Gold Summit and Canada Lithium Start Drilling for Lithium Brine in Nevada

Gold Summit Corporation (TSX VENTURE:GSM) ("GSM") or the "Company"), operator on
behalf of joint venture partner Canada Lithium Corp. ("CLQ") reports that
drilling at the Paymaster property commenced Wednesday, September 23, 2009.


Initially, one hole is planned to a depth of approximately 400 metres to explore
for potential lithium brine in subsurface aquifers. The site was selected on the
basis of geochemical and geophysical data collected and interpreted over the
past year.


Canada Lithium Corp. holds a 75% interest in the joint venture and Gold Summit
Corporation holds 25% (news release March 9, 2009).


Field work and data studies are underway in a number of other basins in
southwest Nevada, selected from field and office studies undertaken in 2008.
This work is expected to lead to the selection of other drill targets.


GSM explores primarily in Nevada for high grade gold and gold/silver deposits
that would support underground, low cash cost operations. GSM's primary
properties cover four Tertiary epithermal vein districts. All have drill ready
targets defined by surface work, most with bonanza grades in outcrops or
discovery drill holes.


At the recently acquired Sugarloaf Peak property, work on a SURPAC generated 3D
model and resource estimate is complete and form the basis for a National
Instrument 43-101 report to be issued shortly. The 3D model developed for the
deposit will guide new drilling to add to the resource.


The Company's flagship property, Monte Cristo, contains a NI 43-101 compliant
inferred resource estimate of 331,000 tonnes averaging 6.5 g/t gold. A new
resource evaluation and NI 43-101 report is planned to include drilling results
obtained since the completion of the first report in 2006. High grade shoots
that form the heart of the resource are open down plunge and the Company plans
work to extend these.

following are important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to
differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking
statements: changes in the world wide price of mineral commodities, general
market conditions, risks inherent in mineral exploration, risks associated with
