Azimut Exploration Embarks on New Gold Drilling Journey
Azimut Initiates Gold Drilling Program at Wabamisk
Azimut Exploration Inc. is thrilled to announce its maiden drilling program on the Rosa Zone, which promises high-grade gold potential. This significant undertaking involves a 1,500-metre core drilling project, following a successful discovery made earlier this summer.
The Rosa Zone Discovery
The Rosa Zone, part of Azimut’s wholly owned Wabamisk Property in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Québec, showcases a continuous east-west chargeability anomaly spanning over 1.4 kilometres. This phenomenon closely correlates with a 300-metre stretch of high-grade gold-bearing grab samples collected from surface outcrops.
Drilling Program Details
Excited by the findings from initial prospecting and an induced polarization (IP) survey totaling 11 line-kilometres, Azimut has laid the groundwork for this drilling program. A total of 217 rock samples were collected for comprehensive analysis, leading to the identification of a highly prospective corridor tailored for exploration.
Mineralization Insights
Significant findings indicate the presence of sheared quartz vein systems with disseminated sulphides, along with visible and coarse gold at numerous locations. Over 36 grab and channel samples have shown impressive grades, with 15 samples exceeding 5.0 g/t Au, up to a remarkable 42.0 g/t Au. These findings not only confirm the mineralization potential but also position the Rosa Zone as a key target for further drilling.
Geological Significance
The geology surrounding the Wabamisk Property is intriguing. It lies within the Archean greenstone belt of the La Grande Subprovince, situated near the tectono-metamorphic boundary with the metasedimentary Opinaca Subprovince. This geological context further enhances the prospectivity of the area.
Preparation and Adjacent Opportunities
In preparation for the drilling program, Azimut has engaged in various detailed exploratory activities, including soil geochemistry and ground geophysics. The adjacent Wabamisk East Property has also drawn interest, being optioned to Rio Tinto for its lithium potential. This collaboration enhances the strategic value of Azimut's claims.
Future Prospects for Azimut Exploration
Azimut continues to lead with several ongoing high-potential projects, including the Elmer property where a notable gold deposit is progressing. Furthermore, the ongoing use of advanced data analytics through the proprietary AZtechMine™ expert system positions Azimut at the forefront of mineral exploration in Canada.
Investor Confidence
With significant investments from strategic partners such as Agnico Eagle Mines Limited and Centerra Gold Inc., Azimut's initiatives are supported by a robust financial structure. These partnerships not only enhance confidence in Azimut’s explorative pursuits but also ensure a promising outlook for the future.
