Key Property

Cherry Hill Gold Mine ? Yreka, California

The Cherry Hill Gold Mine property is 100% wholly owned by Silver Sun and covers approximately 125 acres, located eight miles from Yreka in Siskiyou County, Northern California. Cherry Hill is a high grade?underground mesothermal gold-quartz lode mine that first began production as early as?1892 and has operated intermittently over the past 120 years.

In 2011, Lucky Boy Resources LLC (a wholly owned subsidiary of Silver Sun Resource?Corporation) acquired 100 percent ownership of the Cherry Hill Property. Upon?acquisition, five portals were re-opened and the underground workings rehabilitated so?that the mine could be brought up to Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA)?standards in anticipation of production.

In May 2012, the Company received approval from the United States Forest Service?(USFS) to continue with the current Plan of Operations, which is valid until the year 2023?using permits and licenses currently in place. Silver Sun plans to apply to the USFS to?broaden the Plan of Operations at Cherry Hill to include the entire property for which a?full Environmental Assessment will be required.

In October of 2012, Silver Sun commenced commercial production at Cherry Hill from?the existing two-year old workings that access the Queen Vein from the west on level 4?(4360 feet) where ore has been blocked out between the 3rd and 4th levels. Metallurgical testing indicates?recoveries of up to 95 percent for gold and 87 percent for silver.

Silver Sun has a milling contract with a private gravity and flotation circuit mill?approximately 82 miles from the mine in Grants Pass, Oregon. The Company has?increased the production rate to 1,000 tons per month. In October 2012, 1,000 tons of?mineralized material was trucked to the mill for processing. Upon completion, the gravity?and floatation circuit concentrates will be delivered to Just Refiners of Sparks, Nevada,?which will then assay the concentrates for gold content.

Silver Sun Resources also plans to open portal Q2 for rehabilitation?work and sampling.?An underground drill program is slated for 2013 with the purpose of proving the Queen?Vein continues to depth. Once the current two year mine plan to extract 1,200 feet of vein from the Q4 level is complete, the company plans on developing the Q5 level, which should provide additional multiple years of mine life.
