haul trucks and will be transported to an underground crushing facility where it will be sized and transported to surface for pre-concentration sorting and flotation via a vertical conveyor.

Underground development will rely on a combination of traditional jumbos and roadheaders. The Company has previously successfully deployed a roadheader in excavating the Cow portal and one drift in Bonanza Ledge, demonstrating the amenable nature of the underground rock conditions.

**PROCESSING**

The processing flowsheet under the initial phase of production is expected to utilize ore sorting and leaching with a total throughput capacity of 1,500 tpd. In Phase 2, throughput capacity will be expanded to 4,900 tpd, with the addition of a flotation circuit. In the first phase, ore will be initially pre-concentrated using mobile crushing and ore sorting, which will significantly reduce the overall volume, transportation costs, and overall footprint of the operation. Following ore sorting, ore will be trucked to the Company's Quesnel River ("**QR**") Mill located 116 kilometres from site for further comminution, leaching, and refining. The QR Mill is a fully-permitted existing plant under care and maintenance with a daily capacity to treat 860 tonnes of ore.

In the second phase, for the expanded throughput of 4,900 tpd, a crushing facility will be constructed underground with ore subsequently brought to surface using a conveyor system. Crushed material will be screened to separate fine material, below 10 mm, and coarse material 10 to 25 mm. The coarse material will go to ore sorting, where gold-bearing material will be separated from waste. Fines and coarse particles will then go through a grinding circuit. Ground material will be sent to flotation for the last stage of pre-concentration. Ore sorting, grinding and flotation processing activities will be conducted in a service building at the Mine Site Complex ("**MSC**"). The MSC services building will serve as a pre-concentration step to reduce the overall operation and transportation costs producing a concentrate of approximately to 25 to 33 g/t Au.

Overall Project gold recovery over the LOM is expected to be 92.0%.

The implementation of mineral sorting is expected to provide several meaningful benefits in the processing flowsheet of the Project, namely:

* 44% reduction in total material to be processed through grinding using a cost-efficient XRT sorter;

* Expected to increase feed grade from LOM average mined grade of 3.78 g/t Au to 8.94 g/t Au, based on an estimated waste rock reduction (mass pull) of 40% and 95.6% Au recovery expected to be achieved via ore sorting;

* Eliminates the requirement for a Tailings Storage Facility ("**TSF**") for the MSC located in Wells;

* Only approximately 16% of all extracted ore would generate tailings to be stored at the existing QR Mill TSF as filtered tailings, due to ore sorting and flotation pre-concentration;

**INFRASTRUCTURE**

Surface infrastructure and services are designed to support the operations at the Wells Mine Site Complex, the Bonanza Ledge Site, and at the QR Mill. The Project also includes off-site infrastructure, such as a new 66 kV transmission line (70 km) between the Barlow substation, near Quesnel, and the Mine Site Complex. The Project benefits from existing surface infrastructure particularly at the Bonanza Ledge Site and QR Mill, reducing the overall upfront capital outlay required for start-up of operations. Existing infrastructure includes, but is not limited to: access roads, underground access portals, overburden stockpiles, waste storage facility, water management infrastructure, and a water treatment plant.

**PERMITTING, ENVIRONMENTAL AND CLOSURE**

On November 30, 2022, the Environmental Assessment Office of British Columbia ("**EAO**") informed the Company that the EA process with respect to the Cariboo Gold Project has progressed to the Effects Assessment phase of the EA process. In accordance with the BC *Environmental Assessment Act* (2018), the Effects Assessment phase is one of the final steps required prior to the issuance of an Environmental Assessment Certificate ("**EAC**" or "**EA Certificate**") and follows a maximum 150-day legislative timeline to issue a proposed set of project recommendations (Figure 2).

The Company started the EA process with the submission of the Initial Project Description in early 2020 under the new BC *Environmental Assessment Act* (2018) guidelines. A Draft Application was submitted to the EAO on July 28, 2021 and 1,715 comments were received from the Technical Advisory Committee. A Revised Application was submitted to the EAO on October 14, 2022, which addressed all 1,715 comments received during the Application Review phase and received approval and support from all participating Indigenous nations in respect of the Cariboo Gold Project.

The receipt of the EAC is a key milestone and a critical step forward in advancing the Cariboo Gold Project through the provincial and federal permitting process.

In addition to the provincial EAC approval, the Project requires federal and provincial permits, approvals and authorizations. As the Project proceeds, specific permit requirements will be determined based on discussions with the regulatory agencies. As previously noted, in parallel to the EA process, the Company initiated an official application for the permitting of the Cariboo Gold Project with the submission of the Project Description to the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Low-Carbon Innovation and Ministry of Environment on September 30, 2022.

A Project Charter has been developed in coordination with the Major Mines Office for the permitting process and lays out the groundwork for the communication protocols and agreement on timelines for submission and review of the Application. Based on the Project Charter and agreed upon schedule with Major Mines Office, the Company anticipates receiving final permits by the end of 2023.

**Figure 2: Summary of Steps Required to Obtain an EAC** Figure 2 accompanying this announcement is available at https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/579afb75-7526-4d6f-a7c6-8f627263085b

**STAKEHOLDER, COMMUNITY, AND PARTNER ENGAGEMENT**

The Company's commitment to responsible mining practices, strong relationships, mutual support and benefits with Indigenous nations, local partners, neighbouring communities and all stakeholders is an integral part of the development of the Cariboo Gold Project. The forming of positive relationships has resulted in the signing of Project-related Agreements with Lhtako Dené Nation (2016 and 2020) and Williams Lake First Nation (2021) and a Collaboration Agreement with the BC Government for the Reclamation of the Jack of Clubs Lake Tailings Area located in the District of Wells. Discussions with the Xatśūll First Nation and the District of Wells are ongoing with the goal of signing agreements in the near future.

**ROYALTIES**

A 5.0% Net Smelter Royalty ("**NSR**") is the only royalty that applies to the Mineral Resources and Reserves area of the Project and has been incorporated into the economic analysis of the FS.

**POTENTIAL VALUE ENHANCEMENT OPPORTUNITIES**

* Inferred Resources presented in Table 5 could potentially be converted to Indicated Resources with additional drilling. Indicated Resources could potentially be converted into Mineral Reserves if economic viability is demonstrated with further economic studies. New Inferred or Indicated Resources could potentially be added to Mineral Reserves with further exploration drilling adjacent to the known deposits.

* An increase in Mineral Reserves could potentially support a Phase 2 expansion case scenario with higher throughput capacity capability, subject to permitting, resulting in potentially larger scale production. Osisko Development should consider additional NI 43-101 compliant studies to explore whether an expansion case scenario with higher throughput capacity could, subject to permitting, ultimately result in larger scale production from the Project.

* Latest testing of mineral sorting technology indicates improved recoveries using particle size consideration in the sorting algorithm. This could increase overall gold recovery for the Cariboo Project.

* Silver content and recoveries are currently considered as a minor source of revenues for the Project, due to lack of available information (silver was not assayed for a large portion of early drilling campaign). All future drill samples will be assayed for silver and incorporated into future resource models, to potentially add revenues to the Project.

* The Cariboo claim package remains largely untested. A total strike length of anomalous surface samples and historic mines or mineral showings totals 83 km. Drill programs have been designed and are permitted for approximately 25 targets.
