Sun Summit Minerals Corp. announced plans for an initial Mineral Resource Estimate to be completed covering the Buck Main zone of the Buck Project, located in central British Columbia. Initial Mineral Resource Estimate: An initial Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) is being planned for Buck Main, with expected completion in First Quarter 2024.

Since 2020, 98 drill holes totalling over 34,500 metres have been completed within the Buck Main zone, with the potential to incorporate additional historic drilling. Assay Results Pending: Remaining results from the most recent drill program will be reported once they are received and analyzed, and will be included in the planned MRE. Unconstrained Mineralized Footprint: The known mineralized footprint demonstrates strong near-surface grade continuity and currently measures over 1.1 kilometres in strike length and 700 metres in width.

Latest drill testing at Buck Main continues to intersect mineralization outside the known footprint, supporting the zone's further potential for expansion subsequent to completion of the MRE. Ongoing Discovery Potential: In tandem with completion of the MRE, drilling and exploration will continue throughout the Buck Project area with multiple additional zones and target areas warranting exploration and drill testing. Successful delineation of additional mineralization outside of the MRE could trigger a future update or expansion to the initial MRE.

Buck Main Details: Since 2020, Sun Summit has drilled 34,500 metres in 98 diamond drill holes at Buck Main testing the limits of the mineralized system. In addition, many historic drill holes have been completed on the project and could be included in the upcoming resource calculation. The known mineralized footprint currently measures over 1.1 kilometres in strike length, 700 metres in width, with mineralization open in all directions.

Recent drill results highlight the significant expansion potential along the northern and western extent of known mineralization as well as strong depth potential where previous drilling is sparse. The planned initial MRE on Buck Main will be calculated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Definition Standards incorporated by reference in National Instrument 43-101. Completion of the initial MRE is expected by first quarter 2024.
