Azimut and KGHM Expand the High-Grade Nickel-PGE Perseus Zone, Kukamas Property, James Bay Region, Quebec

Core Viewpoint - Azimut Exploration Inc. has announced positive results from its 2025 diamond drilling program on the Kukamas Property, indicating significant nickel and platinum group element (PGE) mineralization, which enhances the property's exploration potential [2][3]. Drilling Program Results - The 2025 drilling program included 14 holes totaling 3,803.8 meters, aimed at expanding nickel-PGE sulphide mineralization in the Perseus Zone and testing new targets along a 1.6-kilometer komatiite trend [4]. - Notable drilling highlights include: - Hole KUK25-010: 1.41% Ni, 0.85 g/t PGE over 15.25 m [6] - Hole KUK25-012: 1.77% Ni, 1.04 g/t PGE over 7.5 m [6] - Hole KUK25-013: 4.27% Ni, 2.63 g/t PGE over 8.6 m [6] Property and Joint Venture Details - KGHM International Ltd has acquired a 50% interest in the Kukamas Property and has opted to enter a second phase to earn an additional 20% interest through further funding [3][18]. - The Kukamas Property spans 41 kilometers with a total area of 337.8 square kilometers, benefiting from significant infrastructure [12]. Geological Context - The Perseus Main Zone is characterized by high nickel content and is defined over a strike extent of 135 meters and a vertical depth of 100 meters [7]. - The geological context suggests substantial exploration potential for additional mineralized zones, with similarities to Kambalda-type deposits known for high-grade nickel [10][11]. Future Plans - A 2026 work program is being prepared, with details to be announced soon, indicating ongoing exploration efforts [3].
