This comprehensive program will be followed by core drilling, contingent on the success of the prospecting phase. It is the first of several lithium-focused exploration programs that will be undertaken by Azimut this summer.\n \n \n The 28-kilometre-long Pikwa Property benefits from an outstanding location between the\n \n Corvette\n \n project (\n \n Patriot Battery Metals)\n \n to the east, which hosts the major CV5 lithium discovery, and the\n \n Cancet\n \n project (\n \n Winsome Resources\n \n ) to the west, which hosts the Cancet lithium prospect (\n \n see Figures 2 and 3\n \n ). Pikwa is a joint venture project between Azimut and SOQUEM.\n \n \n \n HIGHLIGHTS\n \n (\n \n see Figures 1 to 12\n \n )\n \n \n \n Azimut and SOQUEM have outlined\n \n eight (8) extensive lithium\n \n \n target areas\n \n on Pikwa through a systematic review of the data acquired during their previous exploration programs on the Property. Although these programs did not focus on lithium, the data generated provides excellent support for lithium targeting.\n \n \n \n \n The main lithium target areas at Pikwa are directly on strike of an east-west-trending\n \n prominent magnetic trend\n \n hosting the major lithium prospects on the Corvette and Cancet projects.\n \n \n \n \n Additional targeting criteria comprise:\n \n a)\n \n advanc...
