Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 7, 2017) - Osprey Gold Development Ltd. (TSXV: OS) (the "Company" or "Osprey") is pleased to announce it has entered into a definitive agreement (the "Option Agreement") pursuant to which it has acquired (the "Acquisition") an option (the "Option") to acquire the Caribou Gold Property ("Caribou Property") from John Logan Enterprises Ltd. ("Logan"). Pursuant to the terms of the Option Agreement, Osprey may acquire a 100% interest (subject to certain royalties) in 16 contiguous mining claims (256 hectares) hosting the past-producing Caribou Property located 80 km northeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia (see accompanying map for specific property location and details).

Company President Cooper Quinn said, "Having completed our legal and technical due diligence on the Caribou Project, we're very excited to add it to Osprey's portfolio. It fits well within our portfolio of historic high-grade producers in the Meguma terrane, and we believe Caribou has the potential to hold a sizable gold resource. We're looking forward to getting work started on the property, to begin generating targets in the high grade gold quartz stockwork zones, as well as to test to potential within the overlying argilites. Strategically, the project is in an excellent location, being on the road system, and only 13 kilometres from Atlantic Gold's Moose River Consolidated mineral processing facility."

About the Caribou Property

Strategically located, 8 kilometres north of Atlantic Gold's Touquoy Mine and Moose River Consolidated mill site and completely surrounded by Atlantic Gold claimholdings (see Figure 1 below);
Historic drill results in stockwork zones include 11.2 metres grading 10.86 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold in Hole CM-98-01 and 9.8 metres grading 12.2 g/t gold in Hole SB-88-11 [NTD: Source];
Project area includes broad areas of Halifax Group argillites, a favored host rock for disseminated gold and which at the Caribou Project are largely unexplored;
Reported past production of over 100,000 gold ounces between 1869 and 1955, as reported in a historical technical report titled "NI 43-1 01 Technical Report For the Caribou Gold Property Upper Musquodoboit, Halifax County, Nova Scotia", prepared for Scorpio Gold Corporation by Guy Mac Gillivray, P.Geo. of W.G. Shaw and Associates Limited in a report dated October 8, 2008 (the "Historical Report");
An inferred historic resource of 94,763 ounces of gold in 350,305 tonnes grading 8.81 g/t gold, uncut as set forth in the Historic Report (the "Historic Estimate"); and
Using a grade cap for gold of 47.0 g/t (to compensate for nugget effect) the Historical Estimate for the Caribou Gold Property is 350,305 tonnes grading 5.83 g/t gold, or 67,425 ounces of gold;
The reader is cautioned that a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify this Historical Estimate as current mineral resources and Osprey is not treating this Historical Estimate as a current mineral resource. While this Historical Estimate was prepared using the categories set out in Sections 1.2 and 1.3 of National Instrument 43-101 as defined in the "Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Definition Guidelines" in effect at the time, there is no guarantee that it would be consistent with current standards and it should not be regarded as consistent with current standards. The Historical Estimate is relevant to obtain a reference to mineral potential present on the property. The Company has not undertaken any verification of the historical data upon which the historical estimates are based on.

Figure 1 - Location map for Caribou Project, Halifax County, Nova Scotia

The Historical Report discloses that underground production from the Caribou district was first recorded in 1869. Since then approximately 108,250 ounces of historical gold production has been documented from the property in various production records and reports. Mining and milling records indicate an average mined grade of approximately 13 g/t, with local areas of 68 g/t. The Historic Estimate includes distinctive zones of gold in stockwork veining hosted by shears within the anticline. These contain broader zones of high grade gold than normally seen in the camp.

Lode gold mineralization is interpreted to be controlled by a north-northwest striking low angle axial structure that cuts the 35 km-long Caribou-Cochrane Hill Anticline.

General Electric's Future Suddenly Looks Even Worse
Shares of General Electric Co. (GE) were down 3.5% to $24.05 in midday trading Thursday after analysts at JPMorgan maintained their "underweight" rating and $22 price target while saying that the company's outlook is even worse than it previously thought in a note today. The price target represents a potential 12% downside from the stock's previous closing price. Analysts at the firm believe that the company is tight on cash, but its dividend is safe, for now. "Based on our standing [free cash flow] estimates and estimates for outflow from investing activities, GE is already below breakeven when it comes to funding the dividend with ongoing FCF, with compounding risk if fundamentals come in

JPMorgan: GE's fall is ‘worse than we think’
The Boston-based company's stock is down 23% since January 1, and it isn't showing signs of a rebound around anytime soon. JPMorgan isn’t convinced there will be a turnaround, and this morning reiterated its underweight rating for the stock, reducing its price target to $22 — 21% below Wall Street consensus, according to Bloomberg. GE’s new CEO John Flannery, who took over in June, is looking for ways to reduce costs by eliminating senior-level jobs and implementing a technology hiring freeze, Reuters reported last week.

Bovis says it will fix home faults by end of 2017
Housebuilder Bovis says it will have fixed the problems with its faulty homes by the end of 2017. In its half-year results statement, the firm said it had identified the issues and they were "all very fixable". Some Bovis customers had complained about homes being sold unfinished, and had reported plumbing and electrical faults in new properties. The firm, which has already set aside more than £10m for the problem, saw profits fall 31% to £42.7m. It said this was due to several issues, including fixing the faulty homes, as well as the costs of defending itself from two takeover bids this year.

This Market Is Playing 'Wait and See' With Hurricane Irma
It is slow and choppy out there, which can make it quite tempting to make market predictions. It feels more productive to have some dramatic market thesis, rather than just sit back and wait for something to happen. But from a trading standpoint, it is typically better to wait and see what develops, rather than try to make predictions in an uncertain environment. For some reason, there is a sense that the market is waiting to see what happens with Hurricane Irma. It isn't likely to be a major market moving event but it is likely to disrupt the lives of quite a few people and it is hard not to feel some empathy. The indices have been moving around randomly intraday with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq

Should You Buy Ambarella at a 52-Week Low? -- The Motley Fool
It's been a brutal year for Ambarella (NASDAQ:AMBA) investors. The chipmaker's stock plunged nearly 40% over the past 12 months, and currently hovers near a 52-week low. But investors looking at Ambarella's top and bottom line growth might initially be baffled since it posted positive year-over-year revenue growth over the past four quarters while beating analyst estimates on the top and bottom lines. But looking ahead, analysts expect Ambarella's revenue and non-GAAP earnings to respectively fall 5% and 35% this year -- compared to a 2% sales drop and 12% earnings decline last year. Those numbers look dismal for a stock that trades at 24 times earnings, which is higher than the industry average
