GSM Gold Summit Corp.

Gold Summit Corporation ("GSM" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: GSM) announces that it has closed the second and final tranche of a non-brokered private placement announced on March 17, 2010 (the "Offering"). The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $150,000 and issued 1,200,000 units at a price of $0.125 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant exercisable for 24 months at $0.20 per share. On closing the second tranche, GSM issued 400,000 units for gross proceeds of $50,000. The common shares and warrants comprising the units issued under the Offering will be subject to a four-month and one day hold period, pursuant to TSX Venture Exchange rules and applicable securities legislation, ending on August 9, 2010.

GSM plans to use the funds to make annual option payments on certain properties, corporate overhead and working capital purposes.

GSM will also continue to offer the private placement announced on February 10, 2010 on a best efforts basis. The Company intends to raise up to $250,000 by issuing up to 1,760,000 units at a price of $0.125 per unit and up to $30,000 by issuing up to 214,285 flow-though units. Each unit will consist of one common share and one common share purchase warrant exercisable for 24 months at $0.20 and each flow-through unit will consist of one common share and one common share purchase warrant exercisable for 24 months at $0.20. The Company has retained the services of Nottingham Consulting Ltd to act as sole lead agent.

The Company plans to use the proceeds to advance scoping studies, including metallurgical test work and initial engineering studies on both the Sugarloaf Peak and Monte Cristo properties while it continues discussions with a number of interested potential joint venture partners. The flow-through proceeds will be used for initial field work on the Tabour Lake and Surprise Lake prospects in Western Ontario.

The private placements are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

GSM currently explores primarily in Nevada for high grade gold and gold/silver deposits that would support underground, low cash cost operations. GSM has recently announced resources at the Monte Cristo and Sugarloaf (Tip Top) properties and holds part of four more Tertiary epithermal vein districts, all with drill ready targets defined by surface work. All GSM properties have potentially economic gold and or silver grades in outcrops or discovery drill holes.

GSM recently filed a new NI 43-101 compliant report announcing a new resource estimate for the McLean Lode located on the Monte Cristo property. At a 0.5 g/t gold cut-off, the inferred resource known as the McLean Lode amounts to 313,335 ounces of gold contained in 3,481,500 tonnes at a grade of 3.14 g/t gold. At a 2.0 g/t gold cut-off, the inferred resource amounts to 237,000 ounces of gold contained in 1,025,700 tonnes at a grade of 7.2 g/t gold.

In addition, the study shows a separate inferred resource of 1,507,000 ounces of silver contained in 1,124,000 tonnes at a grade of 42 g/t silver using a 9 g/t silver cut-off. At a 35 g/t silver cut-off the separate inferred resource is 1,025,000 ounces of silver contained in 396,000 tonnes at a grade of 80 g/t silver. The silver resource is estimated from only part of the drill database. A majority of holes drilled by predecessor explorers were not assayed for silver.

Since publication of the new resource, nine groups of potential partners/investors are evaluating the McLean Lode and the Monte Cristo Property, including six that have entered into confidentiality agreements.

The Sugarloaf Peak Prospect in Esmeralda County, Nevada, includes the old Tip Top Mine, the subject of a NI 43-101 compliant report, filed November 10, 2009. The Tip Top Mine has indicated and inferred resources of 646,234 tonnes grading 2.9 g/t gold at a 1 g/t gold cut off. Results from column leach metallurgical tests of 6 samples, approximately 40 kg each, collected in and around the old Tip Top adit show very encouraging recoveries. The resource outcrops and exploitation by open pit-heap leach operation is under evaluation with potential partners.

In north-west Ontario, Gold Summit recently optioned the Tabour Lake gold prospect in the Kenora mining district which includes the Sakoose Gold mine. According to OGS records, shallow mining there in the early 1900's produced 8,000 tonnes of ore at a grade of 14 g/t gold. Diamond drilling by Venturex Resources in 1988 intersected high grade gold down plunge to the west, including drilled intersections of 6.8 m assaying 9.3 g/t gold and 1.1 m assaying 48 g/t gold recorded in assessment files. Most of the other holes in the same programme intersected intervals of 3 g/t gold or more. Further drilling down plunge to the west is clearly warranted.
