Azimut Exploration Inc. and KGHM International Ltd Launch Exploration Campaign at Kukamas
Azimut Exploration Inc. announced that a comprehensive partner-funded exploration program is commencing on the Kukamas Property (the "Property"), located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay ("James Bay") region of Quebec, Canada. The Property is subject to an option agreement with KGHM International Ltd. ("KGHM"). Azimut is the operator. This press release also reports new assay results for the complete suite of Platinum Group Elements ("PGE"), further confirming the high-grade PGE content of the Perseus Nickel Zone discovered in 2024. The $3.6 million exploration program will comprise two (2) phases of work: Phase 1: Detailed mapping, prospecting and advanced reprocessing of high-resolution electromagnetic and magnetic heliborne data; and Phase 2: 4,000 metres of diamond drilling planned for late summer, based on results of phase 1. The primary objective is to follow up on the significant progress in 2024 with the discovery of the Perseus Zone, confirmed by five (5) drill holes, all of which yielded excellent results. Thirty (30) selected high-gradenickel samples from the Perseus Zone, all with grades higher than 3.0% Ni, ranging from 3.46% to 19.60% Ni, were analysed for the complete suite of PGE, including platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), and the rarest PGEs, rhodium (Rh), iridium (Ir), ruthenium (Ru) and osmium (Os). These nickel samples are commonly associated with high palladium grades ranging from 1.16 g/t Pd to 12.15 g/t Pd, and high platinum grades up to 3.65 g/tPt. These samples also returned significant grades for the rarest P GEs, with up to 1.16 g/t Rh, 0.43 g/t Ir, 2.75g/t Ru and 0.45 g/t Os, adding significant potential value to the Perseus Zone. Azimut is also advancing the Galinee lithium discovery with its joint venture partner SOQUEM Inc. In addition, significant exploration progress was made in 2024 on the Wabamisk (antimony-gold, lithium), Kukamas (nickel-copper-PGE) and Pilipas (lithium) projects. Azimut uses a pioneering approach to big data analytics (the proprietary AZtechMine™? expert system) enhanced by extensive exploration know-how. The Company's competitive edge is based on systematic regional-scale data analysis. Azimut maintains rigorous financial discipline and a strong balance sheet.
