About the Elmer Project
The gold discovery on the Elmer Project, wholly owned by the
Company, was announced in January
2020 following a maiden drilling program. Azimut is actively
advancing the project to the initial resource stage. The Patwon
Zone is currently defined over a strike length near 600 metres, a
minimum depth of 700 metres and an estimated average true width of
35 metres. The potential to discover additional zones in the
vicinity of Patwon is considered excellent. A diamond drilling
exploration program in 2022 will follow up on the 507-hole reverse
circulation drilling program completed earlier this year.
