On August 31, 2009, the Company filed a new NI 43-101 report by Robert Laakso, P.Eng, which included new resource estimates on the Atikwa Lake Project.The Atikwa Lake Project is a former 500 tpd producing gold and copper mine that has been on stand-by care and maintenance since 1973. Opawica is currently carrying out a Preliminary Scoping Study that initially will be limited to the existing historic Maybrun Mine footprint and infrastructure.The study will determine if preliminary economic considerations may be applied to at least 1,800,000 tonnes of higher grade open-pit resources that are within the larger overall Maybrun Main Indicated Resource. This preliminary study will use a production rate of up to 500 tpd for a minimum 10 year period.

Gold Summit is actively looking at existing small discoveries in addition to adding shareholder value through exploration, prior to pre-development. The company’s preferred targets are high grade gold/silver deposits that would eventually be mined by underground methods. To maximize chances of exploration success, acquisition of whole districts with multiple targets is preferred. Within those districts, high quality geological mapping, rock and soil sampling as well as evaluation of work by previous explorers define drilling targets. Careful selection of these for testing is the key to success.Gold Summit explores in several favorable gold geological environments in the United States. The company’s main emphasis is Nevada, the third largest gold producing area in the world. It is a mining friendly state with a manageable regulatory framework, excellent infrastructure and year round access. Gold Summit’s geologists have worked there for the past 30 years.
