LONGUEUIL, QC, Sept. 14 /CNW/ -- Symbol: AZM.TSX Venture LONGUEUIL,
QC, Sept. 14 /CNW Telbec/ - Azimut Exploration Inc. ("Azimut")
reports that Goldcorp Canada Ltd ("Goldcorp") completed an 8-hole
diamond drilling campaign totalling 2,008 metres on two (2) gold
targets on the Wabamisk property. A key result was the discovery of
a gold-antimony-arsenic mineralized zone associated with a diorite
intrusion and metasedimentary rocks. The best intercept returned
2.27 g/t Au over 4.3 m (core length) within a large envelope of 0.7
g/t Au, 0.39% Sb and 0.20% As over 19 m. Antimony (Sb) and arsenic
(As) are classic pathfinders for gold. The widths and extents of
the Sb-As anomaly identified during this program indicate the
possibility of significant gold mineralization in the vicinity,
ranking this target as a top exploration priority. Results from
this drilling phase include: -- 2.27 g/t Au over 4.3 m (from 34.5
to 38.8 m) within an envelope of 0.7 g/t Au, 0.39% Sb and 0.20% As
over 19 m (from 29.5 to 48.5 m) in hole W-10-01 -- 2.24 g/t Au over
1.0 m (from 100.5 to 101.5 m) within an envelope of 0.68% Sb and
0.44% As over 9 m (from 105.5 to 114.5 m) in hole W-10-03 -- 1.47
g/t Au over 1.0 m (from 47.0 to 48.0 m) within an envelope of 0.2
g/t Au, 0.34% Sb and 0.30% As over 11.15 m (from 44.85 to 56.00 m)
in hole W-10-04 -- 1.28 g/t Au over 3.4 m (from 197.7 to 201.1 m),
1.12 g/t Au over 4.45 m (from 211.05 to 215.50 m) within an
envelope of 0.5 g/t Au and 0.24% As over 17.8 m (from 197.7 to
215.5 m) in hole W-10-05 -- 0.217 g/t Au over 7.2 m (from 76.1 to
83.3 m) in hole W-10-07 Six holes totalling 1,504 m tested the GH
prospect. Four of these holes (W-10-01 to W-10-04) delineated a
600-metre-long altered and mineralized diorite porphyry, which
remains totally open along strike and at depth. Mineralization is
related to Sb and As sulphides as disseminations and veinlets
accompanied by sericitic and silica alteration. A second
mineralized trend, cut in hole W-10-05 located 300 m south of
the diorite, is entirely hosted in metasedimentary rocks with
arsenopyrite and pyrrhotite as disseminations and veinlets. The GH
prospect is located within a strong 3.5-km-long Sb and As soil
anomaly that correlates well with an IP geophysical anomaly (see
press release of March 17, 2010). Two holes (W-10-07 and W-10-08),
totalling 504 m, tested the Brenda prospect. A mineralized
intercept in hole W-10-07 corresponds to a foliated andesite and a
quartz vein with disseminated arsenopyrite. Rock samples were
assayed by ALS Chemex of Val d'Or, Quebec, using an ICP method.
Following this drilling phase, Goldcorp performed an additional
$370,000 prospecting and trenching program. The results will be
reported when they will become available. This press release was
