[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AZINCOURT ENERGY CORP. (“Azincourt” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: AAZ, OTCQB: AZURF), is pleased to update shareholders and others on the preparation of the winter road for the upcoming 2022 exploration program at the East Preston uranium project, located in the western Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Canada. Accurate Industries is preparing and will maintain the winter access road under the supervision of TerraLogic Exploration Inc. The 73 km road allows access from Provincial Highway 955 along a portion of the Cree Lake Road then to the planned Snoop Lake camp site on the East Preston Project. The road has been successfully opened beyond the Mirror River, approximately 55 km along the route to camp. Opening of the 73 km winter road to access the property and campsite is nearing completion, with major camp equipment and materials expected on site by month’s end. Camp construction is expected to begin and complete early next week. Discovery Mining Services will build and support the camp operations. Drilling is anticipated to commence immediately thereafter, utilizing two diamond drill rigs provided by Full Force Drilling Ltd., throughout the months of January and February and into early March. “We are very happy to see the excellent progress being made on the road access,” said VP, Exploration, Trevor Perkins. “The cold weather and advanced road preparation are allowing a good base to be packed and frozen which provides excellent access to the camp for the duration of the winter program. A good base will also allow the road to better withstand warming in the spring before beginning to break up,” continued Mr. Perkins.

The program will continue to evaluate the G zone to the south and then move to assess the K-Q trend. The program may be modified as results warrant...
