    High grade uranium vanadium mineralisation outcrops at Andersons and now
    consistent widths and high grades down to 300 metres depth have been
    encountered in Summit's drill holes into the mineralised system. The deposit
    remains open along strike and at depth.

    Drill hole details and mineralised intersections in this report are as
    follows:

    ANDERSONS Uranium Target

    Andersons uranium deposit is located 15 kilometres east of Mount Isa city on
    EPM14047.

    Summit has now drilled forty four diamond and eight RCP holes at Andersons
    totalling 9,270 metres of drilling. Assay results are reported for nine holes
    (ANDDH15 to ANDDH24).

    Andersons Mineralised Intersections reported are:

    Cut grade for reported intersections is 112ppmU3O8 (0.25lb/t or 0.011%) with
    internal dilution up to 4 metres of <112ppmU3O8.

    These reported drilling results are consistent with previous drilling of the
    deposit. All holes intersected uranium mineralised sediments and conglomerate
    with mineralised sections ranging from 2 to 51 metres down hole.

    SUMMARY

    Drilling is ongoing with two drill rigs operating around the clock for Summit
    in the Mount Isa area.

    Summit's drilling at Andersons has confirmed previous drilling on the deposit
    and a resource estimate is now being modelled, calculated and independently
    audited for the deposit. This JORC compliant resource estimate for Andersons
    will be calculated and released on receipt of the assays for holes ANDDH1 to
    ANDDH30. We have today been advised the assays for the remaining 6 holes will
    be reported in the next 10 days.

    Further holes are being drilled, or are planned for, Summit's Valhalla,
    Andersons, Skal, Bikini, Mirrioola and Watta uranium deposits and prospects
    at Mount Isa. The objective is to have sufficient density of drilling in each
    deposit to enable resource estimates to be calculated.

    The Western, Mixabe, Tjilpa, Red Alpha, Warwai, Rich John and Drum uranium
    targets will also be drilled when rigs become available.

    The uranium vanadium mineralisation in Summit's Mount Isa uranium deposits
    and targets drilled to date is hosted in iron oxide copper gold ("IOCG")
    hematite altered sediments and felspar breccias. A common metallurgical
    treatment process to recover the uranium, vanadium and copper metals present
    in all Summit's Mount Isa uranium deposits is being developed. Metallurgical
    testwork is now underway to establish a standard metal recovery process for
    all deposits.

    Deposit and prospect locations and details of the holes drilled and reported
    for Andersons are shown on the attached map and table.

    Uranium oxide spot price is now US$90 a pound.
