This award is granted to highlight the importance of a new discovery that produced a significant ripple effect on exploration activities with regards to both the property itself and the surrounding area.
The Azimut team is very honoured by this recognition from its peers. Advancing the Elmer discovery to reveal its full potential is an exciting enterprise for which the Azimut team is entirely committed despite the market turbulence.
The discovery of the Patwon Gold Zone was announced on January 14, 2020, following a maiden drilling program. At current time, Patwon has been delineated with 115 holes totalling 48,381 metres. The zone displays remarkable continuity from surface to a minimum vertical depth of 800 metres where it remains open at depth and probably along strike. The zone has been outlined over a strike length of nearly 600 metres, with an average estimated true width of 35 metres. Ongoing drilling aims to expand and optimize the shape of a potential open pit resource, as well as test several high-quality targets in the vicinity (see press releases of May 30, 2022 and September 13, 2022).
The best ten (10) holes previously released for the Patwon Zone are:
| from 254.00 m to 272.00 m | Estimated true width: | 17.12 m | |
| from 33.50 m to 136.00 m | 62.58 m | ||
| from 34.27 m to 142.50 m | 63.75 m | ||
| from 151.30 m to 241.50 m | 82.71 m | ||
| from 287.90 m to 328.50 m | 38.24 m | ||
| from 265.45 m to 310.50 m | 42.62 m | ||
| from 122.20 m to 194.35 m | 58.61 m | ||
| from 329.40 m to 363.00 m | 35.00 m | ||
| from 266.00 m to 305.50 m | 37.91 m | ||
| from 30.00 m to 74.10 m | 34.07 m |

The forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. There are many factors that could cause such differences, particularly volatility and sensitivity to market metal prices, impact of change in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, imprecision in reserve estimates, recoveries of gold and other metals, environmental risks including increased regulatory burdens, unexpected geological conditions, adverse mining conditions, community and non-governmental organization actions, changes in government regulations and policies, including laws and policies, global outbreaks of infectious diseases, including COVID-19, and failure to obtain necessary permits and approvals from government authorities, as well as other development and operating risks. Although the Company believes that the assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on these statements, which only apply as of the date of this document.
