Dear Mr. Chaffee:
I have acted as counsel to Summa Metals Corp. (the "Company"), in connection
with an offering of 510,000 Units of the Company's securities, pursuant to a
Registration Statement on Form SE-2 ("Registration Statement") You have
requested my opinion as to certain matters in connection with the post effective
amendment to the Registration Statement.
In my capacity as counsel to the Company, I have examined and am familiar with
the originals or copies, the authenticity of which have been established to my
satisfaction, of all documents, corporate records and other instruments I have
deemed necessary to express the opinions hereinafter set forth.
Based on the foregoing and upon consideration of applicable law, it is my
opinion that the 510,000 Units to be issued by the Company, will, upon payment
for and delivery of the Units in the manner described in the Registration
Statement, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
Furthermore, I consent to the use of this opinion as an Exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours
