ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Nov. 2, 2016) -

Note to Editors: There are two figures associated with this press release.

Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RDS) ("Radisson") is pleased to announce gold assay results from the last three holes of the summer 2016 drill program at the O'Brien gold project along the Abitibi Greenstone Belt, Quebec.

Mario Bouchard, President and CEO commented: "We are delighted with the consistency of the results obtained within gold mineralized zone intersected. The quality of the asset owned at 100% by Radisson in a world-renowned mining camp is underpinned by these results. Our approach to increase mineral resources through additional drilling is also validated. In parallel, the two visible gold intersections obtained within the Pontiac Group sedimentary rocks in drill hole OB-16-11 continues to fuel the potential for additional discovery in this sector. To this extent, "Orevision" Induced polarization survey was completed this week in collaboration with Abitibi Geophysics Inc. Results are currently being compiled and should generate additional exploration drilling targets in the Pontiac Group sedimentary package".

Hole OB-16-12 was drilled in historic resources extension of "F Zone" between the 36E area and the old O'Brien mine (See figure 1). Drill holes OB-16-11 and OB-16-9 were completed in ore shoot extensions of 36E and Kewagama areas (See figure 2). Two out of the three drill holes have intersected visible gold.

• Drill hole OB-16-12 intersected 4.99 g/t Au over 5.0 m (within an intersection of 3.00 g/t Au over 16.00 m) at a depth of 520 metres in extension of historic "F zone" between the old O'Brien mine and 36E area (See figure 1).

• Drill hole OB-16-11 intersected 4.72 g/t Au over 1.0 m at a depth of 587 m. Note that due to deviation the hole did not intersect targeted area within the Volcanic Piché group. (See figure 2).

• Drill hole OB-16-9 intersected 3.93 g/t Au over 2.0 m at a depth of 503 m and 3.20 g/t Au over 3.0 m in vertical extension of current mineral resources.

• Pontiac Group sedimentary package was crossed by the 3 drill holes. Hole OB-16-11 intersected visible gold at a depth of 315.5 m within the Pontiac Group and graded 3.82 g/t Au over 1.5 m.

Results summary at the O'Brien project

10,000 metres drill program update

In mid-September, the corporation started an additional drill program of 10,000 metres. Up to date, 3 drill holes were completed for a total of 1,826 metres. The main focus of this new drill program remains to increase inferred resources by targeting the extension of ore shoots in the Piché volcanic group from surface to a depth of 500m. All drill holes are completed with a South-North orientation and should also cross the Pontiac Group sedimentary package.

Historic review and data compilation update

The review of historic drill core is underway since September. Many samples were collected and sent for assaying. Results are pending.

All drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Analyses were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. The samples were analyzed using standard fire assay procedures with AA finish at Techni-Lab Actlabs in Ste-Germaine-Boulé in Abitibi, Quebec. Samples yielding a grade higher than 5 g/t were analyzed a second time by fire assay with gravimetric finish at the same laboratory. Assays containing visible gold were reanalyzed with metallic sieve procedure. Standard reference materials and blank samples were inserted prior to shipment for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) program.
