Exhibit 99.1
First Mining Identifies Multiple
High-Grade Gold Zones in Duparquet Exploration Drilling
- Drill hole DUP24-024 returns
multiple gold zones including 10.67 g/t Au over 5.3 m, 6.63 g/t Au over 9.0 m, 3.04 g/t Au over 33.5 m, and
5.97 g/t Au over 33.0 m
- Gold zones hosted in newly
identified mafic volcanic units not previously modelled at Duparquet
- Demonstrates significant exploration
growth potential at one of the largest gold deposits in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt
VANCOUVER, BC, June 18, 2024 /CNW/ - First
Mining Gold Corp. ("First Mining" or the "Company") (TSX: FF) (OTCQX: FFMGF) (FRANKFURT: FMG) is pleased
to announce new drilling results from the 2024 Phase 2B winter diamond drilling program at its Duparquet Gold Project ("Duparquet
Project" or the "Project") located in Quebec, Canada. This latest drilling targeted additional exploration
trends of the North Zone, assessing the potential for higher-grade areas with extensional continuity. Drill hole DUP24-024 returned multiple
intervals of significant higher-grade mineralization over considerable widths that are hosted proximal to and within a newly identified
mafic volcanic unit, including 10.67 g/t Au over 5.3 m, 6.63 g/t Au over 9 m, 3.04 g/t Au over 33.5 m, and 5.97 g/t Au over 33 m (including
9.63 g/t Au over 4.2 m and 14.43 g/t Au over 6 m). First Mining continues to explore mineralization trends of the Duparquet Project
for extensions and new discovery zones through its ongoing Phase 3 drill program which aims to continue drill testing at the North Zone,
Buzz Zone, Valentre Target and additional regional opportunities.
"The higher-grade zones at these exceptional
widths at Duparquet clearly demonstrate the ongoing resource growth potential in what is already one of the largest established resources
in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt," stated Dan Wilton, CEO of First Mining. "What I am most excited about is the fact that this
new host unit where identified has never been a focus of exploration at Duparquet, demonstrating the value of our exploration team's systematic,
data-driven approach to discovery which challenges the exploration biases of past operators. With our recent flow-through financing
completed, First Mining is well funded to continue delivering exceptional results at Duparquet."
The Phase 2B winter program concluded in April 2024
and comprised a seven-hole, 2,856 m drill program. The objective of this drilling phase within the overall program was to target further
exploration and resource growth opportunities, with a focus on grade optimization and depth extension targets. Highlights from the first
drill holes completed in Phase 2B included drill hole DUP24-018 which returned 3.11 g/t Au over 13.16 m, and hole DUP24-019 which returned
3.07 g/t Au over 10.32 m at the North Zone (See news release from May 21, 2024), validating the geoscience approach and supporting further
testing of the extensional opportunities of the North Zone.
Three more holes were drilled within the Phase 2B
winter program and these were strategic in targeting the North Zones' higher-grade trends along strike and down-plunge. These latest drill
results have further validated the upside potential for the Project within the North Zone, where multiple intersections of significant
gold mineralization were encountered which are consistent with higher-grade trends (Table 1).

Additional Details on North Zone Drilling
The North Zone drilling strategy is focused on targeting
strike extension opportunities, as well as drill testing multiple deeper, higher-grade trends that support down-plunge extension of the
mineralization. The North Zone mineralization is traditionally modelled largely within porphyritic syenite units with strong sericite
and silica alteration, with higher grades being returned in zones with increased alteration, 2-5% sulphides, quartz carbonate veining,
and brecciation associated with sheared contacts. The increased alteration and veining are spatially coincident with project modelling
associated with D2 high strain zones that are interpreted splay shear zones from the Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone.
First Mining's exploration targeting and vectoring
has been focused on higher-grade trends believed to be within zones that are associated with a change in specific lithology. Consequently,
there has been an increased focus in building up the target resolution through 3D modelling of the contact zones between the syenite-hosted
gold mineralization and mafic volcanic stratigraphy, as these are more favourable, proximal settings for higher-grade mineralization owing
to their geochemical and rheological attributes.
Since the Company started drilling at the Project
in 2023 it has had success in targeting these contact zones and this has become one of the more favourable targeting strategies for higher-grade
trends outside of the traditional Beattie syenite. A key factor contributing to these successes is the integration of multiple sources
of geoscience data into the 3D modelling and target definition process, including geochemistry, geophysics, oriented core and magnetic
susceptibility data.
Three additional drillholes were completed for a total
of 1,527.4 m, all targeting the modelled sheared contact of the syenite and the mafic volcanics at the northern contact zone of the main
resource ("North Zone Target").
Drill hole DUP24-022 (Figure 2) was drilled as a step-out
hole along strike of the main mineralized shear zone at Duparquet, within an area identified with significant extensional resource
growth potential. Historical drilling within the area largely occurred above the plunge of the main mineralization system, so this
new hole targeted an extensional opportunity within the target area. Hole DUP24-022, as an initial hole successfully returned a significant
assay intercept that correlated with the interpreted extension of the targeted main mineralized shear zone, with 2.47 g/t Au over
7.13 m from 598.45 m to 605.58 m. Mineralization within this interval is hosted within a strongly sheared and silica-altered basalt, with
quartz carbonate veining representing up to 10% of the core and up to 10% disseminated pyrite mineralization locally. The mafic volcanic
unit intercepted in DUP24-022 will be further refined in the upcoming geological model updates. As a successful step-out along strike
within this initial vectoring hole, First Mining realizes an important opportunity for additional step-outs that could have a significant
potential for resource growth. A series of drill holes are currently in the planning stage to further test the open mineralization
along strike and down-plunge during the Phase 3 program.
Figure 2: North Zone Target - DUP24-022 is a step-out
hole towards the east of the previously announced DUP24-018 and DUP24-019. Significant intercepts are highlighted downhole, with higher-grade
zones identified along the contact of the syenite and the sheared basalt unit. The mafic unit intercepted in DUP24-022 will be refined
in the upcoming geological model updates. This cross section is looking west (CNW Group/First Mining Gold Corp.)
Drill hole DUP23-023 (Figure 3) was drilled as a down-plunge,
extensional follow-up opportunity to the significant intervals returned from DUP24-019 (3.07g/t Au over 10.32 m from 87.94 m to 98.26
m, including 9.19 g/t Au over 0.85 m from 87.94 m to 98.26 m, and 3.19 g/t Au over 4.53 m from 102.30 to 106.83 m, as reported on May
21, 2024). These holes targeted higher-grade zones along the main mineralized shear zone at the northern contact of the syenite body,
with DUP24-023 further validating the continuation of the higher-grade mineralization at depth. Highlights from the main mineralized shear
zone in DUP24-023 include 2.38 g/t Au over 18.45 m (including 5.58 g/t Au over 4.1 m) from 131 m to 149.45 m, and 4.43 g/t Au over 2.78
m from 170.82 m to 173.6 m. These significant intercepts are hosted within a zone of strongly foliated basalt and syenite that is associated
with strong silica and sericite alteration, quartz carbonate veining including up to 10% in localized areas, and up to 10% disseminated
pyrite. First Mining is pleased with the successful down-plunge validation of the higher-grade zones as it continues to support follow-up
programs targeting the depth extension of these zones.

hole DUP24-023, highlighting the extension of the higher-grade zone below the previously announced DUP24-019 (CNW Group/First Mining Gold
Corp.)
An important highlight of the Phase 2B winter program
was drill hole DUP23-024 (Figure 5), which was targeting multiple zones and included stepping out to the east of DUP24-018 and drill testing
the extension of an interpreted shear-hosted zone within the syenite, as well as testing the continuity of the shear and higher-
grade mineralization zone at the contact zones of the syenite and mafic volcanic units.
Drill hole DUP24-024 returned multiple intercepts
of significant gold values, with the highlights from the main mineralized shear zone being 10.67 g/t Au over 5.3 m from 448.4 m to 453.7
m, hosted within a 5.3 m wide brecciated quartz-carbonate vein with up to 5% pyrite mineralization that is emplaced along a syenite-basalt
contact (Figure 5). A second zone of significant mineralization was intercepted within a strongly sheared and brecciated rhyolite unit
with up to 3% disseminated pyrite, which returned 6.63 g/t Au over 9.0 m from 476.0 m to 485.0 m. A third zone, and the second syenite-basalt
contact unit within this hole, was intercepted which returned 3.04 g/t Au over 33.5 m from 488.5 m to 522.0 m (including 4.42 g/t Au over
4.0 m and 14.78 g/t Au over 4.0 m), and for this zone strongly brecciated, silica-altered syenite and basalt units with up to 10% localized
area of quartz veining and up to 15% disseminated pyrite mineralization were intercepted (Figure 5). The fourth significant interval in
this hole was hosted within a localized sheared and brecciated silica-altered basalt unit, with up to 10% quartz vein flooding and
up to 3% disseminated pyrite mineralization, and this zone returned 5.97 g/t Au over 33.0 m from 534.0 m to 567.0 m (including 9.63 g/t
Au over 4.2 m, and 14.43 g/t Au over 6.0 m). A favourable setting is recognized with the newly identified mineralized basalt units
at this locality (Figure 6), and further refinement of the geological model, followed up by extensional drill testing will be a priority
in the upcoming Phase 3 program.

The North Zone target has returned significant upside
and value to the Duparquet Project and is a priority area for exploration optimization and potential extension of the current open pit
and underground resource. The recent drill results continue to support the area as a highly prospective target zone for the Project, with
potential to unlock meaningful upside along strike and at depth (Figure 7).

"Our geoscience teams have created exceptional
momentum and continue to deliver strong results with additional drilling", stated James Maxwell, Vice President of Exploration and
Project Operations. "Recognition of a new higher-grade host lithology within the latest result setting greatly advances our ability
to target this higher-grade trend and supports an opportunity for further characterization and discovery."
Duparquet 2024 Exploration Programs
Exploration activities will be advancing at the Duparquet
project through 2024 with continued focus on drilling, regional field work programs that commenced early this spring, and integrating
the data from recently acquired airborne geophysical magnetic and LiDAR surveys. A property-wide expanded 3D geological and target model
is also in development and the ongoing integration and leveraging of layered datasets supports the targeting based on an integrated geoscience
exploration strategy.

About the Duparquet Gold Project
The Duparquet Project is geologically situated in
the southern part of the Abitibi Greenstone Belt and is geographically located approximately 50 km north of the city of Rouyn-Noranda.
The Project benefits from easy access and proximity to an existing workforce and infrastructure, including road, rail and hydroelectric
grid power. The Duparquet Project currently hosts an NI 43-101 compliant gold resource of 3.44 million ounces in the Measured & Indicated
category grading 1.55 g/t Au, and an additional 2.64 million ounces in the Inferred category, grading 1.62 g/t Au. First Mining completed
a Preliminary Economic Assessment1 ("PEA") on the Project in 2023 (see news release dated September 7, 2023 and October
23, 2023).
The Duparquet Project totals approximately 5,800 hectares
focused along an area of 19 km of strike length along the prolific Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone, along with numerous mineralized splays
and influential secondary lineaments. The Duparquet Project includes the past-producing Beattie, Donchester and Duquesne mines as well
as the Central Duparquet, Dumico and Pitt Gold deposits.
