Symbol: AZM.TSX Venture

LONGUEUIL, QC, June 29, 2020 /CNW Telbec/ - Azimut Exploration Inc. ("Azimut" or the "Company") (TSXV: AZM) is pleased to provide an update on the diamond drilling program on its wholly owned Elmer Property in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec (see Figures 1 and 2). A total of 6,399 metres (32 holes) has been drilled since late May 2020. Based on initial core examination, Azimut's management has decided to expand the ongoing program to 10,000 metres, from the 6,000 metres initially planned, to further assess the main target (ELM-1) and other previously identified targets (see press releases of January 14 and March 18, 2020). Assay results are pending.

Two rigs have drilled the following thus far:

Drill hole locations are shown on Figures 3 and 4, and the coordinates are provided in Table 1. Samples from eleven (11) of the holes have been sent to the ALS Minerals laboratory in Val-d'Or, Quebec.

Visual observations from several holes support the expanded drilling program:

Five main target areas (ELM-1 to ELM-5) are located within a highly prospective corridor 2.5 kilometres long by 1.0 kilometre wide, open at both ends. The target areas are mostly defined by induced polarization anomalies along several subparallel axes, for a cumulative length of at least 7 kilometres. As a first phase, the current program aims to assess the gold potential from surface to a vertical depth of 200 metres. To date, drilling has concentrated on ELM-1.

This press release was prepared by Dr. Jean-Marc Lulin, P.Geo., acting as Azimut's qualified person under National Instrument 43-101.
