LONGUEUIL, Quebec, Aug. 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Azimut Exploration Inc. (“Azimut” or the “Company”) (TSXV: AZM) (OTCQX: AZMTF) is pleased to provide an update on its exploration programs in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec. The access and travel restrictions imposed by the Government of Quebec in response to the unprecedented forest fire situation persisting since early June remain in place across a significant part of the region.

The field programs on the Pikwa, Galinée and Pontois lithium projects have resumed now that the restrictions have been lifted for air access in these areas. Azimut is ready to expand its activities on other key projects as the situation improves. Over the summer and fall seasons, Azimut intends to complete 10 (ten) programs through its agreements with leading companies or as self-funded programs (see Figure 1):

Pikwa Property (Lithium), SOQUEM JV, 509 claims, 260.9 km2
The prospecting phase initiated in May and operated by SOQUEM has resumed. This lithium-focused program may be followed by core drilling, contingent on the success of the prospecting phase. Pikwa is a 28-km-long project immediately along strike of the Corvette property (Patriot Battery Metals), where an initial inferred resource estimate of 109.2 Mt at 1.42% Li2O was recently announced for the major CV5 discovery (see press release of May 17, 2023).

Galinée Property (Lithium), SOQUEM JV, 649 claims, 335 km2
This 33-kilometre-long project is a key priority for the Company. The planned 1,600-metre initial drilling program will test an area adjacent to Winsome Resources lithium discovery on the Adina project (see press release of June 13, 2023). The Galinée drilling phase should begin later this summer, immediately following the intensive prospecting phase already underway. Azimut’s field team is currently assessing ten (10) excellent multi-kilometre target areas on the project.

Corvet Property (Lithium), Rio Tinto Option, 877 claims, 451.2 km2
A comprehensive prospecting phase is scheduled to assess high-potential targets outlined by strong lithium-cesium-rubidium-gallium-tin anomalies in lake sediments (see press release of July 10, 2023). Additional work has been planned and will be further detailed once the program begins.

Kaanaayaa Property (Lithium), Rio Tinto Option, 421 claims, 216.4 km2
A prospecting phase is scheduled to assess high-potential targets outlined by strong lithium-cesium-rubidium-gallium anomalies in lake sediments (see press release of July 10, 2023). Additional work has been planned and will be further detailed once the program begins.

James Bay Lithium Property (Lithium), 2,954 claims, 1,539.2 km2
Azimut’s comprehensive analysis of regional data identified numerous excellent lithium targets, which the Company acquired to form the JBL Property, currently comprising 13 claim blocks (see press release of January 23, 2023). The Company has ranked the 52 x 28 km JBL1 block as one of the most prospective areas for lithium in the James Bay region, and it has been prioritized for a self-funded prospecting program. The block will be explored from the Elmer Camp once the access restrictions are lifted in this area.

Elmer Property (Gold), 515 claims, 271.3 km2
Azimut has reported all the results from its drilling programs (242 holes for 76,162.7 m) on the Patwon Gold Zone and exploration targets elsewhere on the property (see press release of June 29, 2023). The maiden resource estimate is well underway. One remaining step is to survey the drill hole collars on the Patwon Zone to refine the resource estimate. The Company postponed the surveying task when the Elmer Camp had to be evacuated in early June due to the forest fire situation. The survey will be conducted once the project can be accessed.

Kukamas Property (Copper – Gold), KGHM Option, 537 claims, 272.5 km2
A 3,200-line-kilometre helicopter-borne high-resolution magnetic and VTEMTMPlus electromagnetic survey was completed over the entire project earlier this year (see press release of February 8, 2023). The survey outlined highly prospective targets that will be the subject of a partner-funded ground follow-up program.

Wapatik Property (Nickel – Copper, Lithium), Mont Royal Option, 220 claims, 115 km2
Exploration work has led to the discovery of significant nickel-copper mineralization related to an ultramafic intrusion on the property (see press release of April 24, 2023). Follow-up drilling is planned for later this year. In addition, outcropping lithium targets have been also identified and will be subject to an initial field evaluation. The project is about 20 kilometres north of Allkem’s lithium deposit (mineral resource of 110.2 Mt at 1.30% Li2O, published in August 2023).

Dalmas Property (Lithium), SOQUEM JV, 120 claims, 61.3 km2
A prospecting phase will be initiated to further assess previous encouraging rock sampling results indicating the property’s lithium and tantalum potential.

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements, which reflect the Company’s current expectations regarding future events. To the extent that any statements in this press release contain information that is not historical, the statements are essentially forward-looking and are often identified by words such as “anticipate”, “expect”, “estimate”, “intend”, “project”, “plan” and “believe”. The forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. There are many factors that could cause such differences, particularly volatility and sensitivity to market metal prices, impact of change in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, imprecision in reserve estimates, environmental risks including increased regulatory burdens, unexpected geological conditions, adverse mining conditions, changes in government regulations and policies, including laws and policies, and failure to obtain necessary permits and approvals from government authorities, as well as other development and operating risks. Although the Company believes that the assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on these statements, which only apply as of the date of this document. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, other than as required to do so by applicable securities laws.
