Lead-Zinc and Gold Intersected At Jersey-Emerald Property

VANCOUVER, BC - Sultan Minerals Inc. reported that seventeen additional diamond drill-holes have intersected and expanded a zone of lead-zinc mineralization on its 100% owned Jersey-Emerald molybdenum-tungsten Property in southern British Columbia.
Final assay results are now available for 21 diamond drill holes, JS07-01 through JS07-21, that test a zone of stratiform zinc mineralization discovered by trenching in September 2007. The mineralization was initially confirmed by four diamond drill holes, JS07-01 through JS07-04, reported on February 11, 2008.
Highlights of the 21 holes reported here were hole JS-07-01 which assayed 10.53% zinc and 3.02% lead across 5.0 feet within a 60.0 foot thick zone that assayed 3.35% zinc and 0.73% lead, hole JS-07-17 which assayed 7.69% zinc across 5.9 feet within an 85.0 foot thick zone that assayed 1.46% zinc and hole JS-07-08 which assayed 5.22% zinc across 20.0 feet within a 60.0 foot thick zone that assayed 1.33% zinc.
The 21 drill holes test a 1,000 foot by 1,000 foot area centred on the north end of the historic Jersey Lead-Zinc Mine. The results suggest that several horizons of significant zinc and lead mineralization occur within a thick, zinc-rich horizon that stretches east and west from the north end of the historic Jersey Mine workings. Lead and silver concentrations are seen to increase to the north and west, while zinc concentrations increase to the south and east.
In addition to the lead-zinc mineralization an unexpected gold intersection was encountered in hole JS-07-15. This hole assayed 6.16 g/t gold across a 24.4 foot core length from 22.6 to 47.0 feet. The intersection included a 10.0 foot section from 37.0 to 47.0 feet that assayed 10.43 g/t gold. Additional diamond drilling is required to determine the potential of this zone.
