and CEO of Osino. "We are now working to obtain approvals from
regulatory authorities, namely the Namibian Competition Commission,
the National Development and Reform Commission of the People’s
Republic of China and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange
of the People’s Republic of China. Once all regulatory and court
approvals are obtained, we will be able to complete the
Arrangement."
Yintai has obtained the approval of the Ministry
of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China.
The Company has a final order hearing scheduled
for May 2, 2024 before the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The
Arrangement remains on track to close on or about the end of H1

Arrangement, readers should review the Circular.
About Osino Resources Corp.
Osino is a Canadian gold exploration and
development company focused on the fast-tracked development of our
wholly owned, Twin Hills Gold Project in central Namibia. Since its
grassroots discovery by Osino in August 2019, Osino has completed
more than 250,000m of drilling and has completed a suite of
specialist technical studies culminating in the recently published
Twin Hills Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") dated effective
June 12, 2023. The DFS describes a technically simple and
economically robust open-pit gold operation with a 13-year mine
life and average annual gold production of over 162,000oz per
annum.
Osino has a commanding ground position of over
8,000km2 located within Namibia's prospective Damara sedimentary
mineral belt, mostly in proximity to and along strike of the
producing Navachab and Otjikoto Gold Mines. Osino is actively
exploring a range of gold prospects and targets along the belt by
utilizing a portfolio approach geared towards discovery, targeting
gold mineralization that fits the broad orogenic gold model.
Our projects are favourably located in central
and northern Namibia and are within easy reach from Namibia's
capital city, Windhoek. By virtue of its location, the Twin Hills
project benefits significantly from Namibia's well-established
infrastructure with paved highways, railway, power and water in
close proximity. Namibia is mining-friendly and lauded as one of
the continent's most politically and socially stable
jurisdictions.
