Sun Summit Minerals Corp. announced the mobilization of its field crew to the JD Project in preparation for the Company's inaugural drill campaign. The JD Project, located in the prolific Toodoggone gold-copper mining district in north-central British Columbia, spans 15,000 hectares and hosts numerous under-explored epithermal-related gold-silver and porphyry-related copper-gold targets.

Highlights: Inaugural drill campaign: Drilling is expected to commence in mid-July with a planned 3,000 metre program, targeting the near-surface, epithermal-related gold-silver mineralization within the Creek to Finn Corridor. Field crews mobilized to site: Field personnel have been deployed to open camp and commence construction of drill platforms in preparation for drilling. Comprehensive exploration program: The field program includes a 20-line kilometre Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey, up to 2,000 soil samples across select targets, detailed structural and geological mapping, and a property-wide LiDAR survey.

Strategic collaboration: Exploration activities will be supported by APEX Geoscience as the geological contractor and field manager, leveraging their extensive experience in the Toodoggone district. Established infrastructure: The exploration crew will operate from Thesis Gold's established exploration camp on their adjacent Lawyers Property, facilitating an early and efficient start-up. Field Program Details: The summer drill program aims to build on the significant high-grade mineralization intercepted in historical drilling, in particular at the Creek Zone, where there is untested potential for sulphide-rich, structurally controlled, high grade gold intercepts.

Limited drilling in 1997 returned values such as 22.0 metres of 11.7 g/t Au including 4.0 metres of 61.2 g/t Au from drill hole CZ97-008. The program will also explore for additional mineralization across the property, including the 4.5-kilometre Finn to Creek corridor where there remains strong discovery potential at multiple epithermal-related gold and silver mineralized targets, including the Wolf, Schmitt, and Ag Carbonate zones. The 2024 exploration program at the JD Project includes: Diamond Drilling: Approximately 3,000 metres HQ oriented core drilling will be focused initially on the Creek Zone, known for its near-surface epithermal related gold-silver mineralization through historic drilling.

IP Geophysical Survey: A 20-line kilometre IP survey designed to infill historical data and cover new targets, aiding in the interpretation of both previous ground and airborne anomalies and to enhance geological understanding and target delineation. Soil Geochemical Survey: Up to 2,000 soil samples will be collected across select target areas to infill historical data gaps and provide detailed geochemical signatures, aiding in the identification and prioritization of gold and silver targets. Detailed Structural and Geological Mapping: Mapping will be focused on the Creek to Finn Corridor to identify significant structural features, particularly at the Creek Zone where the orientation of gold-bearing structures is not well understood.

LiDAR and Aerial Photography: Property-wide LiDAR data and aerial photography will be collected with sub-metre accuracy, providing detailed terrain models essential for accurate geological interpretation and project planning.
