Sun Peak Metals (TSXV:PEAK, OTCQB:SUNPF) has discovered several new gold-rich VMS gossans at its Shire Project in Ethiopia. Key findings include:
- Gabat VMS gossan samples yielded up to 29.2 g/t gold and 118.0 g/t silver, with 6 samples returning over 5 g/t Au and 3 over 20 g/t Au
- Dermi VMS Target samples returned up to 7.32 g/t Au and 109.8 g/t Ag
- Ground Time-Domain Electro-Magnetic (TDEM) surveys are ongoing at the Meli Trend and Anguda North Target
The company has identified multiple promising VMS targets through detailed geological mapping and rock sampling, including the 1.5km-long Gabat VMS Target and several targets in the Terer, Nefasit, and Meli License areas. Drilling will commence after TDEM results interpretation.

Sun Peak Metals has completed its 2024 initial drill program at the Shire Project in Ethiopia. The company drilled 24 diamond drill holes on the Terer and Hamlo VMS targets, totaling 5,236 meters. Core samples have been submitted, with the first batch of results expected in July. The Terer target saw 12 holes drilled (2,660m), and Hamlo had another 12 holes (2,576m). Exploration efforts will continue through the rainy season, with drilling set to resume in Q4 2024. The Anguda VMS System, part of a larger VMS cluster, remains the focus. Quality control samples were managed by ALS Laboratory in Ethiopia and Ireland.
Sun Peak Metals (TSXV:PEAK, OTCQB:SUNPF) has announced favorable assay results from its 2020 drill program, suspended due to the Tigray regional conflict in Ethiopia. The program involved 11 holes at the Meli Main Target, 2 at the Meli Far-West, and 10 at the Anguda Southern Limb. Key findings include ML-013 intercepting 8.89 meters averaging 2.22% copper, 2.76 g/t gold, and 31.8 g/t silver, and MW-001 intercepting 15.84 meters averaging 1.90 g/t gold. These results indicate high-grade mineralization and extend the known VMS zones. The current drill program, announced in April 2024, aims to explore further within the Anguda VMS System, with initial assay results expected by June 2024.
CEO Greg Davis expressed satisfaction with the retrieval of intact drill cores and the confirmation of large VMS systems. VP of Exploration David Daoud noted the significant copper, gold, silver, and zinc content, highlighting the potential for large VMS deposits similar to those in the Arabian-Nubian shield.
