Sun Summit Minerals plans exploration for Theory

Executive Summary

• Sun Summit Minerals Corp. announced its upcoming exploration program for the Theory project in BC’s Toodoggone district, targeting identification of future drill targets.
• The work will be conducted under an option agreement with Eagle Plains Resources Ltd., with TerraLogic managing field activities and Eagle Plains acting as operator.
• Exploration activities are scheduled to commence in late August 2025 and run through September 2025, encompassing data compilation, remote‑sensing acquisition, prospecting, mapping and geochemical sampling.

Key Details

• Option Agreement: Sun Summit holds an option to earn up to a 100% interest in 10,000 ha of mineral claims in the Toodoggone district (see prior release dated March 17 2025).
• Project Scope: Theory project consists of 23 mineral claims covering 9,676 ha, located ~10 km NW of Sun Summit’s JD project and adjacent to Thesis Gold’s Ranch project.
• Exploration Goals: Identify future drill targets by:
• Compiling historical results and rectifying surface sampling/mapping data (1986‑1989).
• Acquiring district‑scale VNIR and SWIR remote‑sensing data to map alteration zones diagnostic of epithermal and porphyry systems.
• Conducting field work – prospecting, detailed geological mapping, rock/soil/silt geochemical sampling.
• Management: Program managed by TerraLogic under supervision of Eagle Plains Resources Ltd., the operator.
• Timeline: Field activities to begin in late August 2025 and continue into September 2025.
• Geology Overview: Dominated by lower Jurassic Hazelton Group volcanics (Toodoggone Formation) overlying late Triassic Takla Group; intersected by Triassic‑Jurassic intrusions; the Jurassic‑Triassic unconformity (“red line”) is a known mineralization corridor in the region.
• Infrastructure: Project is helicopter accessible; recent road upgrades (2023) provide road access within 8 km of the southern boundary.
• Community Engagement: Ongoing discussions with local First Nations regarding interests, contract/work opportunities and community initiatives.
