(TSXV:AZT) (OTCQB:AZZTF) announces that recent drilling has intersected gold mineralization in a 350 metre step-out north of the California zone at the southern edge of the California North Target, returning 24.3 metres grading 0.315 gpT Au and 6.1 metres grading 1.649 gpT Au with quartz feldspar porphyry intrusion.At the Jasper target, widespread visible copper oxides and secondary sulfides were observed with a quartz feldspar porphyry intrusion some 600 m west of the California Zone, including gold mineralization grading 0.332 gpT Au over 9.1 metres.Additional drill results at the California target continue to return broad gold mineralization from the 2022 RC drill program on the Cervantes property located in Sonora, Mexico. Results for hole CAL22-015 returned 68.4 metres grading 0.421 gpT Au and CAL22-016 returned 56.2 metres grading 0.475 gpT Au. The first multi-element ICP results show good relationships between Au, Cu, Bi, Ag and As, with prospective grades and widths for Cu and Ag for a potential porphyry deposit model.California and Jasper Zone Drill Highlights9.1 metres of 0.332 gpT Au and 150 metres with visible Copper oxides and secondary sulfides in mineralized quartz feldspar porphyry intrusive, sediments and hydrothermal breccias in JAS22-001, as a 180 m step-out in the Jasper target to the southw...
