/CNW Telbec/ -

Azimut Exploration Inc.

("Azimut" or the

"Company") (TSXV: AZM) is pleased to report a

high-grade gold-silver-tellurium drill intercept

in

hole ELM21-088 within a

2-kilometre-long target zone

located south of the Patwon Gold Zone on

the Company's

100% owned Elmer Property

(the "Property") in the

James Bay

region of

Quebec

.

The target zone is remarkable for its exciting association of high-grade gold, silver and tellurium.

Tellurium is considered by the Canadian and

Quebec

governments as a critical commodity, essential

to the country's economic security and required for the transition to a low-carbon economy. The

target zone is subparallel to the shear hosting the Patwon Zone, about 200 metres to the south.

Results are still pending for three other holes drilled near hole 088. Detailed follow-up drilling in the

target zone is part of the program currently underway on the Property.

The 20,000-metre drilling program in progress aims to expand the Patwon Zone and prepare for a

maiden NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate (

see press releases of

October 18

and

November 4,

2021

). This program will also continue testing highly prospective targets nearby. Azimut believes that

other significant mineralized zones will likely be found along strike from or subparallel to the Patwon

Zone.

HIGHLIGHTS

(

see Figures 1 to 3

)

Hole ELM21-088:

122 g/t Au, 160 g/t Ag and 307 g/t Te

over 0.5 metre

(from

119.1 m

to

119.6 m

) at a vertical depth of 84.2 metres from the surface.

This mineralized intercept is:

Related to centimetric quartz veinlets with visible gold, pyrite and tourmaline.

Located almost at the end of the hole (depth of

123 m

), indicating the possibility of a much

wider zone further south.

Hosted in a sheared gabbro about

200 metres south

of the shear that hosts the Patwon

Gold Zone.

The Gabbro Prospect (up to

77.8 g/t Au

,

167 g/t Ag and 124 g/t Te

from grab samples),

located 1.2 kilometres to the west along the same shear corridor, underscores the exciting

potential for strike continuity with the high-grade intercept in hole 088.

N

ote that grab samples

are selective by nature and unlikely to represent average grades

.

The target zone is already entirely covered by quality data, including high-resolution magnetic,

induced polarization and till survey data which will be used to optimize follow-up by core drilling.

In addition, several poorly outcropping parts of the target zone will be subject to systematic

reverse circulation drilling this winter to sample the bedrock surface. The drilling program will

use 300-metre-spaced drilling fences with 20-metre-spaced holes along the fences.

The Elmer Property comprises 515 claims covering 271.3 km

2

over a 35-kilometre strike length. The

Property is 285 kilometres north of the town of

Matagami

, 60 kilometres east of the village of

Eastmain

, and 5 kilometres west of the paved Billy Diamond Road, a major all-season highway. The

region benefits from quality infrastructure, including significant road access, a hydroelectric power

grid and airports.

Drilling Contract and Analytical Protocols

The drilling contract was awarded to RJLL Drilling Inc. of

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec

. The core

diameter is NQ, and the core samples were sent to AGAT Laboratories of

Mississauga, Ontario

and ALS Canada Ltd. in

Val d'Or

, Québec. Gold is analyzed by fire assay, with atomic absorption

and gravimetric finish for grades above 3.0 g/t Au. Samples are also analyzed for a 48-element suite

using ICP. Azimut applies industry-standard QA/QC procedures to its programs. Certified reference

materials, blanks and field duplicates are included in all drill core batches sent for analysis.

Manager and

release.

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements, which reflect the Company's current

expectations regarding future events related to the drilling results at the Elmer Property. To the

extent that any statements in this press release contain information that is not historical, the

statements are essentially forward-looking and are often identified by words such as "consider",

"anticipate", "expect", "estimate", "intend", "project", "plan", "potential", "suggest" and "believe". 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
