(\"Azimut\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV: AZM) is pleased to report additional channel sampling results from its Patwon Prospect located on the Company's wholly-owned Elmer Property (the \"Property\") in the James Bay region of Québec (see Figure 1). \nSeven (7) channels cut the main strike of the quartz veins perpendicularly and define a roughly 30-metre-wide gold-bearing envelope. The best composite grades are: \n9.56 g/t Au over 5.36 m (channels Elm-40, -44 and -44') 3.36 g/t Au over 10.32 m (channels Elm-33 and -33') 1.10 g/t Au over 18.08 m (channels Elm-42 and -43)These new results further confirm a significant gold-bearing system on the prospect at least 150 metres along strike by at least 30 metres across.\nThe current exploration work at Patwon consists of mechanized stripping to be followed by a maiden diamond drilling program.\nHIGHLIGHTS (see Figures 2 to 5)\nAdditional channel sampling has increased the sampling density on the Patwon Prospect. A total of 84 samples for 69.27 metres have been collected, bringing the total since June 2019 to 275 samples for 248.21 metres (see press release of September 19, 2019). Mineralized facies correspond to a centimetric to metric network of quartz veins with strongly chloritized and carbonatized wall rocks containing 1% to 10% disseminated pyrite. A mafic intrusion cut by felsic to intermediate dykes constitutes the main host rock. Four types of mineralized quartz veins have been identified: Shear veins subparallel to schistosity; Extensional veins, oriented NW-SE, oblique to the NE-SW schistosity; Quartz stockwork mainly associated with felsic to intermediate dykes; and Veins and/or mineralized wall r...
