07:57 AM EDT, 08/21/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Azimut Exploration ( AZMTF ) said Thursday that a diamond drilling program of at least 4,000 meters has kicked off at the Kukamas property in Quebec.

Drilling aims to further define the Perseus nickel-platinum group elements discovery and test additional targets at Kukamas, Azimut said.

The program includes 2,200 meters of drilling focused on expanding the Perseus zone at depth and along strike, and 1,200 meters of drilling to test new targets principally north of Perseus along a 1.6-kilometer favourable geological and geophysical trend.

Kukamas is subject to an option agreement between Azimut and KGHM International, with Azimut acting as the operator.
