MAIDEN DRILL PROGRAM COMMENCES AT WAPATIK

PROJECT

Mont Royal Resources Limited ("Mont Royal", the "Company") (ASX: MRZ) is pleased to provide the below announcement released by Azimut Exploration Inc. (TSXV: AZM) (OTCQX: AZMTF) ("Azimut") on Tuesday 24 May 2022.

Mont Royal is excited to update shareholders that a diamond drilling rig arrived at the Wapatik property on the 17th of May in preparation to commence the 1,000 metre drill program. The planned drill program will carry out a minimum of three planned holes to test the three best conductors located across the ultramafic Intrusive (1km by 400 metres) zones; potentially related to intrusion- hosted nickel-copper mineralization. Downhole electromagnetics will be performed on each hole.

The program will be operated by Azimut and the drilling carried out by Chibougamau Drilling Ltd of Chibougamau (Quebec). Mont Royal looks forward to updating shareholders following completion of drill program.

This announcement is released by Mont Royal in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 3.1.

Mont Royal's Executive Director, Peter Ruse said: "The commencement of the Wapatik drilling program marks an exciting milestone for the company. The targets have been systematically worked up over the past 18 months of the JV and have the potential to unlock significant value for shareholders. Mont Royal will communicate progress from the drill program in coordination with Azimut as operator."

onlyLongueuil, Quebec - Azimut Exploration Inc. ("Azimut" or the "Company") (TSXV: AZM) (OTCQX: AZMTF) is pleased to announce that it has begun a maiden diamond drilling program on the Wapatik Property ("the Property"). At least three holes (~1,000 metres) will test highly conductive zones potentially related to intrusion-hostednickel-copper

usemineralization.

The Property, located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, is under option to Mont Royal Resources Limited ("Mont Royal") (ASX: MRZ). The partner-funded 2022 exploration budget amounts to $800,000, and Azimut is the operator.

	The maiden diamond drilling program focuses on the three best conductors identified by an electromagnetic

(SQUID) ground survey (see press release of April 19, 2022).

• The positions of the conductors coincide with favourable geometries for sulphide accumulation within a mineralized ultramafic intrusion, as interpreted by a 3D magnetic inversion (see Figure 3).

• Chibougamau Drilling Ltd of Chibougamau (Quebec) will carry out the drilling operations. One drill rig was mobilized onto the Property on May 17. The core diameter is BTW.

• Electromagnetic pulse surveys will be performed in each hole to maximize the search radius and provide information about the extension of any encountered conductor. TMC Geophysics of Val d'Or (Quebec) will carry

One drill hole will target the largest conductor (plate #3 in Figure 3), defined by a 220-metre by 160-metre plate model at an approximate vertical depth of 300 metres at the basal contact, where it displays basin-shaped geometry. Two other holes will target moderate-sized conductors in the eastern part of the ultramafic intrusion. Plate #2 has a modelled size of 38-metre by 245-metre and is located within a magnetic lobe at a vertical depth of 100 metres. Plate #1 has a modelled size of 60 metres by 165 metres and is located near the intrusion's contact at a vertical depth of 80 metres, close to
