We present the first results from largest deep extragalactic millimetre-wavelength survey undertaken to date. These are derived maps covering over 0.7 deg^2, made at 1.1mm, using AzTEC continuum camera mounted on James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. The were in two fields originally targeted 0.85mm with SCUBA SHADES project, namely Lockman Hole East (mapped a depth of 0.9-1.3 mJy rms) and Subaru XMM Deep Field (1.0-1.7 rms). wealth existing forthcoming multi-frequency data these will allow bright...
