Vancouver, B.C. February 22, 2022: Sun Summit Minerals Corp. (TSX-V: SMN; OTCQB: SMREF) is pleased to report drill results and the discovery of additional near-surface zones of bulk-tonnage style gold-silver-zinc mineralization from its fall 2021 exploration program on its Buck Property, central B.C.

Highlights

• Discovery of new zone of near-surface, breccia-hosted, gold-silver-zinc mineralization along strike to the northwest (e.g., 1.85 g/t gold equivalent (AuEq)² over 25 metres including 8.78 g/t AuEq over 3.9 metres; BK21-060).
• Discovery of additional bulk-tonnage style gold-silver-zinc mineralization in step-out holes to the west of previous drilling (e.g., 0.61 g/t AuEq over 155.8 metres including 1.37 g/t AuEq over 16.3 metres; BK21-059).
• Confirmation of continuity of gold-silver-zinc mineralization in the previously untested area between the historic Horseshoe and Trench zones (e.g., 1.11 g/t AuEq over 51.0 metres including 1.81 g/t AuEq over 13.6 metres; BK21-048).
• These new and open areas will be tested in the current drill program; crews have mobilized to site and the drill is turning.
• Recalculation of gold equivalent (AuEq) including zinc has yielded significant increases in values which has the potential to be a significant economic contributor to the overall metal value of the property (see news release February 8, 2022). Examples of significant recalculated³ intervals (Table 2) are:

Sharyn Alexander, Sun Summit’s President, stated: “The results from our remaining holes from the recent drill program are highly encouraging and are in line with what we expected to see from the fall 2021 program. This phase of drilling was designed on a grid pattern with consistent orientations to model different mineralized zones, and particularly, to tie together structural and lithological trends. Modelling is ongoing but the drilling succeeded in building a more coherent picture of the Buck Main mineralized system. All holes intersected mineralized zones and reinforces our belief that the system is much larger and has more continuity and consistency than was previously recognized. Two new areas of mineralization have been discovered in previously untested areas to the west and north-west, which enhances the exploration upside at Buck Main. We are very optimistic about the potential for higher grade intercepts in the current drill phase which will target higher grade zones and continue to expand the footprint of this complex hydrothermal system.”

Figure 2. Stacked section showing selected highlights

Sun Summit completed a 32 hole diamond drill program for 10,327 metres in late 2021, with initial results of the first eight holes reported on January 5, 2022. All holes were drilled along northeast-southwest oriented sections with holes drilled with orientations to the northeast at varying inclination. The program of grid-based drilling allowed the systematic generation of cross-sections across the Buck Main target, and was successful at building the geological and structural model to further define the potential of the system for gold, silver and zinc mineralization. Modelling is ongoing and is being refined as we receive new data from the current drill program..

Results from the reported 24 holes across the western side of Buck Main confirm the presence of near-surface, disseminated gold-silver-zinc mineralization and local vein-hosted high-grade gold and silver mineralization. The focus going forward will be to continue to investigate the limits of the hydrothermal system while testing new structural targets and areas peripheral to Buck Main, with the goal of defining higher-grade zones.

A series of holes tested the northwest-trending structural contact between sedimentary and volcaniclastic rocks with dacitic lapilli tuffs and breccias (Figure 2). The holes were designed to expand the footprint of breccia-hosted gold-silver-zinc mineralization associated with pyrite + sphalerite cemented, clast-rich hydrothermal breccias (e.g., 46 metres of 1.59 g/t AuEq* in BK20-006, 40 metres of 1.84 g/t AuEq* in BK20-012, and 45 metres of 2.36 g/t AuEq* in BK21-017; Table 2).

Hole BK21-060 was collared approximately 180 metres northwest of BK21-017 and intersected 1.85 g/t AuEq* (0.92 g/t Au, 12.33 g/t Ag, 1.2% Zn) over 25 metres including 8.78 g/t AuEq* (4.81 g/t Au, 26.03 g/t Ag, 5.6% Zn) over 3.9 metres associated with sphalerite-cemented hydrothermal breccias.

Hole BK21-060 was drilled in an area with limited outcrop and no historic drilling and was designed based on visual observations and updated modelling from preceding holes (e.g., BK21-048 and 058). This zone of strong gold-silver-zinc mineralization is open in all directions and represents a priority target for further testing in the current drill program.

Holes BK21-059 and 065 tested the westernmost limit of the system and were drilled from the same section (Figure 2). The holes were set up 150 metres apart and collared in andesitic volcanic rocks and sedimentary rocks which transitioned to strongly altered and mineralized dacitic lapilli tuffs. Both holes intersected broad zones of gold-silver-zinc mineralization hosted in lapilli tuffs (e.g., 0.61 g/t AuEq* over 155.8 metres, including 1.37 g/t AuEq* over 16.3 metres and 1.05 g/t AuEq* over 17.0 metres, from surface in BK21-059; and 0.55 g/t AuEq* over 146.9 metres, including 1.10 g/t AuEq* over 13.7 metres and 0.84 g/t AuEq* over 32.9 metres in BK21-065). These volcaniclastic breccias are lithologically similar to dacitic lapilli tuffs found over 400 metres to the east in the historic Horseshoe zone, host to long intervals of gold-silver-zinc mineralization (e.g., 409 metres of 0.87 g/t AuEq* in BK21-033). The presence of these rocks in the westernmost holes represents a positive development in the exploration potential of the Buck Main target and opens the area to the west for expansion.

* Intervals are downhole core lengths. True widths are unknown. Intervals recalculated using zinc concentration and the previously stated formula. Gold and silver values were previously reported on January 5, 2021 and May 11, 2021

Twenty four holes are reported with selected highlights shown in Table 1.

Table 1. Assay Results

Zinc Mineralization

Widespread sphalerite (zinc-sulfide) mineralization was intersected in all drill holes across the property. Preliminary metallurgical test work suggests zinc is highly recoverable using conventional methods (see news release January 8, 2022) and may contribute favourably to future economic studies. As a result, gold equivalent (AuEq) values were recalculated for selected holes including zinc, which significantly increased previously reported grades (Table 2).

Quality Assurance and Quality Control

All sample assay results have been monitored through the Company’s quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) program. Drill core was sawn in half at Sun Summit’s core logging and processing facility in Houston, B.C. Half of the core was sampled and shipped in sealed and secure bags to the ALS Global preparation facilities in Kamloops, Langley or North Vancouver, B.C. Samples were prepared using standard preparation procedures. Following sample preparation, the pulps were sent to the ALS Global analytical laboratory in North Vancouver, B.C. for analysis.

Core samples were analyzed for 48 elements by ICP-MS on a 0.25 gram sample using a four acid digestion (method ME-MS61L). Gold was analyzed by fire assay on a 30 gram sample with an AAS finish (method Au-AA23). Samples with >10 parts per million (ppm) gold were re-analyzed by fire assay using a gravimetric finish on a 30 gram sample. Samples with >100 ppm silver were re-analyzed using a four acid digestion and ICP-AES finish. Samples with >10,000 ppm zinc were re-analysed using a four acid digestion and ICP-AES finish. ALS Global is registered to ISO / IEC 17025:2017 accreditations for laboratory procedures.

In addition to ALS Global laboratory QA/QC protocols, Sun Summit implements an internal QA/QC program that includes the insertion of duplicates, standards and blanks into the sample stream.

Recalculated AuEq assumes metal prices of $1700/oz Au, $22/oz Ag and $1.60/lbs Zn using the equation: AuEq (AgZn) (g/t) = ((Au(g/t)*$Au/oz*0.032151) + (Ag(g/t)*$Ag/oz*0.032151) + (Zn%*$Zn/lbs*22.0462)) / ($Au/oz*0.032151)

Retirement of COO-Mexico and Extension of Stock Options

Following the Company’s sale of all of its Mexican mineral interests to Green Earth Metals Inc. announced February 15, 2022, the Company has eliminated the position of COO-Mexico held by Christian Grijalva. Stock options held by him which would have otherwise expired have been extended, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, to October 2, 2022 (66,667 shares at $0.54 each), January 31, 2023 (133,333 shares at $0.555 each) and February 14, 2023 (200,000 shares at $0.555 each). The Company thanks Christian for his years of service as its representative in Mexico.

Vancouver, B.C. February 8th, 2022: Sun Summit Minerals Corp. (TSX-V: SMN; OTCQB: SMREF) is pleased to announce the potential importance of zinc to future economic analyses at the Buck Property, central B.C. Zinc will be included in future gold-equivalent calculations as it has potential to be a significant economic contributor to the metal budget of the property. The results for the remaining drill holes from the fall 2021 drill program will be released very shortly.

Highlights

• Preliminary metallurgical test work from two ~10 metre composite samples from two drill holes suggests zinc is highly recoverable using conventional methods and may contribute favourably to future economic studies.
• Preliminary data from the ongoing studies suggests gold responds well to conventional gravity and cyanide leach testing (up to 94% recovery using a primary grind size k80 of 60 µm).
• Complete gold and silver metallurgical test work is ongoing with more tests required to fully evaluate recoveries.
• Including zinc in gold-equivalent (AuEq) calculations provides a significant increase in gold-equivalent grades. Recalculation of previously reported select intervals from broad zones of bulk tonnage-style mineralization are as follows:
• 241 metres of 1.25 g/t AuEq (0.69 g/t Au, 5.14 g/t Ag, 0.77% Zn), including 45 metres of 2.36 g/t AuEq (1.64 g/t Au, 7.69 g/t Ag and 0.96% Zn) in BK21-017.
• 409 metres of 0.87 g/t AuEq (0.45 g/t Au, 3.97 g/t Ag and 0.57% Zn), including 265 metres of 1.10 g/t AuEq (0.58 g/t Au, 5.12 g/t Ag and 0.71% Zn) in BK21-033.
• 187 metres of 1.02 g/t AuEq (0.67 g/t Au, 4.4 g/t Ag and 0.46% Zn), including 54 metres of 1.91 g/t AuEq (1.02 g/t Au, 10.80 g/t Ag and 1.17% Zn) in BK21-032.

Note. Intervals were reported on July 6th, 2021. AuEq assumes metal prices of $1700/oz Au, $22/oz Ag and $1.60/lbs Zn using the equation: AuEq(g/t) = ((Au(g/t)*$Au/oz*0.032151)+(Ag(g/t)*$Ag/oz*0.032151)+(Zn%*$Zn/lbs*22.0462))/($Au/oz*0.032151). Metallurgical test work is ongoing and results are preliminary (see below).

"We initiated exploration-stage metallurgical studies to better understand the potential recoveries of gold, silver and zinc at Buck. While the final results for gold and silver are pending, preliminary data indicate zinc is highly recoverable using standard industry methods," stated Sharyn Alexander, President of Sun Summit.

"All styles of intermediate sulfidation, epithermal-related gold mineralization at Buck include base metals, however, zinc is the most prolific. Some areas assay greater than 7% zinc in sphalerite-cemented breccias, and ~0.5 to 1% zinc is common throughout broad zones of disseminated, bulk-tonnage style mineralization. We knew zinc was ubiquitous in the Buck mineralized zones but were hesitant to include it in gold-equivalent calculations until we could confirm it was highly recoverable with standard processing techniques. Now, with these preliminary metallurgical results for zinc, we are confident it would be an important contributor to the metal budget of the system in a potential mining scenario. For that reason, we will include zinc in AuEq calculations for drill intervals going forward."

Preliminary Metallurgical Test Work

Based on the presence of widespread sphalerite (zinc-sulfide) mineralization intersected in all drill holes across the property (e.g., news releases dated June 10th, 2021 and November 30th, 2021), it was considered important to better understand zinc as a possible economic contributor to the metal budget of the property. Three composite samples considered representative of the three main styles of gold mineralization were submitted to Base Metallurgical Labs (Kamloops) for preliminary bench-scale studies. A 14 metre (~48 kg) composite sample of sphalerite-cemented breccias from hole BK21-032, and a 14 metre (~50 kg) composite sample of lapilli tuff with disseminated sphalerite from hole BK20-010, were specifically selected for zinc-flotation studies.

These two composite samples responded well to zinc flotation tests using a primary grind size k80 of 100 µm, recovering up to 98% of the zinc to a 10% rougher mass concentrate that assayed 26% zinc. Further development testing, including cleaning and primary grind optimization, will be required to take full advantage of zinc together with gold and silver.

Preliminary data from the ongoing studies suggests gold responds well to conventional gravity and cyanide leach testing (up to 94% recovery using a primary grind size k80 of 60 µm). Additional test work is ongoing to fully evaluate and determine silver recoveries.

Vancouver, B.C. January 25^th, 2022: Sun Summit Minerals Corp. (TSX-V: SMN; OTCQB: SMREF) is pleased to announce that exploration drilling is set to recommence at its 100% controlled Buck Property, central British Columbia. The exploration program will be designed to expand on the Buck Main epithermal gold discovery which remains open in all directions and at depth.

Highlights

• Crews are mobilizing: One drill rig is currently on site and the crew has commenced mobilization.
• Expanded program will test new targets: The first drillholes will build on the significant results from previous programs focused on testing new targets within Buck Main and the limits of the mineralized hydrothermal footprint.
• Property-wide geophysical survey: Plans are underway to commence a property-wide VTEM geophysical survey, which will help define additional targets on the property, some of which could be coincidental with recently discovered geochemical anomalies.

“We are very eager to get the drill rig turning again.” Sharyn Alexander, Sun Summit’s President, stated. “Even without receiving all assays back from the lab from our most recent program, we are excited with what we’re seeing so far. Drill results at Buck Main continue to return significant gold intercepts from surface, adding bulk-tonnage mineralization as well as high grade ‘sweeteners’. We look forward to the months ahead as we move this program forward and continue to share results from our previous exploration and drilling.”

Drill Program

The upcoming drilling is designed to follow-up the 10,327 metre drill program, which targeted high-grade and bulk tonnage-style gold mineralization at Buck Main (see news release dated November 30^th, 2021). From that program, a total of eight holes have been released including significant intercepts of high-grade gold mineralization (e.g., 11.4 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 3.0 metres including 31.3 g/t gold over 1.0 metres; BK21-035) and continuous bulk tonnage-style gold mineralization (e.g., 0.68 g/t gold over 175.3 metres including 1.16 g/t gold over 53.8 metres; BK21-038) (see news release dated January 5^th, 2022). Additional assay results will be released shortly as they are received and analyzed.

After pausing the drill program at the end of 2021 to receive assays, the Company is now ramping-up activities to investigate previously untested targets, as well as test an emerging broad zone of breccia-hosted sulfide mineralization identified in the last drill program (see news release dated November 30^th, 2021). The drill program could increase in scope to be substantially larger than the program just completed.

The Buck Main mineralized footprint is approximately 900 by 950 metres and remains open in all directions and at depth. A total of 66 diamond drill holes totalling ~24,000 metres have been completed at Buck since the project was optioned in July 2019. Significant intercepts from previous drill programs include:

• High-grade vein-hosted gold mineralization
  • 31.6 g/t gold over 4.0 metres including 246 g/t gold over 0.5 metres; BK21-020 (see news release dated May 11th, 2021)
  • 5.86 g/t gold over 17.0 metres including 23.05 g/t gold over 3.0 metres; BK20-012 (see news release dated January 5th, 2021)
• Broad zones of near-surface bulk tonnage-style gold mineralization
  • 0.78 g/t gold over 186 metres including 1.07 g/t gold over 109 metres; BK21-017 (see news release dated May 11th, 2021)
  • 0.71 g/t gold over 187.0 metres including 1.02 g/t gold over 87.1 metres; BK21-033 (see news release dated July 6th, 2021)

Property-Wide VTEM Survey

The Company has begun planning a ~2,000 line kilometre Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM) survey. The results of the geophysical survey will help outline and prioritize additional exploration targets, hopefully being coincidental with recently discovered geochemical anomalies within the 33,000 hectare tenure package. Surface sample results from the extensive field program conducted across the Buck Property last year will be released shortly, after the Sun Summit technical team completes its analysis and evaluation.

Vancouver, B.C. January 5^th, 2022: Sun Summit Minerals Corp. (TSX-V: SMN; OTCQB: SMREF) is pleased to report initial drill results from its fall 2021 exploration program on its Buck Property, central B.C. Assays from eight of the 32 completed holes are reported.

Highlights

• Multiple intervals of high-grade, vein-hosted gold mineralization intersected in numerous holes:
  • 11.65 grams/tonne (g/t) gold equivalent (AuEq) over 3.0 metres, including 31.79 g/t AuEq over 1.0 metre within 0.86 g/t AuEq over 60.8 metres (BK21-035).
  • 14.86 g/t AuEq over 1.1 metres within 1.04 g/t AuEq over 21.9 metres (BK21-041)
  • 10.03 g/t AuEq over 2.9 metres, including 16.05 g/t AuEq over 1.5 metres within 4.82 g/t AuEq over 6.8 metres (BK21-043)
  • These high-grade intervals are within broader zones of near-surface disseminated mineralization.
  • Results confirm the presence of widespread high-grade gold mineralization as previously reported (e.g., BK20-012: 5.89 g/t AuEq over 17.0 metres including 23.10 g/t AuEq over 3.0 metres, and BK21-020: 31.75 g/t AuEq over 4.0 metres including 247 g/t AuEq over 0.5 metres).

• Note: Intervals are downhole core lengths. True widths are unknown. AuEq based on a 75:1 silver to gold ratio

• Multiple intervals of near-surface, disseminated and breccia-hosted mineralization confirm strong continuity of bulk-tonnage style mineralization:
  • 0.96 g/t AuEq over 102.0 metres, including 1.94 g/t AuEq over 18.0 metres and including 1.15 g/t AuEq over 19.3 metres (BK21-036)
  • 0.74 g/t AuEq over 175.3 metres, including 1.25 g/t AuEq over 53.8 metres (BK21-038)
  • Results confirm strong grade continuity on the eastern side of Buck Main over a strike length of at least 300 metres. These bulk-tonnage intercepts are similar to previously released results (e.g., BK21-017: 1.15 g/t AuEq over 109 metres, and BK21-033: 1.13 g/t AuEq over 87.1 metres).

• Note: Intervals are downhole core lengths. True widths are unknown. AuEq based on a 75:1 silver to gold ratio.

Bob Willis, Sun Summit’s CEO, stated: “This first batch of results from our 32 hole program across the Buck Main area, continues to demonstrate the growing scale of the system as every hole hit varying styles and grades of gold and silver mineralization from top to bottom. The presence of broad zones of near surface disseminated bulk-tonnage style mineralization together with local high-grade zones provide significant encouragement to support an aggressive 2022 drilling campaign. These higher grade zones should contribute favourably to future mineral resource and economic studies. The Buck Main mineralized system remains open in all directions.”

Drill Program

Holes reported in this release are from two key areas, formerly known as the eastern ‘Horseshoe’ and the western ‘Trench’ zones. Based on a new structural model (see news release dated November 30^th, 2021), holes were drilled along northeast-southwest oriented sections with all holes drilled to the northeast at varying dips (Figure 1). This drill plan allowed for the systematic generation of cross sections across the Buck Main target to better define lithological and structural controls. Based on this modelling, it is apparent that lithology played a key role in the distribution of disseminated mineralization versus vein-hosted, high-grade mineralization. The results from the remaining 24 holes will be used to further demonstrate continuity of mineralization within and between different styles of mineralization across the Buck Main area.

Western Buck Main

Five holes (BK21-035, 039, 041, 042, and 043) were drilled on the western side of Buck Main (Figure 1) targeting high-grade, structurally controlled gold mineralization as well as broad zones of disseminated gold mineralization. Holes were designed to follow-up previously reported significant high-grade gold intercepts (e.g., BK20-012: 5.89 g/t AuEq over 17.0 metres including 23.10 g/t AuEq over 3.0 metres, and BK21-020: 31.75 g/t AuEq over 4.0 metres including 247 g/t AuEq over 0.5 metres; see news releases dated January 5^th, 2021, and May 11^th, 2021) hosted in a sequence of andesites and sedimentary rocks cut by northwest-trending quartz-feldspar porphyritic dykes. Higher-grade intervals (Table 1) are hosted in local quartz + carbonate + sulfide veins associated with broad zones of quartz + sericite + pyrite alteration.

2. Calculations are uncut and length-weighted using a 0.10 g/t gold cutoff.
3. Intervals are downhole core lengths. True widths are unknown.

Holes BK21-035, 039 and 041 were drilled from the same section (4575; Figure 2). Hole BK21-035 intersected numerous zones of gold mineralization (Table 1), highlighted by a broad 60.8 metre interval of 0.86 g/t AuEq, including 3.0 metres of 11.65 g/t AuEq. Hole BK21-041, collared 80 metres north of BK21-035, intersected a broad 21.9 metre, near-surface zone of 1.04 g/t AuEq which included 5.6 metres of 3.20 g/t AuEq and including 1.1 metres of 14.86 g/t AuEq. Hole BK21-043, collared 130 metres north of BK21-035 on section 4525, intersected a significant zone of near-surface high-grade gold mineralization comprised of 19.2 metres of 1.92 g/t AuEq including 2.9 metres of 10.03 g/t AuEq. Holes BK21-039 and 042, on sections 4575 and 4550 respectively, both bottomed in mineralization highlighted by multiple broad zones of near-surface gold mineralization (e.g., 0.41 g/t AuEq over 52.8 metres including 8.76 g/t AuEq over 0.9 metres from 9.5 metres down hole, BK21-039; Table 1).

Results from the first set of holes from the western side of Buck Main confirm the presence of near-surface, high-grade gold and silver mineralization and support the significant potential of this area. Holes from neighboring sections, to be released once all assays are received from the lab, will further inform the extent and continuity of vein-hosted high-grade gold mineralization.

Figure 2. Cross section 4575 showing selected highlights

Eastern Buck Main

Three holes (BK21-036, 038 and 040) were drilled on the eastern side of Buck Main (Figure 1) and targeted near-surface, bulk-tonnage gold mineralization. The holes were designed to follow-up and confirm continuity of previously reported long intervals of breccia-hosted and disseminated gold and silver mineralization associated with pyrite + sphalerite hosted in dacite-lapilli tuffs and dacite clast-rich hydrothermal breccias (e.g., BK21-017; 1.15 g/t AuEq over 109 metres, and BK21-033; 1.13 g/t AuEq over 87.1 metres; see news release dated July 6^th, 2021).

Table 2. Assay results – Eastern Buck Main

1. AuEq (gold equivalent) based on a 75:1 silver to gold (Ag:Au) ratio.
2. Calculations are uncut and length-weighted using a 0.10 g/t gold cutoff.
3. Intervals are downhole core lengths. True widths are unknown.

Hole BK21-036, collared on section 4850 (Figure 3), intersected a broad zone of gold and silver mineralization comprised of 102 metres of 0.96 g/t AuEq including 18 metres of 1.94 g/t AuEq. Hole BK21-038, collared 85 metres to the north of BK21-036 on section 4800 (Figure 3), was mineralized over 405 metres (Table 1) highlighted by a broad and continuous zone of gold and silver mineralization: 175.3 metres of 0.74 g/t AuEq including 22.5 metres of 2.04 g/t AuEq. Hole BK21-040, collared 40 metres north of BK21-038 on the same section (Figure 3), intersected multiple zones of gold and silver mineralization over 303.8 metres, highlighted by 232.6 metres of 0.38 g/t AuEq.

Figure 3. Cross section 4800 showing selected highlights

Results from the first set of holes from the eastern side of Buck Main, together with previously reported intercepts (see news release dated July 6^th, 2021), demonstrate strong disseminated and breccia-hosted gold mineralization continuity across a northwest strike-length of at least 300 metres. These holes represent the easternmost holes drilled during this phase, whereas subsequent holes, the results of which will be announced shortly, tested the northwest trending structural contact between sedimentary and volcaniclastic rocks with dacitic lapilli tuffs and breccias (see news release dated November 30^th, 2021). The contact remains open and represents a key structure for future drill testing.

Quality Assurance and Quality Control

All sample assay results have been monitored through the Company’s quality assurance / quality control (QA / QC) program. Drill core was sawn in half at Sun Summit’s core logging and processing facility in Houston, B.C. Half of the core was sampled and shipped in sealed and secure bags to the ALS Global preparation facilities in Kamloops, Langley or North Vancouver, B.C. Samples were prepared using standard preparation procedures. Following sample preparation, the pulps were sent to the ALS Global analytical laboratory in North Vancouver, B.C. for analysis.

Core samples were analyzed for 48 elements by ICP-MS on a 0.25 gram sample using a four acid digestion (method ME-MS61L). Gold was analyzed by fire assay on a 30 gram sample with an AAS finish (method Au-AA23). Samples with >10 parts per million (ppm) gold were re-analyzed by fire assay using a gravimetric finish on a 30 gram sample.  Samples with >100 ppm silver  were re-analyzed using a four acid digestion and ICP-AES finish. Samples with >10,000 ppm zinc were re-analysed using a four acid digestion and ICP-AES finish. ALS Global is registered to ISO / IEC 17025:2017 accreditations for laboratory procedures.

In addition to ALS Global laboratory QA / QC protocols, Sun Summit implements an internal QA / QC program that includes the insertion of duplicates, standards and blanks into the sample stream.
