The drilling program, scheduled to commence around 1 April, aims to evaluate diamond content of Soapy Bore kimberlite and test other targets including a source for diamondiferous kimberlite float at Target 5.
The Cue Diamond project is located in the Murchison Mining District 80km north-west of the town of Cue in Western Australia.
Sunrise Resources executive chairman Patrick Cheetham said: "Following our recent fundraising, we are progressing quickly with our planned exploration programmes and I am pleased to be announcing the start of drilling at the Cue Diamond Project in Australia and the positive sampling results from the Strike Copper Project in Nevada where follow-up work is now being planned."
In addition to holding applications for two gold exploration projects in Western Australia, Sunrise has an active project program to generate new exploration projects in Australia and Nevada, US.
