[{"type":"text","content":"Sun Summit Drills 57.95 metres of 2.69 g/t Gold Including 19.50 metres of 7.31 g/t Gold at the Creek Zone, JD Project, Toodoggone District, B.C.Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 16, 2024) - Sun Summit Minerals Corp. (TSXV: SMN) (OTCQB: SMREF) announces drill results from its fifth hole drilled during its inaugural exploration program at the JD Project in the Toodoggone District, north-central B.C.Hole CZ-24-005 returned one of the longest cumulative intervals of gold mineralization drilled to date at the Creek Zone, as well as intersected high-grade gold-bearing veins: 362 g/t gold over 0.25 metres, 53.60 g/t gold over 0.58 metres, and 21.60 g/t gold over 0.50 metres. This hole represents a 100 metre step out to the east from hole CZ-24-004, and continues to demonstrate that high-grade mineralization at the Creek Zone is open in most directions. Highlights:Hole CZ-24-005 intersected multiple broad zones of continuous gold mineralization punctuated with high-grade veins: 64.16 metres of 0.69 g/t gold from 46.84 metres including 10.16 metres of 1.93 g/t gold, and;57.95 metres of 2.69 g/t gold from 145.05 metres including 19.50 metres of 7.31 g/t gold, and including discrete veins that returned:362 g/t gold over 0.25 metres53.60 g/t gold over 0.58 metres21.60 g/t gold over 0.50 metresHigh-grade gold associated with strong silver and base metal mineralization: The 362 g/t gold interval also contains associated strong silver (121 g/t), copper (2.23%) and zinc (18.15%) mineralization which further supports the high-prospectivity for high-grade polymetallic mineralization at the Creek zone.Assay results build on previously announced drill results from the Creek Zone: These results further demonstrate the presence of significant high-grade gold mineralization as well as near-surface disseminated mineralization previously unrecognized due to selective sampling in historical drill programs.High-grade, vein-hosted mineralization remains open: Results from CZ-24-005 demonstrate that high-grade mineralization is open in most directions.Additional assay results pending: Assays from the remaining seven drill holes (1,405 metres) from other target areas are pending.Final results pending from numerous project-wide surveys: Results from soil and rock geochemical surveys together with final data products from an Induced P...
