(\"Azimut\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV: AZM) is pleased to report excellent initial results from the 2019 exploration program on the Company's wholly-owned Elmer Property (the \"Property\"). Channel sampling on the Patwon Prospect confirms the strong exploration potential for a high-grade gold system on the Property. \nThe remainder of the 2019 work program will be adjusted according to the pending results of this first phase.\nHIGHLIGHTS (see Figures 1 to 4)\n292 channel samples were collected for a total length of 278.65 metres, as well as 172 rock grab samples. Most analytical results are pending. Channels in the immediate vicinity of a high-grade grab sample collected in late 2018 (54.6 g/t Au; see press release of November 20, 2018) yielded the following results: 22.1 g/t Au over 2.95 m (channel CH-09; open) 36.3 g/t Au over 2.0 m (channel CH-10; open) 9.52 g/t Au over 7.1 m (channel CH-11; open)Mineralized facies correspond to a centimetric to decametric network of quartz veins with strongly chloritized and carbonatized wall rocks containing 1% to 10% disseminated pyrite. A mafic intrusion cut by quartz feldspar porphyry dykes constitute the main host rocks. The outcropping Patwon Prospect, currently exposed over an area of about 150 metres by 100 metres, is open in most directions. A preliminary field assessment and initial analytical results point toward a sizeable target. The orientation of the mineralized envelope and true mineralized widths have not yet been determined. The Patwon Prospect is part of a newly interpreted 7-kilometre-long high-grade trend that includes four other prospects: East Zone, Patwon East, Gold Zone and Gabbro Zone (see Figure 2).The Elmer Propert...
